Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle



Chapter 3308 He's Definitely Better-looking Than Luke!

For the first time, Gordan realized that being the center of attention was not all it was

cracked up to be.

Like now, in front of him sat a mug of bitter medicine. He hated bitter stuff, including herbal medicine.

However, everyone was watching him now.

He knew if he did not drink it, there would be no getting out of this. Worse still, people might think he was disrespecting Luca's effort.

Gordon braced himself and picked up the mug, only to feel the heat burning his fingers. With an awkward chuckle, he said, "This stuff's a bit hot. How about I let it cool for a few minutes?"

Really, he just needed a few minutes to mentally prepare himself.

Luca slightly frowned and gently reminded him, "Mr. Norton, this medicine has to be taken while it's hot. The ingredients are too valuable to waste the effects."

Gordan furrowed his brows together. Was she telling him to drink it now?

However, it was not just bitter. It was burning hot!

Tommy, noticing his hesitation, flashed an innocent grin and asked, "Uncle Gordan, can't you take the bitterness?"

Gordan did not know what to say to that.

"A grown man shouldn't be afraid of bitter things! My dad never is. He's super tough!"

Tommy proudly glanced at Luke.

Gordan forced a couple of awkward laughs. "Afraid of bitterness? Me? I've had way worse than this. Come on now."

"Then, drink it!" Tommy chimed in.

"Ha! The kid's right.Go ahead and drink it." Gale gave Tommy a thumbs-up, clearly enjoying the drama.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Gordan cleared his throat, deciding it was best to just chug it in one go.

He brought the mug to his lips, and the overwhelming smell of the bitter medicine that was way stronger than before hit his nose.

He almost gagged.

Desperate, he turned to look to Luke, silently pleading for rescue.

Nevertheless, Luke just stared back without any expression on his face. It was like he was

urging him to drink up.

With no way out, Gordan held his breath and took a big gulp.

Instantly, a wave of indescribable bitterness shot through his entire body, and he could not help but cough.

Watching his face twist in agony, Gale burst out laughing. "Haha! Gordan, you look like you're about to face your doom! It can't be that bad!"

Gordan did not reply. From years of experience, he knew with bitter stuff like this, the faster you finished it, the better. Dragging it out would just make it worse.

After another deep breath, he downed the entire mug. It took him a good five minutes to recover before his face slowly returned to normal.

Gordan muttered, "I'm sure there's some leftovers in the kitchen. Wanna give it a try?"

"I'm not the one who needs it. Why would I take it?" Gale shook his head quickly. He glanced at the now-empty mug and chuckled. "It probably wasn't that bad. You didn't leave a drop!" "I should've left a little and dumped it straight into your mouth." Gordan rolled his eyes.

Aunt Neile came out holding a piece of candy and handed it to him. "Mr. Norton, the medicine is bitter. How about having candy?"

"Thank you, Aunt Neile. You're a lifesaver," replied Gordan, almost on the verge of tears.

He knew Luca was making him suffer on purpose, and was probably because of Vivian. Of course, Luke was siding with her. As for Gale, that guy just loved watching the drama unfold. Gordan secretly let out a sigh and wondered why his life was so hard.

"Mr. Norton, let me take the mug from you." Aunt Neile was amused by his theatrics and took the empty mug back to the kitchen.

With the medicine consumed, the entertainment was over.

Luca turned to Vivian and asked, "Vivian, could you help out in the kitchen for a bit?"

"Sure, no problem." Vivian let out a sigh of relief and disappeared into the kitchen.

Luca looked over at Luke and said, "I'll head to the kitchen too. I have some more work to do."

"Alright." Luke nodded, then turned to the guys. "Dinner's still gonna take a while. How about a quick game of pool?"

Gale's eyes lit up. "Hell yeah, let's go."

The pool table was upstairs, so the three men headed up.

Tommy said in a low voice, "I've never seen Daddy play pool before. Can he even play?"

Lanie, cool as ever, replied, "Dad's a beast at pool."

Tommy's eyes sparkled. "Really? I wanna go watch it!"

"Not until you finish your homework, Tommy," Rainie reminded him.

Realizing he still had unfinished homework, Tommy quickly buried his head in his work.

An hour later, dinner was ready.

Tommy ran upstairs, where the guys had already played a few rounds of pool.

Gale and Gordan were starting to get a little competitive because out of all the games they had played, they only managed to win once.

Luke had won every other round.

"Daddy, Uncle Gale, Uncle Gordan, dinner's ready!" Tommy called out.

Since Luke was winning so much, Gale was feeling a bit salty. He thought they had to win at least one more game. He was not bothered that this was not his own house. He just blurted out, "You guys eat first. We're gonna keep playing a couple more rounds."

Tommy turned to look to Luke for a reaction.

Luke just patted his son's head and replied with a smile, "If they don't want to eat, I will.

Let's go."

Gale grabbed his arm, not letting him leave. "Come on, boss. You win and then bail? That's not how it works!"

Luke replied, "You guys can keep playing, but I'm going to have dinner. Luca cooked today."

The moment he mentioned Luca's cooking, Gale came to his senses.

Right, it was Luca who cooked today.

They were guests, after all. They had to show some respect.

Hence, both Gale and Gordan put down their pool cues and headed downstairs.

Gordan was not ready to back down. "Let's hit a few more rounds after dinner! I refuse to

believe I can't beat you!"

Luke replied indifferently, "I've got work to take care of."

"Seriously? You win a few and suddenly you're done? Come on, boss, that's just lame." Gale was rendered speechless. Gale and Gordan had not even recovered from their previous

losses!

"Daddy." Tommy, holding onto Luke as they made their way down the stairs, looked up at

him.

"Yes?" asked Luke.

"Are you really good at pool?" Tommy asked with curiosity.

"Well, I'm just okay, but I definitely beat them a bunch of times," replied Luke when he had downplayed his achievements in front of Gordan and Gale just earlier.

"Wow, Daddy, you're awesome!" exclaimed Tommy with his eyes wide with admiration.

Listening to their back-and-forth, Gale and Gordan exchanged puzzled glances.

Were they really that bad?

Both of them fell into deep thought, wondering what they could possibly be better at than

Luke.

Suddenly, Gale chimed in, "You know, we're probably better at fighting than the boss. Thinking like that makes it a bit easier to accept, right?"

"Right..." Gordan felt helpless as he glanced at the father and son. Besides being a little

better than Luke at fighting, what else did he have on him?

Then, it hit him. He was definitely better-looking than Luke!

That was a fact!

Feeling pretty pleased with himself, Gordan perked up.

When Luca saw them walk into the dining room, she smiled gently and said, "Hurry up and

eat. I didn't

't prepare a ton of fancy dishes today. I hope you don't mind."

"Dr. Craw, your cooking is a hundred times better than Rain's! I'm in for a treat!" replied

Gale.
