Chapter 1504
Luke nodded. With their help, there was no need to worry too much about Allison.
Johann touched his chin and smiled cheekily. “Luke, you’re being too polite today, I’m not used to it.”
Luke gave him a cold stare but did not answer. “Get the bill.”
The waiter hurried over to take the banknotes in his hand when he heard Luke.
“Keep the change,” Luke said.
Luca drank the last sip of her coffee and lowered her eyes. Luke’s obsession with cleanliness remainedunchanged. He never asked for change because he felt that the banknotes that others touched weredirty.
Since there was no need for change, that was the tip for the waiter. He happily thanked Luke, “Thankyou, Sir.”
Luke stood up and looked at Luca. “Let’s go up.”
Luca nodded. Since the boss had given an order, she could not continue to laze around in the cafe soshe stood up.
Johann saw that they were leaving and found it pointless to stay there alone, so he stood up as well.Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, “Luke, T Corporation is organizing an employee trip?”
Luke glanced at him and said, “Mm”.
Johann followed behind him and asked curiously, “Where are you traveling to this time?”
Luke did not answer and just walked out.
Johann turned his head and asked Luca, “Dr. Craw, are you going on the trip?”
“Mm, yes, we’re going to B City.” Luca nodded. She felt a little disconsolate when she thought of Amur,who was still in B City.
She was not sure if she could get in contact with Amur after arriving in B City.
“B City? It’s a wonderful place. Why don’t I go with all of you? I’ll pay for my own expenses, of course,”Johann said, “I haven’t traveled for a long time. Dr. Craw, would you mind?”
Before Luca could answer, Luke asked, “What are you going there for?”
“Go on a vacation. What else would I be there for? It’s fun to hang out with friends,” Johann said with asmile.
‘Friend?’
Luke frowned, his gaze sharpened. ‘The friend he’s referring to is Luca?’
“This is a team-building activity for T Corporation. Are you sure anyone has the time to spend withyou?” he asked, isolating the other party with his words.
“Although it’s T Corporation’s employee trip, if I’m on the same high-speed train with all of you, I cantravel with Dr. Craw, right?” Johann looked at Luca with a smile. “There are two acquaintances with meand that’s always better than traveling alone.”
“The company is planning to book out the entire high-speed train,” Luke said as he stepped out of thecafe and walked toward the entrance of T Corporation.
“The entire train?” Johann opened his mouth, startled.
Even if T Corporation had deep pockets, there was no such need to book out the entire high-speedtrain.
‘There are so many seats on the high-speed train. Does he have that many employees in TCorporation? Maybe he does not want others to disturb him… For example, people like myself…’
“Dr. Park, I’m going to work.” Luca looked at him being dumbfounded and could not help but feel a littlesympathetic.
She could tell that Johann did not really want to go on a trip with them. She thought that he was justtrying to tease Luke.
‘Is there any point in using me to tease Luke?’
Luca felt that it was unnecessary but she did not want to say anything. After she bade farewell toJohann, she planned to head back.
When he heard that, Johann smiled and said, “Okay, Dr. Craw. Make sure you get some rest. Let’shave coffee together when you have the time.”
Luke was not too far off, so he raised his brows when he heard what Johann said.
‘Johann is interested in Luca?’
Just as Luke stepped into T Corporation, Luca walked in behind him.
She noticed that no one in the lobby dared to look at them this time.
Luca guessed that Luke must have given some orders. After all, there were a lot of rumors flying thelast time she got out of Luke’s car.
Luke pressed on the button for the exclusive elevator while she walked to the side and waited for thestaff elevator.
The two elevators reached the ground floor at the same time. Luca stepped into the staff elevator andimmediately pressed the button for the door to close as if she was worried that Luke would step in.
The doors of Luke’s elevator also slowly closed.
After the elevator doors on both sides closed, the two receptionists looked at each other. “Did the bossjust come back with Dr. Craw?”
“It seemed so, right?” The other front desk lady said, “Not much time passed between their return. Theyseemed to have returned together.”
“Do you think that the boss is involved with Dr. Craw?” The woman at the front desk muttered. She gotmore suspicious as she thought about the behavior of the two over the last few months.
“I think so. Dr. Craw is beautiful, smart, and a good match for the boss. On top of that, she wasoriginally a researcher in the branch but something happened and the boss vacated one whole floorand transferred her entire team to work in T Corporation. This has never happened before. Doesn’t itmean that there’s something more between them?”
“Yes, Dr. Craw is much better than our boss’ wife.” The woman at the front desk complained. Theladies were both good-looking, considering that those who worked at the front desk were supposed toappear welcoming.
Every time Bianca showed up, they thought of her as a rival in love.
They were speechless but they did not dare to say anything. After all, Bianca was their boss’ wife.
After they had someone else to compare Bianca to, they found that Luca’s attitude was much betterthan Bianca’s.
“Yes, I like Dr. Craw. She looks so cold but she’s gentle and polite to everyone.” The woman at the frontdesk took the initiative to stand on Luca’s side.
“It’s working hours. What are you talking about?” Jason walked in through the side door and scoldedthem after listening to their discussions.
There was no one in the lobby, so they did not lower their voices.
Jason heard every word of what they said.
“Mr. Doyle.” The two receptionists were startled and immediately stood up straight, looking like theywere ready to be scolded.
Jason did not criticize them harshly and just said, “This sort of discussion about the boss is not allowedin the company.”
“Yes.” The two receptionists quickly agreed.
Jason did not say much and took the elevator upstairs.
“He scared me to death! How did Mr. Doyle suddenly appear?” One of the women at the front desk letout a sigh of relief. She was frightened by Jason’s appearance and was worried for a moment therethat she would get fired.
“Let’s not talk about such things in the future. The boss has ears everywhere in the company. It’s not agood idea for them to hear us talking about the boss’ private life,” the other receptionist said.
“Uh-huh.”
…
Two days later.
It was the day when they were departing for T Corporation’s employee trip.
The company had rented a bus to send all the employees to the high-speed train station, so Luca didnot go alone but instead dragged her luggage to the entrance of the company.novelbin
When Jason saw her coming, he walked over to her, handed her a sign, and said, “Dr. Craw, you’ll betaking this bus later.”
