Chapter 1593

Luca felt helpless while she was translating the documents. Her back was aching after she worked onthe sofa for a while.

She could not work in peace being stared at by Luke like this...

Her efficiency was even worse than when she was in Jason's office...

Luca did not dare to say anything. She resisted the urge to look his way even though she knew thatLuke occasionally gazed at her.

After half an hour, her efficiency was greatly reduced.

There was a knock on the door and Luke said, "Come in."

Jason opened the door and walked in with two takeaway boxes in his hand. He did not see Luca whenhe returned to the office and noticed that the laptop and document were missing, so he guessed thatLuca must have gone to Luke's office.

That was why he walked in with the takeaway boxes.

Sure enough, she was there.

"Boss, Dr. Craw, your meals are here." Jason had bought them the same set meal. He handed one ofthem to Luke and left the other on the coffee table.

He did not say anything and just backed out of the office before closing the door. He was thinkingwhether he should inform Tina to not go to the CEO's office even if she had something to talk to Lukeabout.

Luke opened the takeaway box and looked at the woman working on the sofa. She did not seem likeshe wanted to eat.

"Let's eat," he said.

Luca stopped typing on the keyboard, nodded, and put the laptop aside. She picked up the takeawaybox that Jason got her and opened it.

Jason had ordered a set meal for her and it included meatloaf.

Luke did not dislike meatloaf, and Jason was not aware that Luca disliked it.

Luke looked at Luca the moment he saw the meatloaf. She was also looking at him.

"There's meatloaf in here," he said.

Luca nodded and glanced at the takeaway box. Fortunately, there was not too much of it, so sheplanned to just put it aside. After all, there were other dishes that she could eat.

"If you don't want to eat it, give it to me," Luke said.

Luca raised her eyebrows and hesitated for two seconds before standing up and walking in front ofhim. "Mr. Crawford, is this not enough for you?"

"No, it's just that I don't like it when food is wasted." Luke cleared his throat. He had not started eatinghis food yet. He stretched out his hand and moved the meatloaf from Luca's takeaway box into hisown.

Luca watched as he did it and did not stop him.

She did not know that Luke liked meatloaf. However, seeing him place the meatloaf into his takeawaybox, she could not help but wonder if he liked eating meatloaf or he picked it out because he knew she

did not like it.

If it was the latter, then he had become thoughtful. She almost could not recognize him.

Luke would not treat outsiders like this...

Luca was suspicious. When she saw the man's next move, she was sure that it was likely because ofthe latter.

That was because after Luke placed all the meatloaf into his takeaway box, he moved a few pieces ofchicken into her takeaway box.

"Mr. Crawford, this..." Luca's voice was hoarse as she was shocked by his actions.

"I don't like it," Luke said.

Luca watched his movements silently. How could she not know what was on his mind after being hiswife for so many years?

It was not that Luke did not like chicken chop but he did so because he wanted to swap dishes with her.The reason was simple. It was because she did not like meatloaf.

Luca looked at the takeaway box that he pushed over. She was about to take it to the sofa to eat whenhe said, "Eat here. Don't dirty the sofa."

Luca wanted to tell him that she was not a child and she would not dirty the sofa.

However, she had to go along with what the boss wanted.

While they were eating, Luca could feel that Luke would look at her intermittently. She did not knowwhen this change started because there were not many interactions like this prior.

She quickly finished her meal and just wanted to go back to the sofa.

After she ate, Luca packed the takeaway box. She knew that Luke was a clean freak and made sureshe did not drop anything on the table.

She took the box outside and planned to throw it into the trash can outside.

The takeaway box had a strong smell. She remembered that Luke would never throw takeaway boxesin his office's trash can.

Luke watched her walk out with the takeaway box. 'How could someone who's eating here for the firsttime know to do this?'novelbin

Most people would see the trash can in the corner of his office and choose to throw their trash there.This was the first time Luca ate in his office but she chose to throw the box outside.

'No one would believe it if she's not Bianca.'

Luke was a little excited when he thought of that. Even though the DNA test results were not out yet, hehad proved once again that the Luca in front of him was Bianca.

Luca came out with the bag and bumped into Jason.

"Dr. Craw, are you full?" Jason had a cup of coffee in his hand. He glanced behind her and made sureLuke was not there before he dared to chat with her.

"Mm." Luca nodded.

"How's the set meal? It's my first time ordering from them," Jason asked with a smile.

Luca thought about it for a while and decided against telling him that she did not enjoy eating meatloaf.After all, there were not many such opportunities where he would have to order food on her behalf.

"It's delicious. The dishes are rich, the taste is good, and the texture is decent as well," shecommented.

"I'm glad that you like it. All the best for the work that you have left on hand," Jason said with a smileand returned to his office with his coffee.

Luca sighed. She needed the cheering up for the work she had left...

She could not work efficiently being stared at by Luke, coupled with working on the sofa.

Luca glanced at the assistant's office. She, too, wanted to get back to her work...

After a while, Luke also came out with his takeaway box. He saw Luca looking wistfully at the door ofthe assistant's office with a big frown on her face.

‘Why is her expression like that?'

"Cough, cough." Luke cleared his throat.

Luca snapped out of it, nodded at him, and said, "Mr. Crawford, I'm going back to work."

"Mm." Luke nodded and had a slight smile on the corner of his mouth as he watched her hurriedly walkback to the CEO's office.

Although he was not satisfied with her performance, he was willing to accept this tiny flaw.

Luca returned to the sofa, thinking that he would not comment on it.

Sure enough, Luke walked in after he threw away the takeaway box and did not say anything when hesaw her sitting on the sofa working.

Luca put the laptop on the coffee table. She translated a sentence in her head and then typed asentence on the computer. Her efficiency was slow.
