Chapter 1750

The following day.

The people from the moving company were already here when Luca woke up.

She did not have a lot of things with her. There were only two suitcases of clothes and books, as wellas some experiment instruments that were already packed.

The people from the moving company were busy for a while, then they started moving her belongingsinto the truck. One of them asked, “Miss, would you like to follow us to the new address?"

Luca thought Luke must have already made arrangements for her, so she shook her head and said, "Ihave to go to work. Send my things to the address and someone will meet you all there."

"Alright." The worker from the moving company turned around and left.

Luca returned to the apartment. She took the antidote that had been separated from the fridge and putit in her briefcase.

She did not trust the moving company to move them there.

After Luca brought the antidote with her, she distributed the soup into different flasks and left theapartment with them. She turned around and glanced at it the apartment before she closed the door.

She recalled how reluctant she was when she first moved in here. She was finally leaving now, but herheart was full of complicated emotions. She could find the words to describe how she was feeling now.novelbin

Was she reluctant to leave?

Luca looked down, mocking herself for having such feelings. Perhaps it was because she shared somememories here with Luke, so that was why she felt this way...

However, Luca moving out this time made her realize that Luke's partner did not have to be her.

His actions made his intentions clear. She did not agree to his request that time, and now, he was overher.

It was better this way too.

After Luca left the apartment, she hailed a ride and headed to the T Corporation.

It was still early. Jason had yet to reach the office when she entered.

Luca placed the thermos flasks that were filled with soup on the table and began to translate thedocuments. There was a pile of documents that needed to be translated. If she did not hurry up, shewould not be able to translate all the documents in time.

Jason would always pass by Luca's office when he came to work. He popped his head around the doorand curiously took a look when he saw that the lights were switched on. He saw Luca was alreadyworking.

“Good morning, Dr. Craw. Why are you so early?" Jason smiled and greeted her.

“I came earlier than usual today. Mr. Doyle, have you eaten your breakfast?" Luca smiled and asked.After she unconsciously bought the ingredients and made soup, she brought some to the office. Shehad prepared some for him too.

“Not yet. Sue has to accompany the kids to the school to join the charity event today. She didn't havetime to look after me, so I bought breakfast when I was on my way here." Jason lifted the bag he wascarrying in his hands. It was his breakfast.

Luca took one of the thermos flasks out and said, “Mr. Doyle, I made some soup. It can nourish yourbody, especially your lungs. Here's some for you."

Jason was surprised to hear that. He had tried Luca's cooking before and knew that the soup musttaste good.

“Thank you, Dr. Craw. The weather has been cold, so I was thinking of drinking something hot." Hecame forward and took it from her. Then, he noticed there were two flasks left. He asked, “Are these forBoss?"

"Uh..." Luca scratched her head. She thought of telling him that she did not prepare anything for Luke.There were two flasks left. One was for herself, while the other was for Tina.

Jason noticed that she was holding back her words and made a guess. “You didn't prepare some forBoss?"

“I don't think Mr. Crawford needs it." said Luca. After all, if Luke wanted to eat something, he would notstarve no matter where he went.

Jason shook his head and looked at Luca's face. He was wondering if she really had no idea or if shewas doing it on purpose.

“Dr. Craw, I think it'd be better if you prepare another one for Mr. Crawford. Or should I give mine tohim?" Jason said. If Luke knew Luca had prepared soup for Jason but not him, would he not beskinned alive?

Luca listened to him and understood what he meant. Indeed, it was inappropriate if she prepared thingsfor the others but not him.

However, Luke had already made such arrangements. If she prepared his portion, would she not causehim to misunderstand?

Luca pondered for a few seconds. She had no choice but to compromise. She handed her flask to him.“You can give Mr. Crawford this."

“Oh, so you already have his portion. Well, you prepared the soup. Of course, it'd be better if you gaveit to him yourself. Thank you for your soup. I'm going back to my office to work first." Jason carried thethermos flask and left.

Luca could not stop him even when she called out to him. She watched him leave, then she glanced atthe flask of soup. Was she really going to give it to Luke herself?

She shook her head. She lowered her head and continued to translate the documents.

Luke would always pass by Luca's office when he went to his office. He saw Luca working with herhead lowered when he passed by. He remained silent and walked past her office right away.

Before Luca could lift her head, Luke had already walked past her office.

She stood up unconsciously, but she wondered if it was impolite for her to stand here and call out toLuke. Hence, she sat down embarrassingly.

When Luke passed by Jason's office, he saw that Jason was drinking soup. He stopped and asked,“What are you doing?"

"Boss, I'm drinking soup." Jason noticed that Luke was not holding a thermos flask and wondered ifLuca had given him the soup yet.

“Drinking soup early in the morning?" Luke raised his eyebrows. He could smell the fragrance of thesoup from far away.

Jason explained, "Dr. Craw gave it to me. It won't taste as good when it's no longer warm."

Luca prepared soup for Jason?

"Who gave it to you?" Luke asked again.

"Dr. Craw." Jason intentionally pretended that he did not know about Luke's feelings and repeated.

Luke's glance turned cold. Luca would rather make soup for a man who had nothing to do with her thanto prepare some for him? Was he still in her heart?

Jason looked at Luke's gloomy face, held back his laughter, and pretended to put on a confusedexpression on his face. "Boss, do you have any orders?"

Luke left without a word and walked back to his office.

Jason quickly finished the last sip of soup. Luke's expression was too exciting to watch just now. Hebelieved Luke would have taken the soup from him right away if he had not drunk any of it.

"Dr. Craw, hurry up and give him the soup. Otherwise, everyone in the office will be in trouble," hemuttered to himself. He had taken the risk to make Luke upset.

If Luca did not deliver the soup to Luke later, it was not just Jason but even the senior managers wouldalso be in trouble when they attended the meeting later.

Luca finished arranging the meeting minutes yesterday. She printed out the translated documents andbrought them to Jason's office. "Mr. Doyle, these are the arranged documents and translated data.Please take a look."

Jason shot a glance at them before closing them. Then, he said, "I'll keep the meeting minutes. Youshould hand the translated documents to Boss."

Luca heard him and said, "Shouldn't you be handing them to him?"
