Chapter 1842

Jason nodded and walked out of the office.

When Jason reached the elevator, he realized Luke's elevator doors were still open. He walked towardit curiously. Then, Luke spoke and said, "Come in."

Jason nodded and entered the elevator.

The elevator doors closed slowly.

Jason lifted his head to look at the floor numbers that were constantly going up. Although he had beenworking with Luke for so many years, he would still feel a little pressured to be in the same elevator ashim.

Luke was his boss, after all...

“Is there anything unusual with Luca lately?”

Jason was startled for a moment, then he felt guilty all of a sudden. Did Luke find out about it? No onewas spreading the news that Luca had gone on a blind date, though. How did he know about it? Was itbecause of that bouquet?

“Boss, what do you mean by anything unusual?" Jason blinked his eyes.

"Is she keeping in touch with any other man?" Luke went straight to the point. He noticed Luca's phonehad been constantly ringing recently. Endless message notifications and phone calls had come in lastnight. His instinct told him that the one looking for Luca was not a woman.

"I'm not so sure about that. Aren't you supposed to know that?" Jason decided to play dumb. After all,even if Luke found out about it, he could tell him that he had not seen anything.

Luke shot him a cold glance without saying anything.

Luke noticed that Luca had not been herself lately and that was why he intended to ask Jason. WhenJason claimed that he had no idea about it, Luke replied, “I suspect Luca has been talking to someoneelse these days. Keep an eye on her for me."

Luca would only spend time in the office and her home. She had been living a simple life without goinganywhere. If she was talking to someone else, then she must have met him in the office.

Hence, Luke had to make Jason his informer.

Jason let out a sigh in his heart. The whole company belonged to Luke, but he wanted him to keep aneye on Luca.

"Alright, Boss." There was no way Jason could reject Luke.

The elevator doors opened slowly, and Luke strode out of the elevator with his long legs. If Lukehappened to find out which bastard was eyeing the woman he loved, he would crush him into pieces.

After the meeting ended, Luca returned to her office to continue with her work. Some parts of the biddocument did not need to be redrafted, so she could still use the translated content.

When it was time to get off work, she packed her stuff and prepared to leave.

Before Luca reached the elevator, she received a message from Tommy.

The child was asking her if she would be getting off work on time today.

Luca smiled sweetly. The child had always been clingy. He would ask Luca if she was getting off workon time every day after he came back from school.

Even though Luca had used another identity to return to his side, he was still as needy as usual.

Luca replied to him: [I'm already getting off work. I'm on my way back home.]

After a while, Tommy replied: [Then I'll wait for you to come home.]

Luca smiled. She put her phone back into her pocket and waited for the elevator.

Tina came over and noticed that Luca was smiling. She asked in a gossipy manner, “Dr. Craw, look athow sweet your smile is. Are you going on a date?"

"No. I'm not seeing anyone." Luca shook her head, turned around, and glanced around her.Fortunately, no one else was there.

"Don't worry. Hardly anyone knows that you went on a blind date the last time." Tina gave her amischievous smile. "You were smiling so sweetly that I thought you were going on a date with someguy."

"No, I'm not. I'm going home." Luca shook her head. "And I've already rejected that guy."

"Really?" Tina gave Luca a thumbs up when she heard that. "That's very decisive of you. If you don'tlike him, it's better to reject him quickly so that you can stop wasting each other's time."

"Yes. I rejected him in front of the matchmaker as well. I made myself very clear, so I feel so muchmore relieved now," said Luca. It was also considered an explanation for Tina. After all, Tina knew shehad gone on a blind date.

"That's great." Tina agreed.

As the elevator reached the floor, the doors opened slowly. Luca and Tina entered the elevatortogether. After Tina pressed the button to go to the first floor, she asked, "Did you drive here?"

"I don't have a car," answered Luca.

Tina nodded and pressed the button to close the doors.

Luca asked, "Getting off so early today?"novelbin

"Yes. Something came up, so I informed Mr. Doyle that I'll be getting off work on time today. The othersare still working in the secretary's office," replied Tina. The elevator went down all the way to the firstfloor without stopping on another floor.

Luca was secretly exclaiming. It seemed like the policy changes regarding the European project hadcaused everyone to work overtime. That was why only a few people were getting off work on time.

After they reached the first floor, both of them walked out of the elevator side by side. They wereplanning to take the same path as they were both hailing a ride home.

Luca noticed that Enoch was standing not far away when they walked out of the entrance. She pausedand frowned.

Tina noticed Luca's gestures and asked, "What's wrong?"

“That man..." Luca looked at Enoch, who was not far away from her. He had already noticed Luca andwas walking toward her.

"Don't tell me he's the one who went on a blind date with you?" Tina was a smart woman. Shespeculated that he was Luca's blind date when she saw such a scene and also Luca's reaction.

"That's him." Luca nodded as she watched Enoch walk toward her. Impatience had begun to surge inher heart again.

After sending flowers to her office, Enoch was now standing outside her office waiting for her.

Had she not made herself clear enough?!

Why did Enoch not seem to understand her intentions? He even came to her office to stop her at theentrance. If someone else saw this, they would certainly misunderstand.

"Didn't you clarify things? Why is he still here." Tina was startled. She planned to stay beside Luca.

Tina had met stalkers before. She knew how terrifying it could be. It was enough to frighten someone todeath. She had to accompany Luca before this man went mad and hurt Luca.

"I did make things clear, but it looks like he didn't quite understand what I meant." Luca felt helpless asshe watched Enoch walk toward her. Luca took a few steps back. She was secretly rejoicing that mostof the employees were working overtime today. Otherwise, many would have witnessed such a scene.

"Luca, you're off work." Enoch walked toward her, glanced at Tina, and looked at Luca again. Hesmiled brightly at her.

Luca frowned. If it were not because the person in front of her was associated with Jack, she wouldhave greeted him with a punch.

After all, when someone could not understand what she meant, punching them would make themrealize it quicker.

"Mr. Campbell, what's the matter?" Luca's tone was cold and distant.

"I came to pick you up from work," answered Enoch.

"Mr. Campbell, I think you must've understood what I said today. Things will never work out betweenus. Please leave." Luca took a deep breath, trying to watch her manners.

What was so great about her? How dare Enoch hound her here?

"I know you don't like me, but everyone has the right to pursue someone. You don't like me, but thatdoesn't stop me from liking you." Enoch insisted.

Tina was suppressing the urge to scold him when she heard what he said.

Was there something wrong with his brain?

"You're already affecting my daily life!" Luca gave Enoch a stern look. She was not joking.
