Female Novel
Chapter 1858
If she were Bianca, she would have a lot of advice and words of yearning to tell him. She would askhim to focus on dealing with the matter at hand.
However, she was Luca, not Bianca.
Even though there were thousands of words in her heart, she could not say anything because she wasin no position to.
Luca thought about it and replied, "Okay."
She then put down her phone and got down to work.
Until she got off work, Luke did not text her.
Luca guessed that he was busy.
After all, they were not involved in any way or form. There was no need for him to update her on hisschedule all the time.
Seeing that it was time to get off work, Luca packed up some documents and prepared to leave theoffice.
After Alya placed the translated documents in Jason's office, she was surprised to see Luca headingoff. "Dr. Craw, are you done for the day?"
"Yes." Luca nodded. Alya had taken over most of the workload. Since she was done with her part andconsidering that Nina would be over for dinner, she wanted to get some fresh groceries to cook forNina.
Alya nodded thoughtfully.
Luca turned around and left.
Alya watched her clock out and hurried back to the secretary's office.
Everyone in the secretary's office was working overtime.
The day before she came back, she was briefed about all of the company's current projects. It was aspecial period, and almost everyone in the company had to work overtime.
Maybe, the only person who could get off work on time was Luca.
To Alya, Luca's punctual departure from work was classified as special treatment.
"Tina, I just saw that Dr. Craw get off work. Is she allowed to get off work so early?" Alya could not helpherself from gossiping with Tina.
"Anyone can leave the office after they finish their work," Tina said while she dealt with the documentsshe needed for the next day.
"How can she finish her work so fast? I still have half of the documents that need to be translated. Howis it possible for her to finish so soon..." Alya felt that Luca had not finished her work.
Tina coldly glanced at the documents on her desk and reminded her, saying, "When we assigned thetasks, you took the initiative to take over most of the documents. Naturally, your workload is heavier. Dr.Craw has fewer documents to work on, so, of course, it would take less time for her to finish her work."
She knew that Alya was just pissed that Luca left work on time.
Alya muttered, "Dr. Craw is different from us. I don't dare to give her so much work."
"That's true. She's not a translator, you are. This is within your job scope. If this project wasn't thaturgent, she would've handed you all of the documents and gone home even earlier. Alya, it's a good
thing that someone is sharing your workload. Hurry up and finish what you have left for the day. Thesedocuments are needed for tomorrow." Tina reminded her mercilessly.
Luca was not a translator to begin with. It was not easy for her to deal with so many projects at thesame time.
Alya did not know how to respond to that and went back to her seat. She complained about what hadhappened to the translation department.
However, everyone was very busy and no one responded to her complaints.
Alya missed her children who were waiting at home. She looked at the documents and knew that shecould not reunite with her kids until she was done translating them.
With no other choice, she continued to bury her head in the documents.
Luca drove out from the underground parking lot of T Corporation. When she passed the entrance of TCorporation, she noticed an Audi was parked on the side of the road not far away.
She frowned. Her car drove by but she did not see the license plate number. However, the Audi wasvery similar to the one that Enoch drove the day before...
'It can't be him..'
All she felt was annoyed and angry when she realized that Enoch was likely involved in the reason whyQueenie was watching her at the entrance of the villa the other day.
Fortunately, after she blocked him on all platforms, Enoch did not reach out to her through othermeans.
At least he did not continue to bother her.
Luca drove to the supermarket nearby, bought some groceries, and returned to the villa.
Nina had not come over yet and Luca estimated that she would be there in the next ten minutes or so.After she greeted the children, she hurriedly went into the kitchen and started to prepare dinner.novelbin
20 minutes later, Nina arrived. The maid went and got her. She drove the car in smoothly.
Tommy was happy when he saw Nina, but at the same time, he was also a little worried.
"Aunt Nina, are you coming over to spend the night again?" He remembered that Luca had her fullattention on Nina the last time she came to spend the night here. The three of them could only stare atLuca's tightly closed bedroom door. They were not allowed to enter.
Nina knew that Tommy was worried that she would take up Luca's time and could not help but pinch hisface. "Don't worry, I'll only be here for a while. I won't be spending the night here."
"That's wonderful! Aunt Nina, please have a seat." Tommy cheerfully invited Nina to sit down.
"Cheeky little one, were you worried that I'd spend the night?" Nina sat on the sofa with a big smile onher face. She took Tommy's hand and pretended to be serious.
Tommy shook his head immediately and replied, "No, no."
"How could you lie at such a young age? When your Daddy comes back, I'll tell him that you lied tome." Nina held back her smile and squeezed his cheek. It was fleshy and felt good.
"Aunt Nina, I'm sorry." Tommy hurriedly acted cutely.
"Okay, don't worry. I'm just here to have a meal and watch you for a few hours. I'll head home afterthat," Nina said.
Rainie asked, "Aunt Nina, you're here to keep watch of us?"
"Yeah, Luca is going to go out later. She's worried about leaving you alone, so she asked me to takecare of you. Why? Do you not want me here?" Nina hugged Rainie, lowered her head, and kissed hercheek sweetly.
Rainie shook her head and said, "No, we welcome you to our home anytime. It's just that... Ms. Lucadidn't tell us anything, so we're a little confused."
"Is that so? Maybe she planned to tell you later? Is she in the kitchen now?" Nina asked.
"Yes."
"Hurry up and do your homework. I'll go to the kitchen and see if I can help." Nina urged the kids.
She stood up, walked into the kitchen, and saw that Luca was busy in the kitchen.
"Do you need help?" she asked.
Luca turned around, saw Nina, and smiled slightly as she replied, "No need. The meal will be readysoon."
"Let me wash the dishes for you." Nina did not want to freeload, so she walked over and washed thedirty dishes.
Luca did not stop her.
"By the way, where are you going tonight?" Nina asked.
Luca was cooking and stopped when she heard Nina's question. She made up an excuse, saying,"Something happened to my brother, so I have to go back and check on him."
