Chapter 1888
Luca knew it was time for her to speak.
Even though Luke was there, she was not willing to talk but she still got to carry out Abel's order.
Luca smiled and looked at Dr. Albus. "You're welcome, Dr. Albus. The credit for this medicationresearch still goes to your research team's effort. All I did was solve a tiny problem. Those crucial dataand all analyses were still completed by you guys. I'm not involved in those."
Dr. Albus' eye glittered with admiration when he heard her reply. She did not hog all the glory.
'Very good. She knew a lot more about the rules in the career field compared to when she first entered.'
Luke got even more mad when he saw Luca smiling at Dr. Albus.
'She smiled so sweetly to a professor who is not related to her but to me, she could just blurt out such amean statement.'
Luke suddenly got up and announced, "The meeting had ended."
Dr. Albus' smile froze and looked at Luke. "Mr. Crawford..."
"For the remaining stuff, just follow the protocol will do." Luke had a very awful look and after saying it,he left immediately.
Luca look at Luke's back figure which was leaving the scene and sighed within her. 'I think I shouldprepare myself and pack my luggage to move back to my condominium.'
Since she had blurted everything, it would not be appropriate for her to continue staying in the villa.
"Mr. Crawford, about the celebration feast." Dr. Albus followed up with Luke, astonished.
"You guys go ahead." After saying it, Luke walked to the elevator and repeatedly pressed on thebutton, as if the elevator had triggered him.
Dr. Albus dared not speak a word and watched Luke entering the elevator. Then, the door of theelevator closed before he slowly returned to the meeting room.
A few of the professors got up and asked when they saw Dr. Albus return, "Dr. Albus, what's wrong withMr. Crawford?"
"I don't know either. Did I say anything wrong during my presentation?" Dr. Albus asked them.
The few professors shook their heads.
Dr. Albus looked at Luca. "Dr. Craw, do you know why Mr. Crawford is in such a state? Did I dosomething wrong?"
"It's not your fault, Dr. Albus. I think Mr. Crawford has been having a foul mood since he was in theheadquarters. I guess something went wrong with the project," Luca said.
Her response calmed Dr. Albus. "As long the problem is not with me. It's getting late, let's head over tothe hotel."
"Hotel?" Luca let out a suspicious tone.
"Yea, Dr. Craw. Let's go together. Today's the celebration feast for Dr. Albus and his research team. Mohas already booked a room in the hotel," said one of the professors.
Luca thought about it. It was only normal for them to organize a celebration feast, but she decided notto attend. She thought of returning before Luke did and left after she had packed her luggage.
"Dear professors, I'm sorry but I still got work to do. I really don't have any spare time." Luca rejectedtheir invitation.
"Dr. Craw, it's just for a night..." one of the professors persuaded.
"Yea."novelbin
Luca felt troubled.
Mo smiled and explained on behalf of Luca, "Dear professors, stop troubling Dr. Craw. Right now, shestill got to be in charge of the project at the headquarters. The project is on a tight schedule, and shehopes she would have a clone to carry out the job. How is she going to have the spare time?"
"That's right, it's very hectic." Luca had a helpless look on her face.
Dr. Albus heard it and did not pester. "Oh right, I almost forgot. How about this Dr. Craw, when you'refree, let me treat you to a meal next time? Though, you have to come when I do. "
"I'll go for sure. Thank you, Dr. Albus." Luca felt guilty when she saw Dr. Albus being so steady.
If she was right, Mr. Bailey would apply for the copyright much earlier than Dr. Albus.
Then, Dr. Albus would lose everything and be faced with the crisis of being fired. In the world ofresearch, Dr. Albus' future would be ruined if it was involving copying or plagiarism.
And as the mastermind of it, Luca could only softly apologize deep within her.
Dr. Albus nodded.
Luca picked up the office bag and followed them out. When they arrived at the elevator, she asked, "Ohright, Dr. Albus, earlier did Mr. Crawford go upstairs or downstairs?"
Dr. Albus recalled. "I think the elevator was sent downstairs. I think Mr. Crawford had gone back to theheadquarters to continue with work."
"Yea." Luca prayed hard that she would not bump into Luke when she arrived downstairs.
A few professors wanted to head upstairs to pack up before leaving. Hence, Luca did not follow thembut took the elevator alone and headed downstairs.
She walked out of the building of Watson. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw there was no carparking at the entrance.
She guessed perhaps Luke was livid and returned to T Corporation to settle his work.
Luca headed to the place to wait for a taxi and coincidentally she received a call from Tina.
"Dr. Craw, is the meeting over there over?" Tina asked.
"Yeah."
"You should go straight home once the meeting is over. You don't have to return to headquarters," Tinasaid.
"Alright, but what's happening?" Luca felt something was off.
"It's that the worker at the front counter called me, saying the man, who harassed you in the afternoon,is again at the entrance. This time, he didn't come in but squatted at the roadside, waiting for you. Withthat, the securities could do nothing to him," Tina said. In the afternoon on that day, the incident thatoccurred at the front counter was chaotic. Hence, they called up Luca's office.
However, no one picked up. Hence, they called to inform Tina about it, having her inform Luca.
"Is it Enoch? Alright, I got it." Luca was helpless. Because of Enoch, it led to her relationship with Lukebecame very stiff.
Initially, she could live the days off with satisfaction and she could also put up an act to stay with Lukeand took care of the kids.
Currently, it was because of Enoch that those peaceful days were destroyed.
Luca sincerely hated that man and even had the thought of taking him down.
"That man is just like a pervert guy. You got to be careful. In the future whenever possible, please takethe rear entrance or come in from the car park area. You never know when he is going to go crazy..."Tina hid in the pantry and reminded.
"Alright, thank you, Tina," Luca said with much gratitude.
"You're welcome, I'll resume my work then." After Tina said it, she quickly hung up the call.
Luca stood at the roadside with a dark expression. She would not go around offending others if thatperson had not offended her in the first place.
However, at that moment, her peaceful life was destroyed by Enoch. Luca guessed that it might bebecause of Enoch that made Queenie develop suspicions.
'Since he's not letting me off the hook, then please don't blame me for what's going to happen.'
Looking at the empty taxi that was coming to her, Luca then stretched out her hand to stop the cab.
After entering the cab, she sent a message to Amur. [Are you free, Amur? I want you to help me checkon someone.]
After a few seconds, Amur replied. [Yes, I am. Who do you want me to check on?]
