Female Novel
Chapter 2534
The safe box Luke bought for Luca back then had the most advanced safe lock in the whole world. Itcame with fingerprint recognition and iris recognition technology. No one would be able to unlock thesafe box except Luca.
Besides, if someone tried to break or unlock the safe box, it would sound an alarm. The relevantresearch data showed that the person might need a day and a night to disassemble it even if the powerwas cut off and they tried to disassemble it violently.
Hence, the safe box was more advanced than the safe boxes in Watson Biopharmaceuticals.
Rhett widened his eyes and said unbelievably, “You actually asked someone to move the safe boxhere?"
“Yes. I've already informed Mr. Crawford." Luca nodded. Before she asked Warren to move the safebox here, she had informed Luke about it.
Luke told her that she could do anything she wanted.
"Dr. Craw, I remember that safe box isn't available in our country yet. I didn't expect Mr. Crawford topermit you to move it here," Rhett said with disbelief.
All confidential research data were kept in the safe box where it was safe and sound due to TCorporation's strong protective measures.
“Watson Biopharmaceuticals is starting to gain some profits now. Our research is one of the profitableprojects of the company. That's why Mr. Crawford allowed me to do so," explained Luca.
She said that although she refused to believe that was the reason why Luke let her take the safe box.
After all, there was a high chance that it was for her sake that Luke agreed to let her take the safe box.However, Luca had to come up with something to fool Rhett. Otherwise, the others would suspectsomething was going on between her and Luke.
Luca glanced at the time. It was time to get off work. She promised the kids that she would makehamburgers for them tonight. Thus, she said, “Rhett, follow me back to my office first. Open all theboxes and put the documents in the safe box."
“Okay." Rhett nodded and agreed with her.
The two of them returned to the office.
Luca handed Rhett the knife cutter and said, “Open the boxes. I'll place the categorized documents intothe safe box."
"Alright, Dr. Craw," replied Rhett. The documents were arranged properly when they were placed in theboxes. Hence, Luca only had to put them into the safe box just like that.
The two of them worked together, and it only took them five minutes to take out all the documents inthe boxes and place them in the safe box.
Luca reset the lock of the safe box and closed it.
“Okay. It's getting late. You may get off work early today," Luca said to Rhett.
“Sure, Dr. Craw. I'm leaving now." The moment Rhett finished his sentence, there was a knock onLuca's office door.
“Who is it?" Luca frowned. It could not be those professors again.
“Hello, Dr. Craw. I'm the general manager's secretary. Is Mr. Link here?" There came a woman's voicefrom outside the door.
“Come in," said Luca. She stood beside her office desk as she watched the door being pushed open. Awoman stood outside the door.
Luca recognized the woman at the door. She was the secretary who had taken the meeting minutes inthe meeting room just now.
“Dr. Craw, the general manager wishes to see Mr. Link," said the secretary.
Luca knew Rhett was on her side, so she was not worried the general manager would secretly playdirty tricks on the people around her.
Moreover, Luca would not have to worry about Rhett being persuaded by the general manager. Afterall, she had already figured out what kind of person Rhett was.
Besides, Luca did not rely too much on Rhett when it came to doing research. Thus, she was notworried.
“Okay, Dr. Craw. I shall head to his office first." Rhett nodded. He knew the general manager must beup to no good when he was looking for him now.
However, Rhett was not worried either. The general manager was not the one who would be informinghim whether he was fired or not.
Luca nodded. She picked up the briefcase beside her and got ready to get off work.
The secretary led Rhett up the stairs. After they entered the elevator, there were only two of them as itwas time to get off work. Their elevator was ascending.
“I heard that you've been learning from Dr. Craw since you entered the company, right?" The secretaryasked.
“Um, yes." Rhett nodded.novelbin
The secretary sized Rhett up and asked another question, “I saw a safe box in Dr. Craw's office justnow. Did she bring it here herself?"
“Dr. Craw has been using the safe box since she was stationed at T Corporation. That's why shebrought it here," answered Rhett. It was not something to be kept a secret either.
“Oh, no wonder I thought that it didn't look like it belonged to the company." The secretary nodded.
She had been working for the general manager, and she could smell that something fishy was goingon. Still, it would be better for her to keep quiet. After all, she had to keep her job too. Therefore, shedid everything she was instructed to do that was not against the company's rules and regulations.
For instance, the general manager wanted to enter Luca's office this afternoon, but he had no accessto that floor. Hence, he looked for her to find a way to get to the floor.
The secretary had no choice but to look for Mo and talk to her about work matters. She asked her tomake an exception for her to get onto the floor where Luca's office was. That was how she let thegeneral manager in.
"Yeah." Rhett was not a talkative person. Besides, he had been working under Luca at T Corporationfor quite some time. He was not familiar with the people here. That was why he had been quiet.
The secretary led him to the general manager’s office.
"General Manager, Mr. Link is here." The secretary knocked on the general manager’s office door.
"Come in." The general manager put down his phone and smiled at Rhett.
Rhett could not help but become cautious when he saw the smile on his face.
If Luca encountered some situations, she would be able to mention Luke’s name to protect herself.However, Rhett was in no position. He did not have the status to do that. He could only be careful andprevent himself from falling into the trap.
"General Manager, may I know why you’re looking for me?" Rhett walked into the office and stoodopposite the office desk cautiously.
"Mr. Link, take a seat." The general manager lifted his hand and signaled Rhett to sit opposite him.
Rhett pulled the chair and sat down.
The general manager looked at the secretary and nodded.
The secretary knew what he meant. She immediately closed the door.
That was when the general manager started to draw Rhett in. "Mr. Link, I heard that you’ve been Dr.Craw’s assistant from the moment the project first began. You’ve been working for her and learningfrom her, right?"
"Yes. I entered the company when Watson Biopharmaceuticals was just established. After that, we hadto choose to become a professor's assistant, and I chose Dr. Craw." Rhett nodded. Rhett never thoughthe had picked the wrong person from the very beginning.
The general manager had heard about it too. He sized up the young man, who was sitting in front ofhim, as he pondered.
If it were someone else, they would have chosen an experienced professor to learn from for the sake offuture project rewards instead of a young professor like Luca.
Rhett’s choice was different from the others.
It turned out that he picked the right person.
It was a risky and bold choice, but it was beneficial at the same time.
"Well, you made the right choice. Dr. Craw's research project is doing well. It's launching soon. Yourresearch team will receive a large bonus when the time comes."
