Chapter 1756

After breakfast, Luca sat in the office chair and started to work.

Tina came from time to time to hand her the documents to be translated. She said, "Dr. Craw, thedocuments to be translated are increasing. You have to pay attention to your time management. Youcan't delay your work from the lab or have any errors with your translation work."

Luca nodded. The drug research was about to end. If there were no issues during the final experiment,the product could be launched.

Therefore, she often went downstairs to preside over the experimental research.

However, the translation work was also very important. She had to take care of both ends, and herworkload was more than that of other T Corporation employees.

"Thank you for your hard work. Do you want coffee?" Tina asked.

"No, thank you." Luca took a sip from her coffee cup and continued to work.

At noon, the phone rang. It was Amur who called.

Luca quickly answered and asked, "Amur, are you back?"

"Yes, I'm back. Are you at work now?" Amur asked. To come back sooner, he chose to travel by planeinstead of the high-speed rail.

The few hours on the high-speed rail would make him a little bit impatient.

"Yeah, I'm still at work. By the way, I've already cleaned up the apartment. You can just move back in."Luca paused tapping on the keyboard. She thought of keeping him from knowing that she had movedout for the time being.novelbin

She was going to wait until they met for dinner at night.

"I came back by plane and I've put my things in the apartment. It's time for your lunch break. Can youcome down for a meal?" Amur asked.

Luca was shocked. "Are you downstairs?"

"Mm. We haven't had a meal together for some time now," Amur said.

Luca glanced at the time. Even though the whole company was busy, there was still time for lunch. Shesaved the file she was working on and turned off the computer. "I'll come down now." "Okay." Amurwaited on the ground floor of T Corporation and looked at the employees who came out for lunch.

His tall figure and handsome face attracted the attention of many female employees. He was evenapproached by one of them.

He was not interested in them. He kept looking in the direction of the entrance. He could not go inbecause he did not have an access card, so he could only wait there for Luca to come out.

Luca arrived downstairs and saw Amur standing at the entrance. She greeted him with a smile, "You'refinally back!"

Amur stretched out his hand and saw that she just stood there without hugging him. He askedsuspiciously, "Luca, I came back safely. Won't you give me a hug?"

Luca glanced back at the entrance and shook her head. "We're in A City now. It's not the norm forsiblings to hug here."

She was worried that if she was overly enthusiastic, it would be seen by others and reach Luke's ears.

Luca was worried that he would misunderstand the situation.

Disappointment flashed in Amur's eyes. In the past, when they were on the Island of Despair, theyloved each other like a family. Every time he returned from a mission, she would give him a big hug.

Luca noticed his silence, walked over, and patted his shoulder. "Do as the locals do. Come, I'll treat youto lunch."

"Okay." Amur forced a smile. Even if she did not say anything, he knew why she would not hug him.

In Luca's heart, he was just one of her younger brothers and would never be more important than thatman.

Although he overcame all difficulties and completed the mission quickly so that he could return to be byher side and protect her, all Luca could think about was that man.

When Amur saw Luca was leaving, he followed behind.

Tina walked toward them, and her eyes lit up when she saw Amur. She smiled and greeted them, "Dr.Craw, are you going for lunch?"

"Yes." Luca nodded.

Tina looked at Amur curiously and asked, "Who is this?"

"Oh, this is my brother, Amur. Amur, this is my colleague, Tina." Luca introduced them.

"Hello," Amur greeted Tina out of a gentleman's instinct.

"Hello, hello." Tina smiled, her eyes could not hide the admiration she had for him. After all, he was ahandsome guy. Who would not be interested?

"I didn't expect you to have such a handsome brother, Dr. Craw. I won't take more of your time. I'll headoff now." Although she admired Amur, she did not say anything.

Luca watched Tina leave, turned her head, and said to Amur, "There's a nice restaurant nearby. Whydon't we go there for lunch?"

"I'm happy to go along with whatever you pick." Amur had no objection. He liked to eat whatever sheliked to eat.

Luca took Amur to a nearby restaurant and chose a corner spot. Since it was already halfway throughthe lunch break, there were not many people in the restaurant now.

After they placed their order, she checked in on him. "Did the mission go well?" "It went well.Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to return so quickly." Amur nodded. He could only restrain himself whenfacing her.

Luca asked, "Are you injured?"

"It's inevitable to get injured during a mission. Isn't it normal to have a few bruises here and there?"Amur explained with a smile.

"Just a few bruises?" Luca's expression was serious. "Amur, you know I'm asking about the scars onyour body."

Amur shook his head. He was unwilling to have her worry. "I've always been careful."

Luca knew what was going on when she saw how he reacted. She chose to not uncover his lie. Shesaid, "No matter what, I'm glad that you're back. I don't know how many scars you have on your body,but at least you look normal. Amur, I've always thought of you as my younger brother. You have tomake sure you take good care of your body, okay?"

Amur nodded. He remembered everything Luca said to him.

When the meal arrived, Luca said, "Let's eat quickly. I've been quite busy now, so I don't have muchtime to eat."

"Am I disturbing you?" Amur asked suddenly.

Luca paused, shook her head, and said, "I have to eat anyway. By the way, there's something I want totell you. I don't live in the apartment anymore."

"Where do you live, then?" Amur asked. When he went back to the apartment today, he had found itodd as well. The place was empty and did not seem like anyone had lived there for a while.

Luca said, "I've moved into a villa. It's pretty great."

"I'll come to accompany you," Amur said without a second thought.

Luca shook her head and said, "It's inconvenient for you to do so."

"Why?" Amur wondered. They used to live together, so why was it inconvenient now?

"It's Abel's request. Also, the villa was arranged for me by Luke. He made it clear that he doesn't wantother people to move in." Luca confessed. She did not want to hide these things from Amur.
