Female Novel
Chapter 1941
Luca looked in the direction where Luke pointed when he lifted his head and noticed the chair placed ina corner.
She went over and sat on that chair.
Luke stared at her and frowned. 'Is she trying to make me angry on purpose?
'The distance between us is more than three meters...'
Luke said, "if you're going to sit so far away, how are you going to help me with the documents?"
Luca blinked her eyes and got his hint. She immediately got up. She moved the chair to the side of theoffice table. After placing it down gently, she then sat on it again.
Luke was satisfied as the distance between them was now less than a meter.
"Mr. Crawford, I don't have experience dealing with documents.” Luca looked at the huge stack ofdocuments on the table and spoke. It was not that she lacked the experience but it was that she wasafraid she might not handle the task well as it had been quite some time since she last handleddocuments.
"It's very easy. All you have to do is compare these documents." Luke took out two sets of folders andplaced them in front of her. Instantly, she knew what she had to do.
This task was not tough. Luca nodded and opened a folder to start working on it.
Both of them started focusing on the documents in front of them.
After two hours, Luke said, "It's getting late. You should head upstairs to get some rest."
Luca lifted her head and looked at him, surprised. Before she could speak, the folder in her hand wassnatched away. "I can continue to work on it for a while more, Mr. Crawford.”
"Go get some rest," said Luke. He did not actually need her help to settle the documents. He justwanted to seize the chance to be together with her.
Luca saw him not lifting his head and urging her to get some rest. She had no choice but to get up. Sheplaced the chair back in its original spot before leaving.
Luke watched as Luca left, his eyes glittering darkly.
Luca returned upstairs and did not immediately call it a night. She went to the study and took out theanalysis report.
She frowned when she read the report. All she was sure of was that the drug Abel had laced the bladewith contained a microorganism, but she was not familiar with the name. This required furtherinvestigation.
However, it was getting late...
Luca placed the test tube down, and after storing it in a cool environment, she left the study. Sheheaded to the bedroom, planning to brush her teeth before sleeping.
Luke sat in the wheelchair and watched the monitor. He saw Luca coming out from the study andheading back to her bedroom. She showed no intention of entering his bedroom.
'Could it be that she's really not interested in this project?
'If she really isn't interested, I can be sure that Luca has nothing to do with the incident involving Dr.Albus.'
The next day, when Luca got out of bed and came downstairs, she noticed Gale was standing in thehall.
"Nice to meet you, Dr. Craw." Gale waved to Luca politely.
Luca nodded as she knew Gale. However, that was when she was still Bianca. Hence, she did notshow too much familiarity. "Hi, are you here for Mr. Crawford?"
"Yes." Gale nodded. Luke had just woken up and was brushing his teeth. Hence, he waited outside.
Luca initially wanted to ask whether Gale showed up here so early because he had found outsomething. However, after giving it some thought, she decided not to ask.
There were some things that she should not ask as it would make others suspicious.
She did not say anything more and headed to the kitchen.novelbin
Gale looked at her back figure and frowned slightly. Even if one changed one's appearance, one wouldnot be able to change one's temperament.
Besides, after all these years, her figure had not changed much. It was just that she had gottenslimmer. Despite wearing such a thick layer of clothes, he could still make out that her figure was muchbetter than before. He even got to know that her abilities had improved. It could be possible that shehad undergone training, which was why she looked fitter now.
Not only did her looks change but her figure as well.
"You're here?" Luke's voice was heard coming from the side.
Gale retrieved his gaze and turned around to look at the man in the wheelchair. He seemed to be in afoul mood.
'Did he see me looking at Luca?'
Gale had been working under Luke for so many years. Naturally, he knew about Luke'spossessiveness over Luca.
"I got new information, Mr. Crawford," Gale said.
Luke maneuvered the wheelchair and turned around. "Let's go in and talk."
Gale saw this and walked forward to help push the wheelchair into the room.
The maid saw them walking into the room to talk about serious matters and did not continue standing inthe living room. She went to the kitchen. She quickly stepped forward when she noticed that Luca wasalready preparing breakfast. She asked, "Ms. Luca, do you know who that guy is?"
"No idea. I think he's Mr. Crawford's subordinate." Luca was whisking the eggs, not interested in thistopic.
"I think they're talking about something very important." The maid labeled dates on the ingredients thatshe bought today, then put them in the fridge.
"Maybe." Luca lowered her eyes and started the gas stove to heat the pan.
She planned to fry a few eggs for breakfast, and eggs fried over fire tasted the best.
The maid did not say another word after noticing that Luca was not interested in the topic.
In the maid's room, Luke looked at Gale with a sharp gaze. “What did you find?"
Gale was already used to Luke being so serious. "I've checked all the accounts of everyone in WatsonBiopharmaceuticals, including Dr. Craw. I did manage to find out something."
"You found something abnormal?" Luke frowned.
"Yes, it's Dr. Albus' account. Recently, he asked someone from a bank in Switzerland to help him openan account. On the same day itself, a sum of money was transferred into his account. This is thedocument relating to the transfer of money and opening of account." Gale placed the information in hishand on the table.
Luke opened it and looked at it. Then, he asked, "What about the information of the sender?"
"The person who transferred money used a local account, but the holder's identity is foreign. It's asweater company. I've looked into it, and I can be sure that this company is a shell company. Theperson used a very advanced method, and this professional method of transferring money prevents usfrom being able to get any information about their identity. It seems that this person did not only havetheir eye on Dr. Albus' research but they also intentionally purchased his research to go against TCorporation." Gale made a guess.
Luke nodded and kept going through the information given to him by Gale. He kept quiet for half aminute before saying, "For now, don't tell anyone about this. Continue investigating the person whosent the money."
"Alright. But Mr. Crawford, why haven't you made a public announcement and mete out punishment forDr. Albus after learning that he has betrayed the company?" Gale asked.
"Something fishy is going on," Luke said. "Besides, our opponent has a clear motive. I'm notannouncing it because I don't want him to get a better opportunity in the future."
"But if that's the case, the other projects under T Corporation might be leaked..." Gale shared hisanxious thoughts. It was obvious that someone was plotting a scheme against T Corporation. If Lukedid not take any action now, perhaps other employees in T Corporation would betray them for profits.
Besides, the company was currently handling a huge project. If anyone were to leak the information forthis project, the consequences would be disastrous.
"I know what to do." Luke placed one of his hands over the other and gently tapped the table.
He knew someone was hiding in the shadows to go against him, and naturally, he would not just sit idlyby.
