Chapter 1953

"Mm." Luke's tone was still calm. After he found out that Luca had gone to the hospital, he guessedthat she was there to help Nina.

Her friendship with Nina and Sue had never changed.

However, their relationship had changed a lot.

Luke felt hurt when he thought of that. "You can leave now."

"Okay," Luca did not say anything else. She left the room and closed the door for him.

She went upstairs with her backpack. As soon as she returned to the bedroom, her phone rang.

Luca thought it was Nina calling. She took out the phone and saw that it was a string of garbledcharacters. It was not Nina but Abel...

She took a deep breath and answered the call. As soon as she put the phone to her ear, she heard himask, "Did you get the bidding document as I asked you to?"

"The project bid hasn't been completed." Luca frowned.

"Not finished yet? Ivana, who are you kidding? How could Luke's company be so inefficient?" Abel didnot believe her.

Luca could not help but feel a burning rage. If the other party had not suddenly changed its demands,the bid would have been completed early in the morning.

"Since you're paying so much attention to this project, you must know that the other party has changedthe requirements. The bid has to be redone." She lowered her gaze and added, "It's considered good ifwe can complete it in time."

"The bid is approaching the specified submission date and it hasn't been done?” Abel's tone wasgloomy with a hint of warning. If Luca dared to deceive him, that would be it for her!

Luca had no choice but to say truthfully, "There's still a little more to go until it's ready. It should becompleted in another two days."

"In two days?" Abel was dissatisfied. If he waited for Luke to complete the proposal before stealing it, itmight be submitted later than T Corporation. He could not take such a risk, so he said, "There's only alittle bit left, so there won't be many changes. Luca, you have to give me the contents of the biddingdocument by the end of the day."

Luca clenched her hand into a tight fist.

'By the end of the day... That means that I have to steal it in the next few hours. Must I do that...'

"Not today."

"Why?" Abel's tone sounded even more unpleasant.

"I don't know where his important documents are. There's a safe in the company and at home. I canonly try the safe at home today. If it doesn't work, I'll have to wait until tomorrow," Luca said.

"Tomorrow is the final deadline. If you still don't give it to me, you'll have to bear whatever comes next."Abel gave her an ultimatum.

Luca gave an indifferent hum, but she felt uneasy in her heart.

If Luke had put the document in the safe at home, she could sneak it out and modify some importantdata before giving it to Abel.

If they were not in the safe at home, she was unsure how she could get her hands on them.

Luke's office was not a place she could enter if she wanted.

When he heard Luca's tone, Abel smiled gloomily and asked, "How's your wound?"

"I'm not dying. If that's it, I'm going to hang up the call now," Luca said, then hung up the call.

He deliberately mentioned her wound because she was too calm when talking to him.

After she hung up the call, Luca fondled her hair irritably.

Her wound was not her priority. Even if it was inflamed, she would not die within the next few days.

Right now, the most important thing was to get her hands on the bidding document.

She could not prepare the entire bidding document by herself, so she still had to get Luke's biddingdocument...

Luca was pacing in the bedroom. When she was hesitating, Abel sent her another text: [After you getthe bidding document, send it to me in full. If I find out that you changed the price or anything else,Kathryn will suffer.]

Luca's mood sank. She could not help but throw her phone on the bed.

Her hands were clenched tightly into fists...

He knew what she was thinking, so he used Nyla to threaten him...

Luca took a deep breath and adjusted the anger in her heart. She could not be carried away by heremotions. She could not let anything happen to Nyla...

She turned around and looked at the door, behind which was Luke's bedroom...

"Luke, I'm sorry..." Luca whispered. She had to do it for their daughter...

If T Corporation lost the opportunity to bid because of the leaked proposal, it would cause a lot oflosses. The loss of Dr. Albus' research was waiting to be covered by this project.

Therefore, the leaking of the bidding document may seriously harm T Corporation.

However, Luke had the ability. She believed he would be able to get back on his feet, so she could notrisk hurting Nyla by secretly changing the bidding document.

Luca opened the bedroom door and saw that Luke's bedroom door was shut tightly. She took a deepbreath, walked across, and slowly opened the door.

With a click, the door was open.

Luca took a deep breath and glanced in the direction of the stairs. The maid was not heading upstairs.

Meanwhile, Luke could not go upstairs in his state.

She opened the door, walked in, and headed for the safe. However, she hesitated to make the nextmove...

Luca clenched her fists, and her mood was complicated. The bidding document might not be inside. If itwas not inside, she had to go to T Corporation this same night. In any case, she still had to steal thebidding document...

She mustered up her courage and reached for the lock of the safe but did not press it.

She still had no courage to do it.

'I'll do it tonight..'

Luca immediately withdrew her hand and hurried out of Luke's room.

She did not know that Luke had seen everything.

His door was connected to the surveillance camera. When someone opened the door, the surveillancecamera would automatically record everything that was happening in the room.

He looked at Luca through the computer screen and noticed that she seemed to be going through aninternal struggle as she stared at the safe. She stretched out her hand but did not unlock it for a longtime. In the end, she chose to leave.

Luke crossed his hands and kept watch of what was happening through the monitor.

It seemed that her goal was indeed the bidding document.

After he watched Luca leave, Luke clicked out of the interface and opened the drawer beside him.

He prepared this bidding document that was sent over by Jason two days ago for Luca. He just did nothave the time to put it in the safe.

It seemed that he had to put it in the safe himself.novelbin

He would give Luca whatever she wanted...

However, he would not be giving her everything. After all, he had to figure out who was plotting againstthem behind the scenes...

No matter who it was, he swore not to let off the person controlling Luca and forcing her to change herappearance!

Luca went downstairs. She was still trembling. She had almost keyed in the password...

She was so close to completing the task assigned by Abel...

Luca took a deep breath and adjusted her heart rate.

The maid asked with concern when she saw how pale Luca was, "Ms. Craw, your face is so pale. Areyou okay? Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine." Luca shook her head, and her expression returned to normal within a second.

"You don't look the best..." the maid said.

"It might be because I didn't take a nap today, so I'm a little tired." Luca made up a random excuse.
