Female Novel
Chapter 2866
"Okay, Dr. Craw." Mo retreated to the room to prepare coffee for her.
On the other hand, Rhett stood there, waiting for Luca to finish reading the materials he prepared.
The office was dead silent.
Luca opened the documents that Rhett handed over and speedily read through the contents.
Rhett was still a little nervous as he watched her flip through to the last page. He was worried that thematerial he had prepared independently would not be good enough to make her satisfied.
Luca closed the documents after reading them. Without giving Rhett any trouble, she handed the filesto him and said bluntly, "Very well done. These are the materials I want. You can copy these and sendthem to the meeting room."
"Right away." Rhett took the documents. His spirits were lifted by Luca's approval, which made himexcited.
Rhett walked out of Luca's office with the documents. At the same time, Mo walked to the door with acup of coffee.
She saw him and whispered, "Did you pass?"
Mo knew that this was the first time that Rhett had completed such an important task independently. Hedid not have any confidence without Luca guiding him.
However, this was an order from above, and he could only follow it.
With an uncontrollable smile on Rhett's face, he nodded. "Yes, I'm going to make a copy now."
Mo was a little surprised but still nodded and said, "Congratulations."
In the beginning, she did not think that Rhett could meet the standard that Luca wanted.
However, he was able to complete this task alone. Mo looked at the coffee in her hand, feeling a littleuneasy inside.
She chose to be an assistant in this department, not a professor's assistant.
This was because she felt that an independent research assistant would be very busy. They wouldhave to shoulder a lot of responsibilities too.
She and Rhett joined the company at the same time. Rhett had made progress, but she was still whereshe was.
He could handle these documents alone, but she was still doing chores for various professors, dealingwith trivial matters that had little to do with the profession...
For the first time, Mo felt she was missing out.
It took her a few seconds to suppress the sense of missing out in her heart. Then, she walked intoLuca's office with a cup of coffee.
"Dr. Craw, your coffee," Mo had a smile on her face. She had been in the workforce for such a longtime, so she was able to hide her true emotions with a smile.
"Thank you." Luca took the coffee and took a big gulp. The bitter coffee slid down her throat and intoher stomach. The caffeine had not kicked in yet, but the warmth in the coffee gave her body a pick-me-up.
Mo glanced at the time and reminded her. "Dr. Craw, it's time for the meeting."
"I know. You go and prepare first. I'll be there later," Luca said, taking another sip of coffee.
She planned to finish this cup of coffee before going in. Although she was sleepy, her current state wasstill able to cope with work.
She just wanted to make her work better through coffee.
Mo nodded slightly, walked out of Luca's office, and planned to make some tea and coffee for theresearchers in the conference room. Then, she saw Rhett coming out of the assistant's office with alarge stack of copied documents. Rhett nodded to her and then walked to the conference room.
Mo felt even more uncomfortable.
They had the same starting line. Of course, they should be doing the same kind of work.
Now, Rhett's scope of work was wider than hers. Not only could he participate in the experiment, but hecould also do many things with Luca.
On top of that, the prize money for those research projects...
Not only did she not have these, but she still had to still serve refreshments to those professors andresearchers...
Mo looked at Rhett's back, wondering if she had got it all wrong before.
Perhaps if she had gotten closer to Luca, this position would not have belonged to Rhett.
Luca finished her cup of coffee before walking slowly to the conference room.
The researchers in her group were already sitting there waiting for her in the conference room.
"Sorry, I was slightly delayed by certain matters. Let's start the meeting now," Luca said as she satdown. She turned on the laptop and started the meeting with them.
Meanwhile, Luke arrived at the provincial capital on the dot according to the time Jack proposed. Jackhad asked his secretary to make tea while waiting for him. When he was about to speak, the secretaryknocked on the door and entered, informing Jack that the meeting that should start in an hour suddenlyneeded to be brought forward.
Those who attended the meeting today included officials from other governments.
Jack had no choice but to request Luke to go home first.
Luke knew that Jack had an impromptu meeting and proposed that he could wait in the reception roomand wait.
He knew that Jack must want to talk to him about something highly confidential seeing as he asked himto come to the provincial capital.
The provincial capital, especially Jack's reception room and office, were places with the highest level ofconfidentiality.
After the incident with the Norman family, Jack no longer trusted the Norman family. Although he had aprofessional security team, he was worried that someone with bad intentions would eavesdrop on whathe planned to tell Luke. Thus, he chose to talk here.
Choosing to be in the provincial capital meant that Luke was a visitor, not Jack's son-in-law.
However, the level of privacy here was top-tier.
Therefore, Luke waited for almost two hours.novelbin
During this period, he was not idle. He used his mobile phone to work and dealt with a lot of workmatters.
The receptionist of the provincial capital came in several times to refill his tea.
More than two hours later, Jack ended the meeting. Instead of returning to the office to rest, he wentdirectly to the reception room and said to his secretary beside him, "I have something to discuss withMr. Crawford. Don't let anyone in."
"Yes." The secretary nodded and stood outside the reception room.
The door of the reception room was pushed open. Luke put away his phone, stood up, and greeted theperson who came in.
Jack nodded, waved to him and said, "Have a seat."
Luke waited for him to sit down before sitting down himself.
As soon as he sat down, Jack asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time? I thought you leftalready."
After all, Luke was usually very busy with work, so Jack was a little surprised that he was able to sithere for two hours.
"You reached out to me. I must wait for you no matter what," Luke expressed his determination.
This was normal even if Jack was not his father-in-law. Furthermore, it was important for him to do sobecause Jack was still his father-in-law.
When his father-in-law had something to say and reached out to him, he would definitely obey the oldman's orders no matter how busy he was and wait here obediently.
"I've already taken up enough of your time, so I'll make it short." Jack was very satisfied with what Lukesaid and went straight to the point.
Luke nodded. He should listen carefully when Jack is speaking.
"I asked you here today because I want to talk about two things. It just so happens that neither of thesetwo things can be made known to others, so I chose to talk to you here. You're so smart, so youwould've guessed this," Jack had come in with his thermos in his arms. After saying this, he opened thethermos and took a sip of water to moisten his throat.
