Chapter 1144 Nothing Happened

"It’s so late. Why haven't you slept?" Luke crossed his arms and sat in the chair. His expression was calm.

"I can't sleep." Bianca played with her fingers anxiously. Before he could say anything, she said, "Luke, I overreacted today. I didn't mean anything else. But if you're interested in her, I'll leave. Since Tommy likes her too, you can be one happy family."

As Luke listened to her sorrowful words, his expression was flat. Bianca could not see any joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness.

Bianca waited for his answer by the door. Seeing how calm he was, she turned from confident to anxious.

"Don't think too much of it. Go to sleep," Luke said after he did not move for sometime.

He did not comfort her nor comment further...

Bianca was dissatisfied but calmed down a little. At the very least, he was not going to divorce her for Ivana.

She nodded. When she was about to turn around and leave, she heard Luke say, "Don't worry about the reporter." "Aren't you going to pay him off?" Bianca was taken aback. She thought that he would pay up to bury the matter.

"Nothing happened, so there's no need to do such things." After he said that, Luke turned on his computer. His gaze was fixed on his screen as he started working.

Bianca was taken aback. After a while, she understood what he meant.

If he paid the reporter, it meant that he had something to hide and was involved with Ivana. The reporter would never let go of it.

"But I'm afraid that they'll make up a story with those photos." Bianca expressed her concern, not realizing how stupid her words made her seem.

"I know how to deal with it," Luke said. He took a look at the time and realized that it was almost midnight.

Listening to the sound of his constant typing on the keyboard, Bianca nodded and left. She closed the door on her way out.

She knew that Luke would not sleep in their bedroom tonight.

Bianca stared at the closed door and clenched her fists. In this home and Luke's heart, she was starting to matter less and less as time went by. She knew that something needed to be done for her to hold onto Luke's heart.

Early the next morning.

Luca got up early, made breakfast for Amur, and freshened up before leaving.

Luca stood at the gate of the community and waited for a taxi. It was rush hour now, so all the taxis that came by were occupied.

Luca waited patiently.

A fat man was hiding at the corner of the community. He secretly took photos of her with his camera.

Luca sensed something. She looked over and saw the corner of the fat man's clothes. Her lips curled up into a smile. She was not bothered.

If they wanted to take a photo of her, she would let them. These gangsters did not pose a threat to her.

After five minutes, Luca finally got an empty taxi. She got in and left.

After seeing her leave, the fat man walked out of the corner and called the thin man. "Boss, I got the photos you wanted." "Very well, send them to me," the thin man said happily.

The fat man left without knowing that Luca had spotted him.

The taxi driver followed the GPS and drove her to the destination.

After she paid, Luca got out of the car and looked up at the new building that had a sign that read 'Watson Biopharmaceuticals'. Property © .

This was the building where T Corporation's pharmaceutical company was located.

Luca was surprised that Luke built a building for this pharmaceutical company. It seemed that he had full confidence in entering the pharmaceutical industry.

She walked inside and thought about Abel's possible plans.

However, Abel was too unpredictable. She secretly made up her mind to make as much money as possible for Luke before Abel plotted his next step.

Luca walked into the pharmaceutical building and went through security with her badge.

After that, an employee was registering fingerprints and pupil recognition for the new employees.

It was the first day of work, so there were a lot of people. Luca followed the crowd and joined the long line.

Standing in front of her was a young and lively woman. She looked back at Luca, smiled sweetly, and stretched out her hand as she said, "Hello, my name is Talia. What's your name?" "Luca." Faced with the woman's enthusiasm, Luca had no choice but to shake her hand. She looked a little uncomfortable.

The other party was enthusiastic, but Luca had no intention of making friends. She just wanted to complete Abel's mission and return to the Island of Despair so that she could buy time to plan her escape.

Talia realized her abruptness and smiled as she withdrew her hand. However, she did not give up talking to Luca. "By the way, I'm an administrative assistant. Which department do you belong to?" "Technical department," Luca said. She kept her words concise.

Talia’s eyes were opened wide as she said enviously, "Are you a research assistant? Oh my goodness, I envy you so much."

Luca kept quiet.

Talia did not realize that the other party did not want to continue the conversation and went on with her chatter. "I wanted to enter the technical department but the requirements there are so high and they're picky with researchers. So in the end, the company said that they would place me in the administration department. I agreed. After all, if I perform well, there's a chance that I can change departments. Let me tell you, working in the technical department is great! You have a high salary and can learn relevant professional knowledge. You have to appreciate this chance that you're given. I'm so envious of you! I don’t know when I can be transferred to the technical department." "Why do you want to join the technical department?" Luca asked.

"I majored in biopharmaceuticals, but I don't have the experience, so I can only go along with the company's arrangements." Talia shrugged.

"You can choose another pharmaceutical company," Luca said. If Talia could not enter the department she wanted to enter, she had the choice of working for another company.

The pharmaceutical industry was booming. There were many pharmaceutical companies in A City.

Talia shook her head and said, "How can other pharmaceutical companies compare to T Corporation's pharmaceutical company? To put it bluntly, even if I’m an administrative officer, as long as my internship report is stamped with the logo of Watson Biopharmaceuticals, I’ll get mentors who will appreciate me and look at me differently."

Luca envied how enthusiastic Talia was.

Those who just left university were truly motivated. They were bright and warm like the sun.

"By the way, did you also major in biopharmaceuticals?" Talia asked.

Luca pointed to the front and said, "It's your turn.’’ "Oh, that's fast!" After Bianca's reminder, Talia turned around and cooperated with the staff to register her fingerprints and pupil recognition.

After she was done, it was Luca's turn.

Luca handed her employment letter and employee ID to the employee. Then, she registered her fingerprints and pupils on the machine.

When the employee saw her ID, they suddenly smiled and buttered her up."

Dr. Craw, here's your ID. Please come in."

Luca took the badge, nodded, and walked in. Talia, who was waiting for her, stared at her after she heard what the employee had said. 'Doctor?'
