Chapter 1383 He Wanted to Have Lunch With Her

Luca listened to the conversation from the side and broke out in a cold sweat for the cafeteria lady. Luke was an extremely serious person. She was not sure if he disliked being referred to as a young man.

"Mm." Luke handed the meal card to Luca and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Luca took the meal card. She did not expect him to react so calmly. Seeing that he was not furious at the cafeteria lady, she took her food and found a corner to sit down.

The cafeteria lady gave him a plate full of dishes seeing that he was a man. She handed it to him and said, "Young man, if you want to have better dishes, do come early. If you come at this hour, these would be all that’s left."

"Mm." Luke had no intention of sharing his true identity with her. He held the tray, glanced around, and decided to sit opposite Luca.

Luca stopped eating and looked at the man in front of her. * He wants to have lunch with me?’

Luke sat down and ate slowly.

Luca swallowed the food in her mouth and glanced around again. There were many seats available but he chose to sit opposite her. No one would believe that it was not intentional.

"Mr. Crawford, there are many seats around us." She pretended to remind him but was subtly hinting that she did not want to sit with him.

Although there were not many people in the cafeteria, everyone knew that he was the boss except for the cafeteria lady.

"Are you afraid of me?" Luke put down his spoon and grabbed some salad with his fork.

Luca always felt that he liked to ask this question. She was not afraid of him, she just wanted to keep a safe distance.

"No," she replied.

Luke ate his salad and said in a calm tone, "I'm just curious as to why Tommy likes you so much." ’

Luca was not sure how to react.

'He’s curious, so he wants to get close to me?'

Tommy was her son, so it was normal for him to be dependent on her. They were connected by blood, and their connection was something that science could not explain.

However, she could not tell him that.

"It's not just Tommy. Lanie and Rainie seem to have accepted you as well." Luke put down his utensils and looked at Luca, who was eating silently. "Luca, they’re not even close to their mother. Why do they like you so much?" i

Luca's hands shivered at the mention of the fake Bianca.

In front of outsiders, the fake Bianca was still his wife. Even if he knew that the fake Bianca was a fake, he had no intention of making that information public.

He was an insidious man...

"Maybe kids just like me," Luca said as she continued to eat.

Luke saw her act as though nothing was going on. 'Kids just like her?’

She appeared as someone cold, which was opposite to what Bianca was like, but his three children loved her...

Luke thought of the fake Bianca and looked at the woman in front of him. He was curious and wondered if she had the same tattoo on her body.

It seemed that he had to find a way to figure it out.

Luca felt uncomfortable eating while being watched by him. After she took a few bites in a hurry, she stood up holding the tray. "Mr. Crawford, I'm full. Take your time."

Luke watched her go to the tray collection area to put down the tray and then hurriedly left.

She evaded him as fast as ever...

In the afternoon, Jason wandered to Luca's office and knocked on the door.

Luca said, "Come in."

Jason opened the door and walked in. He saw Luca sitting behind the computer desk, typing on the keyboard.

Jason was slightly surprised listening to the sound of the keyboard. The speed of her typing was comparable to Luke's.

Luca stopped what she was doing, raised her head, and asked him, Mr. Doyle, have a seat."

Jason sat on the sofa. Before he spoke, he heard her ask, "Is there something wrong?"

"Indeed. I’ve seen the surveillance footage. The surveillance camera in your laboratory has been broken for three days and no one has repaired it, so when the incident happened, the surveillance camera didn't capture anything. Do you know about this?” Jason asked.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

"I do. Ms. Stone notified the logistics department on the day the camera was broken but they said that the camera was customized abroad and they would place an order for a replacement. They told us that they would come and install it today," Luca said. "It's not a secret. Everyone in the technical department knows about it."

Jason nodded and continued talking, "I’ve checked the cameras in the corridor too, but nothing stood out."

Luca did not check the cameras there because he had taken over the matter. She listened and asked curiously, "The cameras in the corridor didn't capture anything weird?’’

"I don't think there was anything that stood out. People who went in and out of the area were all normal. After work, no one was in or out of the laboratory after the last researcher left the office. However, Dr. Craw, didn't you go to the hospital to accompany Tommy yesterday? Tommy said that the oats you made were delicious. How were you working overtime yet still had time to cook oats for him? Was it made in advance?" Jason asked.

"Work overtime? I didn't work overtime yesterday." Luca frowned. The day before, she got off work at normal time and went home to cook for Tommy.

"You didn't work overtime? I saw on the monitor that you left half an hour after the official working hours." Jason deliberately took note of the time each employee left. He took out his notepad and handed it over. "This is the timing I saw on the surveillance. You were the last one to leave in the entire department."

Luca looked at the time he recorded and said firmly, "Did you watch the surveillance footage of the previous day? I didn't work overtime yesterday, I left earlier than the researchers in the laboratory and went home to cook..."

Jason touched his chin, suddenly thinking of something. He said, "I’m sure that I was looking at the footage from yesterday, unless..."

"Unless what?" Luca asked with a frown.

"I'll check it out first. If I'm sure of my thoughts, I'll tell you." Jason retrieved his notebook and turned around to leave.

Even if he did not say it, Luca knew what he was thinking.

She once saw in a news report that a staff member used old surveillance footage to defraud the police on the day of the incident to steal the cash that the company's boss had in the safe.

If it were not for the police in charge who checked the surveillance footage from several days ago and found that the surveillance footage was exactly the same, they would never have found the real thief.

She was almost certain that the footage of the corridor was also switched.

Luca touched her chin. Originally, she thought this was done by an insider from the technical department but now it seemed that the security department was also involved.

After all, people in the technical department did not have the ability to do such things. They were great at doing research but they could not do technical work like swapping surveillance footage.
