Tina furrowed her brows and refuted, “Yes, the grilled chicken is a little greasy. But it’s not a big deal for us since we’re still young. Our bodily functions and digestion are still working well. We won’t put on weight if we exercise. We won’t dare to eat this when we get older, so we’ll maintain our body shape.”

Ms. Reid planned to mock them for not taking care of their diet. It suddenly got on her nerves when she was being insulted like this.

She intended to insult Luca. After all, she had nothing to do with her, so Luca could not lay a hand on her. Hence, nothing would happen even if they insulted each other.

However, she did not expect Tina to speak on behalf of Luca.

Other than Mr. Doyle, Tina was another secretary of Mr. Crawford’s whom he highly valued. Many years had passed and a few secretaries came and left but Tina never got fired.

Even so, there was nothing going on between Tina and Mr. Crawford. Those people who loved to gossip could not get anything on her, and they were not sure where to start even if they wanted to defame her.

Ms. Reid dared not to say anything more, considering Tina was a popular employee who worked right beside Mr. Crawford in the company. She replied awkwardly, “Tina, that’s reasonable of you to say. Unlike me, I’m getting older. Well, enjoy your dinner.”

After Ms. Reid left, Zoey burst into laughter and said in a soft voice, “Ms. Reid isn’t usually that angry, right? Why is she so angry today? She’s criticizing everyone she meets.”

Tina shook her head helplessly as she looked at how insensible Zoey was.

Was Zoey becoming a little slow after having some beer? What Ms. Reid said just now was obviously against Luca.

Tina was fed up with her behavior, so she spoke on behalf of Luca.

As for the reason why Ms. Reid was against Luca, it was simple. It was because of Luke.

It was not because Ms. Reid had a crush on Luke. After all, she was already a mother, so she dared not pull such tricks.

Ms. Reid had once thought of recommending her niece to become Luke’s secretary, but she was rejected.

She intended her niece to become Luke’s mistress rather than to be his secretary. However, she did not expect Luke to be so stubborn. He was not even the slightest bit interested in Ms. Reid’s daughter.

At first, she was the secretary’s assistant, but she was dismissed after she tried to seduce Luke.

Now that rumors of Luca and Luke’s scandal were flying all around T Corporation, claiming that she was Luke’s secret lover, Ms. Reid was naturally unable to accept it when she knew about it.

Her niece got rejected when she wanted to become Luke’s secret lover, and she almost lost her job because of it.

It seemed that Luca took the leading position so easily.

Of course, she was frustrated.

It was something that happened a long time ago. Luca did not ask about it, and Tina did not mention it either. It was before they thought it might give each other an impression that they were a nosy person.

“Something probably changed recently, and that’s why Ms. Reid is so quick-tempered,” Tina smiled and said.

After dinner, Luca was about to leave and return to her room. Luke entered at this time with Jason following beside him.

“Boss is here.” Many of them were shouting after someone called out first, though it was uncertain who it was. “Boss, Boss!”

Luke was treated like the president of a country. The only difference was he did not wave, and the expression on his face was cold.

One of the employees said, “Boss, say something?” Belongs to - All rights reserved.

“Yes, Boss. Say something!” Some of them became more daring after drinking some beer. They encouraged Luke to go up the stage and give a speech.

Luke said something to Jason who was beside him.

Jason nodded after he listened to him and left. It seemed like he went to get ready.

Tina took a sip of the lemonade to get rid of the greasy feeling in her stomach. She said, “Looks like our boss is in a good mood today. He’s being kind to the employees, and he’s getting ready to give a speech.”

Luca looked at Luke, puzzled. Would he give a speech?

After a while, a waiter brought a microphone in and walked over to Luke. He handed the microphone to Luke.

Luke took it and stood on a small round stage like a champion looking at his subordinates. He lifted the microphone and moved it closer to his lips, saying, “Good evening to the employees of T Corporation.” His voice was husky and deep. It sounded like the sonorous music notes played on the strings of a cello.

The employees beneath the stage went along with him. “Good evening, Boss.”

“T Corporation couldn’t be what it is today without everyone’s effort. I hope all of you enjoy your trip. After the trip ends, I hope you’ll put your heart into your work. I’ll strive to bring everyone on a trip to Europe next year.”

Some of the employees jumped for joy after they heard about the trip to Europe.

The company’s performance had to do with the travel destination.

Some companies would organize a trip to a foreign country, but that was only a perk for the management team. Ordinary employees would never get the chance.

However, Luke had promised them, which meant that there was a great chance that they would be able to travel abroad next year.

“Hail to the boss!” one of them cheered.

Then, more and more people cheered together.

Luca looked at Luke, who was being surrounded by the crowd. There was a flicker of light in his eyes. He was a god. A god who led the way for these ordinary people…

Although it was a little much to say so, sure enough, T Corporation, which was led by Luke, had helped many people make a living.

The older employees were not dismissed because of their age despite their work performance falling.

Luke would always make sure that they were given proper arrangements. He ensured the company had steady and sustained growth while being able to provide a stable life for every employee.

The employees would always accept Luke’s transfer arrangements with an open heart. It was because they knew those arrangements were the best for them.

Luca knew everything about it.

There was rarely a business owner who could achieve everything he had. It was because of this many people were willing to try anything and compete to get a job in T Corporation.

Luke’s speech was simple as usual. After he gave the speech, he successfully lightened up the atmosphere.

He did not say anything more and passed the microphone to the waiter beside him. He got off the little round stage.

He was going to leave.

When he was about to leave, Luca could feel that he seemed to have shot a glance in her direction.

She had no idea if it was just an illusion…

Luca slowly stood up as she watched Luke disappear.

“Dr. Craw, have you had enough to eat?” Zoey had a bright smile on her face. She was clearly happy about what Luke had said just now.

“Yes, I’m full. I’m a little tired after being on the high-speed rail for the whole day. I’m going back to my room to rest,” Luca nodded and said.

“Sure.” Zoey nodded her head.

Zoey stopped smiling after Luca left. She looked at Tina and asked, “Tina, is there any inside information that you haven’t told me yet?”

“If you want to keep your job and get promoted, then don’t keep thinking of gossiping. There are things that I can’t tell you about.” Tina tapped the table with her index finger, sort of hinting at her.
