The more Susan thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She muttered, "No, I'm going to ask Louis about this. He's so unsensible. What's wrong with staying here? Why does he want to move out?"

The butler watched her leave in a hurry and shook his head helplessly.

Louis was the kind of person who did not fight for anything. It was normal for him to want to move out after being forced by her to fight for everything every day. ...

After Luke arrived at the office, he immediately asked Jason to schedule a meeting.

The entire management team was expected to be present, including Luca.

After she received the news, Luca packed up the materials she needed for the meeting. As she carried her laptop, she suddenly thought of what Luke had said last night...

This morning, she ran away and left like an ostrich. However, she knew that she would have to face him sooner or later... copyrighted © content.

It was what it was. Although she had to deal with Luke because of work, she still felt uncomfortable...

Tina knocked on her office door and walked in, "Dr. Craw? I saw that the lights were on in your office and guessed that you were still here. Don't you have a meeting? Why are you still sitting here?"

When she saw Tina's smile, Luca immediately picked up the documents and materials she prepared for the meeting. "I was just thinking about something..."

Tina suddenly came closer and stared at her face carefully. "Dr. Craw, you..."

Luca touched her face and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did you not rest well last night? Your face is so dry."

"You can tell even after I put on makeup?" Luca rubbed her face unconsciously. She was worried that Luke would wake up early, so she rushed her makeup and did not cover up the flaws carefully. She did not expect that Tina would notice it at a glance.

Tina nodded. "I have great eyesight, so I can see everything. Not only is your skin dry, but there are also dark circles under your eyes. It looks like you didn't get a good night's sleep and didn't put on makeup carefully this morning. Look, some spots weren't covered by foundation."

Luca touched where Tina was pointing and said helplessly, "I went out in a hurry in the morning, I didn't pay much attention to my makeup."

"I assume you don't have anything to touch up your makeup? I'll lend you my makeup. You must look your best in front of everyone for the meeting later." Tina handed the compact foundation in her pocket to Luca.

Luca took it, thanked her, then touched up her makeup. She looked at herself in the mirror and realized that her makeup was indeed not done properly.

"Thank you." After she was done, she handed the foundation back to Tina.

Tina took it, put it back in her pocket, and said with a smile, "I'm attending today's meeting too. Shall we go together?"

Luca nodded and left with Tina.

Tina continued to gossip, "Dr. Craw, why didn't you sleep well last night?"

"It's nothing. It's just insomnia," Luca said. She could not tell anyone about what Luke said to her the night before, including Nina. As such, she did not dare to say anything to Tina as well.

Tina thought about it and said, "I think you're losing sleep over love."

"Don't joke around. I'm not in love." Luca lowered her gaze and waited in front of the elevator. She could not admit it even if she was losing sleep over her romantic relationship.

"I'm not joking. Look at your face. Although your skin is in poor condition, it's rosy. It looks like love is coming your way." Tina exposed her.

Luca said helplessly, "I didn't know that you were a fortune teller as well."

"That's right, I learned the craft from an old lady. Not only can I tell your fortune from your facial features, but I can also do palmistry. Dr. Craw, do you want me to take a look? I can do any type of readings, including romantic relationships." Tina joked.

"That's impressive." Luca shook her head helplessly. After talking to Tina, she felt less anxious and much more energetic.

The two took the elevator down and walked into the conference room together. Almost all of the heads of various departments were there. Tina quickly put down her laptop, distributed the files in her hand to each executive, and said, " Good morning everyone. Do you want coffee?" "Yes, thank you," several of the executives responded.

Tina went out to prepare some coffee.

Luca sat on the right side of the CEO's seat and felt more anxious than ever. When she saw Tina head out, she stood up and said, "Tina, I'll help you."

After Tina walked out of the conference room, she looked at Luca and said, "Dr. Craw, I can do it on my own. I'm good without your help."

"Experiments are my forte. It's not my forte to sit next to the CEO and take notes of the meeting. I'm not comfortable with how those executives are looking at me," Luca explained and helped Tina make coffee.

Tina said cheekily, "It's not the first time you've sat there, so why are you nervous?"

"I don't know either. Sitting there makes me feel like I'm being interviewed for university. It's very uncomfortable. Maybe it's because I'm not a professional in this and was pulled in at the last minute,” Luca explained.

"Don't put yourself down! Those in the management team of T Corporation are of high capability. You sitting next to them means that the boss recognizes your ability. Be confident in yourself." Tina comforted her.

Luca shook his head. 'Luke acknowledged my capability?'

Before that, she thought that Luke got her involved because of a lack of manpower. He could not trust strangers, so he chose her.

Later, she thought these arrangements were made because Luke was used to her.

However, what he said the night before made her realize that Luke's arrangement might not be an endorsement of her ability but because he had ulterior motives.

It was because he wanted to get close to her so that he could monitor her all the time. Even if it was not to monitor her, he definitely had other motives.

As such, Luca felt out of place when she sat there.

She felt that she should not be sitting there. The confidence she had in the past was inexplicably disappearing little by little.

In the conference room.

An executive watched Luca go out with Tina and started to gossip with his colleagues. "This translator looks young. The boss seems to pay a lot of attention to her. Have you heard anything about her?"

"What could we possibly hear? She's just a professor working in the research room downstairs who happened to have studied in Russia and has fair translation skills. It just so happened that our Russian translator is on maternity leave, so this task fell on her head."

"I heard the same but don't you think it's strange? A young woman like her has that kind of ability?" the executive questioned. "She's a research professor downstairs. I think it's interesting that she's here. I won't believe it if someone says that she's not somewhat involved with Mr. Crawford."

"She does look young but I heard that this woman is actually about the same age as Mr. Crawford, maybe just a few years younger. I think she truly has the capability."
