Abel looked at her delicate lips and smiled evilly. "You have a sweet mouth. Since you're so happy, you can make me happy too."

Hera understood what he meant. Her face blushed as she said shyly, “Cheeky.'

"What? You don't want more money?" Abel took her hand and did not let her leave.

Hera blinked her eyes and looked at him with fascination. "Of course, I want money. Since you're not letting me learn from you, I can only ask you for money..."

"Serve me well. You'll have more money as long as I'm happy," Abel spoke bluntly. He then stood up and pulled Hera into the bedroom.

The next day.

When Luca came downstairs, she found Jason and Tina standing in the living room.

"Dr. Craw, good morning,” the two greeted her in unison.

"Good morning, why are you..." Luca looked at them and instantly understood. "Is the bid about to be completed?"

"Yes, we're close to finishing it, so I came over with Tina to help the boss finalize the document." Jason smiled. After so many months, they were finally completing the project bid.

However, it was not time to relax yet. If they were good enough, T Corporation would win the project and there would be another round of hectic schedules.

All they would get was a temporary rest.

After all, the company still had other projects in the works.

"Is Mr. Crawford up?" Luca did not sleep much last night, so she got up earlier than usual and was unsure if Luke had woken up.

"Mr. Crawford is already up, and the maid is occupied," Jason replied and invited her. "Dr. Craw, if you have nothing to do, you can join us."

"I think I should stay out of it. The bidding document is confidential. An unrelated person like me shouldn't know too much about it." Luca turned him down.

Jason nodded and smiled.

Luke had already told him that Luca took the fake bidding document. Although she had put it back in place, he guessed that the fake document had been photographed and sent to a third party.

Jason did not have much of a reaction toward the matter because he knew Luca was being blackmailed.

After all, the bidding document was fake, so it did not matter who had their hands on it now. It would not affect T Corporation.

Luca said, "Since you came so early, I assume the two of you haven't had breakfast yet? Should I prepare your portions when I prepare breakfast?"

"Thank you, Dr. Craw." Tina immediately responded. She had been dying to have Luca's cooking again.

"Will it be troublesome?" Jason asked.

"Making two more portions is not that different from making one portion," Luca said. They came so early when dawn just broke. Those breakfast stalls by the road would not have been open, so they probably had yet to eat anything.

Especially Tina, who always ate out for meals. She must not have had breakfast.

"Okay, thank you." Jason thanked her and glanced at Tina. ‘Even if she's hungry, she should thank Luca. It's manners.'

Tina noticed Jason's expression and stuck out her tongue slightly.

She knew that she had agreed too quickly. Those who were not close with her would think that she was rude.

Nevertheless, Luca not only knew her but also knew her very well, so she did not intend to act polite.

Besides, if her boss wanted to be jealous, he should be jealous of Luca and other men. He should not be jealous of her relationship with other women.

Jason shook his head helplessly. He did not want to eat it at first, but since Tina said yes, it would be awkward if he just sat there while they ate.

As such, he could only agree.

He hoped Luke would not show a sour expression later. Otherwise, even the most delicious breakfast would taste like wax.

After a while, the maid came out of the room and said, "Mr. Doyle, Ms. Tina, sir asked you to go in."

"Okay, thank you." Jason thanked the maid and walked into the maid's room together.

"Boss," the two called out to Luke.

"Sit down." Luke's tone was cold, and he showed no emotions.

The maid's room was not big. After he requested a 1.8-meter bed and a wardrobe, a large desk was placed in the remaining space. There was no extra space for them to place another desk.

As such, they had to share a desk with Luke.

Luke had instructed the maid to reposition the desk and add two more chairs.

He sat with his back to the wall, while Jason and Tina sat opposite him.

"Boss, shall we start now?" Jason looked at Luke. They would do the summary. Although there were not many people, it would not be a problem to submit the bidding document in time.

"Mm." Luke turned on his laptop.

At the same time, Jason and Tina also performed the same action.

On the other hand.

The maid walked into the kitchen and found that Luca was already up. She asked softly, "Ms. Craw, why are you up so early?" "I got up early last night because I went to bed early." Luca knew that the maid lowered her voice so as not to disturb the three people working in the maid's room. Hence, she also lowered her voice to answer her.

The maid looked at her complexion and thought it was not the best. Currently, she did not look like someone who had gone to bed early and gotten a good night's rest.

However, she did not say anything. Instead, she asked, "Are you going to make breakfast?"

"Yes." Luca nodded.

"I'll help you. What dishes are you planning to make?" The maid picked up the apron on the side and put it on.

"Let's do a little of everything. There are many people today. We can prepare more so that they have the energy to complete their work after they fill their stomachs," Luca lowered her gaze and said while she held back the overwhelming feeling of guilt.

Even if they gave it their all for the bidding document, they would not succeed...

Maybe, the other party had already figured out T Corporation's bid.

Luca was uncomfortable when she thought about how she ruined their hard work that went on for months in just half an hour.

She was the one who did something wrong, and she was also the one who felt uncomfortable.

"Ms. Craw, what are you doing with the noodles?" the maid asked curiously when she saw Luca standing still while holding the noodles in front of the sink.

Luca snapped out of it and replied, "I'm thinking about what to make."

"It's early in the morning, so let's make something light." The maid suggested. She noticed that Luca had taken out the bread bought from the supermarket. She then said, "Are you planning on toasting the bread? If you make noodles, noodles and side dishes will be enough. Will it be too wasteful to make so much food?"

"They have a heavy workload today, so they'll consume a lot of mental and physical energy. Let's toast the bread and give it to them as a snack. By the way, I don't know where the coffee beans are. Can you take them out? I think they'll need coffee." Luca was going to fix a pot of coffee and bring it to them.

At T Corporation, all of them relied on coffee to stay alert. She wanted to prepare it for them ahead of time. Original from .

The maid smiled and opened one of the cabinets to take out the coffee beans. "You're so thoughtful."

"They live on coffee every day, so I'm going to brew more and put it in a thermos," Luca said. Her plan would ensure that there was enough coffee and it would not get cold.

What she could do now was to make amends as much as possible to ease her guilt.
