"It's snowing again." Luca let out a sigh. She was unconsciously hiding the fact that she was seeing Luke off from Aunt Neile.

"Yes. I remember that it's your first time spending the winter here, right? Although it's not as cold as it is in Russia, it'll snow every day after winter comes," replied Aunt Neile.

Luca nodded. Before she walked away from the window, she said, "Aunt Neile, I'm going upstairs to get some rest." Têxt © .

"Alright, Ms. Craw. Take care," Aunt Neile replied happily.

Luca made her way up the stairs. She did not rest as she had slept for more than ten hours on the plane. She was full of energy.

Luca returned to her bedroom and picked up her phone. She sent a message to Amur and told him that she had come back from Russia.

Amur did not reply to her.

Luca was not in a hurry to give him a call either. She thought of finding a chance to visit him.

When she was in Russia, she did not follow up with the experiments going on in the lab. Luca called Rhett at the thought of this.

"Dr. Craw, are you back?" Rhett was surprised to receive a phone call from Luca.

"Yes. Oh, how's the experiment going?" Luca asked. The research would have been completed and the drug would have been released on the market if Luke had not asked her to follow up with M Group's project.

Rhett was startled for a moment and hesitated, "The research..."

"What's the matter?" Luca asked. She knew something must have happened when she heard him say that.

"There's something wrong with the research data. It's slightly different from what we expected," Rhett replied helplessly.

Luca was surprised and asked, "Why didn't anyone inform me about this?"

"The management told us to study it ourselves and not to disturb you before you went to Russia. And they told us to pause the experiment if we can't get it right," answer Rhett. They were unable to find the reason for what was wrong with the data. That was why no one dared to continue the research, and they were afraid that the wrong data would cause the rest of the experiment to end up in vain.

Hence, they were currently delaying the research. A bunch of researchers was sitting in the office every day, digging through the past data and information trying to find out what went wrong during the experiment.

Luca frowned. She knew it was Luke's orders without a second thought. He even took the risk that something might go wrong with the research just so she would not get disturbed...

Luke spent a huge amount of money on their research. However, he was not concerned about it.

If it were someone else, he would have asked the employees to work continuously and make it on time to release the product in the market. How could he possibly make such arrangements.

“Is everyone in the research team at the office now?" Luca asked.

"Yes. Dr. Craw, we're here. It's just that there's hardly any progress with our research." Rhett sounded helpless. If Luca were here to lead them, they would not be stuck in such a situation now.

“I'm going to the office now. Get ready and tell them we'll be having a meeting in 45 minutes." Luca decided.

Rhett was startled, "Dr. Craw, are you in such a hurry? You just came back today. Why don't you get some rest."

"It's alright. We have to get the research data sorted out as soon as possible so that the drug can be launched on the market," replied Luca. Luke had yet to handle Dr. Albus' matter, and Luca had no idea how it would end.

However, as for Pierre.

Although Luke had not confronted her yet, Luca was prepared to leave anytime.

She would like to get the research done and launch the product before she left. That would be the last thing that she could do for Luke.

Moreover, the study was based on Shanks' research that was to cure the same disease. It worked much better than the drugs on the market. If the drug was launched in the market, Luca would just regard it as she was helping the patients who were suffering from the disease.

It would be a good deed.

Luca hung up the call after she made her decision. She put on warm clothes and hurried down the stairs.

Aunt Neile was busy cleaning the house downstairs. She was dumbfounded for a moment when she saw that Luca had changed her clothes and was making her way downstairs. Aunt Niele asked, "Ms. Craw, are you going out?"

"Yes. Something came up in the office. I'll have to go over," answered Luca. She picked up the car keys from the shelf at the entrance.

"You've just returned and you're heading to the office already? Will you be coming back for dinner?" Aunt Neile asked.

Luca paused for a moment and answered, "No. Mr. Crawford went to Crawford Manor, so you don't have to prepare his portion either. Aunt Neile, you may go home early if there's nothing left to do."

"Ah, okay. Drive safe," Aunt Neile reminded.

"Okay, I got it." Luca grabbed the key and walked out of the house.

The cold wind blew against her face. She could not help but lower her chin into the scarf and trotted to the parking lot. Then, she headed to T Corporation.

On the other hand.

Luke drove his car back to Crawford Manor.

He had called and informed Old Master Crawford before he came. Mr. Griffin came over and told Luke that Old Master Crawford was waiting for him in the tea room when Luke walked into the house.

Luke took off his coat and handed it to Mr. Griffin. Then, he walked into the house.

“Young Master Luke, aren't you taking off that scarf?" Mr. Griffin asked.

Luke lowered his head and glanced at the scarf, then he shook his head and said, "No."

Luca had given him the scarf, so he wanted it to be around his neck for a while longer.

Luke walked into the tea room and closed the door behind him. "Grandpa."

"Here you are. It's cold out there. Have some tea." Old Master Crawford picked up a cup of tea that was freshly made and placed it opposite him.

Luke sat down and picked up the tea to warm his hands.

"Is the company's project going well?" Old Master Crawford had always been concerned about the company's matters. That was why he knew about the project and Dr. Albus' matter.

However, he would still like to listen to Luke's report about the matters.

"Everything's going smoothly. The contract is signed, and once we discuss it with the other business partners, we can start working on the project," said Luke.

"Great. It was the right choice to leave the company to you." Old Master Crawford took a sip of his cup of tea and let out a sigh. He was always sighing. His son passed away early. However, he was fortunate enough to have two of his bloodlines left. They had grown up to be remarkable men, and the two brothers lived harmoniously. That was enough.

"Grandpa, I have something to discuss with you this time," said Luke.

"About the company?" Old Master Crawford asked.

"Yes." Luke nodded.

Old Master Crawford picked up his phone beside him and sent a message to Mr. Griffin: [Don't let anyone come near the tea room.]

After he gave his orders, he said, "Tell me. What happened?"

"I prepared a fake bidding document when I was preparing for the bid," said Luke.

Old Master Crawford did not expect Luke to do something like that. After all, it was difficult to prepare two bidding documents at the same time.

Even though many employees worked in T Corporation, Luke would not have asked them to prepare two documents.

"Why?" Old Master Crawford asked.

"Someone was eyeing the project." Luke did not mention Luca's name.
