Tommy loved Luca's cooking. He was about to say yes when Lanie said, "It's okay, Ms. Luca, this is more than enough."
Tommy shut his mouth embarrassed ly.
Luke went into the dining room after coming downstairs and smelled the aroma of breakfast.
After seeing Luca in an apron, Luke knew that she had made breakfast.
"Daddy," the three children greeted simultaneously.
Luke's gaze fell on the three kids. He saw that they were eating breakfast with smiles on their faces, which gave him peace of mind.
"Good morning, Mr. Crawford," said Luca.
"Good morning." Luke sat on the chair.
Luca was about to scoop up some oats for him when Aunt Neile immediately said, "Ms. Craw, have a seat. I'll do it."
Luca sat on the seat next to Luke.
Aunt Neile ladled a bowl of oats each for the two of them and returned to the kitchen.
They were like a family of five, enjoying their breakfast in peace. Aunt Neile did not have the heart to spoil the mood.
"You didn't drive back yesterday, right?" Luke asked Luca and took a bite of his oats.
"Yes, I had to go to the suburbs and didn't know the way very well, so I took a taxi," replied Luca as she took a piece of bread for Tommy.
The kids loved the bread she made.
"Thank you, Ms. Luca," Tommy thanked her and took a big bite of the bread.
"Take my car back to the company later," said Luke. Since she used Amur as an excuse yesterday, she should be out of excuses today, which meant that she would have no choice but to say yes.
"Alright," Luca did not refuse this time as it was difficult to get a taxi at this time of day anyway.
Before she went to bed last night, she thought of where the problem might lie. However, all of the important documents were in the company, so she thought about going to the company earlier to test out her hypothesis.
If her guess was right, the research could carry on.
After breakfast, Zander sent the children to school.
On the other hand, Luca returned to the company in Luke's car.
It was still early, so the parking lot was fairly empty. After Luca got down from the car, she went straight to the other side of the parking lot.
Luke reminded her, “The elevator is over there."
“Mr. Crawford, I need to get some stuff from my car. You can go up first," said Luca as she turned back and headed straight toward where her car was parked.
Luke watched as she got into the car and closed the door. He looked away without saying anything and went up by himself.
She was still being evasive. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Even though everyone in the company was already suspecting their relationship, she still wanted to avoid the gossip and rumors.
Luca sat in the car and heaved a sigh of relief after she saw Luke leave.
She looked at her watch and waited for about three minutes before stepping out of the car and into the elevator.
After reaching her floor, Luca stepped out of the elevator and ran into Rhett.
"Good morning, Dr. Craw."
"Good morning, Mr. Link. Please bring the research-related documents to my office," instructed Luca.
Rhett was intrigued as he guessed that she must have a possible lead and immediately said, "Alright, Dr.
Craw. I'll go pull up the data now."
Luca returned to her office and opened her laptop after taking off her heavy coat.
Rhett quickly brought the files she asked for.
"Dr. Craw..." As he was about to ask her something, Luca said, "Go out first and close the door behind you. I won't see anyone this morning."
Rhett was stunned. What would the researchers do, then?
After seeing her open the file with a serious expression, he dared not say anything else, so he followed her orders and turned around to leave.
Luca began to focus on studying the documents and data.
After leaving Luca's office, Rhett returned to the conference room to see that several researchers were already waiting there.
"Mr. Link, is Dr. Craw here yet?" The researchers glanced at the time. Dr. Craw should have arrived by now, but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Dr. Craw has arrived. She asked for a stack of files and is working in her office." Rhett sat in a chair and looked at the researchers resignedly.
"If she's working in her office, then what about us?" asked a researcher. Their research was not making any progress at all, and they had no direction, so they needed Luca's guidance.
"I reckon that Dr. Craw might have a lead. We'll just have to wait and see," said Rhett.
The researchers had no choice but to just randomly flip through files of data.
When it was almost noon, Rhett glanced at the time and wondered if he should order food for Luca. At that very moment, Luca walked into the conference room with a pile of files in her arms.
“Dr. Craw," he stood up as he greeted Luca.
The other researchers also stood up one after another and greeted Luca. "Dr. Craw."
"I've found the root cause of the problem in the research data. Next up, we need to redo the steps for the experiment. Let's try to finish it within a week. Any questions?" Luca looked at them.
"No questions." The researchers were affirmative as the problem they faced before was not knowing where the error was. Now that they knew, there was no problem at all.
"There are some remarks in the data files, and I've divided the work for the research. If there are no questions..." Luca glanced at her wristwatch. "Go have lunch first. We'll officially start work after the lunch break."
"Alright, Dr. Craw." Everyone came to life as the problem they faced was about to be resolved. They finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
Luca looked at Rhett. "Mr. Link, can you order takeaway for me when you go out for lunch?"
"Sure, what would you like, Dr. Craw?" asked Rhett.
"Just get whatever, anything is fine. Hang it on my office door afterward. No need to knock," said Luca. Although she had found the source of the problem in the data, there were still some matters that she had to deal with.
"Got it." After Rhett agreed, he walked out with the others.
Luca looked at the empty meeting room. She took a deep breath and massaged her face.
She still had to keep working.
After returning to her office, Luca heard the phone on her desk ring joyfully.
She immediately picked it up and looked at it. It was Mo.
"Ms. Stone, what's the matter?" asked Luca.
"Dr. Craw, there's an important meeting that you need to attend this afternoon at Watson Biopharmaceuticals. Would you like to come to the company or join the meeting online?" asked Mo. Although Luca's research group was not at the company, they were still employees of Watson Biopharmaceuticals.
"What's it about?" asked Luca.
"It's about Dr. Albus and the company's plans for the next quarter. The manager wishes for you to attend the meeting in person as this meeting is rather important." Mo conveyed the manager's wishes.
Luca raised her eyebrows. Since Mo was trying so hard to persuade her, it would not make sense for her to still insist on attending the meeting online.
