Chapter 1232 Don’t Want To Go For The Off-Site Training


    ''Does he have too much time?''


    After Dr. Cole finished speaking, Luke also said a few words. He mentioned that the spots for the off-


    site training were limited and the opportunity was rare. He wanted them to discuss who should go.


    Everyone looked at each other. ''Does he want us to sell our work and fight for the chance?''


    Luca continued looking down. Most of these so-called off-site training was for people to go have fun,


    which to her, felt meaningless.


    That was why she kept quiet when everyone started the discussion.


    When everyone was trying their best to put their names forward. Dr. Cole noticed that Luca had been


    quiet so he asked her, "Dr. Craw, what do you think?"


    Luca looked at him suspiciously, then nced around and noticed that everyone was looking at her.


    ''What do I think? I have no opinion.'' "I''ll go along with thepany''s arrangements," Luca said.


    Luke''s expression was stern. Her reply had everyone''s gaze shift toward him.


    Dr. Cole nodded and looked at Luke as well, waiting for his response.


    Luke said, "In this case, we''ll make the decision based on your research progress. The two professors


    with the most progress on their research will get this opportunity for off-site training. After half a month,


    everyone will present a progress report." "Okay." Everyone agreed as this method of selection seemed


    to be the most reasonable.


    Luca was even more puzzled. ''This is undoubtedly the fairest way. Luke must have already thought


    things through. Why did he have toe to the meeting, then? Unless...’


    Luca remembered what Abel told herst night. He said that Luke was suspicious of her.


    Luke may seem like he was there for the meeting but in fact, he was there for her. If that was the case,


    Luke would surely talk to her after the meeting.


    After the decision was made, Luke said, "We''re done here."


    Everyone left the meeting room. Luca knew that he wanted to talk to her, so she stayed in her seat.


    After everyone left, she stood up and asked, "Mr. Crawford, is there anything else you''d like to


    discuss?" "Yes." Luke was present at the meeting to talk to her.


    Luca knew that he had something to ask her.


    "Go ahead." She continued to sit. She was in the seat farthest away from Luke''s, so she was a little


    calmer.


    "You went to the Westin Hotel yesterday." Luke did not question her but stated a fact.


    Luca nodded and confessed openly, "Yes, I was there."


    Sure enough, as Abel mentioned, Luke had nted his men around the area. She was spotted as soon


    as she appeared.


    "What were you there for?" Luke asked. The more he pursued it, the more enigmatic the woman in


    front of him became.


    The feeling she gave him was that she was tooplicated and he could not wait to find out more


    about her.


    "It has nothing to do with you nor thepany," Luca said, choosing not to answer. No matter what she


    said, he would still pursue the matter. At least if she chose to keep quiet, he would not be able to find


    out much.


    After all, Abel would never let him find out about his ns.


    Luke was dumbfounded. The matter was of a private nature. Even if he was her boss, he had no right


    to intervene.


    When Luca saw that he was staying silent, she stood up and left the meeting room.


    Luke was left sitting in the huge meeting room alone with a gloomy look on his face.


    After Luca left the meeting room, she walked back to her office. Rhett stood at the door of the office


    waiting for her. Seeing that she had returned, he said, "Dr. Craw, these are the documents that you


    requested."


    Luca nodded and lifted her chin. "Let''s talk inside." "Okay," Rhett followed her into her office.


    Luca closed the door and sat down before flipping through the documents that he had prepared. After


    she read through it, she said, "There was a meeting with management today. It seems there are two


    spots for off-site training." "Have they chosen the candidates?" Rhett asked.


    "Not yet. Mr. Crawford decided to make the selection based on everyone''s research progress. See if


    you can find out more about how the other professors are doing," Luca said. She wanted to know the


    research progress of each researcher so that she could make adjustments ordingly.


    She did not want the spot.


    Rhett touched his head and mistakenly thought that Luca wanted him to learn more about the others''


    progress because she wanted to go for the training. He nodded and promised her, "Okay, I’ll try my


    best."


    The Technical Department had hired a group of new assistants, which meant that a research assistant


    reported to each researcher. He was friendly with the assistants, so it would not pose much of a


    challenge for him to find out more.


    "Very well. Thanks for going through the trouble. I have some matters to attend to and will go to the


    laboratory in an hour. Clean up the data." Luca picked up the research data that had been cleaned up


    the day prior and handed it to Rhett.


    "Dr. Craw..." Rhett took the files over with some doubts in his mind. ''Wasn''t the data cleaned up


    yesterday?1 "What’s the matter?" Luca looked at him.


    "It’s nothing. I’ll attend to it now." Rhett did not say anything. He was happy to go along with her orders.


    Luca was not one to make mistakes, so he thought that she asked him to clean up the data again


    because there was an issue with it.


    After Rhett left with a pile of documents, Luca leaned back in the chair. She had nothing to do and just


    did not want to run experiments.


    She did not want to continue with the research now that she knew the selection for the off-site training


    would be based on the progress of the researchers'' experiments.


    Luca decided to take it easy for at least half a month.


    Even if she did not ask Rhett to suss things out, Luca was pretty sure that she was ahead of everyone.

    The other professors had to start their research from scratch while her research was a follow-up of


    Shanks’ research. Her research was backed with experimental data and various supportive documents,


    so there would not be many issues.


    Her experiments would not fail as often as the other professors’ experiments.


    Luca ced one hand beneath her chin and was deep in thought. ''I don''t want to go for the off-site


    training... What should I do?’


    Hospital.


    After a rough night, Bianca''s temperature returned to normal. The moment she opened her eyes, she


    felt like she had gone through a near-death experience.


    With the maid’s help, she took a shower, changed into a new patient’s gown, and then sat on the bed.


    Bianca took her temperature with the thermometer. Her body temperature was now 98 degrees, which


    was normal.


    "Madam, your body temperature is back to normal. That’s great!" the maid said happily.


    Bianca did not seem too happy about it because she knew that it was only temporary.


    After she took the pill, she would only recover after having a recurrent fever for a whole month.


    When Bianca felt that her lips were dry and she wanted to drink water, the nurse walked in and said,


    "Mrs. Crawford, good morning. How are you feeling?" "A lot morefortable," she said.


    "Did you have anything to eat or drink?" the nurse asked as she took out a needle.
