After a while, Luca adjusted her posture. This time, she put theptop on herp and lowered her head


    to trante the document.


    She felt a slight pain in her neck after working like this for a while.


    Luca wondered how Luke did it. He always sat on the sofa to go through the documents on hisptop


    in an upright posture and never seemed tired.


    However, now that she was doing it, she was very tired.


    Luca could not take it any longer and patted herself on the back. She looked up at Luke, who was


    concentrating on reviewing documents.


    She pursed her lips and thought about it for a while before cing theptop on the coffee table. She


    then squatted on the floor.

    She felt much morefortable like this. She was feeling much morefortable working at this


    heightpared to when she was sitting on the sofa...


    Luca had just squatted for a few seconds when she heard Luke say, "Get up."


    She raised her head and met his gaze. He was looking at her while speaking...


    Luca exined herself, "Mr. Crawford, I''ll just squat for a short while..."


    "What will others think if theye in and see you like this?" Luke''s tone was cold without any warmth.


    It was a stark differencepared to how he had acted in the afternoon.


    Luca thought to herself that it was not the best image to present. However, those who went into Luke''s


    office would knock on the door. If someone knocked on the door, she would just get up and it would not


    affect anyone at all.


    However, she knew that he would never ept this exnation.


    Luca had no choice but to stand up and sit on the sofa. She only squatted for a while, so her feet were


    not numb. However, she felt a little tired.


    "If it''s ufortable to work there. You can sit and work here." Luke pointed to the seat opposite him


    and gave her one more chance to choose.


    Luca was no longer stubborn after seeing her work efficiency decrease. She put the document on the


    laptop''s keyboard, walked to the opposite side of him, and sat down.


    If she continued working on the sofa, her efficiency would be poor and she would have to work


    overtime.


    Luca did not want to work overtime. She just wanted to quickly trante the rest of the document and


    then get off work.


    Luke watched her sit across from him. He flipped through another page of the document he was


    holding and continued to scan through it.


    After Luca set everything up, she continued to work.


    It was lunch break but neither of them had the intention to take a break. They worked silently and did


    not speak to each other until Luca''sptop notified her that the battery was low.


    She stopped her trantion work and nced at Luke. She had apanyptop and all of the


    employees used the same model, so she assumed that Luke would have a charger with him.


    "Mr. Crawford, do you have aptop charger?" Luca broke the silence.


    Luke nced at herptop. His workptop was different from the brand used by thepany''s


    employees. He shook his head, picked up the phone, and instructed Jason, "Bring me aptop


    charger."


    After a while, Jason walked in with a charger.


    "Boss, here''s the charger you asked for." He put the charger on the table.


    Luke nodded.


    Seeing that Luke had no further instructions, Jason left the office.


    Luca plugged in the charger and wanted to connect it to the power socket but she had a problem.


    There were no power sockets on her side.


    The sockets were all on Luke''s side.


    "Mr. Crawford, can I trouble you to help me?" Luca picked up the end that was going to be connected


    to the socket and handed it to him.


    Luke took it and helped her plug it in.


    The screen of herptop suddenly lit up. Luca saw it and resumed her trantion work.


    At three o''clock in the afternoon, Jason called Luke through the internal line. "Boss, the front desk


    called and said that Ms. Tia is in the lobby. Do you want to meet her?"


    The volume was a little loud and Luca could hear everything.


    ''Tia. Is she here to ask Luke for credit?''


    Luca remembered that Jason mentioned she had drunk with the Russians the night before. It was likely


    that they had taken advantage of her.


    "No, tell her that I''m busy." Luke turned the request down without a second thought.


    Jason was taken back. ''How could the boss reject Ms. Tia after asking her for help? He refused to meet


    her without even thinking about it... How ruthless...''


    He replied, "Okay, I know what to do."


    As soon as Luke hung up the call, Jason immediately replied to the front desk, "The boss has


    something to do now. ou can send her away."


    After the front desk receptionist received the instructions from Jason, she said politely to Tia, "Ms. Tia,


    our boss is in a meeting now and has no time to see you today. Would you like to make an appointment


    for another day?"


    When Tia heard that, her expression changed.


    The man who was in contact with her yesterday was unavable today? Was he telling her that she


    meant nothing to him after she helped him entertain the Russians?


    Tia could not believe it. She was unwilling to believe that Luke took advantage of her. She told herself


    that he was probably busy with work.


    ''So what if he''s busy? I have no clients today anyway. I have the time to wait.''


    Tia had given up many clients who wanted to consult with her to allow more opportunities and time for


    her to be in contact with Luke. She wanted to make him be more attentive to herself.


    Therefore, Tia was not willing to give up.


    "He''s in a meeting? That''s okay, I can wait," she said, not intending to leave.


    The front desk receptionist was not sure how to proceed. Jason meant for her to shoo Tia away but


    even after she used the excuse that Luke was in a meeting, she could not send Tia on her merry way.


    She looked at Tia with a smile on her face. Women like her who pestered their boss were annoying.


    They seemed to think that they would get special treatment after meeting him once or twice.


    The front desk receptionist said, "Ms. Tia, please wait here. Once the boss'' meeting is over, I''ll inform


    him again."


    "Wait here? I''m a friend of your boss. I helped him deal with some business partners previously. If I


    have to wait, I should wait in the reception room upstairs." Tia immediatelyunched an attack.


    The people waiting here were people who wanted to work with Luke. They were people who were


    waiting for business opportunities.


    ''I''m nothing like these peasants.''


    These people just wanted to get a piece of the pie from Luke, while she had done everything in her


    ability to help Luke.


    "Uh, give me a moment." The front desk receptionist could not do anything but did not dare to let Tia up


    either. She called Jason.


    After he heard what the front desk receptionist said, Jason sighed upon realizing they were being


    cornered.


    Their boss wanted to quietly kick thedder but the dder'' was unrelenting and difficult to deal with.


    In desperation, Jason replied, "Ask her to wait in the reception room on the third floor. Also, tell her that


    you''ll only know if the boss is free after he''s done with his meeting."
