Luke paused his gesture while he was turning the pages of the document. Then, he continued to read


    the documents as if nothing had happened. “We have to speed up the progress of the project. We''ll


    need a regr Russian trantor, and we can''t afford any unforeseen circumstances on your part


    anymore."


    Luca, who read between the lines, knew that he had only sent someone to pick her up because he


    wanted to ensure thepany''s project would go on as scheduled.


    After all, tranting was an essential job for overseas projects like this.


    Luca nodded. She stood up with the document in her arms and said, "I got it. I''ll try my best to trante


    these documents."


    "Okay." Luke did not lift his head to look at her.


    Luca was upset. The person in front of her was aloof. That was his true colors, but she could not help


    herself from being unreasonable. She was hoping that the man in front of her could spare a little


    warmth for her.


    However, given her identity and background now, she could not ask for it.


    There was an awkward silence again because of the few simple words he said. Luca carried the folders


    in her arms and grasped them tightly as she watched the man do his work. She took a deep breath and


    said, "Mr. Crawford, if there''s nothing else, I''ll go out to work first."


    "Alright." Luke did not make her stay.


    Luca left the office with the folders in her hands. She had just closed the door when she saw Jason


    walking toward her. He saw Luca and asked, "Dr. Craw, has the boss arranged a job for you?"


    "Yes, some tranting jobs," said Luca while she held the folders in her arms.


    Jason shot a nce at the folders. He recognized the two folders. "I was the one who arranged these


    two folders. They''re quite thick. It''s going to be tough for you."


    "It''s no big deal. Haven''t you eaten yet?" Luca noticed the lunchbox he was carrying in his hands.


    Jason nodded and answered, "Not yet. Everyone on this floor is working overtime. We haven''t eaten


    yet. But this one is for the boss. You''ve juste out from there. Is there anything unusual about him?"


    "Nothing unusual. He''s the same as always," replied Luca. His tone of voice did not change even when


    she was questioning him.


    "Alright, then I''ll send over the lunchbox first. Oh, the renovation work for your office has just been


    completed, and the tools you need have all been arranged. You can use the office anytime you want,"


    Jason said.


    Luca nodded and headed to the office.


    Luca pushed the office door open and switched on the lights. She looked at the decorations inside.


    Clearly, it was just a temporary office, but Jason had decorated it like it was an office for long-term use.


    She entered the office, sat down, and switched on theptop on the table.


    After working for a while, Tina stood at the door and knocked on it. She looked at Luca with a smile on


    her face. “Dr. Craw, may Ie in?"


    Luca lifted her head. She was focused on handling the documents and did not notice Tina''s arrival.


    Luca rose and asked, "It''s you. Of course, you maye in. What''s the matter?"


    Tina came in. She noticed that the office was lit up when she was passing by. She knew that it must be


    Luca who came back to work. Hence, she came here to take a look. Sure enough, it was her.


    "Nothing. I just happened to see youing here to work even though it''s alreadyte. It must be


    tough on you. Oh yes, I''m going to get some coffee. Do you want some?" she asked. Everyone in their


    department had to work overtime during this period, and most of them relied on coffee to keep


    themselves awake.


    Luca shook her head. "It''s alright. I''m not used to drinking coffee at night."


    "But you''ll have to workte. Are you sure you don''t need it?" Tina looked at the two folders on her


    table. Although there were only two, each folder was thick.


    "Can you please get me a ss of juice if that''s okay with you?" Luca said. It had been a long time


    since she drank coffee.


    She was already a light sleeper. If she continued to rely on the coffee to make her stay awake, her


    sleeping quality would be poorer.


    "Sure. Wait a minute." After knowing that Luca preferred juice over coffee, Tina turned around and


    walked out of the office. After a while, she brought her a ss of juice.


    She ced the ss of juice on the table and exined, "It''s toote at night now. There''s only grape


    juice left. Dr. Craw, you don''t mind, right?"


    "I''m fine with anything." Luca picked up the ss of juice and took a sip. The juice was prepared in the


    morning and it was already nighttime now, so the taste would naturally have changed.


    Still, it did not matter. It was just a drink to quench her thirst.


    Tina looked at the two folders and reminded her, saying, "Dr. Craw, you can actually bring these


    documents back to trante. After all, you''re still on sick leave. All you have to do isplete these


    folders in time. Boss wouldn''t say anything about where you do your work."


    Luca flipped the page of the document and said, "I''d better stay in the office to do the work. It''s rted


    to the project, after all. It''d be best if I don''t bring important information and documents out of the


    office."


    Tina thought what she said made sense too. She nced at the swelling on Luca''s face that had not


    recovered. She said in a caring manner, "Alright. Try not to get too tired, then. Your face hasn''t fully


    recovered yet."


    "I will." Luca touched her face unconsciously and smiled at her.


    Tina did not say anything more. She left there holding her cup of coffee in her hands.


    Luca continued to trante the documents.


    There were piles of documents, and the difficulty level was much higher than the previous documents


    that were given to her. Moreover, she had not been working for quite some time, so her progress was a


    little slow.


    When it was eleven o''clock at night, Jason and the others had already gotten off work, while she was


    still sitting there doing her work.


    When Luke got off work, he nced at her when he was passing by her office.


    Indeed, she was still busy at work.


    Bianca used to be serious and responsible when she was working. She was still the same.


    Luke knocked on the office''s door. Luca''s gaze moved away from theptop screen and fell on him.


    "Mr. Crawford?"


    "Time to get off work," Luke said. Given the time now, it would be almost 12 when they returned to the


    apartment.

    Luca nced at the time on theputer screen. It was already sote...


    She nodded and stood up. Since her boss had already gotten off work, there was no need for her to


    work overtime anymore. She saved the tranted documents and switched off theptop. When she


    was about to keep the folders, Luke spoke.


    “Bring the folders back home.”


    Luca was holding the folders and asked him in surprise, "Mr. Crawford, aren''t these confidential?”


    "Did I mention that these are confidential?" Luke questioned her back.


    Luca shook her head. He had indeed never mentioned that. However, she subconsciously thought that


    these documents were confidential.


    "These are just documents that need to be rushed. They''re not confidential. Bring them back. You don''t


    have toe to the office tomorrow. After youplete tranting them at home, just send the copy


    to my email," said Luke.


    Luca heard him and switched on theptop again. Since she did not bring her memory disc, she had to


    send the documents to her email. That way, she would be able to continue tranting the documents at


    home.


    After she hadpleted everything, she switched off theptop again. Then, she shot a nce at the


    door. Luke was already gone.


    He did not wait for her.


    A disappointing feeling slowly surged in her heart.
