The more Susan thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. She muttered, "No, I''m
going to ask Louis about this. He''s so unsensible. What''s wrong with staying here? Why does he want
to move out?"
The butler watched her leave in a hurry and shook his head helplessly.
Louis was the kind of person who did not fight for anything. It was normal for him to want to move out
after being forced by her to fight for everything every day. ...
After Luke arrived at the office, he immediately asked Jason to schedule a meeting.
The entire management team was expected to be present, including Luca.
After she received the news, Luca packed up the materials she needed for the meeting. As she carried
herptop, she suddenly thought of what Luke had saidst night...
This morning, she ran away and left like an ostrich. However, she knew that she would have to face
him sooner orter...
It was what it was. Although she had to deal with Luke because of work, she still felt ufortable...
Tina knocked on her office door and walked in, "Dr. Craw? I saw that the lights were on in your office
and guessed that you were still here. Don''t you have a meeting? Why are you still sitting here?"
When she saw Tina''s smile, Luca immediately picked up the documents and materials she prepared for
the meeting. "I was just thinking about something..."
Tina suddenly came closer and stared at her face carefully. "Dr. Craw, you..."
Luca touched her face and asked, "What''s wrong?"
"Did you not rest wellst night? Your face is so dry."
"You can tell even after I put on makeup?" Luca rubbed her face unconsciously. She was worried that
Luke would wake up early, so she rushed her makeup and did not cover up the ws carefully. She did
not expect that Tina would notice it at a nce.
Tina nodded. "I have great eyesight, so I can see everything. Not only is your skin dry, but there are
also dark circles under your eyes. It looks like you didn''t get a good night''s sleep and didn''t put on
makeup carefully this morning. Look, some spots weren''t covered by foundation."
Luca touched where Tina was pointing and said helplessly, "I went out in a hurry in the morning, I didn''t
pay much attention to my makeup."
"I assume you don''t have anything to touch up your makeup? I''ll lend you my makeup. You must look
your best in front of everyone for the meetingter." Tina handed thepact foundation in her pocket
to Luca.
Luca took it, thanked her, then touched up her makeup. She looked at herself in the mirror and realized
that her makeup was indeed not done properly.
"Thank you." After she was done, she handed the foundation back to Tina.
Tina took it, put it back in her pocket, and said with a smile, "I''m attending today''s meeting too. Shall we
go together?"
Luca nodded and left with Tina.
Tina continued to gossip, "Dr. Craw, why didn''t you sleep wellst night?"
"It''s nothing. It''s just insomnia," Luca said. She could not tell anyone about what Luke said to her the
night before, including Nina. As such, she did not dare to say anything to Tina as well.
Tina thought about it and said, "I think you''re losing sleep over love."
"Don''t joke around. I''m not in love." Luca lowered her gaze and waited in front of the elevator. She
could not admit it even if she was losing sleep over her romantic rtionship.
"I''m not joking. Look at your face. Although your skin is in poor condition, it''s rosy. It looks like love is
coming your way." Tina exposed her.
Luca said helplessly, "I didn''t know that you were a fortune teller as well."
"That''s right, I learned the craft from an olddy. Not only can I tell your fortune from your facial
features, but I can also do palmistry. Dr. Craw, do you want me to take a look? I can do any type of
readings, including romantic rtionships." Tina joked.
"That''s impressive." Luca shook her head helplessly. After talking to Tina, she felt less anxious and
much more energetic.
The two took the elevator down and walked into the conference room together. Almost all of the heads
of various departments were there. Tina quickly put down herptop, distributed the files in her hand to
each executive, and said, " Good morning everyone. Do you want coffee?" "Yes, thank you," several of
the executives responded.
Tina went out to prepare some coffee.
Luca sat on the right side of the CEO''s seat and felt more anxious than ever. When she saw Tina head
out, she stood up and said, "Tina, I''ll help you."
After Tina walked out of the conference room, she looked at Luca and said, "Dr. Craw, I can do it on my
own. I''m good without your help."
"Experiments are my forte. It''s not my forte to sit next to the CEO and take notes of the meeting. I''m not
comfortable with how those executives are looking at me," Luca exined and helped Tina make
coffee.
Tina said cheekily, "It''s not the first time you''ve sat there, so why are you nervous?"
"I don''t know either. Sitting there makes me feel like I''m being interviewed for university. It''s very
ufortable. Maybe it''s because I''m not a professional in this and was pulled in at thest minute,”
Luca exined.

"Don''t put yourself down! Those in the management team of T Corporation are of high capability. You
sitting next to them means that the boss recognizes your ability. Be confident in yourself." Tina
comforted her.
Luca shook his head. ''Luke acknowledged my capability?''
Before that, she thought that Luke got her involved because of ack of manpower. He could not trust
strangers, so he chose her.
Later, she thought these arrangements were made because Luke was used to her.
However, what he said the night before made her realize that Luke''s arrangement might not be an
endorsement of her ability but because he had ulterior motives.
It was because he wanted to get close to her so that he could monitor her all the time. Even if it was not
to monitor her, he definitely had other motives.
As such, Luca felt out of ce when she sat there.
She felt that she should not be sitting there. The confidence she had in the past was inexplicably
disappearing little by little.
In the conference room.
An executive watched Luca go out with Tina and started to gossip with his colleagues. "This trantor
looks young. The boss seems to pay a lot of attention to her. Have you heard anything about her?"
"What could we possibly hear? She''s just a professor working in the research room downstairs who
happened to have studied in Russia and has fair trantion skills. It just so happened that our Russian
trantor is on maternity leave, so this task fell on her head."
"I heard the same but don''t you think it''s strange? A young woman like her has that kind of ability?" the
executive questioned. "She''s a research professor downstairs. I think it''s interesting that she''s here. I
won''t believe it if someone says that she''s not somewhat involved with Mr. Crawford."
"She does look young but I heard that this woman is actually about the same age as Mr. Crawford,
maybe just a few years younger. I think she truly has the capability."
