After Luca walked into the elevator, she did not close the doors right away.
Jason was going to enterter, so she pressed the elevator button and waited for him toe in.
“Thank you," Jason thanked her politely when he saw Luca waiting for him.
“You''re wee. Are you going back to the office, Mr. Doyle?" Luca asked after pressing the elevator
button to her floor.
“Yes." Jason nodded and examined Luca. She was calm when facing Pierre earlier, but a noticeable
difference in emotion could be seen in her eyes now.
“Alright." Luca helped him press the button to his floor.
“Thank you." After Jason thanked her, he could not help but ask, “Dr. Craw, is there something you
want to ask me?"
Since there were so many elevators, there was no need for Luca to wait for him.
Since she waited for him to enter the same elevator as her, there must be something she wanted to
ask. Hence, Jason took the initiative to see what he can help her with.
“Yes, Pierre mentioned the police just now. What''s that about?" Luca looked at Jason and asked
without hesitation.
“Oh, that? It''s about the bidding document incident, Mr. Pierre said he''s caught the person who stole it,
so he had the policee over to prove his innocence to the boss," said Jason.
Luca frowned.
Pierre was definitely involved in the bidding document incident, and Luke would not be fooled so easily.
Finding someone to take his ce was understandable, but he did it so ostentatiously. Was he not
afraid that someone would find out and expose him?
Moreover, T Corporation had yet to announce the theft of the bidding document. It seemed like no
investigations were taking ce either...
Perhaps Luke was investigating secretly, but he could not find anything yet, so he did not announce it
to the public.
If Luke knew that she was the culprit, would he still hug her so intimately as he did before this?
Luca''s silence made Jason think she was worried about Luke, so he said, “Dr. Craw, the boss will
handle this matter, so you don''t have to worry about it."
“By the way, what were you doing downstairs?" Jason continued the conversation by asking. It was not
lunch break, so the employees would usually not go out of thepany at this time. However, it
seemed like Luca was returning from outside just now.
"There was a document I left in my old apartment, so I asked my brother to bring it to me." Luca held
up the bag in her hand and pointed to it.
"I see." Jason nodded as the elevator reached theboratory floor just in time.
With the document in hand, Luca smiled at him and left to go back to theb to continue with the
experiments, whereas Jason continued to ride the elevator upstairs.
After walking out of the elevator, Jason did not return to his office straight away but walked up to the
door of Luke''s office.
The door was not shut, and Luke was sitting in his office chair.
Jason knocked on the door.
"Come in." Luke stared at fluctuations of the stock market disyed on theputer screen without
raising his head.
He had acquired Hampton, and the stock price had started to rise today. Hence, he was keeping an
eye on the fluctuations, lest thepany be taken over by someone else.
"What is it?" asked Luke.
Jason cleared his throat and replied, "Boss, Pierre ran into Dr. Craw when he was about to leave the
building, and he... taunted Dr. Craw with appalling insults..."
Luke''s face fell when he heard Jason''s words. Pierre had once again rubbed him up the wrong way.
"Does he have a death wish?" His voice got even deeper.
Jason nodded in agreement. If Pierre dared to taunt Luca in front of so many people, he was basically
asking for it.
The lesson he was taught before did not seem to be enough.
"Boss, do we need to deal with him?" Jason asked. Although Pierre had gotten stronger within these
three years, to Luke, messing with him was like taking candy from a baby.
It was just that all this while, Luke had never made a move for Percy''s sake.

"He won''t be so smug for long. What''s more important now is Matysh," said Luke.
Jason nodded to show that he understood. They had too many enemies at the moment. Dealing with
them all at once was risky. Besides, the enemy of one''s enemy was their friend.
Luke did not deal with them to not cause even more trouble for himself, and he could not be bothered
to spend unnecessary effort on tasks that did not require much effort at all.
"Boss, I''ll go and continue my work, then," said Jason as he exited the office. Just as he was about to
close the door, he recalled Luca''s matter. Hence, he said, "Boss, there''s still one more thing I haven''t
reported to you."
Luke looked up at him, signaling him to speak.
Jason said, "Dr. Craw looked anxious when she found out Pierre brought the police here to find you.
She was worried that something might''ve happened to you."
Luke''s mood was instantly lifted.
She may seem tough on the inside, but she was actually a soft-hearted woman. She clearly still cared
about him, yet she acted like she did not. How confusing...
However, Luke knew that she was acting difficult because she was being forced to.
All would be fine in the future.
Although Luke did not say a word, Jason could tell that he felt much better now because he knew that
Luca cared for him.
Without saying anything else, Jason closed the door and returned to his office.
It was the evening.
Luca finished her experiment smoothly with the assistance of the previous data. If they maintained this
progress, the drug would soon be able to enter the market.
All her fellow researchers could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. One of them even
suggested getting together for dinner.
Everyone else agreed, then they looked toward Luca.
The researcher who brought it up asked, “Dr. Craw, why don''t you join us?"
“No, thank you. You all have fun. I need to go home." Luca declined their invitation and shook her head.
She was not very good at socializing with strangers. Plus, she was their senior, so agreeing to go with
them would only make them ufortable.
Luca was self-aware, and she wanted to spend more time with the children while she could.
The researchers did not insist after she said no.
Luca said, "I''ll be going home now."
"Okay, Dr. Craw," said the researchers.
Luca walked out of the office with the experiment data in her hands.
A researcher in theboratory could not help but say, "Have you all ever noticed that Dr. Craw has
never participated in any team-building activities? We''ve been working with her for so long, yet we have
never had a single meal with her.."
"You just don''t know anything, do you?" Another researcher smiled mysteriously.
"Know what? Tell me!" The rest looked at him, and even Rhett was intrigued by his words.
