Matysh watched Ethan leave hurriedly from behind with a gloomy expression on his face.
If he managed to get out of here, he would definitely leverage the power of his family and bring the
Crawford family to utter ruins!
Watson Biopharmaceuticals.
Luca sat in her office, handling a pile of documents.
She could feel her head throbbing when she was going through the documents after conducting
numerous experiments.
Luca picked up thendline on her desk and dialed her assistant''s number. "Ms. Stone, pleasee to
my office."
"Alright, Dr. Craw," replied Mo Stone. She hung up the phone and headed to Luca''s office.
She knocked on Luca''s office door.
"Come in."
Mo Stone pushed the door open and politely asked, "Dr. Craw, what can I do for you?"
"These documents have been sorted out. Help me take them out and make two copies of each. I need
to deliver them to T Corporation," Luca pointed at the files in front of her.
Since Watson Pharmaceuticals did not have a general manager at the moment, all the important
documents had to be reviewed by Luke himself.
After Luca finished preparing the budget report for the research funding application, she also had to
hand it to Luke and wait for his approval.
"Alright, Dr. Craw. I''ll take care of it right away," replied Mo Stone as she disyed a diligent and
responsible work attitude. She picked up the documents, returned to the assistant''s office, and began
photocopying the documents.
Inside the assistant''s office, Rhett was also busy with his work. There were a few professors'' assistants
there too.
"Are these Dr. Craw''s documents?" asked Rhett. Luca was the only one in the entire office who had a
pile of documents to be copied.
There were many tedious paperwork tasks for her to deal with before the start of a new project.
"Yes, they''re all Dr. Craw''s. Is it for the research funding application?" Mo Stone nced at the
contents of the documents and made a guess.
Dr. Jackson''s assistant could not help but speak in an envious tone, "Dr. Craw is truly amazing. She
finished one project so quickly and barely took a break, yet now she''s starting another research
project."
"Rhett, you''re lucky to be working with Dr. Craw. But I guess you''re also really busy, huh?" Dr.
Linwood''s assistant went along and teased him.
"It''s all work. It''s not like what you said." Rhett did not answer their questions.
"How much research funding is Dr. Craw applying this time?" asked Dr. Jackson''s assistant.
Rhett remained silent.
Mo Stone knew the amount, but she did not answer either.
Dr. Jackson''s assistant eventually turned to Mo Stone and asked, "Ms. Stone?"
"That should be kept within Dr. Craw''s research team. Why? Are you thinking of moving to another
team?" Mo Stone did not answer his question. Everyone was highly sensitive to this now after what
happened to the general manager.
Even though it was not ssified information, Mo Stone knew Luca''s leadership style prioritized
confidentiality. She did not want to risk losing her job. That was why she avoided mentioning it.
"Haha, look at what you''re saying. Can I switch teams even if I want to? I don''t have the qualifications
or experience to be a researcher," Dr. Jackson''s assistantughed awkwardly.
In this field, they were only eligible to be researchers once they had enough experience.
Fresh graduates like them who had just started the job could only be research professors'' assistants.
They had no choice but to do some grunt work under the professors'' guidance.
Who would want to be an assistant if they could be a researcher?
Being an assistant meant low wages and a heavy workload. Although they could participate in
experiments, their involvement was limited to peripheral tasks. If the professor was kind enough, they
might get some guidance. If it was the other way around, they would have to figure things out on their
own while dealing with a pile of paperwork.
Assistants like Rhett, who worked closely with Luca in theboratory and were responsible for many
research tasks, were rare.
Everyone envied Rhett for having apetent and good-tempered boss who delegated research work
to assistants.
If Rhett were to resign, they would definitely apply for a transfer immediately.
However, Rhett had no such ns, so how could they get the chance? Thepany only allocated
one assistant to each research professor.
There was no way they couldpete with him.
"So, are you still curious about Dr. Craw''s research? Wait until she finalizes everything and it''ll be
revealed in the next meeting.” Mo Stone dropped a hint, implying that it was not something he should
be curious about.
Although it was not ssified information, curiosity could kill the cat.
Deep down, Rhett agreed with Mo Stone. These people had nothing better to do.
Dr. Linwood''s assistant immediately stood up and headed toward the office entrance. "I need to
prepare research records for Dr. Linwood."
Dr. Jackson''s research team member wore a slightly awkward expression and changed the subject.
"Have you heard that thepany ns to hire another research professor?"
Mo Stone paused for a moment. She knew about this.
However, it was not decided yet.
She felt that the difference between having one more or one fewer research professor would not bring
a significant impact on Watson Biopharmaceuticals. It was simr to whether the position of general
manager was filled or vacant. It did not have much impact.
The department leaders appointed by Luke, whether it was Jason or someone else, were sitting
securely in their respective positions. No one dared to make trouble.
Regardless of Luke or any other general manager, the subordinates continued to handle thepany''s
affairs day in and day out.
Now, there were rumors that thepany would be hiring a new research professor.
There was news of a new general manager not long ago too!
It seemed that actions were being taken, but the candidates who applied did not meet Luke''s
expectations. That was why the general manager''s position remained vacant.
"Why aren''t you talking?" Mo Stone, Rhett, and Dr. Jackson''s assistant were the only ones in the office.
None of them spoke, so Dr. Jackson''s assistant found it boring.
"I heard about it. Are you nning to switch teams if they hire a new research professor?" asked Mo
Stone.
"Why do you keep asking me if I''m switching teams? I''m doing fine here with Dr. Jackson," Dr.
Jackson''s assistant frowned. Dr. Jackson was currently the head of the department. Even though the
official appointment had not been made yet, it was only a matter of time.
What was the point of leaving someone who was in charge for someone new?
"Why are you so curious since you''re not switching teams?" Mo Stone ced the copied documents
into their respective folders.
"It just feels a bit boring here. I just thought I''d find something to talk about," Dr. Jackson''s assistant
replied awkwardly.
There was more activity andmunication among colleagues in the other offices.
Their assistant''s office, on the other hand, was usually quiet.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
asional exchanges were work-rted, and they did not spend much time in the office. Their job
was to assist the research professors with document processing whenever they were in the office.
Dr. Jackson''s assistant was in the office today because Dr. Jackson had gone back to the university for
a meeting. There was not much for him to do in theboratory.
The other researchers also found him a hindrance when he tried to help. He had no choice but to stay
in the office.
"We''re busy," said Mo Stone, finally finishing the task of making duplicate copies of the documents as
requested. Then, she left with the documents in her arms.
Dr. Jackson''s assistant rubbed his nose and shifted his gaze to Rhett.
"Mr. Link?" He gently called out his name.
"Yes?" Rhett did not look up.
"Do you think Dr. Craw is easy to get along with?" asked Dr. Jackson''s assistant.
"Yes," Rhett continued to work on the documents. The way he spoke gave the impression of ack of
genuine effort.
