Chapter 1171

Half an hour later, the driver woke Bianca up and told her that she had arrived. She opened her eyes
and got out of the car after she paid. She did not ask the driver to stop the car in front of the company but rather at a nearby office
building. Luca looked at the reporters guarding the entrance of the pharmaceutical company and shook her
head helplessly. She knew that this would happen, so she asked to get out of the car at another
office building. She chose to enter the underground parking lot from the side entrance and then head upstairs after
scanning her fingerprint. After stepping out of the elevator, Luca clocked in and it showed that she was late. However, she did
not care. She had mentioned to Rhett that she was going to be late. He would have relayed the message to
Dr. Cole. Luca walked back to the office, and when she just sat down, someone knocked on her office door.
"Come in," she said Mo opened the door and was surprised to see Luca sitting in the office chair. After she saw the news
last night, she thought that Luca would not come to work today. When she saw that Luca had clocked in, she thought that it was an error. "What's the matter?” Luca asked nonchalantly when she saw her surprised expression. "Dr. Craw, all the professors are having a meeting in the conference room now. Since you're here,
do join us for the meeting.” Mo snapped out of it and invited Luca. "Okay." Luca wanted to turn her down but all the professors were there. If she did not show up, it
would make it seem like she had special authority. The news on the internet placed her in an awkward situation. She could not afford to make it seem
like she was special. No matter what, she must do the same as everyone else. Otherwise, others
might just say that she joined the company through the back door. If that happened, no one would believe her when she said that she had nothing to do with Luke.
“Will Luke be there too?" Luca remembered that when she was at the hospital's entrance, Luke
mentioned that he was on the way to the office. It was likely that he was at work too. “Is he presiding over the meeting?’ "Dr. Craw?" Mo looked at Luca, who did not respond after agreeing to attend. She called out to her
softly. "Let's go." Luca returned to her senses, took her laptop, and walked out of the office. Mo immediately followed behind her at a steady pace while looking at her slim figure. Luca was a beautiful woman with a stunning body. Mo was not surprised that Luca was Luke's
mistress. The two opened the door and walked into the meeting room. When Luca saw Dr. Cole seated at the front, she was relieved and smiled faintly. She apologized and
said, "Sorry, I'm late.” "Sit down.” Dr. Cole looked calm. After all, he was the head of the department. Even if he knew
about her and Luke, he could not show any excessive emotions. He just asked her to sit down. Luca found her seat and sat down. Dr. Cole continued with the meeting. Rhett handed the meeting outline and coffee to Luca. "Dr. Craw, this is your coffee, and this is the
meeting outline.” "Thank you.” She thanked him softly. Rhett blushed, smiled, and sat back in his seat. Mo sneered when she saw the scene. Judging from Rhett's expression, she was 100% sure that he
was interested in Luca. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Fɪndηovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Men were all over her just because she was good-looking Mo felt something off in her heart but could not show it. All she could do was sit in the assistant's
seat. Luca took a sip of coffee and looked at the meeting outline that Rhett handed over. He had
carefully annotated the topics that had already passed. All that was left on the agenda was the
matter of hiring a personal assistant for each professor. Dr. Cole told them that the company would do a round of recruitment and each professor would
get to choose their own assistant. Dr. Cole asked for feedback. The other researchers had no opinion, nor did Luca. After the meeting, Luca picked up her laptop and returned to her office. She felt the piercing gazes of the professors around her, but she did not take it to heart. She would
be exhausted if she cared about what others thought about her. Luca looked calm and returned to the office. Before she could sit down, Amur messaged her. She opened her private mailbox and clicked on the email to view it. Amur knew about Queenie's identity, so he prioritized the matter involving Queenie. Johann had arranged for Queenie’s hospitalization so that he could run a toxicology test on her.
Luca chuckled softly. When she learned that Queenie was not sick because of her concoction, her
anxiety evaporated into thin air. She guessed that Johann was doing a check-up on Queenie because of the concoction she
prescribed. Johann was smart, so she was sure that he would have figured out what the prescription
was for. Regardless of whether the concoction worked, she was happy that they now understood the cause
of Queenie's sickness. Luca closed the email and then deleted it, leaving no trace of it behind. She estimated that with Johann's speed, the toxicology test should be out in less than 24 hours. She
was confident in her diagnosis, so she had hope that Queenie would get better soon enough As for how Queenie was poisoned, Luca believed that Luke would figure it out. Knock, knock. The knock on the door interrupted Luca's thoughts. "Come in," Luca snapped out of it and said to whoever was outside her door. Rhett pushed the door open and walked in while holding a cup of coffee in his hand. "Mr. Link, what's the matter?" Luca asked. "Dr. Craw, would you like some coffee?" Rhett asked while raising the cup of coffee in his hand.
"Oh, thank you.” Luca happened to feel a little sleepy, so the coffee came at the right time. "Dr. Craw, I have something to tell you.” Rhett carefully put the coffee on the table without making a
sound. "What's the matter?” Luca knew he came for something. That was why he brought over a cup of
coffee. "I want to assist you with your project,” Rhett said. After listening to Luca's report during the
meeting, he was very interested in her research project and wanted to work on it with her. "Okay," Luca agreed. "Really?" Rhett thought he would have to convince her. He did not expect that she would agree so
easily. Every researcher would have a research assistant working alongside them. Although Luca was young
and did not have as much research experience as other researchers, Rhett firmly believed that he
would learn a lot more by working with her instead of other researchers. "Anything else?" Luca turned around, opened the safe behind her, and took out the research
materials inside. After a few days of working together, she felt that Rhett was a suitable candidate to work with her
on her project. Hence, she agreed without a second thought. "That's all. Thank you, Dr. Craw." Rhett bowed to her, then turned around and walked out of the
office. He walked gently for fear of disturbing Luca's thoughts. Once her office door was closed, Luca stopped working and shook her head helplessly. Since she stepped into the office, others had been staring at her. Rhett was the only one who did
not look at her differently.
