Chapter 1392
In the afternoon, all the research data and equipment were carried onto the moving truck and brought to T Corporation.
Luca did not have a car, so she sat in the car of one of the researchers.
During the ride, the two other researchers in the car expressed their excitement about moving to T Corporation. Their houses were closer downtown, and Watson was relatively far for them.
Luca turned her head to look at the receding scenery outside the window while passively listening to their conversation. She did not want to think about it, but she could not help guessing Luke’s motives for the move.
“We’re almost there,” the driver suddenly said, which brought Luca back to her senses. She suddenly felt a sense of melancholy as the car slowly drove into the basement parking lot.
She could not help but feel that fate had brought her back to T Corporation. After the car cto a stop, she opened the door and stepped out.
Jason had already tasked someone to wait for them at the elevator lobby. After exchanging some pleasantries, the person brought Luca and the others to the twelfth floor.
Luca tried to recall the nof the department that used to occupy the twelfth floor. It did not take too long for her to find the answer.
The entire building belonged to T Corporation, so it was not hard for Luke to shift departments around. The entire eleventh and twelfth floor belonged to Luca’s department.
Rhett had reached the building a little earlier than Luca. He had already surveyed the location, so he went up to Luca and told her, “Dr. Craw, your office is at the end of the corridor. It’s very quiet.”
Luca nodded. Even though Rhett had not been working under Luca for a long time, he already knew her habits.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer office was secluded, but it also meant that she would not be disturbed. That was exactly what she wanted.
The elevator arrived on the twelfth floor. Rhett told her, “I’ll bring you around, Dr. Craw.”
Luca wanted to tell him that she was familiar with every floor of T Corporation, but her current identity did not allow her to do that without raising suspicion. Instead, she did not say anything and followed behind him.
Rhett opened the door to her office and led her inside.
Luca looked around the spacious and brightly-lit office. She wondered if Luke had installed security cameras to spy on her.
‘I’m sure he movedhere to keep a close eye on me…”
Seeing that Luca did not say anything, Rhett asked, “Dr. Craw, if you have any specific requirements, you can tell them to the administrative assistant that Mr. Crawford had assigned to our department. You can let her know anything you want, and she’ll make the appropriate arrangements.”
The office was already well-equipped, and Luca did not think that she was lacking anything. She shook her head and said, “I have everything I need for now. Tell the movers to bring my two boxes to my office first. I want to organize them so that I can resmy research tomorrow.”
Rhett could understand Luca’s worry. The research data had been compromised, and the progress was seriously delayed.
Even though Luke did not blthem, they would still need to meet the deadline.
“Alright, I’ll inform them.” Rhett nodded and left the office.
Luca placed a small cardboard box on the table and began to unpack the documents. She had been carrying that box with her while the others were in the moving truck.
She did not close the door because the movers would be arriving soon.
Jason cin through the door with a smile on his face. “Good afternoon, Dr. Craw. Have you gotten used to the new environment yet?”
Luca turned around and smiled at him. “It’s my first there. I can’t say whether I’m used to this place yet.”
Jason thought that she would try to appease him and say that she had gotten used to the place or that the office was very nice. He did not expect her to give him a candid answer.
“Haha, the conditions here are much better than Watson. I think that you’ll like it a lot better here,” Jason laughed drily.
Luca wondered why Jason was so free to chat up with her. She asked him, “Mr. Doyle, have you found the culprit who made a mess of my lab?”
“I found the security guard on duty that night. He was the only one on duty, so he can’t make up any excuses. Things are looking to be quite easy, so I got someone else to continue with the investigation,” Jason answered. The new mission that Luke tasked him with was much more urgent than the incident at Watson.
That was why Jason delegated the investigation to another trusted assistant.
Luca nodded and did not ask any more questions.
Jason rubbed his chin and asked, “Dr. Craw, aren’t you curious about why I’m not investigating that incident?”
“Mr. Doyle, I’m not your boss, and I’m not a manager. There’s no reason forto know,” Luca replied. She could tell that he was trying to probe her thoughts.
Did Luke tell him to do that?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe guessed that Luke had tasked Jason to investigate the impostor Bianca.
She knew that there was nothing more important to Luke than reuniting with her.
Too bad for Luke, Bianca was given a new identity. Even if Luca was constantly by Luke’s side, she could not tell him that she was the real Bianca.
Jason sank into deep thought. Bianca was not nosy like other people, and she seemed to be interested only in her research. Could she be related somehow to the impostor Bianca?
He also knew that speople were natural-born actors. Luke was one of those people. His expression would never change no matter who or what he faced.
“Haha, that makes sense. Please accept my apology. Sue always wants to know what I’m doing, and I’m used to being asked questions. I thought it was quite awkward when you’re not askingany questions…” Jason explained.
“Would Sue ask you questions about your work?” Luca asked.
Jason’s expression stiffened slightly. He realized that he was inadvertently talking bad about Sue.
He knew that Luca did not have any ulterior motives behind asking that question, but he thought that it was inappropriate for him to let Luca know that he had been divulging company secrets to Sue. Even if
he did not, it would give Luca the impression that Sue was a nosy person.
Jason’s gaze darted to his left and right before he said, “It’s not that. Sue would sometimes ask me questions about work. I guess she’s naturally curious.”
Luca noticed the change in Jason’s expression. She smiled and continued to unpack.
Jason was about to leave when the two movers cinto the office. One of them was carrying two boxes, while the other wheeled in a big crate with Luca’s computer.
“These are your belongings, Ma’am. Where should we put them?” One of the movers asked.
Luca pointed at the coffee table. “You can leave them over there.”
