Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle

Chapter 1687

The front desk receptionist of T Corporation had gone home. The security guard was the only one who was left.

Luca did not bring her employee card but the security guard recognized her and swiped her in.

Before she arrived at the elevator, Luke called. Luca answered, and his low voice said, "Cto my office."

"Okay," Luca responded, put the phone back in her pocket, and took the elevator to his office floor.

The lights on the floor were bright. When she walked out of the elevator and walked past Jason's office, she saw that he was still working overtime. The entire T Corporation was working hard for the Europe project, while she was the only one who had nothing to do.

Jason looked at her and smiled politely. "Dr. Craw, why are you here?"

"Mr. Crawford askedto come," Luca replied. She noticed that Jason's desk was full of stacks of documents. As Luke's assistant, he had to deal with many documents to begin with. She did not have to think much to know that there were going to be more documents on Luke's desk.

"Oh, in that case, the boss is in the office. You can head in," Jason said.

Luca thanked him, and when she continued to walk forward, she heard him say, "By the way, the boss doesn't seem to be in a good mood today. Do be mindful."

‘Luke is in a bad mood?

‘Did something go wrong at work? Otherwise, he wouldn't be in a bad mood.'

"Okay, I won't provoke him," Luca said. Even after many years, she still knew how to avoid the minefields around Luke.

She walked to the office entrance and knocked. "Mr. Crawford, it's me, Luca."

"Cin." Luke's voice sounded.

Luca took a deep breath, pushed the door, and walked in. He said, "Close the door."

She obediently closed the office door. The moment the thick door was closed, the two of them were alone.

The sound of him typing on the keyboard went on. Luca stood at the door and watched him type on the keyboard. She guessed that he was not dealing with documents but rather, discussing work with others. She did not make a sound and stood there like a wooden statue.

Luke said, "Sit. Don't stand there." Only then did Luca move. She sat in the seat opposite him. She looked at the man who was busy discussing with others and did not say a word.

After a while, Luke closed the chat and looked at Luca after he finished assigning work to others.

Luca was also looking at him. She lowered her gaze the moment their eyes met.

Luke's gaze was deep with a hint of indifference. After looking into his eyes for a while, it seemed as though he was able to see through her secrets.

"Mr. Crawford, did you askto chere for work?" she asked.

Luke stared at her for two seconds, took out two black folders from the pile of documents, and handed them over. "The company's translator is facing shealth issues and is still on leave. I need you to translate these two documents."

It turned out that he needed her to help with translation work...

Luca breathed a sigh of relief. She picked up the folders, opened them, and glanced at the contents of the documents. Both documents were in Russian. They were fairly thick with a lot of pages. "Mr.

Crawford, when do you need these two documents?”

"The sooner the better," Luke said.

Luca nodded and held the document in her arms. "I'll finish them as soon as possible. If there's nothing else, I'll go out and get on with the task."

"I still have something to say," Luke said.

Luca was stunned at how direct he was. Right after she stood up, she sat down again and waited for him to speak.

"Aunt Wanda said the medicine you prescribed worked for Old Man Rayne?" Luke asked.

"Yes. As long as he keeps taking it, Old Man Rayne will feel much better," Luca said. She felt a little regretful after learning about how Old Man Rayne had been suffering from this chronic disease for too long and even missed the best timing for treatment. Even if she treated him now, he may not be able to recover. She could only help him manage the symptoms.

After all, Old Man Rayne was old. If he started treatment, it would be very risky and painful.

Luca did not want to see Old Man Rayne having to suffer at his age.

"That's wonderful. Also, be careful of Marie in the next few days," Luke said.

Luca suddenly looked at him.

Luke noticed the surprise in her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Crawford, do you know something?" Luca asked cautiously.

"Marie stopped you at the community's entrance today," Luke said.

Luca's expression changed. ‘He's still following me?' She felt uncomfortable when she thought about how his previous concern and warmth toward her were all fake. He was still following her. She knew she had wronged Luke but she could not control her emotions the moment she heard that. "Mr. Crawford, if you don't trust me, you don't have to hire me."

Luke noticed the disappointment in her eyes, as well as the faint trace of sadness. He explained nonchalantly, "My men who are tasked to protect the Rayne family coincidentally saw you."

Luca was stunned...

He was not monitoring and tracking her but was protecting the Rayne family.

The emotions in Luca's heart turned into guilt and sadness after his explanation...

In fact, it was only right for Luke to get his men to follow her. After all, she was Luca, not Bianca. On top of that, she approached him with bad intentions when she cto work at T Corporation...

"Sorry, I thought that—" Luca subconsciously apologized, thinking that she should not have thrown her temper at him.

Luke interrupted her and said, "When my driver picked you up, they were standing nearby. Be careful. Even if you're agile, you can't guard against their schemes."

"They were waiting for me?" Luca was shocked. She thought that Marie would have been chased away by the security guards. She did not expect her and her friends to be waiting nearby the entire time.

‘Were they waiting for me?'

"They waited from morning to evening without leaving." Luke raised his gaze, hid his feelings for her, and asked, "Otherwise, why did you think I sent someone to pick you up?"

Luca understood that he sent someone to pick her up because he learned that Marie and the others were waiting for her at the entrance. That was why he made such an arrangement...

He was attentive and considerate but she...

The more she thought about it, the guiltier she became.

"Thank you, Mr. Crawford." She took a deep breath and thanked him.

Luke opened a file and continued to work as if he did not hear what she said.

Luca felt that the awkwardness in the air was spreading. She regretted saying what she said.

Luke had always been a suspicious person. If he continued to get people to monitor and investigate her, she would definitely understand. Why did she feel that way just now?

That was who he was.
