Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 2642 Made Her Proud

It was Tina who answered the call in the secretary's office. “Hello, it's Tina here.”

"Hello, Ms. Tina. Dr. Craw is at the front desk, asking to see Mr. Crawford. May I know if Mr. Crawford is available now?" the receptionist asked. Visitors who came to the office seldom looked for Luke. They usually would only look for Jason and the secretaries working in the secretary's office "Dr. Craw? Let her in,” replied Tina. Even though Luke was not in his office now, Tina dared not to stop Luca.

"Alright. Got it.” The receptionist hung up the call. She smiled and looked at Luca, “Dr. Craw, Ms. Tina is upstairs waiting for you.”

“Okay, thank you.” After Luca thanked her, she immediately headed upstairs and arrived at the floor where the president's office was.

Tina was waiting for her in the elevator hall.

"Dr. Craw, you're here,” Tina smiled and greeted Luca when she saw her walking out of the elevator. "Yes. I have something to discuss with Mr. Crawford,” replied Luca.

"He's having a meeting now. Mr. Doyle isn't here either. How about this? Let me take you to Boss’ office first. You can wait there. There are ten minutes left until the meeting ends." Tina glanced at the time and speculated.

“It'd be better for me to wait at the lounge.” Luca shook her head when Tina suggested taking her to Luke's office

Not everyone was allowed to enter Luke's office. Besides, she was not Bianca now. She had to avoid arousing any suspicion.

“I think it'll be better for you to head to Boss’ office right away. Let's go.” Tina led Luca to Luke's office. She pushed the door open and said, “Come in. Let me get you something. Do you prefer coffee or milk?"

“I'd like a glass of milk, please.” Luca had no choice but to enter the office. Then, she stiffened as she sat on the sofa.

“Sure. Just a moment.” Tina left the office and strode off to the pantry.

Tina knew Luca did not like packaged milk. That was why she prepared the glass of milk with milk powder.

Cheryl noticed that Luke's office door was left open when she walked past Luke's office while carrying some documents in her hands. Hence, she knocked on the door and entered the office. Then, Cheryl and Luca happened to look at each other.

"Dr. Craw?” Cheryl raised her brows. “Why are you here? Didn't you move back to Watson Biopharmaceuticals?”

Luca frowned. Cheryl sounded like she was questioning why she suddenly showed up in Luke's office.

What she meant between the lines was that Luke's office was not a place Luca could enter as she liked.

"I have something to discuss with Mr. Crawford,” Luca answered out of politeness.

“Mr. Crawford is in a meeting now. How could you sit in his office alone? Let me take you to the lounge.” Cheryl hated Luca, especially now when she saw Luca breaking the company’s rules. She found it disgusting that Luca was waiting for Luke in his office alone.

Cheryl could not help but wonder if Luca really thought that something was going on between her and Luke. Did that give her permission to enter Luke's office as she wished?

Luca rose to her feet. Before she could say anything, she heard Tina saying, “I was the one who led Dr. Craw here.”

Cheryl turned around and saw Tina carrying a glass of milk. She then walked into Luke's office. Cheryl deliberately spoke in a serious tone, “How could you let someone into Boss’ office without his permission?”

"What if that's what he asked for?” Tina placed the glass of milk on the coffee table and said, “Dr. Craw, here's your milk.”

“Boss?” Cheryl refused to believe what Tina said. Everyone working on the same floor knew that Luke was in a meeting.

Even the secretaries who wanted to deliver the documents here would be stopped as Luke was not in the office. Even his secretaries could not enter his office without his permission.

“It was Boss’ request.” Tina took her phone out and showed Cheryl her conversation with Luke. Tina had texted Luke and reported to him that Luca was here.

Luke replied to her with two simple words: [My office.]

Hence, it was not Tina who took the liberty to do so.

“I didn’t know it was Boss" instruction. Now please excuse me, I still have work to do.” Cheryl tucked her hair behind her ear to ease her awkwardness.

Before Cheryl left, Tina added, “Ms. Lindsey, we're professional secretaries. Please don't doubt my professionalism.”

Cheryl did not reply to her. Her footsteps quickened as though she did not hear what Tina said to her.

Tina let out a sigh of relief and apologized, “That was odd. I'm sorry, Dr. Craw.”

“It's okay.” Luca shook her head. Cheryl was trying to single her out, but what she said was right.

If Tina had not informed Luke in advance, Luca should not be waiting for Luke in his office.

"Take a seat. The meeting will probably end soon. I have to make an international call. Please excuse me," said Tina. Then, she picked up a plate of delicate-looking cookies and placed it on the coffee table.

“Can you make the call here?” asked Luca. Cheryl was right. This was Luke's office.

Important confidential information was kept here.

Hence, Luca was reluctant to be alone in his office as people might misunderstand her.

Abel had not instructed her to do anything, and she would not do anything bad to Luke either. Even so, that did not mean the others would not suspect her even if she would not do something like that.

"Dr. Craw, don't worry. You can stay here. You'll be fine.” Tina knew what Luca had in mind, and she comforted her in a soft voice.

“Alright. I'll leave you to your work, then.” Luca had no choice but to say so.

"Okay. Just text me if you need anything.” Tina smiled and walked out of Luke's office.

Luca sat on the sofa. She picked up the finance magazine beside her and read it.

There were several finance magazines and business newspapers placed here every day. Luke would take some time to read the important news every day no matter how busy he was.

Luca looked up and saw the piles of documents placed on his office desk. She heaved a sigh. Then, she picked up the glass and took a sip of the milk.

Luke was the third-generation son of an affluent family.

However, he was nothing like the others from wealthy families, who were lazy and lived a lavish lifestyle.

Managing a huge corporation alone must be tiring for Luke.

Luca turned the pages of the finance magazine and realized Luke's portrait was printed on one of the pages.

It was an article about Luke.

The whole article was talking about how T Corporation did a good job in making strategic decisions in developing their market in foreign countries. The company's innovative business model was worth learning from.

Luca gently touched the photo printed on the page.

He had made her proud.

Luca carefully read the article. Even though it was not an interview, the content of the article was profound.

Not only did Luke develop the business in the country steadily, but he got a piece of the pie in the foreign market too.

A proud feeling filled Luca's heart.

This was her man...

He was the center of attention no matter where he went.

As Luca continued to turn the pages, she heard footsteps.

It was not a woman's heels, and it sounded more like the leather shoes of a man. Hence, Luca reckoned that Luke was returning to his office after the meeting.
