Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 1153

After Luca left the CEO's office, she did not go anywhere else other than the elevator lobby.

She was surprised when she saw Luke standing there waiting for the elevator. It had been quite some time, but the elevator had not arrived yet.

It was then that she realized that they were not in T Corporation, and Luke did not have a personal elevator in the Watson Biopharmaceuticals building. It should not have been surprising that Luke would be waiting for some time.

Luke must have heard her footsteps because she was not sneaking, and it would be very suspicious if she tried to run away.

Luca had no other choice but to approach him. "Mr. Crawford."

"Mm." Luke nodded. His eyes remained transfixed on the elevator display. The elevator had not arrived yet.

Luca stood some distance away from him. She thought for a while and asked, "Is Tommy okay?"

"I don't know. I'll have to bring him to the doctor," Luke said. He placed his hands in his pockets, and he looked cool and handsome.

Luca nodded. She was worried about Tommy, but she did not say anything.

The elevator arrived at the top floor. Luke went inside first and held the door open. Seeing that Luca had no intention of going in, he ordered, "Come in."

Luca could not refuse, so she went inside.

Luke pressed the button for the basement parking lot, then pressed the button for the Technical Department.

Luca stood there stiffly. She lifted her head to look at the decreasing numbers on the display.

"Are you worried about Tommy?" Luke said.

"I think I have an affinity with that child," Luca said.

"He wants you to be his godmother." Luke glanced at her side profile. She was wearing light makeup, and she looked like a blooming rose in the wilderness.

"Can I refuse?" Luca said. She could accept that she would not be able to reconcile with her child, but she could not accept that she would be her child's godmother.

"You can," Luke said. The elevator stopped at the Technical Department.

The elevator doors opened, and Luca did not want to stay in the elevator for an extra second.

She breathed a sigh of relief as she heard the elevator closed behind her. She noticed that Cole was standing not far away and looking at her.

"Dr. Kidman." Luca was not interested in office politics, but she had to be polite.

"I learned a lot from your presentation today, Dr. Craw. If you're free, shall we have a chat?" There was a hint of appreciation in Cole's eyes.

He thought that Luca was not very capable, but it turned out that her research held far more value than what he had.

He did not have to think too hard to conclude that Luke had approved a big amount of funding for her.

"Sure." Luca was not fond of that man, but she had to remain diplomatic.

Cole continued, "Mr. Crawford asked you to meet him in his office earlier. Is it about your projects?"

"Yes," Luca replied curtly.

She had just finished speaking when Mo came over and said, "Dr. Cole, Mr. Doyle wants to meet you upstairs."

Cole frowned. "Why is it Mr. Doyle?"

He wanted to speak with Luke about the funding.

"I don't know," Mo replied with a smile.

Cole shot a glance at Luca. Luca got to meet with the CEO, but he only got to meet with the assistant.

Luca noticed that Cole was looking at her. She explained, "Mr. Crawford had to leave because of an emergency."

"I see." Cole clapped his hands and said, "I'll be going up then."

Luca smiled, watched him leave, and went back to her office.
