Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel 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, "Come to 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 asked me to 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."

"Come in." 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 ask me to come here 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 some health 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."
