Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2113

“Yes. They’ve finished their work in Russia. Of course, Dr. Craw is back.” Zoey took a step backward and said, “Ms. Lynn, you may go for lunch first. I have to order takeouts for Dr. Craw and the others.”

Jenni was not planning to let her go. She grabbed Zoey’s hand and asked, “Haven’t you heard?”

“About what?” Zoey was dumbfounded. She pulled her hand back, pretending she did not know that Jenni wanted to gossip about Luca.

“I wonder if you really don’t know about it or you’re just pretending that you don’t know about it. Luca slept in the same suite as Boss when she was in Russia. Now you know why she was able to become the professor of the department and why she was able to come to T Corporation. She did it by sleeping with the boss.” There was a trace of resentment hidden in Jenni’s tone.

Zoey looked at the jealous woman in front of her helplessly.

Although Jenni claimed that she hated women who could get everything easily after sleeping with the boss, she was willing to offer herself to Luke more than anyone else.

It seemed like Jenni was not done yet and added, “Shame on her for seducing a married man!”

Zoey looked at Jenni’s face. She believed that Jenni would be more tempted to sleep with the boss if she had the chance.

“Ms. Lynn, we’re at the office. We shouldn’t be talking about our superiors' matters.” Zoey glanced at the time helplessly. The other would miss their lunch break if she did not order the takeouts now.

Jenni glanced at the office. No one was inside. She let out a sardonic laugh and said, “Look at how frightened you are. What’s the matter? Are you afraid of getting caught for doing such a thing?”

Zoey turned around and immediately walked back to her seat.

“What’s wrong with you?” Jenni looked at her, puzzled. Was she not the one who was usually interested in gossiping?

“Ms. Lynn, I have to order takeouts for them now. You’d better hurry out and have your lunch.” Zoey did not turn back. She swiped the card and went straight into the office.

Each floor had its own independent system in the building, so there was no way Jenni could use her employee card to enter this office. Jenni grunted. She thought that Zoey was behaving like that only because she was afraid of offending Luca.

After all, everyone in the company knew that Luca had Luke on her side. Many of them would not dare to offend her.

Zoey ordered the takeouts based on the number of employees who were currently having a meeting. She hung up the call, turned around, and glanced at the door. Jenni was no longer there.

She let out a sigh of relief.

Jenni was obviously jealous of Luca. It would be better if she stopped talking to her. Otherwise, she might be dragged into the mess.

Half an hour later, Zoey picked up two big plastic bags downstairs and carried them up.

The moment she stepped out of the elevator, the door of the CEO’s private elevator opened as well.

Zoey paused and glanced at it.

Luke strolled out of the elevator.

“Good afternoon, Boss,” Zoey greeted him with a serious expression.

Luke nodded, then he noticed that she was carrying two bags. He could not see what was inside.

“What’s that?” Luke asked while looking at the bags.

Zoey lifted the bags and answered, "Boss, these are takeouts. Dr. Craw and the other researchers are having a meeting in the meeting room. They haven't had lunch yet, so I ordered takeouts for them."

Luca had not eaten her lunch yet?

Luke frowned, “Did Dr. Craw ask you to order these?"

“No. Dr. Craw didn’t ask me to do so, but…” Zoey hesitated for a moment.

“What?” Luke asked.

“It seems like there’s something wrong with the experiment data this time. Dr. Craw doesn’t want the research done earlier to be wasted, so she’s leading the whole team to look for the problem now. And that’s why I ordered takeouts for them, but I don’t think I should bring them in and interrupt their meeting,” answered Zoey. She was planning to leave the takeouts on top of the fridge in the pantry. Then, she would inform them when their meeting was over.
