“That’s right. Dr. Craw’s medicine is effective and doesn’t come with side effects or dependence. It’s much more effective than the sleeping pills prescribed at the hospital. It just hasn’t entered the market yet. She made it herself and takes it as well. It’s quite safe,” said Zoey. Rhett had told her all of this.
As for how Rhett knew about it, she did not ask.
He must know much more than they did, Rhett was Luca’s assistant, after all.
“Dr. Craw is brilliant,” Tina spoke highly of her, but she had no intention of asking Luca for the medicine.
She was only suffering from temporary insomnia. As long as she cleared her mind, she would be able to return to her old sleeping habits.
“You seem to be in bad shape. If this issue persists, your work will be affected too,” said Zoey as she looked at Tina’s haggard appearance. If she had not known that Tina was not seeing anyone, she would have thought that she just got dumped.
“Let’s talk about it some other time.” Tina shook her head. She could not bring herself to ask for medicine from Luca.
However, she did want to talk to Luca about something else. Did the missing person have something to do with Luca? When she thought of this, she asked again, “By the way, is Dr. Craw in her office?”
“Yes, she is. Tina, since you’re close with Dr. Craw and have spent time together before, she’ll definitely help you,” said Zoey.
Tina nodded. Although Amur and Luca did not share the same parents, they were still siblings. Luca must know about Amur’s whereabouts.
After leaving the assistant’s office, she walked up to Luca’s office door and raised her hand to knock on the door.
“Come in.” Luca’s voice sounded.
After hearing her voice, Tina mustered up the courage to push the door open. “Dr. Craw, are you free?”
Luca was eating while looking at documents. She looked up when she heard that it was Tina’s voice and grabbed a tissue next to her to wipe her mouth. “Oh, it’s you, Tina. I’m free. What’s the matter?”
Tina saw her eating while looking at documents and kindly reminded, “Dr. Craw, eating like this will cause indigestion.”
“It’s no big deal. What’s wrong?” Luca knew that Tina certainly did not come over to chit-chat. Plus, lunch break was almost over. Even if she did come to chit-chat, now was not the time.
“The thing is, I have some personal matters to ask you about.” Tina clasped her hands together, then stretched them out again out of nervousness.
Luca noticed her little movements and pointed to the seat next to her. “Have a seat first, then talk.”
Tina sat on the couch. “Why don’t you finish your meal first?”
“I’m pretty much done. You go ahead.” Luca pushed the lunch box aside and looked at the person on the couch. Tina’s nervousness did not seem to go away.
Tina had always been confident, whether it be at work or outside of work. Luca figured that something was troubling her, which made her behave that way.
After having that thought, Luca looked Tina up and down carefully. She noticed that Tina was not looking so well as if she had not slept for days,
Tina adjusted her breathing and faced Luca, but she did not know where to start.
“Tina, have you not been sleeping well for the past few days?” said Luca when she noticed that Tina was not saying anything.
Tina froze. “You noticed it too.”
“Your complexion looks bad, and you have eye bags and dark circles. You don’t look like yourself.” Luca shook her head.
Tina could not help but smile bitterly. She was indeed not herself anymore. The old her used to be dashing, but now, she was like a jailbird who had to think carefully before uttering each word. With no news of Amur, it was like her sky had fallen down.
“Dr. Craw, that was rude of me… I’ll be leaving…” Tina noticed Luca’s expression and knew that Amur had not once mentioned her in front of Luca.
“Tina, wait a minute,” Luca hurriedly shouted at her when she saw her stand up and was about to walk out. “I didn’t expect you to be so close to Amur.”
“He helped me before. That’s how we have each other’s contact numbers,” explained Tina.
“I see. Amur has recently gone back to Russia to take care of family matters. So, his domestic phone is switched off. He didn’t bring it with him either. It’s only natural that you can’t reach him,” explained Luca.
“He went back to Russia?” Tina was taken aback and felt lost.
This was not much different from completely ignoring her…
Besides, it was hard to meet someone when they were overseas.
Moreover, he had no plans of keeping in contact with her. Otherwise, he would have told her in advance if he wanted to.
Luca saw through Tina’s expression.
In the workplace, she may be a sharp and decisive female secretary, but when it came to emotional problems, her feelings were written all over her face.
She said on behalf of Amur, “Yes, it was all very sudden as the family asked him to go back to deal with some matters. He went back with only a passport and a bank card, nothing else. That’s why you can’t contact him. If it weren’t for the fact that he remembered my phone number, I wouldn’t have known about it either…”
Tina blinked.
“I’m sure you’re aware that Instagram is not very popular in Russia, so he can’t reach you. But he’ll be back once everything has been dealt with over there. I’ll tell you first thing when he comes back,” said Luca. It was a good thing that someone had fallen for Amur.
