Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2302

Luke handed her the rice. “Don’t think too much about it. Eat first.”

Luca looked at him properly. “Mr. Crawford, aren’t you worried?”

Although she was the one who betrayed the data and information in Dr. Albus’ case, this general manager did not seem to have good intentions at the time either. However, she was quicker to make a move, so it did not have much to do with him.

“When the time comes, some people will let the cat out of the bag, but until then, what do you think he’ll do?” Luke asked.

“Oh no…” Luca stood up.

“What is it?” Luke tilted his head slightly to look at her nervous expression.

“I suspect that someone in my research group is helping the general manager, but I already had Ms. Davis print out the data report of phase three of the clinical trials. Now, everyone has a copy in their hands,” Luca said.

Luke put down his utensils slowly. He was not concerned about the data at first, but after seeing how concerned Luca was, she would not be able to eat in peace if he did not do anything about it.

He stood up and walked out.

“Mr. Crawford?” Luca was startled, and she called his name while looking at him walk out.

“Aren’t you worried? Come on. Let’s have a short meeting with them,” Luke said while opening the door.

“Right away.” Luca did not forget that Luke was picky. If the food got cold, it would affect the taste and texture. Hence, she put the lid back on before hurrying out of her office.

Luke walked into the assistant office and saw that only Zoey was there.

She jumped up upon seeing Luke. “Good afternoon, Mr. Crawford.”

“Good afternoon. Inform everyone in this department that there’ll be a short meeting.” After finishing his words, Luke glanced back.

Luca caught up to him.

“Right now?” Zoey was flabbergasted as it was lunchtime, so all the people in the department had already gone downstairs to eat except for her because she was watching her weight.

“Yes, I’ll give them ten minutes. Ten minutes later, I want everyone in the meeting room,” said Luke while looking at the time on his watch.

“Yes, sir.” Zoey hurriedly picked up the phone on her desk to relay Luke’s message to everyone.

After notifying Zoey, Luke walked toward the laboratory.

Luca walked up to Zoey and whispered, “Ms. Davis, can you order an A-meal for all of them, please? I’ll pay you back later.”

She reckoned that they probably did not have enough time to get takeout because of Luke’s sudden call for a meeting, so she had Zoey order food for them.

“Alright, Dr. Craw,” Zoey agreed.

10 minutes later, all of the researchers gathered in the meeting room.

They dared not chatter with Luke in the chairman’s seat and Luca next to him. They just sat quietly around the meeting table.

“Mr. Crawford, everyone’s here,” Luca told him.

Luke’s cold gaze scanned everyone present, and he slowly spoke, “According to Dr. Craw, the research data for phase three of the clinical trials is out and each one of you has a copy, is that correct?”

“Yes,” a few researchers said simultaneously.

After sitting on the couch, she saw that Luke had filled her plate with food and knew instantly that the plate was hers.

“Time to eat.” Luke handed her the plate filled with food.

As expected, Luca had no choice but to accept it after he handed it over. She picked up her utensils and started eating slowly.

“Did you notice anything just now?” Luke asked as he noticed that she kept looking toward the researchers when he was talking as if she was trying to see through their expressions.

“Nothing. Maybe I was just overthinking,” said Luca. It would be better if she was just overthinking. At least they would not make that mistake after warning them.

If the general manager asked them for the phase three clinical trial data, they would definitely pass the matter on to her, so there would not be a problem.

“You’ll know if you’re thinking too much soon enough.” Luke picked up a piece of fish.

Luca saw him meticulously get rid of the fish bones and quickly said, “Mr. Crawford, you don’t have to give me more food. I can’t finish everything.”

“You eat too little.” Luke had no choice but to stop feeding her.

While eating, Luca looked at him and something suddenly occurred to her. “Have you already investigated the real identity of the general manager?”

“Why do you say so?” Luke asked her back while eating.

“I guessed it,” Luca said. Luke looked very calm as if he already had everything under control.

On second thought, there were not many people who could make Luke act out of character, so his calm and collected manner did not mean anything anyway.
