Although the woman in front of her was skinny, she was tall. She was a foot taller than Luca, and she did not seem like the type who one would fall easily.
The woman shook her head and replied, “No, thanks. I was in a hurry. It’s not your fault.”
After that, she headed straight and kept going.
She was slightly limping after she fell just now. Luca felt sorry for her and came forward to help her up. "It's my fault. Where are you going? Let me help you."
“I’m going home. It’s not far away from here. Young lady, go ahead. I’ll be fine.” The woman did not intend to blame Luca for it. It was not a big deal.
“Since it’s not far away, let me send you home. You don’t want to head to the hospital for a check-up, so at least let me send you home. That way, I won’t worry about you,” Luca insisted.
“Okay. Thank you.” The woman did not insist on walking back herself. She let Luca help her home.
Fortunately, the weather was cold but she wore enough layers to keep herself warm. Hence, it only hurt a little.
“It’s nothing.” Luca carefully helped the woman up. Even though she wore layers of clothes, Luca could still feel how skinny and weak the woman was.
Foreigners were tall and big-boned. That was why the woman looked taller than Luca, but she was skinny.
Luca immediately understood why the woman fell after she bumped into her.
Luca could not help but wonder at the thought of this. Foreigners usually could get a good job in A City. Many parents were willing to send their children to foreign teachers to teach them other languages.
Hence, they were able to live a comfortable life with such a job.
However, the woman in front of her… Other than her blonde hair and blue eyes, the way she dressed and her complexion were the same as the people living on this street…
She looked poor.
Luca could not help but get even more confused. She was good at judging someone’s character. Even though the woman fell after being bumped into, she did not pester Luca. All she wanted was to go home. The woman’s gentle aura made Luca feel like the woman in front of her was a well-educated middle-aged woman.
“We’ve arrived. Thank you, young lady.” The woman interrupted Luca’s thoughts.
Luca lifted her head and glanced at the shabby house. The lower class in A City would usually stay in places like this.
Normally, it was hard to see foreigners staying on this street.
"Okay. Oh, I'll leave you my name card. Feel free to call me anytime when you need help," said Luca as she took her name card out of her pocket and handed it to her.
The woman took the name card from Luca, smiled, and replied, "Don't worry. I won't come looking for trouble."
"I shall leave." Luca gave her a polite nod, turned around, and wondered which country the woman came from.
She could speak English well, and she did not have a foreign accent.
While Luca pondered, she glanced at the time. She would not make it to the office before getting off work if she did not hail a ride soon. She quickly walked out of the alley and hailed a taxi back to T Corporation.
Luca managed to return to her office before it was time to get off work.
She pushed her office door open, only to notice that there was a basket of fruits on her coffee table.
Luca blinked her eyes. She left in a hurry just now. That was why she did not notice whether the fruits were already on the table or not.
She turned around, headed to the assistants’ office, and asked Zoey, who was busy photocopying the documents, “Ms. Davis, what’s with the fruit basket in my office?”
"Dr. Craw, it's the fruit basket Boss asked Mr. Doyle to get for you." Zoey smiled. Zoey already knew something was going on between Luca and their boss, so she chuckled.
"When was it sent here?" Luca asked as she became alert.
If Jason had sent the fruits to her office while she went out, then she probably could not hide the fact that she had gone out during office hours from Luke.
