“It’s our job, Dr. Craw. We’re heading to Watson Biopharmaceuticals first,” said Zoey. She was carrying a thick file. It contained all the information for the application of the drug launch.
“Sure. Off you go.” Luca nodded.
After Luca watched Zoey and Rhett leave from behind, she withdrew her gaze, looked down, and pondered for a moment.
The phone in her pocket vibrated for a moment. Luca picked it up and glanced at her phone. She saw the number on the screen was not a string of numbers but Tina’s phone number. She let out a sigh of relief.
“Tina, what’s the matter?” Luca answered the call.
"Dr. Craw, Boss, and Mr. Doyle haven't come to the office yet. I can only look for you." Tina did not go straight to the point. She expressed how helpless she was at first.
Luca replied embarrassedly, “Mr. Crawford worked overtime last night. He should be at home now. You can call him if it’s about work.”
There was no way Luca could handle T Corporation’s matters. She was in no position to handle them either.
Tina immediately said, “It’s not about work. The man who came looking for Boss last night when he was working overtime came here again. Boss isn’t in the office now. I don’t dare to let others in easily.”
“A man came when he was working overtime last night?” Luca was surprised. She thought it would not have been T Corporation’s partner. Otherwise, Tina would not be at such a loss. Luca asked, “May I know the man’s family name?”
“Mr. Norton. He was in the CEO’s office last night. He’s here again today,” Tina said helplessly. She even served him a beverage before she got off work yesterday.
That was why she knew Gordan was there until late at night. He was still in the office when she got off work.
“Gordan Norton…” It finally dawned on Luca. Was Gordon in Luke’s office for a long time last night?
However, Luca had already fallen asleep when Luke came back home. Thus, he did not mention it to her.
"Yes. That's his name. The guard said he’s already downstairs. Dr. Craw, what should I do now?" Tina knew Boss and Mr. Doyle would come late to the office because they worked until late at night yesterday.
Tina did not want to disturb Boss and Mr. Doyle because of this man. It would make her look unprofessional.
However, she had no idea how she should deal with Gordan.
Generally speaking, her boss' friend came to visit him, but he was not there. The visitor should leave, but Gordan was different from the others. The guard told him that Luke was not in the office yet, but Gordan still insisted on going upstairs.
Of course, the guard had to stop him.
However, it troubled Tina to use such a method. She should not be offending Luke’s friends, but Luke was not here. She could not let him in without permission either. She thought about it over and over again, and she had no choice but to ask Luca.
“Ask him to come to my office.” Luca pondered for a moment and came up with such a solution.
If they did not let Gordan in, he might stand at T Corporation's entrance as though he was a statue like what he did yesterday.
Besides, Luke owed Gordan a favor. Although Vivian refused to see him, it was fine if he was in T Corporation. Vivian was not here, after all.
“Okay, Dr. Craw.” Tina let out a sigh of relief. After she hung up the call, she quickly headed downstairs to receive Gordan.
Gordan raised his brows and asked when he saw Tina, “Has your boss arrived?”
Tina replied helplessly, “Mr. Norton, Boss isn’t here yet. Let me take you to Dr. Craw’s office first.”
“He’s not here yet?” Gordan waited for Tina to swipe her employee card and followed her into the building. He initially thought that Luke was avoiding him on purpose. That was why he asked the guard to stop him from coming in.
Luca could sense Gordan was unhappy, so she asked, “Mr. Norton, what would you like to drink?”
Gordon waved his hand and thought that he should not be blaming others for Vivian’s and his matter. Hence, he said, “No, thanks. What time is he coming to the office?”
"He was still in bed when I came to work," Luca told him she had no idea.
It was normal for Luke to sleep in when he got off work so late.
"Why don't you call and ask him? Sitting here and waiting for him isn't the solution," said Gordan as he sat on the sofa. Then, he patted the sofa and said, "Luke isn't thoughtful enough. The sofa in your office isn't as good as the one in his office."
Luca felt awkward. The way Gordan vented his emotions looked like a vexatious kid.
However, not everyone had to spoil the kid.
“Mr. Norton, you can call Mr. Crawford as well since you have something to discuss with him,” said Luca. She was telling him that she would not make the call for him.
Gordon frowned. She was indeed Luke’s woman, tough and strong. He replied, “He’s not answering my calls, but if you call him, he’ll certainly answer. Just make the call for me. It’s better than me being here disturbing your work.”
Luca said unconcernedly, “You won’t be disturbing me even if you’re here. Mr. Norton, I’m going to the lab to do some experiments. Take your time. If you’d like to drink something, the office assistants have already headed to the branch office for work, so you’ll have to get it yourself. After you get out of the office, turn left and then turn right. That’s where the office pantry is.”
After that, Luca picked up a pile of documents and stood up.
“Are you going to leave me hanging here?” Gordan was startled.
Luca smiled and replied, “We’ve got the radiator here. It’s better than leaving you out there.”
