There was dead silence in the meeting room. The general manager broke the silence and said, "I know every professor is busy with their project at hand. But HQ has signed a contract about talent plans with Capital University. So, the university is hoping that we can send a professor there to become a lecturer. Everyone here is a talent in drug development. I hope you can pick a professor among you to take this job. You only have to teach once a week."
After that, the professors whispered to each other and turned to look in Luca’s direction.
Luca frowned. She had a bad feeling about this.
Sure enough, after a while, Dr. Jackson spoke, “General Manager, our projects are still developing. We don’t have time to head to the university to give lectures. Besides, some of the professors are lecturing at other universities too. They wouldn’t be able to do it either. I guess the most suitable candidate who can take on the job would be Dr. Craw.”
Luca secretly let out a sigh. It was as expected…
Luca was the person who had the most spare time in the whole office now. She had completed her project, and there was no new project coming in. Besides, she was not teaching in other universities too.
“Dr. Craw, since everyone thinks you’re the most suitable candidate, why don’t you go?” The general manager turned to look at Luca.
“General Manager, I don’t think it’s a great idea. Firstly, I’m not as experienced as the other professors. Besides, I don’t know how to teach either. I don’t think I can handle it.” Luca tried to reject it. She truly was not fit for the job!
Furthermore, would the students listen to her if she taught them?
Luca was aware that her age and experience could not convince the students, especially when it came to good universities like Capital University. The older the professors were, the more popular they would be.
Luca would merely be ignored if she was sent there.
“Dr. Craw, it’s not hard to teach. You’re knowledgeable and resourceful. The students can learn a lot of things from you even if you simply tell them whatever you know. Besides, it’ll only take up one day a week. It’s not going to affect you from preparing for the development of your new research,” the general manager replied with a smile as though he did not hear Luca had rejected the offer. He immediately made the decision and said, “Then it’s a deal. I’ll provide your information to the academic department of Capital University. The students will be choosing their classes in two days. I’ll ask them to send the teaching materials tomorrow so that you can prepare for your lecture.”
Luca was speechless when she heard him taking the initiative to make arrangements for her.
She even had a feeling that the general manager had already planned to let her take the job. Asking the professors about their opinions was just a formality.
Luca turned to look at the other professors. They remained silent, using such a method to agree with the general manager’s decision.
Luca was not close to them, so she could not do anything. She bit the bullet and replied, "Okay…"
“That’s great. By the way, there’s one more thing. Dr. Craw, your research is about to be launched in the market now. Do you mind sharing your research data with everyone so that we can take a look at it?” the general manager asked. After he found out Luca went out for lunch today, he initially thought of entering her office to see if he could find anything.
However, he did not expect Luca to lock the door.
When he thought of grabbing something to unlock the door, Luca came back.
Luca secretly sneered. He had not given up.
“General Manager, those are the company’s classified documents,” replied Luca.
"I know they're confidential. But we're all working in the same laboratory. The drug is launching soon anyway. Sharing the data might help the others, right?" The general manager tried to convince her by dragging the other professors into this and forcing Luca to reveal the research data.
Luca could not help but fall silent. The research the other professors were working on had nothing to do with her research. There was no need for them to refer to it.
"Of course, I can share the data with the other professors for guideline purposes, but it's strictly for those who are working in the same department only," Luca stressed the last few words in her sentence.
