Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2638

Dr. Linwood glanced at the time. It was already time.

However, the meeting had yet to start. Mr. Whitlock was nowhere to be seen either. “Oh, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”

“Yes. We’re having a meeting. Isn’t Mr. Whitlock coming?” Dr. Jackson found it odd too. He happened to see Mo Stone pushing the food trolley into the room to pour some coffee for everyone. He asked, “Ms. Stone, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”

“Dr. Jackson, I’m not sure where Mr. Whitlock is.” Mo Stone shook her head and served everyone a cup of coffee.

“Wasn’t it Mr. Whitlock who asked us to attend the meeting?” Dr. Jackson asked with curiosity.

"No. It was Mr. Crawford who informed me about the meeting. He didn't ask me to inform Mr. Whitlock to come for the meeting," replied Mo Stone. She was only following Luke's instructions and doing her job.

“I see. That’s weird.” The big screen lit up as soon as Dr. Jackson finished his sentence.

"The meeting is about to start," said Mo Stone. She quickly handed the coffee to all the professors in the meeting room and left with the food trolley.

Mo Stone was not informed to attend the meeting, and she did not receive any instructions to prepare the meeting agenda in advance. Only the professors were asked to attend the meeting, so she should not be there.

The door was closed. Luke’s face appeared on the big screen.

Luca’s heart skipped a beat.

Even though they had just parted this morning, she could still feel her heart fluttering when she saw him.

“Good morning, professors.” Luke’s voice slowly came from the speakers.

His deep, rich voice came into Luca’s ears. She slightly clenched her fists. Her heart pounded faster uncontrollably.

“Good morning, Mr. Crawford.” The professors in the meeting expressed their respect to Luke and greeted him.

“Today, I gathered everyone here to attend a short meeting. It’s about Watson Biopharmaceuticals’ general manager. Based on our investigation, we found out that Mr. Whitlock is a corporate spy sent by Pierre Mallory. He has been fired by the company. Contact me in private if anyone here has revealed our company's classified research projects to him. This concerns every professor's research findings. I hope everyone can take this seriously," Luke announced the matter expressionlessly.

Luca looked down. The corner of her lips slightly curled up.

Luke did listen to what she said. Otherwise, he would not have fired the general manager after Pierre got into trouble.

Dr. Jackson’s expression turned serious without him noticing it. “Mr. Crawford, what are you going to do to Mr. Whitlock?”

“I’ve already sent him to the police station. I’m not going to look into the professors and researchers who have already revealed any confidential information to him. But I don’t want to see anything like this happen again in the future,” answered Luke. He had already asked Jason to call the police.

The reason why he did not call the police himself was that he did not have to deal with such matters himself.

Also, if Luke was the one who called the police, the police officers might misunderstand him.

There was dead silence in the meeting room.

Luca briefly knew what the situation was now. After all, Mr. Whitlock had the right to manage the funds for their research projects. That was why there were a few professors among them who were close to Mr. Whitlock.

Even if the professors did not reveal the information, the researchers might have told him about it.

Luca realized that Pierre might have found out about all their research.

However, it was not too late yet. Pierre was running away from the police and the authorities. He was too busy to plot something evil.

Luke continued, “There’s one more thing. Our company will be holding a team-building event this Friday. It’s a celebration party for Dr. Craw’s successful drug launch.”

Luca suddenly lifted her head when her name was mentioned.

A party?
