Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2873

It was not officially summer yet, so the warmth from the sun was just nice.

Luca’s eyelids got heavier as the cozy warmth made her feel sleepy.

She reckoned that she should ask Mo to make another cup of coffee for her or she would not be able to concentrate on work this afternoon.

An unassuming BMW that was parked on the side of the road caught Luca’s attention because of its eye-catching car plate. It seemed to be Luke’s car. “Mr. Crawford, is that your car?”

“Yes.” Luke nodded. He had just gone to the provincial capital, so he chose a car that would not attract that much attention.

Although he was a businessman, he was also Jack’s son-in-law, so attracting too much attention in a place like the provincial capital would not look good for Jack.

“I’ll head back to the company, and you…” Luca paused for a moment before urging him, “Drive safe.”

The smile on Luke’s face grew wider as his eyes lit up. “I will.”

After parting with Luke, Luca returned to the company and stopped when she got to the door of the assistant’s office.

Before leaving, the assistant’s office was empty because Mo had gone out for lunch. Now that lunch break was almost over, Mo was already sitting in her seat and was about to start her work for the afternoon.

“Dr. Craw, you’re back,” Mo smiled and greeted Luca.

“Yes. Ms. Stone, please make a few cups of coffee and send them to the conference room,” ordered Luca.

“Sure.” Mo smiled and nodded before glancing over at Rhett’s seat.

Rhett was already in the conference room preparing for the afternoon meeting, but something was bothering her.

Both of them were assistants, yet she was the one who had to serve drinks and was not allowed to participate in important research meetings.

Rhett, on the other hand, was the total opposite. Not only did he not have to serve drinks, but he also did not need to sort out the professor’s documents.

He was Luca’s personal research assistant.

They had the same title and same rank, but Rhett’s bonus was much higher than hers.

Mo became increasingly agitated as she walked into the pantry room to prepare the coffee Luca asked for.

She brought the coffee to the conference room, and Rhett helped place the cups before each researcher’s seat.

After that, Mo crossed her arms and asked Rhett, “Mr. Link, is working for Dr. Craw tiring?”

Rhett shook his head and said honestly, “Not at all. I learn a lot from Dr. Craw, so it benefits me a lot.”

Mo could not believe his words at all as she struggled to suppress the jealousy in her heart.

She graduated from the same college as Rhett. It was not an Ivy League, nor was it a top-ranking university. Graduates like them would have to further their studies to postgraduate if they wanted to participate in research and work their way up.

Working with Luca helped Rhett become an honors student at school.

None of the other freshmen in the same department had firsthand experience in a research project like Rhett.

Before Mo left, a researcher walked in and handed her documents when he saw her. “Ms. Stone, please make three copies of this for me.”

“Sure, I’ll get it done now.” Mo took the file with a smile, but that smile vanished once she walked out of the conference room.

It was fine for the professors to give her these trivial tasks since her job was to be there to assist them.

However, even the researchers treated her as their assistant by giving her these trivial tasks when Rhett was their assistant!
