Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2929

When the elevator reached the floor of her office, Luca walked out and noticed that the assistant’s office was empty.

She clocked in before entering her office and putting on her lab coat. Then, she entered the laboratory.

The researchers all looked up when they heard the door open.

When they saw Luca, they were reminded of the news. However, because Luca was their immediate superior, they dared not bring up the topic.

They were pretty much the only department in the entire company to talk about Luca’s news the least.

Plus, on the way to work today, many of them were accosted by people from other departments or research teams. They were trying to get more information on Luca.

However, they had professional ethics. No matter what other people asked, they told them nothing.

“Good morning, Dr. Craw,” several researchers greeted her.

“Good morning.” Luca acted as if everything were normal. Then, she returned to her seat and began to work on her part of the experiment.

Rhett sat opposite her before saying, “Dr. Craw, have you canceled your leave?”

“Not yet. I didn’t see Ms. Stone on the way here,” said Luca. The company had its own management system. If she asked for a leave, she would be granted one. However, if she returned before her leave ended, she would have to cancel the leave.

The assistants were in charge of this system. Even if she clocked into work, her leave was not automatically canceled.

When Rhett heard that, he said, “I’ll help you cancel it.”

After a few clicks on the laptop next to him, he was done.

Then, he went straight back to work.

In the laboratory, other than some small talk about work, no one said anything else.

Luca was able to concentrate on her research better without being disturbed by hearing talk about the news reports.

Half an hour later, Rhett glanced at the time and reminded the other researchers, “It’s time for the meeting.”

Luca was stunned. Meeting?

Why was she not aware there was a meeting?

She looked at Rhett and shot him a questioning gaze.

Then, Rhett explained, “Dr. Craw, the new general manager just informed his assistant about this meeting.”

“Oh, let’s go, then.” Luca nodded. A few days ago, Jason brought a man over, saying he was the company’s new general manager. She was aware of the new general manager but because she was busy with her research as well as Wanda’s and Sarah’s situation, she never got the chance to meet them. Plus, she usually went straight home after work, so she never stayed at the office for too long.

“Dr. Craw, the research professors weren't called to join the meeting,” said Rhett.

Although they did not mention the purpose of the meeting, Rhett could guess that it was probably to discuss Luke and Luca’s news.

Thus, Luca did not need to be at this meeting.

When Luca heard that, she gave a deadpan nod and sat back down to continue working.

Then, the others left with Rhett.

After leaving the office floor, a researcher said, “Good thing Dr. Craw didn't insist on joining the meeting, or else the general manager would have nothing to talk about…”

As if they could read each other's minds, they knew exactly why the general manager called for this meeting.

It was to tell them not to tell those reporters anything, and they had to obey if they wanted to keep their jobs.

Even if they secretly told the reporters, Mr. Crawford might still find out in the end.
