“Yeah, something came up with my family, so they got delayed. They just brought me my meal,” answered the volunteer.
Luca glanced at his food, which consisted of meat and vegetables. It was clear that his family treated him very well.
“That’s quite a feast,” remarked Luca.
“Heh, they know I need the nutrition, so they always give me this much. Ms. Craw, have you eaten yet?” the volunteer asked cheerfully. Now that his health was improving, his appetite had returned, and his mood was much better too.
“I have. You should eat more. I just came in to check how much IV fluid is left. There’s still quite a bit, so I think it won't be done before the guys are done eating," replied Luca.
The volunteer chuckled. “They eat fast. You guys are amazing, taking such good care of me. I haven’t suffered at all since being here.”
“Your recovery is our biggest wish,” replied Luca.
“Mm, I’ll definitely cooperate with the treatment,” replied the volunteer.
“Alright, I’ll get back to work. Enjoy your meal,” said Luca.
“Got it. Thanks for your hard work.” The volunteer waved in the direction of her voice with a smile.
Luca walked out of the room and headed to the lab.
Shanks had already finished his meal.
Seeing the plates stacked together, Luca took the initiative to clean up. Just as she was about to take them away, she heard him ask, “Has Abel left?”
“Yes, he got a phone call and left right after,” answered Luca.
Shanks let out a low hum in response and said nothing more.
Luca carried the dishes downstairs, put them away, and then headed back up, immersing herself in lab work once again.
While conducting experiments, she kept messaging Rhett, checking on the progress at Watson. Without her guidance at the company, the project had slowed down.
Luca frowned when she saw the message.
She turned to look at Shanks. This research was originally Shanks’. She had only made some additions to it. The entire structure of the study was built around his work.
“Is something wrong?” As soon as Luca’s gaze landed on him, Shanks immediately sensed it.
A quick glance told him she had something she wanted to ask.
“Mr. Shanks, I…” Luca hesitated for a moment.
“I don't like people beating about the bush. Just say what you need to say.” Shanks frowned.
Luca continued, “I just have a small question for you.”
Shanks waited for her to continue.
Luca handed him her phone.
“The project Watson is working on right now is the one you originally started. Since I’m not there and don’t have the materials with me, I wanted to ask if you still remember it and how this situation should be handled?”
Shanks took the phone, glanced at Rhett’s message, and asked, “Is this your research assistant?”
“Yes.” Luca nodded.
As Shanks typed on the screen, he commented, “Your assistant is quite meticulous. He even noticed such a minor issue.”
Luca smiled. It was precisely because of Rhett’s attention to detail that she chose him over Mo.
She might not have been good at judging people in the past, but after her training on the Island of Despair, she had honed that skill.
Hence, when Rhett expressed interest in applying for her research assistant position, she agreed without hesitation.
Compared to others, Rhett might not have had the most advantages or experience. However, Luca valued other qualities in him.
Now that even Shanks was praising him, she was certain she had made the right choice.
Shanks continued typing, responding to Rhett as though he were Luca.
Before long, Rhett replied with another message, and Shanks kept responding.
Luca knew Rhett was meticulous and would not send messages carelessly. So while Shanks was handling the replies, she did not feel anxious at all. Instead, she picked up the experimental data beside her and started analyzing it.
Shanks had reached the clinical trial stage, but she still could not quite understand how he knew these three traditional herbal medicines would have this effect. As she carefully examined the data, Shanks’ voice broke the silence.
