Chapter 1254 She Dreamed of Luke

Author: Heap Heap
Cole's expression sank even more, which confirmed Talia's guess.

Talia had expected that Cole would be selected to join the off-site training, but the results were out of her expectations. Disregarding Cole's sullen expression, Talia continued asking, "So who got selected?"

"Luca Craw, and Dr. Albus!" Cole sat sullenly on his office chair. As the manager of the Technical Department, it was a huge embarrassment that he was not selected for the off-site training. He said sternly to the woman in front of him, "What happened? Can't you even do a simple job?"

Talia felt quite aggrieved that Cole was blaming her for it.

She knew about the deal between Cole and Dr. Albus. Cole was the only one who had benefited from the deal, and she did not see a single cent from it.

If Cold had not accepted Dr. Albus's bribe, he would definitely be selected.

She thought that it was wrong for Cole to blame her. After all, she managed to make friends with all the researchers' assistants except for

    After Luca ended the call, she hastily typed up a leave application form and went to Cole's office. She knocked on the door and only went in after the person inside gave his consent. She placed the form on the table and said, "I need to take time off work, Dr. Kidman." Cole narrowed his eyes. If it were before, he would not ask too many questions. After all, if Luca had lagged behind on her research, it was beneficial for him, but now… He was angry that her research had progressed so quickly despite taking time off work frequently. Even the veteran researchers could not catch up with her. Cole took on the demeanor of her superior and sighed. "Dr. Craw, how many times have you taken time off work this month?" Luca did not answer. She knew that Cole was unhappy that she had taken his spot in the off-site training trip, and her attendance at work had nothing to do with it. "There might not be a written rule about how much time off an employee can take, but you've been regularl

    Luca was silent as she listened to Queenie admonish the caretaker. Queenie was a gentle woman, and she would even be kind toward someone who had taken advantage of her. However, she used harsh words on the caretaker because of Bianca. Luca's heart wrenched, though at the same time, she felt jealous. She should have been the recipient of Queenie's love and concern. Abel had taken that away from her, and she could only bear the pain silently. The caretaker felt aggrieved. "I don't make the decisions, Mrs. Norman. Madam told me to keep it a secret, and I dared not tell anyone." Queenie could empathize with the caretaker, and she could only blame Bianca for being ignorant. The concoction was supposed to help Bianca feel better, but she had suffered because of her own caprice. Queenie looked at Luca worriedly and said, "What should we do now, Luca?" "Drink the concoction." Luca pulled her hand away and said. "Will she recover if she drinks the concoction?" Queenie asked, thi

    Luca pressed her lips together and swallowed her words of rejection. "Sorry to have troubled you," she said stiffly. Luke nodded and left the room, and Luca followed behind him. Bianca watched as the two people left the room one after another. She wished that she could step between them, but her condition did not allow her to do that. Meanwhile, Dr. Blake was still amazed that acupuncture could awaken an unconscious patient. He glanced at the trash bin in the room; there was a pile of needles inside. What he did not know was that Luca had only used two of them. Dr. Blake asked, "How do you feel now, Mrs. Crawford?" "A little tired…" Bianca answered. If she was resuscitated, there should not be major problems to her health. "I'm glad that you're feeling better." Dr. Blake heaved a sigh of relief. He still had his suspicions, but it was nonetheless good news that she managed to wake up. "I'm fine." Bianca wanted to sit up, but she did not have the strength to do so. Dr.

    "Were you at the hospital just now?" Mo followed behind her into the elevator and wanted to probe more."Yes, I came from the hospital." Luca was unfazed with her questions and pressed the elevator button.She was almost certain that Bianca and Mo partnered up when she came to the company to look for her the last time. Otherwise, how would she know that Bianca was hospitalized?’Mo replied, "Then, is Mrs. Crawford doing better?""She’s doing much better," Luca answered casually. "Since you care about Mrs. Crawford so much, why don’t you visit her at the hospital?"Mo was stunned. She had seen the news of Bianca's hospitalization from social media but she never went to visit. Even if they were friends on social media, the gap between their status was like heaven and earth.‘Bianca may not want me to visit her…’"I've been...relatively busy these days," Mo explained with an awkward smile on her face.Luca nodded and did not expose her.After the elevator reached their floor, the

    Luca touched Tommy's head, then shook her head and said, "This is my boss’ kid. I’m heading to New York for business."The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "I thought you were his mother seeing how close the two of you are. You seem like a kind mother."Tommy finished drinking the water and handed the bottle cap to Luca. He said, "I like Ms. Luca the most!"Luca smiled. Every time he told her that he liked her, the joy in her heart was endless. She could never get sick of hearing it."He’s so cute. I’m sure his parents are great-looking since he’s such a cute child." The middle-aged woman said with envy. She liked good-looking children.Luca smiled and said nothing.As Tommy’s mother, she was happy that her child was being praised. Although Tommy got most of Luke’s good genes, she still contributed.Tommy blinked his eyes and said proudly, "Daddy is very handsome."He only praised his dad but did not mention his mother. The middle-aged woman noticed that and teased him. "How

    "Will do," Jason replied while handling his luggage. He looked at the five people walking behind him and said, "Let's go to the hotel first. The car is waiting at Exit D.""Okay." Dr. Albus dragged his luggage and looked at Jason. Then, his probing eyes fell on Luca and Tommy again.Luke did not react to Tommy being so close to Luca.He acted as if Tommy should be with Luca.Two Rolls-Royce vehicles were parked at exit D. In the bustling New York, there was no shortage of luxury cars but these cars made it extra scenic.When Luke got closer to the cars, the drivers got out of the cars and opened the doors.Luca watched Luke walk toward the car in front and was about to get into the second car, but Tommy tugged on her sleeves."Ms. Luca, let's take that one." He pointed to the one parked in front."You can go." Luca let go and was not planning to get into Luke's car.Although it was uncomfortable for her to squeeze in a Rolls-Royce with three men, she preferred it over being in

    Luke raised his eyebrows and looked down at his son without saying anything.Tommy put his hands on his waist, looking like he was about to give Luke a lecture. "Daddy, can you arrange for Ms. Luca to stay on the same floor as us next time?”Apart from them, the only other person in the elevator was the lift attendant. Luke was not worried about letting him overhear their conversation. "The company has limited funds."Tommy was young and did not know what limited funding meant, but he knew that funding was money."Daddy, you’re not short of money!" he retorted.Luke looked at his son. This was a six-star hotel. Even if it was just a standard room, the environment was top-notch. He knew what Tommy was thinking about and deliberately asked, "Why do you want her to stay on the same floor?"Tommy said honestly, "It’ll be easier for me to go look for her."It was obvious that Tommy was reliant on Luca.When they reached their floor, Luke pulled the suitcase with his left hand and he

    Tommy heard the sound of the door opening and closing. He opened his eyes and calmed the restlessness in his heart. After waiting for a long time, he crawled out of bed.He gently pushed open the bedroom door and glanced at the living room. There was no one.‘Daddy must have gone to bed.’Tommy smiled cheekily. He decided to go find her alone since Luke would not let Ms. Luca stay with him.They were all in the same hotel anyway. It was not considered as running away from home.Tommy thought about it for a little and walked to the door. He looked at the locked door and jumped a few times before he finally opened it. Then, he walked out without a second thought.Luke was in the bedroom and opened his eyes when he heard the door opening.He had yet to fall asleep, and his bedroom door was not shut. A tiny squeak was enough to wake him up. Tommy walked to the elevator and pressed the button. After he waited for a while, the elevator door opened slowly. When the elevator attendant

    “You don’t need to remind me. I was going to check anyway.” Abel shot Luca a chilling look.She took a step back and stayed silent.Abel turned to the pale-faced Hera and said, “If you’ve got low blood sugar, get up and eat something.”“I’ll eat now,” Hera replied, sitting up.Luca handed her the takeout.Abel glanced at the food and then frowned at Luca. “Why didn’t you make breakfast this morning?”“I was busy,” Luca explained with a calm indifference, her expression unwavering. She showed no fear, even under Abel’s questioning.Hera suddenly found herself admiring Luca. Everyone feared this man, yet Luca remained composed even when facing potential punishment. Not just anyone could pull that off.At the thought of this, Hera opened the takeout and kept quiet.Abel narrowed his eyes, glancing between Hera and Luca. His gaze was not exactly gentle as he muttered, “Stop eating this junk. It’s bad for you.”“I know, babe. Just this once. After this, I’ll have what Luca cooks f

    Hera panicked the moment she heard that. “I trust her!”Luca and Shanks were both watching her.Hera repeated herself, saying, “I trust her, okay? What kind of treatment does she need? I’ll cooperate with anything. But what about Abel…”“I’ll tell him it’s just to help improve your overall health,” replied Shanks. Then, he turned around, opened the medicine cabinet, and started preparing the prescription.Hera let out a sigh of relief. As long as Abel did not find out about her health condition, that was all that mattered.If he knew she was unwell, he would send her back to A City. Without free medical help and no way to make extra money, she would be in serious trouble.“Thank you,” said Hera.“Wait outside,” instructed Shanks.“Okay.” Hera carefully stepped out.Luca, however, remained where she was, waiting.While preparing the medicine, Shanks asked, “Do you know which acupoints to target for her?”“Yes,” Luca replied confidently. As long as she checked Hera’s pulse, sh

    “There are a lot of issues.” Luca did not hide anything and handed Hera the phone.Hera looked at it and frowned.“I can't understand any of this.” Hera felt dizzy just looking at the text, let alone the long list of medical terms. It was giving her a headache.“Look at these summaries and indicators. Compare the values on top with the normal values at the bottom, and you'll see what I mean,” explained Luca.Hera did not trust her. Therefore, Luca decided to let her see for herself. Seeing it with her own eyes would prevent any doubts later.Luca pointed out how to read the test results, and after a moment, Hera managed to understand the report. Her face turned pale. “How can there be so many problems?”She looked at Luca and questioned, “Did you fake this?”“I don’t have the power to make the medical center fake anything. Besides, the report has the medical center’s official stamp. If you don’t believe me, you can go directly to the medical center and ask for the official cop

    “I heard from the boss that he's coming because of Vivian.” Gale paused for a moment before adding, “But never mind, you don't seem interested in her affairs anyway. I'm just letting you know he's on his way.”Gordan frowned. Ray was coming for Vivian?What could that ugly woman possibly need?“What do you mean by that?” asked Gordan.Gale smirked. “If you and Ray meet, that’s bound to end in a fight. And since you can't win against him, you might want to mentally prepare yourself, or better yet, find somewhere else to stay. It’d be safer that way.”Gordan's expression darkened. “If you have nothing nice to say, just zip it.”Gale grinned, clearly pleased with himself like he had just hit a sore spot.Gordan exhaled sharply. “Of all times, why is he coming to A City now? He’s just making things worse.”“It can't be helped. Vivian's situation is urgent.” Gale covered his mouth mockingly after he said that. “Oh, right. I forgot you don’t like hearing about her.”Ray wanted to br

    Luke sat in the villa, staring at Luca’s message.He was worried.For a moment, he considered calling her, but then he remembered that there were surveillance cameras everywhere on her side. He dismissed the idea immediately.Her safety came first.Luke reminded her: [Take care of yourself. Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything. Just focus on keeping yourself safe.] The worry in his heart refused to subside, but at this moment, there was no better solution.“Boss, you’re worried about your wife, huh? If you really can’t stand it, we can sneak you in again during the next shift change, just like last time,” said Gale.It had been his idea last time.Now, the real Lucius was still locked up in the basement of the villa.It had been nearly a month. Luke had forced him to take the antidote Luca had recreated. The man was still alive, proving the antidote worked perfectly.“That plan is too risky.” Luke put his phone away. His gaze was dark and thoughtful.“Risky, sure. But at lea

    Luca had not expected Abel and Shanks’ relationship to be like this.It seemed Abel still did not trust Shanks.Shanks continued, “Abel isn’t someone who trusts people easily. He doesn’t trust anyone. You think he’s devoted to Kassy now, right? That’s just his obsession. He's allowing Kassy to receive my treatment, but if it were him… No matter if he were blind or crippled, his safety would always come first. If he were seriously injured, maybe he’d accept treatment, but he definitely wouldn’t do it right away.”Luca stayed silent. Shanks really understood Abel well.Abel did not trust anyone—not even Kassy.Calling him paranoid would not be an exaggeration.Luca felt like they were getting off-topic, but she had never seen this side of Shanks before.In her mind, he was always buried in his work at the lab, only leaving for meals and sleep. Other than that, he was practically never outside.The lab was like his home…“Are you troubled by Hera’s situation?” Luca asked directly

    Hera was startled by Luca's words.The refusal that had been on the tip of her tongue suddenly got stuck in her throat.“I…” Hera hesitated, feeling conflicted. Leaving Abel might not be such a bad idea. At least she would not have to live in constant fear.She was finally realizing how unpredictable his moods were. At first, she thought it did not matter as she could still look at other men. She just had to ensure there was no physical contact. In reality, even if she so much as glanced at someone, Abel's expression would darken with anger.It was frustrating. Now, the only person she was allowed to look at was Gerald. Still, what was the point of just looking at Gerald?At that thought, she lifted her gaze to Luca.Luca added, “I’ll give you five minutes. If you refuse treatment after that, I’ll take the medicine back to Mr. Shanks and won’t try to convince you again.”Hera's heart tightened. She did not even need five minutes. She had made her decision within 30 seconds.“I’

    “If Abel finds out that Hera's body isn't suitable for organ donation to Kassy, what do you think he'll do?” asked Shanks.He already knew the answer, but he still wanted to hear Luca’s thoughts.“He has invested a lot of time and money in Hera. If he gets nothing out of it, he won’t let her off easily,” Luca said bluntly.Luca and Shanks were on the same page.They did not have a good relationship with Hera, but they had no intention of ruining her either.Hera’s personality was unpleasant, but that was not enough for them to hate her so much that they wanted to see her suffer.“What methods do you think he’ll use?” Shanks asked again.Luca was silent for a long moment.Shanks already knew the answer, yet he still wanted her to say it out loud.After thinking it over, she finally said, “There are plenty of ways he could go about it, but no matter what he chooses, Hera’s fate is sealed. She’s as good as dead…”She lowered her gaze, her tone firm and certain.Shanks nodded.

    Hera heard that Luca had returned and immediately went to find Shanks. She narrowed her eyes.That woman went to see Shanks. Could she be talking about her?The thought made Hera uneasy. She had a nagging feeling that something was wrong with her medical report.However, when they left the medical center earlier, Abel asked Luca when the report would be ready, and she said it would be available tomorrow.Hera turned to Gerald and said, “Take these back for me first.”“Alright.” Gerald carried the bags as he walked away. He could not help but wonder what exactly Hera bought. These bags were really heavy!Only after Gerald went upstairs did Hera slowly make her way up as well. Her room was on the third floor, but she stopped when she reached the second floor. She glanced around to make sure no one was watching before heading toward the laboratory.The door was closed.Instead of knocking, Hera pressed her ear against it, trying to eavesdrop.However, the laboratory was special
