Chapter 1377 Cole’s Ploy

Author: Heap Heap
All the researchers were in their respective laboratories performing their research to secure the next stage of funding. That was why Rhett thought that Cole would be in his laboratory rather than in his office. Seeing that Luca was so insistent, he did not say anything.

Luca walked in front of the manager's office and knocked on the door. "Come in." A voice was heard from within, which made Rhett surprised.

Luca opened the door and went inside, and Rhett quickly followed behind.

Cole was sitting on his chair, dressed in his white lab coat. He smiled and greeted the woman in front of him, pretending that he was oblivious to what happened in Luca's laboratory. "It's you, Dr. Craw. How can I help you? Are you taking the day off again?"

Luca shook her head and told him about the situation in her laboratory.

Cole acted as though he was shocked after hearing what Luca had to say. "How is that possible? I hope that you're not joking, Dr. Craw. Your research is far ahead compared to

    Dr. Cole waved his hand and asked Talia to leave after he heard her repeated assurance.After Talia left his office, he picked up his phone and called Jason to report on the situation. He took the opportunity to wash the problem off his hands as well. Jason did not comment after he listened to what Dr. Cole had to say. All he did was acknowledge the situation.After Dr. Cole put down the call, he touched his chin and thought about it. He could not sense anything from Jason's tone and wondered whether Luke would take Luca’s side once again.He was not entirely confident.After Luca left Dr. Cole's office, she went straight to the laboratory. The staff had already cleaned up the mess, including the broken experiment instruments."Is everything sorted out?" she asked.One of the researchers handed her a few sheets of paper and said, "Dr. Craw, we just checked and these are the data that have been wiped clean. The computer archive has been completely deleted as well and we don’t k

    "Are you sure that the computer's backup data can't be repaired?" Luke asked. His tone was still calm after such a serious incident.The research progress of the new drug was disrupted, and the expected profits would be affected as well. However, he seemed to be indifferent."I’m not certain. We have to wait until the relevant technicians check on it to know for sure," Luca said. She returned to her seat and quietly moved her chair farther away. She thought that it was best she kept a distance from Luke. The farther, the better."The company is going to go through a comprehensive upgrade of the system and the team will have their hands full with that. If you know some talents who are skilled with computers, feel free to make a recommendation." Luke flipped through the data, his expression still flat.Luca smiled upon hearing his words, and she replied, "Mr. Crawford, I don't know anyone like that. Maybe you can ask the other staff and Dr. Cole."Luke was turning the page and pause

    Luca's expression was calm. She moved her lips in response. Her heart was beating like a drum and she was overthinking. ‘What does he mean?’Knock, knock. When his shut office door was knocked on, Luke looked away from her face and said, "Come in."Mo came in holding a cup of coffee. She delivered the coffee following Dr. Cole's orders. The moment she opened the door, she saw Luca.She froze but quickly returned to normal. She brought the coffee to Luke, put it down, and said, "Mr. Crawford, this is your coffee."Luke glanced at the coffee and nodded. "Close the door when you leave."Mo nodded and slipped out of the office. She closed the door on her way out.The thick wooden door acted as a barrier, so she could no longer see what was happening inside.Mo fiddled with her hair in annoyance. She did not expect Luca to be in Luke's office. Dr. Cole had set her up.After Mo left, Luca changed the subject and said, "Mr. Crawford, is there anything else that you’d like to discuss

    After Mo returned to the office, she notified Talia that Dr. Cole was looking for her.When she heard that, Talia walked out of her office immediately.She knew that Luca had organized a meeting but the only people who participated in the meeting were those in Luca’s research group and Dr. Cole. However, Dr. Cole did not reach out to her even after the meeting ended.Talia was very anxious and worried about what would happen, so she had been waiting for his call.She quickened her pace and ran into Luca at the elevator entrance. She was startled and greeted her with her eyes cast down. "Dr. Craw, good morning.""Good morning." Luca looked at Talia and could not help wondering if she was involved in the incident.Talia listened to her calm tone as if she was not at all anxious about what had happened. Her emotions were a little unbalanced. She asked, "Dr. Craw, I heard about what happened. If you need help, just let me know and I’ll do all that I can to help you.""Thank you for

    When the others heard what she said, they stopped cleaning up.After a while, Jason walked in. He swiped with a temporary magnetic card and the door opened automatically.He glanced at the door and said, "It's pretty smart. The lock has no trace of damage."To protect the research results from being stolen, the company used the most advanced security system. Compared to T Corporation, Watson Biopharmaceuticals' system was more advanced."Mr. Doyle, good morning." Luca greeted him when she saw him walk in."Dr. Craw, good morning, I'll have a look at what's going on." Jason smiled, appearing friendly and approachable.In contrast, Luca's expression was stern. She nodded and replied, "Okay."Jason noticed that everyone in the laboratory had a serious expression. He still had a smile on his face. He was relaxed and said, "Don't worry, I’ll investigate this matter. Dr. Craw, do you have a list of the data lost?"Luca handed him the paper.Jason glanced through the report, then put

    Luca listened to the conversation from the side and broke out in a cold sweat for the cafeteria lady. Luke was an extremely serious person. She was not sure if he disliked being referred to as a young man. "Mm." Luke handed the meal card to Luca and said, "Thank you.""You're welcome." Luca took the meal card. She did not expect him to react so calmly. Seeing that he was not furious at the cafeteria lady, she took her food and found a corner to sit down.The cafeteria lady gave him a plate full of dishes seeing that he was a man. She handed it to him and said, "Young man, if you want to have better dishes, do come early. If you come at this hour, these would be all that’s left.""Mm." Luke had no intention of sharing his true identity with her. He held the tray, glanced around, and decided to sit opposite Luca.Luca stopped eating and looked at the man in front of her. ‘He wants to have lunch with me?’Luke sat down and ate slowly.Luca swallowed the food in her mouth and glanc

    Luca bit her lip when she thought about that. If Jason dug deeper into the matter, he might uncover a series of misaligned interests.Watson Biopharmaceuticals was established not too long ago. Whoever was involved dared to do it because Luke was based in T Corporation. The department manager usually had the final say in Watson Biopharmaceuticals.Of course, they would cross boundaries for their own interest...However, just because Luke was not based in Watson Biopharmaceuticals, it did not mean that he did not care about the company. What happened this time may serve as a lesson for those who wanted to take advantage of the company.Toward the end of office hours, Jason came to Luca's office again. His smile became wider, as though things were progressing."Mr. Doyle, did you find out more?" Luca tidied some documents. She had just sorted out the budget fund application form."There is some progress. The security footage of the corridor was altered. The footage from yesterday i

    On the way home, Luca bought some vegetables and fish.Amur was not a fan of fish so she never thought of cooking fish when he was around, but considering she was eating alone, she thought to have a change of food.After she picked up the vegetables and fish, Luca thought of Tommy, who was still in the hospital. She then bought some peanut butter. It was still early, so she planned to make some peanut butter oats for Tommy and send them to the hospital after she was done with dinner.After she ate, Luca brought the flask and arrived at the ward. Before she even walked in, she heard the nanny coaxing Tommy to eat."Little Young Master, you only took two bites. Have a few more bites?" The nanny's voice was full of helplessness. It was obviously because Tommy was unwilling to eat."I don't want to eat. My mouth tastes bitter, I want to eat sweets." Tommy's voice sounded. He sounded quite energetic.Luca walked in with the flask.Tommy saw her at a glance and said with joy, "Ms. Luc

    “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
