"It's our job, Dr. Craw. We're heading to Watson Biopharmaceuticals first," said Zoey. She was carrying a thick file. It
contained all the information for the application of the drug launch.
"Sure. Off you go." Luca nodded.
After Luca watched Zoey and Rhett leave from behind, she withdrew her gaze, looked down, and pondered for a
moment.
The phone in her pocket vibrated for a moment. Luca picked it up and glanced at her phone. She saw the number
on the screen was not a string of numbers but Tina's phone number. She let out a sigh of relief.
"Tina, what's the matter?" Luca answered the call.
"Dr. Craw, Boss, and Mr. Doyle haven't come to the office yet. I can only look for you." Tina did not go straight to
the point. She expressed how helpless she was at first.
Luca replied embarrassedly, "Mr. Crawford worked overtime last night. He should be at home now. You can call him
if it's about work."
There was no way Luca could handle T Corporation's matters. She was in no position to handle them either.
Tina immediately said, "It's not about work. The man who came looking for Boss last night when he was working
overtime came here again. Boss isn't in the office now. I don't dare to let others in easily."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"A man came when he was working overtime last night?" Luca was surprised. She thought it would not have been T
Corporation's partner. Otherwise, Tina would not be at such a loss. Luca asked, "May I know the man's family
name?"
"Mr. Norton. He was in the CEO's office last night. He's here again today," Tina said helplessly. She even served him
a beverage before she got off work yesterday.
That was why she knew Gordan was there until late at night. He was still in the office when she got off work.
"Gordan Norton..." It finally dawned on Luca. Was Gordon in Luke's office for a long time last night?
However, Luca had already fallen asleep when Luke came back home. Thus, he did not mention it to her.
"Yes. That's his name. The guard said he's already downstairs. Dr. Craw, what should I do now?" Tina knew Boss and
Mr. Doyle would come late to the office because they worked until late at night yesterday.
Tina did not want to disturb Boss and Mr. Doyle because of this man. It would make her look unprofessional.
However, she had no idea how she should deal with Gordan.
Generally speaking, her boss' friend came to visit him, but he was not there. The visitor should leave, but Gordan
was different from the others. The guard told him that Luke was not in the office yet, but Gordan still insisted on
going upstairs.
Of course, the guard had to stop him.
However, it troubled Tina to use such a method. She should not be offending Luke's friends, but Luke was not here.
She could not let him in without permission either. She thought about it over and over again, and she had no choice
but to ask Luca.
"Ask him to come to my office." Luca pondered for a moment and came up with such a solution.
If they did not let Gordan in, he might stand at T Corporation's entrance as though he was a statue like what he did
yesterday.
Besides, Luke owed Gordan a favor. Although Vivian refused to see him, it was fine if he was in T Corporation.
Vivian was not here, after all.
"Okay, Dr. Craw." Tina let out a sigh of relief. After she hung up the call, she quickly headed downstairs to receive
Gordan.
Gordan raised his brows and asked when he saw Tina, "Has your boss arrived?"
Tina replied helplessly, "Mr. Norton, Boss isn't here yet. Let me take you to Dr. Craw's office first."
"He's not here yet?" Gordan waited for Tina to swipe her employee card and followed her into the building. He
initially thought that Luke was avoiding him on purpose. That was why he asked the guard to stop him from coming
in.
"Yes. Boss got off work late last night. He's probably still at home or on his way here," replied Tina as she pressed

"Yeah. He went home late last night, but I've already woken up. You're telling me he hasn't come to the office yet?
He's slacking off," Gordan commented.
Tina smiled helplessly. She dared not to go along with what he said.
After all, many other bosses arrived at the office later than Luke did. It was rare to see Luke come to the office late,
and she had been working at T Corporation for such a long time.
Tina led Gordan the way to Luca's office and said, "Mr. Norton, this is Dr. Craw's office. Please sit here for a while. I'll
inform Boss that you came when he comes to work."
"Sure," replied Gordan.
Tina knocked on Luca's office door and said, "Dr. Craw, Mr. Norton is here."
"Come in." Luca's voice came from inside the office.
Tina pushed the door open and turned to look at Gordan, "Mr. Norton, please head in."
"Thank you." Gordon walked into the office slovenly and saw Luca sitting behind her office desk. He smiled and said,
"Sis, why are you in the office when Luke isn't here yet?"
The look on Luca's face changed when Gordan called her 'Sis'.
