After half an hour, Johann walked into the bedroom to take Luca’s temperature. Given the effects of the antipyretic injection, Luca’s body temperature was getting back to normal.

Johann let out a sigh of relief. After he left some antipyretics for backup, just in case Luca’s fever returned in the middle of the night, he left Luke’s apartment.

When he left, he brought Nina along with him.

Since Nina did not drive here, when Johann offered to send her back to the hotel, she accepted his offer happily. Both of them left the building and got into the car. Nina could no longer suppress the confusion in her heart. “Dr. Park, you’ve known Mr. Crawford for such a long time. Do you get the feeling that something is wrong with him recently?”

“Something is wrong with him? I don’t think so.” Johann knew what she was going to ask. He denied it with a smile.

Nina saw his smile that was as sly as a fox and pouted, “I know both of you are best friends. And men will certainly cover it up for each other. But even if you don’t tell me, I can see that Mr. Crawford is giving Luca special treatment. And he seems way too concerned about her.”

“No way! You probably got the wrong impression.” Johann denied it and pretended to act like he was surprised.

“It’s my instinct.” Nina reckoned he would refuse to tell her anything and continued, “All these years of knowing Luke, I’ve never seen him care for other women except for Bianca. And you’re telling me I got the wrong impression? How is that possible?”

“Have you ever thought that there might be some other reason that he cares about another woman?” Johann was hinting at her.

After hearing that Nina was close to Luca, he could not let her ruin Luke’s plan.

“Nonsense. There’s obviously a motive when a man shows his concern for a woman. He can’t be giving it away for free, right?” Nina rolled her eyes.

Johann smiled as he shook his head. Sure enough, the woman that Percy had fallen for, no matter how gentle and quiet she was in front of others, was still meticulous and bright.

At least Nina was being straightforward now.

Johann found an excuse to help Luke. “You’re really imagining it. Mr. Crawford is just cherishing his talent. The progress of Dr. Craw’s research project is the fastest in the company. If everything goes smoothly, the research will be successfully done in a few months. Then, they’ll apply for patents and launch the product in the market. Dr. Craw is an indispensable talent to T Corporation. When her medicine launches in the market in the future, it’ll generate huge profits for the company. The share price will naturally double up. Everything that Mr. Crawford does is to keep this incredible talent.”
