Luca remembered her work in the laboratory after she sent a friend request to the cleaning lady.

So far, she had not received any messages from Rhett. She presumed that it must be Luke's orders.

Luca took the initiative to send a message to Rhett to ask him about the situation in the laboratory.

Rhett responded quickly to her message. He told her that the experiments going on in the laboratory were going on as scheduled. They were ready to apply for a clinical trial now.

Luca looked at Rhett's simple response. It was as though he was afraid of disturbing her if he typed a few more words.

She shook her head, and the phone screen turned dim. She looked at her reflection on the screen. It was blurry, but she could see that her face was swollen.

She let out a sigh. She still could not go back to work even though she thought she was fine now.

She would at least have to wait for the swelling and pain on her face to subside completely. Only then would Luke allow her to return to the office and work.

Luca sat on the couch. She could not get used to not having anything to do these days. She picked up the remote and switched on the television. The news happened to be reporting about her kidnapping case, stating that it had nothing to do with Pierre Mallory.

The vicious and deceitful man came across her mind. Luca knew that Luke would lay his hands on him later even if she did not do anything.

It was not merely because of her but those who had malicious intent against him were bound to end up badly.

However, Luca could no longer bear it.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Abel: [The man you sent told me that you're dissatisfied with my work progress.]

After a while, Abel responded to her message right away: [I'm indeed not satisfied. You're still not that close to Luke Crawford. Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking about. Get it done for me. Otherwise, you'll regret it.]

Luca sent another message to him: [I'm already involved in T Corporation's project, but someone threw a monkey wrench into my plans. I have no choice but to rest at home now. And I don't even know whether I'll still have the chance to participate in the project or not. How am I supposed to get the tender document if I'm not involved in the project?]
