Mr. Zac's words caused the employees who were waiting there to stand up and greet Luke.

Luca listened to their greetings as she noticed that their gazes fell upon both of them.

Their gazes made her feel like she was being exhibited in a zoo for the public to see, and that made her uncomfortable.

If she were still Bianca and she appeared somewhere with Luke, people would still be looking at her like this.

However, at the time, she was his legally wedded wife. No matter how many stares she got, it was not like the stares she got right now.

They used their curiosity to mask their inner contempt for her.

Luca lowered her gaze and followed Jason into the room.

Mr. Zac hastily moved one of the chairs out of the way.

Jason pushed Luke to the empty seat. When he saw that there were two empty seats left, he glanced at Luca.

Luca nodded. It did not matter which seat she chose because she would have to sit next to Luke anyway. The two of them were entangled like cobwebs. No matter how hard one tried to pull them apart, they would always be connected together.

She was exasperated and helpless.

After sitting down, Jason had the waiter serve their food as the meal was booked in advance.

In no time, dishes were being served.

Since Luke was here, everyone seemed overly cautious. There was not much table talk. Even when someone was talking, it would be about the contract signing.

Luca listened to their conversation.

After getting the project, Luke would have more opportunities to travel to Russia with the employees in the future.

Being in Russia meant stepping into Abel's territory.
