"This is a long-term investment. I'm certain no one will object. Besides, it's about time for your research to go public," Luke whispered in her ear. He was a little emotional.

Luca's research was well-received after several clinical trials.

The company's marketing department conducted a survey and found that if they priced it right, most medical institutions expressed interest in purchasing the drug in bulk for their patients.

As such, they did not have to worry that it would not sell.

Luca hummed softly. Her mind went blank as Luke approached her. "Mr. Crawford, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Mm, this decision is right for the company's future." Luke pressed his lips on her neck.

Luca followed his movements and fell onto the bed. She went soft as she felt his tender and fiery kisses.

As they rolled in the hay, no one noticed that Luca's phone lit up and then dimmed again.

Luca turned her gaze back to her phone screen.
