It was Tina who answered the call in the secretary's office. “Hello, it's Tina here."

"Hello, Ms. Tina. Dr. Craw is at the front desk, asking to see Mr. Crawford. May I know if Mr. Crawford is available now?" the receptionist asked. Visitors who came to the office seldom looked for Luke. They usually would only look for Jason and the secretaries working in the secretary's office.

"Dr. Craw? Let her in," replied Tina. Even though Luke was not in his office now, Tina dared not to stop Luca.

"Alright. Got it." The receptionist hung up the call. She smiled and looked at Luca, "Dr. Craw, Ms. Tina is upstairs waiting for you."

"Okay, thank you." After Luca thanked her, she immediately headed upstairs and arrived at the floor where the president's office was.

Tina was waiting for her in the elevator hall.

"Dr. Craw, you're here," Tina smiled and greeted Luca when she saw her walking out of the elevator.

"Yes. I have something to discuss with Mr. Crawford," replied Luca.

"He's having a meeting now. Mr. Doyle isn't here either. How about this? Let me take you to Boss' office first. You can wait there. There are ten minutes left until the meeting ends." Tina glanced at the time and speculated.

"It'd be better for me to wait at the lounge." Luca shook her head when Tina suggested taking her to Luke's office.

Not everyone was allowed to enter Luke's office. Besides, she was not Bianca now. She had to avoid arousing any suspicion.

"I think it'll be better for you to head to Boss' office right away. Let's go." Tina led Luca to Luke's office. She pushed the door open and said, "Come in. Let me get you something. Do you prefer coffee or milk?"

"I'd like a glass of milk, please." Luca had no choice but to enter the office. Then, she stiffened as she sat on the sofa.

"Sure. Just a moment." Tina left the office and strode off to the pantry.

Tina knew Luca did not like packaged milk. That was why she prepared the glass of milk with milk powder.

Cheryl noticed that Luke's office door was left open when she walked past Luke's office while carrying some documents in her hands. Hence, she knocked on the door and entered the office. Then, Cheryl and Luca happened to look at each other.
