It was not officially summer yet, so the warmth from the sun was just nice.

Luca's eyelids got heavier as the cozy warmth made her feel sleepy.

She reckoned that she should ask Mo to make another cup of coffee for her or she would not be able to concentrate on work this afternoon.

An unassuming BMW that was parked on the side of the road caught Luca's attention because of its eye-catching car plate. It seemed to be Luke's car. “Mr. Crawford, is that your car?"

"Yes." Luke nodded. He had just gone to the provincial capital, so he chose a car that would not attract that much attention.

Although he was a businessman, he was also Jack's son-in-law, so attracting too much attention in a place like the provincial capital would not look good for Jack.

"I'll head back to the company, and you..." Luca paused for a moment before urging him, "Drive safe."

The smile on Luke's face grew wider as his eyes lit up. "I will."

After parting with Luke, Luca returned to the company and stopped when she got to the door of the assistant's office.

Before leaving, the assistant's office was empty because Mo had gone out for lunch. Now that lunch break was almost over, Mo was already sitting in her seat and was about to start her work for the afternoon.

"Dr. Craw, you're back," Mo smiled and greeted Luca.

"Yes. Ms. Stone, please make a few cups of coffee and send them to the conference room," ordered Luca.

"Sure." Mo smiled and nodded before glancing over at Rhett's seat.

Rhett was already in the conference room preparing for the afternoon meeting, but something was bothering her.

Both of them were assistants, yet she was the one who had to serve drinks and was not allowed to participate in important research meetings.

Rhett, on the other hand, was the total opposite. Not only did he not have to serve drinks, but he also did not need to sort out the professor's documents.
