Luca could tell what he meant by his words. He wanted her to quickly set a time to attend the class instead of considering whether to take it on.

She was a bit puzzled, wondering why Luke had recruited this person, Evan Turner.

He put on a smiling face and spoke in a gentle tone, but he was a hard man to refuse.

"Dr. Craw?" Noticing that Luca was keeping silent, Evan called her again.

Luca looked at him and asked, "Have we met before, Mr. Turner?"

"I don’t think so," Evan replied without much thought. He added, "But Dr. Craw, you're well-known in the industry. I've heard of you for a long time. Students at Capital University who have the chance to attend your classes will surely benefit greatly."

Luca had not seen anyone lay on the flattery so thick. She realized there was no use in dwelling on it. She rose to her feet and said, "Mr. Turner, I’m going downstairs to continue with my experiments."

"Sure. I hope you can set a time soon," Evan said with a smile and waved her off.

It was as though he was unaffected by Luca's reluctance or rejection. He watched her depart with a smiling face from behind.

Luca was rendered speechless for a moment. After putting on her laboratory coat, she headed to Mo Stone’s office.

"Dr. Craw?" Mo Stone stood up and called out as she approached.

"Ms. Stone, do you know who the manager is?" asked Luca. Mo Stone often interacted with people from other departments, so she might have more information about the company's personnel.

Mo Stone furrowed her brows and asked in a confused tone, “Mr. Turner? I don't..."

"Was he brought in by Mr. Crawford?" questioned Luca.

Mo Stone hesitated for a moment and answered in an uncertain tone, "Probably, but it was actually arranged by T Corporation. I'm not sure if Mr. Crawford personally recruited him. Dr. Craw, is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing. You may continue with your work." Luca glanced at the thick stack of files on Mo Stone's desk. Then, she turned around to leave the assistant's office.

Mo Stone sat back down. As she watched Luca leave from behind, a hint of complexity flashed across her eyes.

She hesitated, wondering if she should try to seize this opportunity.
