Luca nodded. She knew Luke was in his office based on what Jason had told her. He was not planning to go down for lunch.
That would be great. That way, he would not find out that she was going on a blind date.
Jason and Luca got into the elevator together. He pressed the button for the first floor and asked Luca, "Dr. Craw, where are you going for lunch? Would you like to join us?"
“I have a lunch date.” Luca shook her head and rejected Jason's offer.
Lunch date?
Jason raised his brows. Luca was only closer to Tina in the office, and she was considered a lone wolf. Who could she possibly have a lunch date with?
Could it be that younger brother of hers? It would be a disaster if Luke found out about it. A jealous man was the scariest. When Luke got jealous, that was even more terrifying.
"Are you having lunch with your younger brother?" Jason asked immediately.
Luca shook her head and replied, "No."
"I see..." Jason still wanted to ask her who she was having lunch with, but she refused to say another word. He could not say anything much about it either.
Luca and Jason walked out of the elevator together when they reached the first floor.
Jason looked at Luca and asked, "Dr. Craw, where's the person you're having lunch with? I can give you a ride if it's not far away from here. My car is in the parking lot out there.
"It's not that far. We'll be having lunch in the cafeteria. It's alright. Thank you," said Luca. She wondered why Jason seemed to be curious about her affairs.
Was it because of Luke?
That did not sound good. If Luke found out she went on a blind date, he would probably fly into a rage.
Now, Luca really believed that Luke had fallen for her. However, such feelings were too shallow in her eyes, as though it would only take a gust of wind to blow everything away.
Luke was just lonely.
"Alright." Jason nodded. He planned to find out who Luca was having lunch with after buying Luke's lunch.
Luca walked out of the building of T Corporation with Jason, and they separated when she headed to the right while Jason went to the left.
Jason turned around and glanced at her. Luca had already entered the cafe next to the office building. Only then did he turn around and continue to walk forward.
Luca saw Queenie waving at her once she entered the cafe. There was a man sitting opposite her.
Queenie had chosen a table located at the corner of the cafe, but it was near the windows. If someone was to pass by there, they would be able to see her immediately. The location was very visible, but it was a nice place to talk because it was located at the corner of the cafe. No one would be able to disturb them.
Luca thought to herself that Queenie had planned this every step of the way.
Queenie was putting in a lot of effort to secure Bianca's position.
Luca smiled, walked toward her, and greeted Queenie, “Good afternoon, Mrs. Norman."
"Good afternoon, Luca. Come on, let me introduce you to Enoch Campbell. He's one of the civil servants working in the provincial capital. Enoch, this is Luca Craw, the one I mentioned to you before. Luca is currently working in T Corporation." Queenie was smiling brightly while she introduced them to each other.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Campbell." Luca greeted the man sitting opposite her politely. Those who were able to win Jack's and Queenie's favor were usually good-looking.
Luca was secretly rejoicing. Queenie did not simply choose any man for her. At least, she arranged this handsome-looking guy named Enoch for her.
Luca could see that although Queenie refused to see Luca and Luke having too much contact with each other, she was not careless when she was choosing a date for her.
She was unlike other matchmakers...
Perhaps they were really looking out for her.
While Luca was lost in thoughts, Enoch, who was sitting opposite her, put on a satisfied smile on his face. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Craw."
Queenie looked at the two of them. She was so delighted as if she could already see the two of them getting married. She said, "Why don't both of you talk to each other? I should leave first."
Luca grabbed Queenie's hand and said, "Mrs. Norman, it'd be better if you stay for lunch. It's lunchtime. Don't starve yourself."
"Yes, starving is bad for your health." Enoch, who was sitting opposite her, added.
They were on a blind date, but it was different from old-fashioned blind dates. Hence, Queenie did not need to leave them alone.
"Oh, okay." Queenie thought the two young people were embarrassed. She sat down at the table again. Luca let out a sigh of relief when Queenie was willing to sit down again. If Luca was seen by her colleagues sitting opposite each other with Enoch alone in the cafe, they would misunderstand.
However, if Queenie was here too, they would not easily think that something was going on between Luca and Enoch.
Queenie smiled when she noticed Luca and Enoch not talking to each other. She started a topic for their conversation, "Oh, why don't you two get each other's contact details? Isn't it great for young people to hang out more often? Perhaps both of you can have dinner and watch movies together?"
Luca listened to her, and she knew she had no choice but to get Enoch's contact details.
Enoch agreed with her. He picked up his phone and asked, “Ms. Craw, can I have your contact details?"
Luca knew there was no way she could reject him. She picked up her phone, opened her Facebook QR code on her phone, and said, "Of course. Oh, you can call me Luca."
"Then you don't have to call me Mr. Campbell either. I prefer being called by just my name," Enoch replied humorously while he scanned Luca's QR code and sent her a friend request.
Luca accepted his friend request and left a remark.
Queenie, who was watching them, could not help but exclaim in her heart. Although the two of them were still keeping a distance from each other, judging from the situation, there was a high chance that they might get together.
Before the dishes were served, Enoch and Luca were talking about some of the matters in the pharmaceutical industry.
Luca was surprised to find out that the date Jack had chosen for her was quite remarkable. Although Enoch was a civil servant working for the government, he knew a lot about the pharmaceutical industry.
It was not easy...
Luca thought Queenie and Jack had simply arranged someone who was more outstanding than her, but it seemed like they had put in a lot of consideration when they were picking her date.
Although the pharmaceutical industry was not within the scope of his interest, he was still able to continue their conversation. Hence, they had more and more topics to talk about.
Queenie smiled and remained silent while she watched the two of them. The more she listened to their conversation, the more she thought they were a perfect match.
After the waiter served their lunch, they stopped talking and began to eat.
On the other hand.
After Jason ordered food for Luke, he did not forget that Luca was having a lunch date. Therefore, he headed to the cafe and glanced around. Before he entered the cafe, he saw Luca sitting at the table beside the window.
Queenie was sitting beside her, while another man was sitting opposite Luca.
Jason was pretty sure that this man was not an employee of T Corporation. Who was it?
If standing outside the cafe and taking photos with his phone was not considered strange, Jason would have taken out his phone and taken a photo.
After all, it was a serious matter that his lady boss was having lunch with another man.
Jason rubbed his nose when he saw Luca and Enoch having fun together. He turned around and walked into T Corporation. Should he inform Luke that Luca was having lunch with another man now?
