"So, you don't have an appointment. Security, please get this guy out of here. If he still shows up here after this, just continue to chase him out.” Tina was much harsher than Luca.
"Understood." A security guard at the side had seen how Enoch was pestering Luca and was also prepared to make a move. However, since Luca had not given any orders, he did not dare to take any action as it was possible they could be a couple who was arguing.
After all, he did not dare to offend Luca.
Enoch took a step back when he saw the security guard walking toward him. He looked at Luca and said, "Luca, don't you dare take things too far. If it wasn't for Mr. Norman, I wouldn't even have my eyes on you!”
Luca's face was scarlet as she was mad at what Enoch said. If it were not for the crowd watching them, perhaps she would have stepped forward and taught this shameless man a lesson.
"You're just frustrated because you can't get her. Dr. Craw won't ever like you. Even if you get tons of big shots to support you, she still won't even spare you a glance. Get lost!” Tina seldom spoke such harsh and feisty words to others. Even though Enoch's attitude did not affect her, she could not help but give him a lecture.
To be lectured by a woman in front of a crowd made Enoch utterly ashamed. He stomped his way out of the building.
The employees surrounding them were still standing on the same spot. With a cold expression, Tina said, “Why are you guys still standing here? Do you guys think that you have too much time during lunch break?”
After being reminded by Tina, the employees hurriedly walked away and dispersed from the scene.
Luca was so mad that her face had become pale. The previous time Enoch blocked her way, no one had been there to witness it. Besides, Tina was trustworthy. Hence, that incident did not reach the ears of others.
However, the current incident was different. With so many people having observed what went down, it was almost guaranteed that the entire company would soon learn about it.
She felt a slight headache coming on. If Luke found out about it, what would he think?
Tina noticed that Luca was not looking too good and placed her hand over Luca's shoulder. She squeezed her shoulder and comforted Luca, saying, "It's alright. Why don't you head upstairs to get some rest? What do you want for lunch? I'll go get it for you." "I'll just have the same as you." After being pestered by Enoch, Luca no longer had the appetite to have lunch.
"Alright." Tina nodded and headed toward the door of the company building.
Luca took the elevator and headed upstairs.
The entire T Corporation resumed its usual routine.
None of them noticed that Luke's personal elevator was slowly traveling up from the first floor, going all the way to the top.
In the elevator, Luke's expression was very dark. He had just rushed back from the airport. He was on the first floor because the driver had dropped him off there.
As soon as he entered the elevator, he had heard a commotion. A man had yelled out Luca's name twice in a row.
"Have you been hiding certain things that have happened in the company from me?" Luke was looking at Jason with a cold glare.
Jason fumbled, shook his head, and said, "Sir, I've already reported everything that has happened in the company."
"Then what about previously?" Luke continued questioning. He had seen the scene from earlier, and it seemed like it was not the first time that guy had pestered Luca.
Perhaps they both knew each other from a long time ago.
However, how did Luca come to know that guy?
"Are you referring to Dr. Craw and the guy with the last name Campbell?" Jason asked.
"Obviously," Luke said coldly.
Jason shuddered as he knew things could not be kept a secret anymore after Luke had seen the scene. He had no choice but to say, "Previously, Dr. Craw was arranged to attend a blind date, but I'm not too sure what really happened. I think it's best if you ask Tina about this."
"Blind date? Who's the one who arranged it?" Luke continued questioning.
"I'm not sure..." Jason clenched his fists, his palms starting to sweat. It was unavoidable as his boss was way too domineering. Whenever something had to do with Luca, Luke would become even more domineering. "This is Dr. Craw's personal issue, so I don't know anything about it."
"That man mentioned Mr. Norman just now, didn't he?" Even though Luke had been in the elevator, he was pressing the hold button. Hence, he was able to clearly listen to all the voices outside.
"I guess so." Jason was feeling guilty being questioned like this. He was not in the wrong, yet it seemed like he had done something wrong. He just stood there, where he continued to be interrogated by Luke. Was Mr. Norman not his boss' father-in-law?
Could it be that it was really Mr. Norman who arranged for Dr. Craw to go on a blind date? If that was really the case, Luke would not go confront his father-in-law about this, right?
That would truly offend the Norman family. Jason was worried that Luke might actually do it, and it would lead to his future being ruined.
Even though Luke would usually settle things calmly and in a composed manner, it was different when things were related to Luca.
When the elevator arrived on the floor, Luke stepped out and walked to the door of his office. He then said, "When Tina's back, ask her to come to my office."
"Yes, sir." Jason dared not take it lightly. After Luke entered the office, he helped Luke adjust the heater's temperature before closing the door. Then, he sent Tina a message.
[After you have your lunch, please make a trip to Mr. Crawford's office.] He sent the message.
After a moment, Tina replied. [The boss is back?]
[Yes, and he even overheard the incident that took place in the main lobby.] Jason warned Tina. [Oh, right. It seems like he's not in a good mood. I advise you not to hide anything on behalf of Dr. Craw. Just come clean about everything.]
[Oh my God! What's with the coincidence? And how does he know that I...] After Tina sent the message, she felt terrified and sent a whole row of crying emojis to Jason.
[Mr. Crawford asked me about it, but you know more than I do.] Jason replied honestly.
[Mr. Doyle, how could you betray me?! If Mr. Crawford learns that I've hidden so many things from him, that's the end of it for me. Is today my death sentence?] Tina cried and changed her mind. She quickly
asked the waiter to pack up the two sets of meals that she ordered so she could have them as takeaway.
[What could I have done about it? Mr. Crawford had already heard the exchange that took place in the lobby. If you say that you don't know anything, he won't buy it. Don't worry. At most, he'll just put on a dark expression. He won't do anything to you.] Jason comforted her. After all, Tina was a good assistant to Luke.
Besides, this matter was about Luca, so Luke would not simply go around firing others.
If Luca knew Luke had done such a thing, his image as the boss would be ruined. Besides, the boss would not want to see Luca feeling guilty.
[I'll head back once I get my lunch.] Tina covered her face and was feeling troubled by the thought of Luke telling her to come clean to him with a dark look on his face. To avoid getting punished, she had no choice but to let Luca down.
Initially, she had promised to keep it a secret, but since Luke had started to have questions, she needed to protect herself first.
Zoey came over and became a busybody, asking, "Tina, what's going on with Dr. Craw's issue?"
"What are you talking about? Why are you asking me about it?" Tina did not have a pleasant expression on her face, and her tone was harsh.
Zoey was puzzled after being blasted. "Earlier, we all saw you protecting Dr. Craw. Who's that guy?"
