Luca took the elevator to her floor and walked into the assistants' office after she clocked in.
It was the first day of work after the New Year, so both Zoey and Rhett arrived at the office earlier.
"Dr. Craw, good morning." When Zoey saw Luca walk in, she stood up and greeted her with a slight smile.
"Good morning. How was your New Year?" Luca chatted with them.
"It's all good. It's just for everyone to have a break. How about you, Dr. Craw?" Zoey asked. During the New Year, everyone posted on social media, even those who did not usually like to do so.
Luca was the only one that Zoey did not see posting anything about the New Year on social media.
"It was great." Luca smiled. The past few days were her happiest days in the past three or four years.
"Ms. Davis, please help to inform the others that we'll have a meeting in the conference room in about an hour." Since she was back in the office, she wanted to push forward the process of launching the drug.
Luca had to launch the drug as soon as possible before Abel tried anything.
"Okay, Dr. Craw. I'll go inform them." Zoey nodded and walked out of the assistants' office.
Luca looked at Rhett and instructed, "Mr. Link, bring the relevant documents about the clinical trials and come to my office."
"Okay, Dr. Craw," Rhett replied. He took the key from his briefcase and unlocked his drawer.
Many of the trial documents have been locked up in the office for the holiday. These documents were not particularly confidential, so they were placed at Rhett's table.
Rhett picked up the thick stack of papers and followed Luca into her office.
"Have a seat." Luca pointed to the seat opposite the desk and motioned for him to sit down.
"Okay." Rhett sat across from her.
After Luca put down her briefcase, she turned around and took out some other documents from the safe. "There's still an hour before we start the meeting. Let's take advantage of this time to go through the documents. If there are no concerns, please head to Watson Biopharmaceuticals tomorrow and complete the rest of the formalities with Ms. Stone."
"Okay, Dr. Craw." Rhett nodded. Their files were almost ready for the drug to go public.
"Then let's get started." Luca opened the file and began to go through it line by line with Rhett.
After an hour.
After she had read through all the documents, Luca rubbed her aching temples and breathed a sigh of relief. "There's no problem with the documents. It's almost time, so let's go to the conference room now."
"Mm, Dr. Craw, are you okay? You look tired," Rhett said.
"I'm okay. There's nothing wrong. I just didn't rest well last night." Luca stood up while holding the stack of documents.
"Dr. Craw, let me do it." Rhett hurriedly moved the documents from her side to his and carried everything.
The two went into the conference room one after the other.
The researchers were already waiting in the conference room. They greeted Luca when they saw her come in.
The greetings came one after another, and Luca chose to reply with a nod and a smile. She sat on the chair and said to everyone, "Today's meeting is about the launch of our drug. It'll take some time. I hope you can understand."
"No problem, Dr. Craw," two voices said simultaneously.
They had waited for a long time for the drug to launch. If the drug was approved for use, they would receive a fat bonus.
Luca started the meeting seeing that no one had objections.
On the other hand.
A City International Airport.
After Matysh and Mandy got off the plane, they took the car arranged by the hotel and headed straight to the hotel.
Mandy leaned on Matysh coquettishly, "Mr. Matysh, are you sure you don't need me to accompany you tonight?"
"I have a meeting tonight. I don't need you tonight," Matysh said. During this time, Mandy had been by his side, and to be honest, he was a little bored.
He would have dumped her long ago if her face did not look like Luca's.
After all, no woman could stay by his side for such a long time.
"I can go out when you guys are talking and can come back when you're done. I've gotten used to sleeping by your side. I can't go to bed without you." Mandy acted coquettish. She would be homeless if Matysh did not let her stay in the hotel with him. Her only choice would be to spend a lot of money staying in a hotel.
After all, she has been by Matysh's side for some time, so she felt that the house she was renting previously was a waste of her money. Hence, she moved out before the New Year.
"No need. When I get back to the hotel, have the driver take you back to your place. Also, it's been a while since your friend last contacted us. Go and find out what happened. I need her help," Matysh said.
When she heard that, Mandy knew he was not planning to let go of Luca.
In the end, no matter how long she stayed with Matysh, she would still just be Luca's replacement.
Mandy was discontented but did not dare to show it. She continued to smile coquettishly and said, "She should've been discharged from the hospital by now. I'll go and look for her."
"Mm," Matysh said with a sullen expression.
As he looked at the streets of A City, he did not expect to stay in the country for such a long time because of Luca.
He swore to get Luca within half a month. After all, he had been here for too long. His old man was unhappy and thought that he had lost his focus on many things.
If he was forced to go back without Luca, his heart would be itching. He would still find a way to get her.
After all, Mandy's facial features were different from Luca's. She lacked the cold temperament that Luca had, which made him less interested in her.
Mandy took out her phone and contacted Leia.
After Matysh got back to the hotel, she gave the driver Leia's address.
Soon enough, she arrived at the destination and looked at the apartment in front of her. Although she had never been to Norman Residence, she knew that Norman Residence was a villa, not an apartment.
However, Leia gave her this address.
Mandy had no choice but to go upstairs, find the floor that Leia mentioned, and ring the doorbell.
It was a middle-aged woman who opened the door for her. Mandy knew Queenie and knew that the person who opened the door was obviously not Leia's mother...
"Is this Leia Norman's home?" she asked.
"Ah, you're looking for Ms. Norman! You're Ms. Sanders, right? Ms. Norman told me about your visit. Please come in." The maid opened the door wider to let Mandy in.
There was a reason she was so cautious.
Since Leia kicked Dexter Shaw and he was hospitalized, there were still many who cursed Leia on the internet. Some people even made memes about her and laughed at them.
The apartment's management office was not particularly strict. Some reporters who ran out of topics to write about would come to the door to take a photo of Leia and try to get some information to write news on it.
