Chapter 1254 She Dreamed of Luke
Cole's expression sank even more, which confirmed Talia's guess.
Talia had expected that Cole would be selected to join the off-site training, but the results were out of her expectations.
Disregarding Cole's sullen expression, Talia continued asking, "So who got selected?" "Luca Craw, and Dr. Albus!" Cole sat
sullenly on his office chair. As the manager of the Technical Department, it was a huge embarrassment that he was not selected
for the off-site training. He said sternly to the woman in front of him, "What happened? Can't you even do a simple job?"
Talia felt quite aggrieved that Cole was blaming her for it.
She knew about the deal between Cole and Dr. Albus. Cole was the only one who had benefited from the deal, and she did not
see a single cent from it.
If Cold had not accepted Dr. Albus's bribe, he would definitely be selected.
She thought that it was wrong for Cole to blame her. After all, she managed to make friends with all the researchers' assistants
except for Rhett. They did not join the department at the same time, and Rhett was not a social person, which was why they
were not close to each other. She could only estimate Luca's research progress from what other research assistants told her.
"Sorry, Dr. Kidman." Talia could only apologize to placate Cole.
She was also not very happy that she had missed the chance to join the offsite training.
Cole grunted huffily. Now that he was not selected, there was nothing that he could do. It was not like he could ask Dr. Albus to
make way for him!
"Get out." Cole became even more annoyed when he saw Talia's groveling manner. He did not want to see her in his office.
"Yes." Talia was also not willing to be in the same room with Cole while he was angry. When she heard Cole's command, she
slunk out of the office as fast as she could.
As he watched the office door close, Cole suddenly regretted getting Talia to be his assistant.
She had poor technical knowledge, and she could not do what he wanted.

Meanwhile, as soon as Luca sat down on her chair in her office, someone knocked on her door. She instinctively stood up again
and opened the door, and she was slightly taken aback when she saw that it was Rhett.
"Congratulations for being selected, Dr. Craw." Rhett was rarely so excited.
Luca would definitely bring her research assistant along, which meant that Rhett would be going to New York too.
The event would look good on his resume, and it would be beneficial to him if he decided to further his studies or career in the
future.
"Mm." Luca did not look too happy. Abel had wanted her to join the off-site training, which meant that he had planned something
for her.
She would have to be on her guard at all times, and that was nothing to be excited about.
Rhett thought that Luca was not being herself today. Usually, Luca would tell him to come in instead of opening the door for him.
This time, Luca had opened the door for him, and she did not look too happy.
"What’s wrong, Dr. Craw?" Rhett asked out of concern.
Luca came to her senses. What was she doing?
When she heard the knock on the door, she instinctively thought that Luke was outside. That was why she had opened the door
for him while thinking of how to keep her distance...
She shook her head. "It's nothing. Our next step is to apply for an independent research laboratory for the next stage of our
research. Also, pack your bags. Well be heading to New York soon."
The exact date had not been decided, but Luca guessed that the trip would be in the next few days.
Rhett nodded and made a mental note of what Luca told him. "Alright, I'll prepare the application soon." "Mm." Luca nodded. She
turned around and was prepared to close the door when she heard Rhett say, "You seem tired, Dr. Craw. Why not take it easy
today, and you can rest a little?"
Rhett could see the lethargy on Luca's face, as though she had many things on her mind.
Luca paused. "Alright," she said.

She closed the door and sat on the couch.
Rhett was right. She had not been sleeping well ever since she went to the hospital to diagnose the impostor Bianca's illness.
She had tried to force herself to sleep with the aid of sleeping pills, but her dreams were wild and chaotic.
In her dreams, she saw Luke being physically intimate with the impostor Bianca, and they were a happy family with their
children. She could only watch those scenes helplessly as she realized that she was only a spectator with no influence on them.
There was once when she dreamed that the impostor Bianca had accused her of being a seductress while Luke only watched
coldly without saying a word. When Luca turned around, she saw Luke and the impostor Bianca making out.
The dreams wore her out. Eventually, she stopped taking the sleeping pills.
Even so, not only had she found it hard to fall asleep, but whenever she closed her eyes, Luke's face would appear in her mind.
That was why she had been sleeping only a few hours every day for the past week.
Luca leaned back on the couch and closed her eyes. Even if she could not fall asleep, she could at least unwind a little so that
she did not look so haggard.
Ten minutes later, her phone began to ring.
Luca opened her eyes and adjusted to the brightness for a few seconds.
She picked up the phone and saw that the call was from Queenie.
"Good morning, Mrs. Norman." She answered the call with a smile.
"Good morning, Luca."
Luca could sense the anxiety in Queenie's voice. "May I help you?" "Are you busy now?" "I'm not. Did something happen, Mrs.
Norman?" Luca was worried that something happened to her.
"It's Bea. Her fever has flared up again, and it's worse than last time. The doctors have tried to resuscitate her earlier. Luca, I
know that it's very rude of me to ask this of you, but can you come to the hospital again?" Queenie's voice was shaking. She was
almost in tears over what had happened earlier.

Resuscitate her?'
Luca frowned. Her herbal concoction should not have caused a drastic reaction with Bianca, so why would she need
resuscitating?
She was quite confident about her prescription, and she suspected that there was an element of sabotage.
"I'm begging you, Luca." Queenie did not get a reply from Luca and thought that she did not agree to it.
Luca quickly said, "I'll go over now. Don’t worry, Mrs. Norman. She'll be fine.
If
