Chapter 1266 What Are You Saying?
Luke's expression was neutral earlier, but it turned gloomy after Luca left.
Jason lowered his head to eat his breakfast silently. Tommy was the only one who dared to ask questions.
Luke glanced at his son, then turned to look at the entrance of the restaurant. Luca and the others had already left. He looked
away, picked up the napkin, wiped his mouth, and stood up.
Jason followed him, stood up, and asked, "Mr. Crawford, are you going to the office now?"
"Mm," Luke took Tommy's hand and walked out.
Jason followed behind him as he took out his phone and gave the driver a call, asking him to wait for them downstairs.
Tommy looked up at Luke and asked, "Daddy, are we going to where Ms. Luca is?"
"No," Luke stood in front of the elevator and answered his question with a stern expression.
"Ah, why not?" Tommy thought they were going to be at the same event together, which was why he agreed to Luca's request
obediently.
After Jason spoke to the driver, he said to Tommy, "Tommy, Dr. Craw is going fortraining. We're going somewhere else."
Tommy was stunned, he curled his lips and said, "I thought I would be seeing Ms. Luca later."
Jason was not sure whether to laugh or cry when he saw Tommy's reaction. However, he did not dare to be presumptuous in
front of Luke, so he could only try to hold in his smile.
He had been working by Luke's side for many years and had already mastered his ability to hold back his laughter so Luke would
not notice.
After the elevator arrived, Luke and Tommy went downstairs. The Rolls-Royce was parked at the entrance of the hotel. When the
driver saw them coming, he immediately got out of the car and opened the door for them.
Tommy stood by the car, looked at Luke eagerly, and said," Daddy, I want to look for Ms. Luca."
"No," Luke carried him into the car, closed the door, and got into the car from the other side.
Tommy's request was ruthlessly rejected. He looked at him with puppy dog eyes. When he wanted to say something, Luke said,
"Have you forgotten what you promised me?"
Tommy shut his mouth instantly.
To go on the trip to New York, he promised that he would not make a fuss and be obedient.
His tiny fist hammered his knee, then he sighed deeply. He frowned like a little adult with infinite sorrows.
Luke was unmoved by his actions. He took out his personal phone and found that there were no new notifications. He put the
phone in his pocket and closed his eyes.
Tommy glanced at him and knew it was best to stop bothering him. However, he did not rest with his eyes closed but looked at
the scenery that was flashing outside the car window. He had a good rest the night before and was very energetic.
The other side.
Luca, Dr. Albus, and the others got in the car arranged by the Pharmaceutical Association. They were going to attend a lecture
with the top medical professors and pharmaceutical professors from all over the world. They would get together and exchange
ideas with each other on the special cases they had taken on.
This was Luca's first time attending a lecture as such, but compared to others, she was not as interested.
Dr. Albus went through the list of attendees in the car and said excitedly, "Dr. Steve will also attend this lecture! That’s
wonderful!"
Luca did not know much about these big shots in the field, so the expression on her face was calm like stagnant water.
Rhett could not believe it. He stared wide-eyed and asked," Dr. Steve?"
"Yes, look at this list. I heard that he very rarely attends lectures like this. I didn't expect to be able to meet him this time. It seems
that luck is on my side!" Dr. Albus' tone was full of admiration toward Dr. Steve.
Dr. Albus' assistant said, "Dr. Steve also published a new research paper in an international journal a few days ago. The
research direction of his paper is related to what you're working on now. It’ll be great if we can pick his brain on it."
Dr. Albus’ pharmaceuticals were mainly for the treatment of intestinal infarction, which was relevant to Dr. Steve's recent
research paper. Hence, they were overjoyed.
They would have something to boast about if they had the chance to have a chat with Dr. Steve for a few minutes.
"Well, we must seize the opportunity." Dr. Albus nodded and secretly made a decision.
The three of them were discussing happily and were happy to be able to meet the big names attending this lecture while Luca
kept quiet.
Rhett handed a list to Luca and asked, "Dr. Craw, would you like to see it?"
"No need." Luca shook her head and closed her eyes.
She was neither sleepy nor tired but she did not want to talk about this lecture with them any further. Abel was involved.
Compared to their high expectations, she would be taking a precautionary route so as not to accidentally fall into Abel’s trap.
Rhett heard her reply and nodded.
Their names were also on the list but they were on the last page. The pharmaceutical industry would not attract the attention of
the public if there was nothing major.
In addition, they were not big names in the field, so their names were at the back.
Dr. Albus was pleased to see his name on the list. He took out his phone, took a photo, and planned to post it on social media
because it was a rare opportunity for him to meet all these big names in the industry.
The car drove for about half an hour before it reached its destination.
The lecture was held in the auditorium of a university in New York. The four of them got out of the car and followed the
instructions to the auditorium.
Many students were in the university compound because it was a school day.
Luca walked on the path, her delicate face becoming part of the scenery.
A male student noticed her since she got out of the car.
Even though there were three men beside her, he was not demotivated.
As Luca got closer and closer to him, he exchanged glances with his friend, jumped off the railing, and walked to Luca.
Her path was blocked by the tall male student. Luca frowned and looked at the person in front of her.
"Hello, my name is William! You’re so beautiful, can you give me your number? Shall we be friends?" As soon as William
finished speaking, his friend whistled to cheer him on.
Some of his friends chanted, "Give him your number! Give him your number!"
Luca was not interested. She wanted to bypass the boy but was immediately blocked. "What's your name?"
"What are you saying?" She frowned and showed a puzzled expression. She spoke in Russian and pretended that she could not
understand what the other party was saying.
William's expression was a little petrified. He was shocked that the delicate doll in front of him did not understand English.
However, he did not understand Russian.
Luca did not give him time to react, took a detour, and continued walking.
