The atmosphere was a little awkward in the car. Jason changed the subject when he realized that. “Oh, Dr. Craw,
are your hangover pills effective?"
"It can neutralize half of the alcohol in the body," Luca said, but she did not have the exact numerical value.
She made this for herself to make it convenient for her to attend certain occasions. She was able to stay sober
after drinking.
"That's awesome! Dr. Craw, you can earn quite a huge amount in patent fees for providing the formula of the
medicine you carry with you," said Jason. He knew about a few of the miraculous medicines that Luca had made.
The effects were better than the ones on the market.
Luca shook her head. "That's too troublesome."
"Why would it be troublesome? Aren't your medicines finished products? It's just that they're not FDA- approved to
be sold on the market. You'd only have to go through the procedures to produce them," Jason said. He was excited
about Luca's medicine.
How lucky his boss was to have such talent working for him.
"I studied and made these medicines myself. They haven't gone through clinical trials. I made them for myself only
because I thought they would help. Hence, it'd be troublesome to produce them," said Luca. She did not tell him
that the medicines she had been making were not based on the formulas that were used in the market. The others
in the industry had probably never heard of some of the ingredients she used.
"No clinical trials? Then how do you know that they're effective?" Jason smacked his tongue.
"It worked on me after I took them," answered Luca. Although the medicines had not gone through clinical trials or
anthropometric data, she noted down the formula when she thought the medicine was effective after she took it.
"Uh..." Jason muttered to himself in his heart about how Luca had carelessly made these medicines...
Luca could tell what he was thinking, so she said, "Don't worry. A few friends of mine have taken this hangover cure
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbefore. It worked on them, and there are no side effects."
"Dr. Craw, can you kindly spare me one bottle of your medicine when you're free to make some more? Mr.
Crawford and I will need it whenever we're attending business meetings." Jason was no longer worried after she
gave him her assurance.
Luca shot a glance at Luke, who was sitting beside her. He sat there without a word, but his aura was still strong.
She was impressed with Jason's courage to ask her for something right in front of his boss.
"Alright. But it'll take some time." Luca thought no one would dare to ask Luke to drink, so Jason would be the
unlucky one who had to drink. It would be nice if she could make a bottle for him.
Luke spoke when he heard her agreeing, "Make one a bottle for me too."
Luca smacked her tongue. She had just thought that no one would dare to get Luke drunk, yet he was now asking
her for a bottle of the hangover cure medicine?
"Mr. Crawford, do you need it too..."
"I have to attend business meetings too," Luke spoke with his hands crossed in front of his chest. There was nothing
wrong with his expression.
Why could he not ask for it when Jason could?
Luca nodded her head and replied, "Sure."
Jason sat in the passenger seat. He dared not to talk anymore. He noticed something was wrong the moment Luke
asked for the hangover cure.
Did his boss get angry because he had asked for something from Luca?
He made a mistake.
He should not have asked for it in front of Luke. Would it not have been better to ask her personally?
Jason knew he should not talk about it anymore. There was silence in the car again.
The car stopped in front of the hotel. Luke gave orders to the young designated driver. "I've already booked the rest
of your time through the platform. Wait in the car until I'm done dealing with my affairs."
"Alright, Sir." The designated driver smiled and replied. Of course, he would be willing to sit in the luxurious car
without going anywhere while making money doing it.
Luca and Jason got out of the car together. Then, Luke got out of the car too.
A woman called out when the three of them were about to enter the hotel. "Luke?"
Luke turned around and saw the woman who called out to him. It was Tia.
Tia trotted forward when she saw it was him. She lifted her head and smiled, "Luke, it's you. Why are you here?"
They were at a hotel. Showing up here only indicated that they were attending a dinner or a business meeting—or
staying in the hotel.
Tia pulled a long face when she saw Luca standing beside Luke. However, she let it slide when she saw Jason there
as well.
She reckoned that they were here to attend a business meeting. Luke was certainly not going on a date with Luca.
After all, he would not bring his assistant along if he was going on a date.
"I have some work to do," replied Luke.
Tia nodded. "Yes, you're probably here for a business meeting. I thought you came here for dinner. I was thinking of
going with you. Too bad.."
It would be shameless for her to follow Luke if he was attending a business dinner. She intended to give it a go by
saying that. She wanted to know whether Luke would bring her along with him.
After all, he was bringing Luca along with him. How could he not bring her along with him?
Luke nodded. He stopped and looked at Tia when he was about to enter the hotel.
“Luke, what's the matter?" Tia was delighted to see him looking at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Do you know how to speak Russian?" Luke asked. It was written on Tia's personal information that she knew how to
speak several foreign languages, but he did not know if she knew how to speak Russian.
"Yes, I've learned Russian." Tia needed to master different languages in this industry. She had learned many
different kinds of language to communicate with her patients from different nationalities. One of the languages she
knew was Russian.
"Come attend the business dinner with me," said Luke.
"Really? But I don't really know how to..." Tia pretended to be shy for a moment.
"It's alright as long as you can speak Russian," Luke replied. He took his phone out and sent a message to Jason,
asking him to prepare some things.
Jason cleared his throat after he received the message on Facebook. He said, "Boss, I'll go prepare the things first.
I'll be right behind you."
“Sure." Luke nodded and looked at Tia. "I need a woman who can understand Russian to accompany me to the
business dinner."
"Sure!" Tia agreed at once as she was afraid that he might take his offer back. She stood beside him triumphantly.
Luca was upset when she saw this.
Luke took the initiative to invite Tia to accompany him to the business dinner.
If that was the case, what was she doing here?
She could probably leave.
However, she dared not to mention it. She was on a mission. Luca followed behind them as she watched Tia and
Luke walking together.
She was not Tia. She had no right to stand beside him.
Luca let out a sigh in her heart. She did not say a word even though she felt uncomfortable with this arrangement.
She knew it was wrong, and it was not like she had a choice either.
Jason booked three rooms at the hotel's reception. Then, he quickly kept up with their pace.
