Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Before Rhett could ask any further, the general manager walked in with his gaze locked on Luca.

Luca met his eyes for a moment, then averted her gaze to look at the computer screen.

Dr. Linwood looked at the general manager with a frown on his face.

The reason why he asked Luca about phase three of clinical trials data was because of the general manager.

His clinical research always did not perform well, so the general manager talked to him alone and asked him to

learn from Luca's clinical research data. Although it was a different type of drug, he thought that he could still learn

something from it, so he agreed.

Dr. Linwood was quite happy at first as he had one more piece of data to learn from, which would help him in his

research.

However, after Luca's reminder, Dr. Linwood felt that something was not right as the data was crucial for the drug

launch.

The general manager sat on the chairman's seat and discussed the meeting agenda.

“I gathered everyone here because the year is ending and I'd like to gather the opinions of the professors about

where we should go for the team bonding trip at the beginning of the year. The professors are the main force of

the company, and the future of Watson depends on all of you. The final decision will be based on the professors'

opinion."

The professors looked at each other. They came for a meeting for such a trivial matter?

The corner of Luca's lips curled up. The general manager painstakingly did this just to see her phase three clinical

trials data...

He even used this excuse to make her come to Watson.

Did he really think that she would show the data to Dr. Linwood because he was a senior?

Dr. Jackson spoke, "General Manager, you can just let the other departments decide. There's no need to waste our

time on this when we could be doing research."

"Yes, yes," the other professors echoed.

Except for Luca, everyone there had a reputation in the pharmaceutical and education industry. At this point, fame

and riches were what they were after. They could not care less about where to travel to.

The professors were not interested in team bonding. They would rather earn more money. If they wanted to travel,

they would bring their wives and children along for the trip.

The general manager lifted his hands and pressed them down, gesturing for them to calm down. “Professors, this is

just one of the matters. Since everyone is not interested in the team bonding trip, I'll let the other employees

decide on the location. We'll move on to the second matter."

Luca looked up and stared deeply at the meeting minutes the general manager put up.

The general manager looked at Luca and said, "First of all, please give Dr. Craw a round of applause."

Then, a scatter of applause sounded.

Luca nodded in every direction to express her gratitude.

Then, the general manager said, "Dr. Craw's research is nearing the end, and her drug's phase three of the clinical

trials data is out. The next step is to prepare for the patent application and the market launch. This will be our

company's first drug. Thanks to Dr. Craw, we'll have a head start for the rest of our company's research."

Luca listened to the general manager's impassioned statement with a poker face. "Thank you, General Manager."

"Dr. Craw, why don't you come over and tell the professors about your research?" The general manager wanted to

put Luca front and center.

Luca sat on the chair without moving. "The professors here are all well-known in the industry, General Manager.

Aren't you making me show off in front of them by going up there? I'm not the one who should go up there and

speak, so forget it. Continue with your meeting. I believe the professors also want to finish quickly so that they can

go back to the laboratory."

Admiration filled Dr. Linwood's eyes as he listened to her words.

She was really something.

Capable, modest, and not humble nor arrogant. She knew that the general manager was stirring something up, so

she fought back with just a few words to not offend anyone present.

The general manager's face was grim as he said, "Then it should be okay for you to show the data for phase three

of the clinical trials to the professors, right?"

"General Manager, I've said this before. You can see my data if you make an application with Mr. Crawford. If he

agrees, I'll make it public in front of all the professors," said Luca.

"There are only our own people here..." The general manager did not expect Luca to be like this. He still could not

get his hands on the data even after asking Dr. Linwood for help.

She was not easily persuaded.

Luca smiled. "I'm just avoiding unnecessary trouble. I'm sure the professors present will be able to understand."

The general manager saw how she refused to hand over the phase three clinical trials data, yet he could not say

anything else in front of so many people. He had no choice but to give up.

After the meeting, the general manager left with a nasty expression.

Luca sat in her chair and watched him leave with a serious look on her face,

There were not many key points in today's meeting. All of the general manager's topics revolved around her as he

tried to get her to show the data of phase three of the clinical trials.

Rhett was packing up his computer and files as he asked, "Dr. Craw, are we going back now?"

Luca glanced at the time. She could still make it to the meeting if she went back now, so she stood up and gathered

the documents in front of her. "Yes."

Dr. Linwood walked over with a look of admiration as he admired her for her humility and complacency. "Dr. Craw,

good thing you're aware."

"Dr. Linwood, does the general manager usually ask for your research data like this?" Luca pretended to ask

casually.

Dr. Linwood shook his head. "Not at all. Our research is not progressing as fast as yours anyway."

"Okay, got it. I have another meeting to attend, so I'll be going." Luca held her computer and documents while

bidding farewell to Dr. Linwood.

"Thank you for your hard work. It must be tiring for you to commute back and forth," Dr. Linwood said. It must be

tiring for her. There was nothing important in today's meeting, yet the general manager still needed her to be

present.

Traveling back and forth like this was indeed exhausting.

"It's okay. I'll be going now." Luca left with Rhett.

The two of them returned to the car, and as usual, Warren was in charge of driving

Rhett sat in the passenger seat and glanced back at Luca. "Dr. Craw, the person you were talking about is the

general manager, right?"

The general manager's intent was so obvious during the meeting earlier that even the professors who were

unaware of the situation felt that something was off.

"Yes." Luca looked at the copy she brought over, which was also the document that the general manager wanted to

see so badly.

She brought it with her with no intention of giving it to him. It was so that she could look at it in the car and do some

simple analysis.
