“Alright.” Luca turned her gaze away and opened the door.Two cars were parked in front of the entrance, waiting for them.“I’m going to work,” said Luca.Luke watched Luca get into the car and after she left, only then did he get into his car.“Boss, are we heading straight to the office?” asked the chauffeur.“To the police station, please,” replied Luke. He was dissatisfied with their progress on the case. He had to intervene when necessary. The police officer on duty recognized Luke the moment he stepped into the police station. He quickly invited him to the chief of police’s office. “Mr. Crawford, the chief is in a meeting now. It’ll take some time for the meeting to end.” said the police officer while pouring him a cup of tea.Luke took a flash drive out of his briefcase, “I didn’t come looking for your chief. I came to report a case.”“A case? This way, please.” The police officer’s anxiety immediately spiked. After all, they had not solved the Norman family’s case ye
"How troublesome. Then it would be best if you looked into it too. Let's see what these people have to do with that foreigner called…" The chief of police paused for a moment. “Matysh,” one of the police officers reminded him in a low voice. “Yes, Matysh. Look into it and find out if there’s any connection between them,” continued the chief of police.He thought the police officer was right about it.After all, the case Luke reported happened last year. Perhaps Luke came to drop them a hint when he came to report the case at this time.“Alright, Chief. I’ll look into this right now.” The police officer turned around and left the office.On the other hand.Luke got back into the car and asked his chauffeur to drive him to T Corporation.He called Gale when he was on the way to the office. “Boss, what’s the matter?” Gale was up all night investigating, and he had just fallen asleep. When he received a call from Luke, he sounded a little confused. "I need you to do something
Dr. Linwood glanced at the time. It was already time.However, the meeting had yet to start. Mr. Whitlock was nowhere to be seen either. “Oh, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”“Yes. We’re having a meeting. Isn’t Mr. Whitlock coming?” Dr. Jackson found it odd too. He happened to see Mo Stone pushing the food trolley into the room to pour some coffee for everyone. He asked, “Ms. Stone, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”“Dr. Jackson, I’m not sure where Mr. Whitlock is.” Mo Stone shook her head and served everyone a cup of coffee.“Wasn’t it Mr. Whitlock who asked us to attend the meeting?” Dr. Jackson asked with curiosity. "No. It was Mr. Crawford who informed me about the meeting. He didn't ask me to inform Mr. Whitlock to come for the meeting," replied Mo Stone. She was only following Luke's instructions and doing her job.“I see. That’s weird.” The big screen lit up as soon as Dr. Jackson finished his sentence."The meeting is about to start," said Mo Stone. She quickly handed the coffee to all the
“Yes.” Rhett and the researchers left the office together.Rhett did not return to the laboratory. He returned to his office instead.Mo Stone noticed a group of people walking into Luca's office a moment ago. She could not help but ask with curiosity, "Mr. Link, what happened? Why did Dr. Craw and the other professors gather all their researchers and assistants in their respective offices?"Luca was not the only one who did that in the whole building. That was why Mo Stone was curious about it.“Do you know about Mr. Whitlock being a corporate spy?” asked Rhett. There was no need to conceal the matter. The company would announce it when the time came.“He was a corporate spy?” Mo Stone widened her eyes. She never thought about it. “Yes. Mr. Crawford told the professors. That’s why the professors gathered their researchers and assistants to ask them whether or not they’ve ever revealed confidential information to Mr. Whitlock,” added Rhett.“That’s scary. The company has just s
Tommy was Luca’s child. She knew what it meant when she heard that. Luca noticed the hesitancy in his voice. She could not help but keep a straight face. “Did you get yourself into trouble?”“I didn’t…” Tommy sounded a little upset. He did not want to make this call, but the teacher insisted on asking his guardian to come to school.If Tommy asked his father to come to school, it was inevitable that he would be lectured when he went back home.Besides, his father was busy with work.Hence, Tommy discussed it with his teacher. His teacher knew who his father was too. Thus, the teacher agreed that it would be fine as long as it was his guardian.Tommy dared not to look for his great-grandpa either. He had no choice but to call her.After all, Luca was his mother!“Tell your teacher that I’ll be there in 30 minutes.” Luca glanced at the time and assumed that it would take 20 minutes for her to reach Tommy’s school.“Okay, Ms. Luca. I’ll be waiting for you.” Something crossed Tom
Mrs. Tuffey shook her head and apologized. “The surveillance cameras stopped working yesterday. That’s why there’s no recorded footage of what happened in the classroom.”“My child has never lied to anyone before. He said it was Tommy who pushed him. His statement is the best evidence,” yelled Mrs. Hudson.Luca ignored her and questioned Mrs. Tuffey, “Mrs. Tuffey, did you ask the other kids?”"They're still having class now," replied Mrs. Tuffey. The incident happened during recess. The kids were having class now.Mrs. Tuffey thought of making the decision after the two child’s guardians communicated with each other.“Mrs. Hudson chooses to believe her child, and I believe Tommy isn’t a child who’d hurt others. Mrs. Tuffey, I’d like to talk to Tommy.” Luca made a request. Now, the only way was to ask Tommy what had happened. Only then would she find out the truth.“Let me bring Tommy here. Please wait for a while.” Mrs. Tuffey rose to her feet and marched out of the office.Mrs.
“Why should I listen to you? I’m going to call the police if you don’t transfer the money to me. I’ll let the police officers arrest this little bastard.” Mrs. Hudson was anxious.Luca frowned and covered Tommy’s ears.“Madam, I’m recording our conversation. What you said is enough for me to look for a lawyer and file a complaint,” warned Luca with a serious tone. Who could accept their child being called a little bastard when the child had done nothing wrong? The look on Mrs. Hudson’s face changed. However, she remembered that looking for a lawyer was something someone did just to threaten the other party. Oftentimes, they would just let the matter be. She replied boldly, “Go ahead and look for a lawyer, then. I’ll call the police too.” “Fine. Go ahead. I believe in Tommy anyway. I’m sure he didn’t do anything wrong.” Luca had faith in him.Tommy would not lie to her to evade responsibility. Mrs. Tuffey could sense the tension in the air, and she immediately interrupted, “Mrs
“Mrs. Tuffey, I can understand if you’re reluctant to give me the information, but I’m guessing you know who Tommy’s father is. It’s a simple task for him to look into Mrs. Hudson’s background if he wants to. Besides, I have the audio recording on my phone. I’m not afraid of losing the lawsuit.” Luca made up her mind to sue Charlie’s mother. She could not stand others bullying her son that way.Mrs. Tuffey knew Tommy was Luke's son. She dared not offend Luke. Hence, she said, "Let me look for it. But I'll only give you her name and address."“Thank you. We’ll look into her background to search for the remaining information.” Luca sat there, waiting for Mrs. Tuffey to give her the information.Mrs. Tuffey opened the student handbook. Each student's parent's information was written down in it. She found Mrs. Hudson’s information and copied it down on a paper for Luca. “I can only provide you with this information.”Luca glanced at the address and name. With these two pieces of in
