It was not officially summer yet, so the warmth from the sun was just nice.

Luca's eyelids got heavier as the cozy warmth made her feel sleepy.

She reckoned that she should ask Mo to make another cup of coffee for her or she would

not be able to concentrate on work this afternoon.

An unassuming BMW that was parked on the side of the road caught Luca's attention

because of its eye-catching car plate. It seemed to be Luke's car. “Mr. Crawford, is that

your car?"

"Yes." Luke nodded. He had just gone to the provincial capital, so he chose a car that

would not attract that much attention.

Although he was a businessman, he was also Jack's son-in-law, so attracting too much

attention in a place like the provincial capital would not look good for Jack.

"I'll head back to the company, and you..." Luca paused for a moment before urging him,

"Drive safe."

The smile on Luke's face grew wider as his eyes lit up. "I will."

After parting with Luke, Luca returned to the company and stopped when she got to the

door of the assistant's office.

Before leaving, the assistant's office was empty because Mo had gone out for lunch. Now

that lunch break was almost over, Mo was already sitting in her seat and was about to

start her work for the afternoon.

"Dr. Craw, you're back," Mo smiled and greeted Luca.

"Yes. Ms. Stone, please make a few cups of coffee and send them to the conference room,"

ordered Luca.

"Sure." Mo smiled and nodded before glancing over at Rhett's seat.

Rhett was already in the conference room preparing for the afternoon meeting, but

something was bothering her.

Both of them were assistants, yet she was the one who had to serve drinks and was not

allowed to participate in important research meetings.

Rhett, on the other hand, was the total opposite. Not only did he not have to serve drinks,

but he also did not need to sort out the professor's documents.

He was Luca's personal research assistant.

They had the same title and same rank, but Rhett's bonus was much higher than hers.

Mo became increasingly agitated as she walked into the pantry room to prepare the coffee

Luca asked for.

She brought the coffee to the conference room, and Rhett helped place the cups before

each researcher's seat.

After that, Mo crossed her arms and asked Rhett, “Mr. Link, is working for Dr. Craw tiring?"

Rhett shook his head and said honestly, "Not at all. I learn a lot from Dr. Craw, so it

benefits me a lot."

Mo could not believe his words at all as she struggled to suppress the jealousy in her

heart.

She graduated from the same college as Rhett. It was not an Ivy League, nor was it a top-

ranking university. Graduates like them would have to further their studies to

postgraduate if they wanted to participate in research and work their way up.

Working with Luca helped Rhett become an honors student at school.

None of the other freshmen in the same department had firsthand experience in a

research project like Rhett.

Before Mo left, a researcher walked in and handed her documents when he saw her. "Ms.

Stone, please make three copies of this for me."

"Sure, I'll get it done now." Mo took the file with a smile, but that smile vanished once she

walked out of the conference room.

It was fine for the professors to give her these trivial tasks since her job was to be there to

assist them.

However, even the researchers treated her as their assistant by giving her these trivial

tasks when Rhett was their assistant!

Did they not have the hands to do such a simple task as making copies? All the

researchers just passed on these tiny little chores to Mo.

Mo got even more upset.

Then, she finished making copies of the document according to the researcher's

instructions before sending them to the conference room.

At that moment, Luca was already sitting in the head seat while Rhett sat next to her,

preparing to present. After noticing Mo walk in, he minimized the presentation slides.

Mo noticed what he did, but she did not see the contents on the presentation slides as she

was afraid she would be even angrier.

He was hiding the slides from her!

Mo knew that the details of the meeting were confidential, but she was all the professors'

assistants. She may not have access to some important data, but she still had access to

some of the basic data.

Mo was upset when she saw him hide the slides from her as if he did not trust her.

However, she did not show it. Instead, she handed the copies to the researcher. "These

are the copies of the document."

"Great. Thanks," The researcher thanked her before taking a copy out and handing it to

Luca.

After getting the document, Luca said softly, "Let's continue the meeting."

Mo knew that those words meant that she could not stay here any longer, so she left the

conference room and closed the door behind her.

Then, the smile on her face disappeared immediately. Both of them started off the same,

yet Rhett could sit inside, while she could only sit in the assistant's office.

It made her look like she was not ambitious enough.

Mo recalled that during the new year, she went to a professor's house with a few

classmates.

All the professor could talk about was how capable Rhett was, which made the whole

situation awkward.

Rhett did not go to the professor's house with them, but the professor boasted about him

so loudly.

After leaving, her classmates asked her about Rhett's situation.

They were talking about how capable Rhett was, but it sounded like they were mocking

her. Both of them started off on an equal footing, but she was not as capable nor ranked

as high as Rhett.

Mo gripped her chest as the jealousy lit a fire in her heart.

When the meeting ended, it was time to get off work. The kids were at the manor, and

Luca did not have to prepare soup for Wanda, so she decided to stay at the company and

work overtime. She had asked for too many leaves recently, and if Luke were not the boss

or was not aware of her situation, she would have gotten into trouble.

Who would believe that so many things coincidentally happened at the same time?

Luca sat on her office chair, processing the documents.

After a while, there was a knock on the door. “Dr. Craw, are you going home?"

The person at the door was Mo, who had been watching Luca for some time.

The rest of Luca's team, including Rhett, had already clocked out. However, Luca did not

seem to be going home soon, so Mo thought this was a good opportunity.

"Not yet. Come in." Luca rubbed her temples. She had not been resting well because of

work pressure, so she had a slight headache.

Mo carefully opened the door and walked in.

"Dr. Craw, I have something to tell you." She spoke cautiously and looked at Luca, who

was too busy to even look at her.

"What is it?" Luca flipped the documents that were prepared by Rhett. They were quite

impressive.

Seeing her indifference, Mo felt a little uneasy. After a few seconds of hesitation, she

asked, "Dr. Craw, do you need another assistant? I want to work for you."
