"Okay." Luca nodded. Earlier, she had been admiring the scenery. Later, her conversation
with Evan diverted her attention. She had not been thinking about Abel's matters at all.
However, when she saw the venue, she felt a bit nervous.
They had arrived...
When they entered later, she could bump into Abel at any moment.
She wondered what he would say after seeing her...
Abel knew that Luke would attend this industry networking event, but did he also know
she would be here?
He should know. After all, he had so many people watching her. It was impossible for him
not to know.
With these thoughts, Luca glanced at Luke while feeling reassured.
Luke said to Warren, "Come in with us too."
"Yes, Boss,” replied Warren as he followed Luke and the others into the venue.
Before they even entered the main hall, there were many medicinal farmers and
merchants on both sides setting up their stalls.
These medicinal farmers and merchants did not have invitations because they did not win
the bid. That was why they were outside the venue, setting up stalls to seek out
collaboration opportunities.
As they walked to the entrance of the venue, Luca was already holding many leaflets that
were given by those medicinal farmers and merchants. They were printed with the herbs
they were prepared to sell.
An invitation was required to enter the venue, and the invitation was with Evan.
Evan immediately took out the invitation and handed it to the staff at the entrance.
The invitation was printed with the corresponding company's name to prevent larger
pharmaceutical companies from looking down on this event and passing the invitations to
unqualified small businesses.
The invitation handed over by Evan was marked with Watson Biopharmaceuticals.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs soon as the staff members at the entrance saw it was Watson Biopharmaceuticals, their
gazes fell on them and locked onto their intended target.
One of the staff members spoke into a walkie-talkie, "Mr. Crawford from Watson
Biopharmaceuticals has arrived. Mr. Crawford from Watson Biopharmaceuticals has
arrived. Over."
Another staff member warmly stepped forward and invited, "Mr. Crawford, please come in.
It was as though the big shot of a leading company in the industry had arrived.
However, Watson Biopharmaceuticals was just a small presence among the numerous
pharmaceutical companies.
Luca looked at these people with enthusiastic smiles when they were facing Luke. It was
as though he could bring them huge benefits for this event.
She felt a little speechless but still followed Luke's footsteps. She stood on his left while
Evan on his right. They followed him into the venue.
There were many people in the venue. It was not like a small-scale industry networking
event at all.
Luca had a premonition that these people were all here for Luke.
Sure enough, as soon as the announcement of the arrival of Mr. Crawford from Watson
Biopharmaceuticals was made, most people's gazes fell in their direction.
Evan exclaimed, "Mr. Crawford, you sure have an imposing presence..."
Luca shot a glance at Evan. He was still wearing a smile on his face, but this time, it
seemed to carry a hint of slyness compared to last night's dinner.
He was like a fox, already calculating what benefits he could gain from this situation.
Of course, Luca knew it. Even if Evan was really planning something, it was probably about
how to gain more benefits for Watson.
"Mr. Turner, let's catch up." After Luca finished speaking, she scanned the venue but did
not see Abel.
She knew he had not arrived yet. If he had, she would definitely be able to spot him at a
glance.
With his ethnic features, he stood out among this group of Western faces.
Her hatred and fear of him ran deep.
So as long as he was there, she would be the first to notice him.
It was because of hatred and fear...
"Dr. Craw, what are you looking at?" Evan noticed Luca's eyes had been wandering around
as she entered the venue.
It was completely different from when they were outside.
This made Evan suspect whether Luke had also arranged some tasks for Luca. Her
demeanor was too much like a bodyguard who was protecting Luke.
However, how could a weak woman like Luca possibly protect Luke? Evan became even
more curious about the task she was carrying out.
Luca withdrew her gaze and replied with an indifferent expression on her face, "Just
looking around." Evan did not say anything.
Luke, surrounded by many people, walked into the center of the venue.
A seminar would be held at the venue later. It was about the medicinal materials in X City.
After the seminar ended, the networking event would officially begin.
Luke was guided by the venue staff and found his seat.
Jason had contacted the venue beforehand, saying that there would be three people
accompanying Luke. Thus, the three seats next to Luke were reserved for Watson staff.
Luca looked at the chairs labeled with 'Watson' and chose a seat.
This seat was one seat away from Luke's.
Evan felt a bit awkward when he saw that. He had always thought that Luca and Luke
were close, so they should be sitting together.
However, before anyone said anything, Luca took the initiative to separate herself from
Luke by one seat. It was as though she was deliberately keeping her distance from Luke.
Although this was the right thing to do, it also meant that the middle seat was for him to
occupy...
"Mr. Turner, why are you still standing here?" asked Luca. Even Warren, who had followed
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthem in, was already sitting in the seat next to her.
"I..." Evan wanted to say he did not want to be a third wheel, but saying that in front of so
many people would not be appropriate.
Hence, he reluctantly sat down while feeling uneasy. Even though he wanted to build a
good relationship with Luke, the current situation was clearly inappropriate.
Furthermore, the premise of building a good relationship was not to be a third wheel. He
understood that much.
When Evan sat down, he was nervous and hoped Luke would not say anything. Otherwise,
he would feel quite awkward here.
Luke glanced at him and said nothing. He did not react to Luca's behavior either. He
continued to entertain the others.
This group of people was interested in collaborating with him.
Luke was dealing with them while feeling slightly displeased. If they wanted to collaborate,
they should be talking to Evan instead.
He would not get too involved in Watson’s matters.
Therefore, Luke introduced Evan to these people who wanted to talk to him, "Everyone,
this is Evan Turner, the general manager of Watson. He's also the young sir of the Turner
family."
Even though the Turner family did not run any businesses in this area of X City,
mentioning the title of general manager alone seemed insufficient.
That was why Luke intentionally brought up the Turner family.
Even if these people were not familiar with the Turner family, it was human nature to make
assumptions. When Luke brought up the Turner family, they would automatically think that
the Turners were a really powerful family.
Sure enough, as soon as Luke finished speaking, several people seized the opportunity to
engage in conversation with Evan.
Luca and Warren, on the other hand, ended up being the ones with nothing to do.
Warren was quite familiar with Luca. He felt a little uneasy when he saw such a scene. He
whispered, "Dr. Craw, I don't think I should be sitting here."
