Chapter 1933 Even If Luca Listened To Him, She Still Had To Suffer

Luke stared at the laptop screen and said, “Dr. Albus, can you prove that you did the research

yourself?”

Dr. Albus handed the papers in his hands to Luke and replied, “Of course. Boss, I'm pretty certain

about this. And I have evidence too. I made several mistakes before I managed to complete this

research. Besides, our company has an incentive program. I wouldn't have to go through all those

things if I really bought the research from someone else. And I would have also just launched the

product before the other party did.”

“Then it must be someone in the company who sold the confidential information,” Luke concluded.

“Boss, someone must have stolen my confidential information and sold it to the other party. They

beat us to it by forging the trial data and results, then they applied for the product launching. Boss,

you must find out the truth!” Dr. Albus went along with Luke. He had not been able to eat or sleep

from the day his application for the product launch and patent was rejected. He had been asking

people to find out what happened. He would not stop until the truth came out.

Luke did not say anything. He was tapping on the meeting desk with his index finger.

Dr. Albus glanced at Dr. Feron, who was a close friend of his. Then, Dr. Albus gave Dr. Feron a

meaningful glance, asking him to speak up for him.

Dr. Feron did not want to get involved in this. However, Dr. Feron had benefited greatly from Dr.

Albus in the past. He had no choice but to stand up and speak up for Dr. Albus. "Boss, Dr. Albus is

right. Not only do we need to find out who's behind this, but we'll also have to handle the PR crisis

as well. The best way is to ask for Dr. Craw's help to speed up the research and apply for the

product launch.”

Dr. Albus previously held a one-hour press conference before the research was ready to be

launched in the market. It was the first drug by Watson Biopharmaceuticals to launch on the market.

Hence, the reporters had all written articles about it.

Now, not only were they facing internal problems, but they had to handle external issues as well.

Luke swept his piercing gaze across everyone in the meeting room when Dr. Feron mentioned

Luca's name.

They lowered their heads whenever Luke's gaze fell on them, not daring to say another word.

“Dr. Craw is helping me to work on the project now. And all of you want Dr. Craw to bear the

responsibility and help you to clean up the mess you've made?” Luke questioned.

The professors noticed that something was wrong with Luke's words.

Luke was saying that it was a mess they had made instead of Dr. Albus’ mess alone...

That would mean Luke was not planning to let a specific research team bear the responsibility for

this matter alone. All of them would be involved...

The manager was shocked to hear this. “Boss, how could you say that? Isnt Dr. Albus’ research team

responsible for this matter?”

“Those who have access to enter the labs in this company are suspects,” said Luke.

The manager glanced at the others. They were either shocked or showing looks of disapproval, but

no one dared to say a word.

Since the professors dared not say anything, then he was the only person left. "Boss, the research

information was kept by Dr. Albus and his team members. If I had to make a guess—"

"Everyone has to be placed under investigation,” Luke interrupted him.

Investigating everyone in the company was the most efficient way. After all, anyone could have

stolen the information.

Everyone fell silent, while the manager cried out bitterly in his heart. This meant that their workload

would increase a lot in the near future.

After all, other than checking the surveillance footage, everyone's recent whereabouts had to be

investigated. That was how they could prove a person's innocence—or guilt.

The research department alone had more than ten employees, and there were also other employees

working in other departments who had access to the research department. According to what Luke

said, these people would be placed under investigation too.

Dr. Albus took a deep breath and mustered his courage to ask, “Dr. Craw also participated in my

research. Does she need to be investigated too?”

The way Luke looked at Dr. Albus grew colder. Luke fell silent for a few seconds and eventually said,

“All those involved have to be placed under investigation.”

Jason's phone vibrated in his pocket.

Jason took his phone out and glanced at it. It was a message from Gale.

Jason bent down and whispered in Luke's ear to remind him, "Boss, Gale is already downstairs. He

doesn't have the permission to come in.”

Luke turned to look at the manager and said, “Go downstairs and bring my guest to my office.”

“Me?” The manager looked at Luke and quickly nodded. “Alright, Boss.”

The manager hurriedly left the meeting room as though he was running away from something.

Luke looked up coldly and said, “That's all for today.”

The professors in the meeting room exchanged glances with each other. Were they ending the

meeting without discussing a plan?

Jason pushed Luke's wheelchair and left the meeting room. Dr. Albus made sure that Luke had left

before asking, "What now?"

"He's the boss. Boss didn't say anything about what we should do now. We'd better get back to

work,” replied Dr. Feron. He tidied up his laptop and documents before standing up.

They had not reached a conclusion after the meeting. Dr. Albus had no choice but to stand up and

leave the meeting room as well.

Dr. Albus, who was the company's rising star, had fallen into an unfavorable position because of this

matter.

Luke had not said anything either. No one knew how to fix this. Dr. Albus had a bad feeling about

this.

Noontime.

Luca glanced at the time while she was waiting for the machine's results. It was already noon.

There was dead silence, and the entire villa became quiet without the kids playing around and

making noises.

Luca stood up as she thought of going downstairs. Just then, her phone rang.

Luca glanced at it and noticed that it was a call from a string of numbers. She pursed her lips and

answered the call.

“You answered the call quickly this time.” Abel reckoned that the phone had just rung once and it

was already answered. He guessed that Luca must have found out about what happened to Dr.

Albus and was probably feeling upset about it.

"What's the matter?” There was still not a hint of respect in Luca's tone.

"I told you to make everyone suspect that Dr. Albus is the one who did it. It's time for you to make a

move now." Abel's voice sounded creepy. She could already tell that he was smiling on the other

end of the call.

Luca thought Abel knew that Luke must be facing some difficulties now. That was why Abel was

smiling. “How do I do that?”

Luca had no choice but to listen to him now that things had come this far.

Even if Luca listened to him, she still had to suffer. If she did not listen to him, the consequences

were even larger.

“I have a sum of money now. Deposit the money into Dr. Albus’ Swiss bank account,” said Abel.

“You can do this yourself.” Luca frowned. She had already handed the research information to Abel.

Now, he wanted her to frame Dr. Albus.

Did Abel harbor a grudge against Dr. Albus?

"Of course, you have to be the one to do it. That'll make it more interesting. Oh, the guy named

Albus doesn't have a Swiss bank account. You'll have to open a bank account for him and then

deposit the money into the account,” said Abel.

“I can't do this. I don't have such skills!” Luca rejected him. Abel was too malicious for coming up

with such a dirty trick.

If Luca forged fake evidence, Dr. Albus would be put into a much more difficult position. At least

right now, there was no evidence against him.

If she forged evidence and Luke investigated the matter, the consequences Dr. Albus would have to

face later were not as simple as being forced to resign from the company. He probably had to be

held accountable for this, and he might end up in prison...
