"I'm just here to pick you up from work. You didn't drive to work, right? Well, I drove today. The weather is cold, and you'll be
freezing if you wish to hail a ride by the roadside. Isn't it good if I can offer you a ride?” Enoch said. A lot of women wanted a man
to be thoughtful and care for them. That was why Enoch came here just to wait for her. After all, government staff got off work
earlier than employees in the private sector. He had plenty of time to come here and wait for Luca.
Luca took another step back. She would have informed the security guards without hesitation if it would not alert everyone in the
office. “Mr. Campbell, please understand that I'm not going to change my mind no matter what you do. So, please leave.”
Enoch's heart sank, and anger was bottled up inside him, but he did not let it out. "Luca, I like you. Can't you give me a chance?
Look at me. I own a car and a house. I'm not that bad..."
Tina, who was standing beside Luca, could no longer stand it. She rolled her sleeves and scolded Enoch, "Hey mister! Is your
brain still working? Didn't you hear her say that she has already rejected you and she's tired of you bothering her? Why are you
still waiting here? She doesn't even want to be friends with you. You'd better give up instead of waiting for her here. You're not
going to gain her favor by doing this. It'll only make her hate you more. And do you think every woman you meet is a gold
digger? Do you think she'll throw herself in your arms when you're only driving an Audi? I'm sorry, but it's not like Dr. Craw can't
afford those cars. She's only furthering her career here for now. Things might change in the future, and that's why she didn't get
a car. So, you'd better drive your car away and get the hell out of here."
Enoch did not expect that Luca would despise him for doing this. He also did not expect to get scolded by the woman beside her.
He drove here to pick Luca up to show her how capable he was. He owned a car, and it was a better model than the ones driven
by typical white-collared workers.
However, Enoch did not expect that they did not give a damn about his car.
The man's pride had shattered in front of these women. Enoch glanced at Luca, and the look in his eyes had changed.
Tina also noticed the changes in his eyes. She shivered and turned to look at Luca.
Luca seemed calm.
"Mr. Campbell, please stop bothering me once you leave." Luca grabbed Tina's hand and left after she said that.
The two of them walked to the spot nearby where they could hail cabs.
Tina glanced in the direction of the office. Enoch had already left. She exclaimed, “The look in the man's eyes just now was so
scary. It was as though he wanted to eat you up after being rejected again."
Luca nodded. The look in Enoch's eyes just now was indeed something else. However, he was merely a civil servant. What
could he do to her?
Luca was sure that after she made it clear by rejecting him and coupled with the harsh words that Tina had said to him, Enoch
would not want to have anything to do with her anymore. She took her phone out, thinking of deleting Enoch's contact number.
She unlocked her phone and realized Enoch had sent a few messages to her.
Luca felt annoyed receiving so many messages from Enoch last night, so she had already muted his messages. She noticed that
there were more than ten messages left unread. Each of them was in short paragraphs.
Luca could not be bothered to read them. She blocked him and deleted his contact number.
Luca was worried Enoch would still come looking for her. She refused to give him any chances, so she blocked Enoch's phone
number and deleted it.
Tina looked at her. She also noticed that Luca's chatbox with Enoch was full of messages. She exclaimed, "This kind of man
must think that he's so successful just because he owns a car and a house. He thinks that the woman he's interested in will
definitely fall for him, huh? That's why he's so scary."
"You're right," Luca replied. Actually, she had no idea why Enoch would do that.
She was not very outstanding either.
"You made it very clear when you rejected him, but his ego tells him that he shouldn't be rejected. He thought it was perhaps you
hadn't seen his financial situation and that's why he pulled a stunt like this. I wonder where he got his confidence from? His
looks? He's not even as good-looking as our boss—not even a third," Tina muttered to herself as she compared Enoch to Luke.
It was a sure defeat for Enoch.
“You're comparing him to Mr. Crawford?" Luca pulled a wry face.
"Why not? They're both men, so what's wrong with comparing him to Luke? I think my aesthetic standards have increased after
working long enough with Mr. Crawford. That's probably why I'm still single now. I think my boss is partly responsible for that.
Facing a handsome boss every day has constantly increased my aesthetic standards. I'm no longer interested in ordinary men."
Tina grabbed Luca's arm passionately, and she could not help but talk to her about these things.
Luca shook her head, smiled, and said, "Then should Mr.Crawford take responsibility for you?"
"Oh no. Boss' level is much too high. There's no way he can be responsible for me. I'd be thankful If he's able to introduce a
handsome man to me." Tina shook her head immediately and cracked a joke.
"I'm afraid that you might not be interested in him," said Luca.
"You have no clue about this. Dr. Craw, think about it. Birds of a feather flock together. If Mr. Crawford introduces a handsome
man to me, that person must be a successful business elite too. Although he might not be as good as Mr. Crawford, he's
definitely capable. This type of man might be able to catch my attention," said Tina. Previously, Tina had been to many cocktail
parties with Luke. She met many successful middle-aged businessmen at the party. However, there were also many new, young
entrepreneurs.
However, Tina was just a secretary. It would be better for her to not get to know them.
Luca listened to Tina, and she could not help but agree with her. She reminded Tina when she saw an empty cab heading
toward them from afar. "There's the cab."
Tina let go of Luca's arm and said, “Dr. Craw, you should go first."
“I think you should go first. Didn't you tell me you have something to do?" Luca wanted Tina to take the cab first.
“I'm not in a rush. You should take the cab first. Even though that guy has left, we can't really be sure. He might come back. It's
not safe for you to wait alone here. So, just get in the car." Tina helped her hail the cab.
Luca remembered that the three children were still waiting for her at the mansion. Besides, Luke would definitely work overtime
today as he was currently involved in the architecture design part of the project. Hence, if Luca went home late, the three
children would be waiting at home without any family members with them.
Hence, Luca got into the car.
Tina helped her to close the car door and waved at her.
After Luca told the driver the address, the cab drove away.
Enoch, who had yet to leave, was hiding at the corner of the street. He went back into his car in a hurry when he saw Luca
getting into the cab. Then, he followed the cab she was in.
He was even more unconvinced after being humiliated by two women. He was looking for a chance.
Luca rejected him? Well, then he insisted on pursuing her.
He was good enough, so there was no way he could not win a woman's heart!
He had to figure out where Luca was staying now so that he could take action.
Tina was waiting for other cabs by the roadside. An Audi drove past her. She frowned and muttered to herself, “That car... Could
it be the man from just now?"
