Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle
Chapter 3155 Missed Out On The Gathering

"Blue Coast Restaurant?" Mo Stone was startled for a moment. She thought she had misheard. "You mean the one that's all over the internet?"

"Yes." Rhett nodded, observing Mo's reaction with some curiosity. He then asked, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing, I was just curious. That restaurant is quite expensive. How much did Dr. Craw give you guys?" Mo tested the waters and asked, thinking

that even an ordinary meal there would cost several thousand dollars...

"Revealing that might not be the best idea,” replied Rhett. There were other research team members in the office, and revealing the amount might

make them feel a little sour about it.

He understood this aspect of workplace dynamics well. Not every research professor was as generous as Luca. Having a high income was one thing.

but being generous was something else.

If the other professors could not be as generous as Luca, then Luca would become the exception.

Such exceptions were not always welcomed in the workplace.

Rhett did not mention it as it was partly to protect Luca.

Another researcher also realized his mistake. Talking about going to such an expensive restaurant in front of others would surely lead their office

colleagues to speculate about how much Luca had given them.

They enjoyed this special treatment, but they could not let it bring trouble to Luca.

"Well, it's not much actually. Dr. Craw suggested a team-building activity, so we discussed and decided that each of us would chip in a bit of money.

Along with Dr. Craw's contribution, we can afford to dine well. Let's go, Mr. Link. They've already left, and so should we,” explained the researcher.

"Yeah, that's it. Well, let's head out first." Rhett could not be bothered and left with the researcher.

Mo wanted to speak up.

However, they did not give her a chance throughout the conversation.

She bit her lip as her expression soured.

Mo did not believe a word the researcher said because when Rhett first told her, he did not mention everyone chipping in money. He simply said Luce

was covering it all.

She figured Luca had given quite a lot of money, but to avoid others in the office from getting jealous, Rhett spun it that way.

Mo was frustrated. If she had known Rhett had booked a private room at Blue Coast Restaurant, she would have definitely gone.

She regretted missing out on the chance to dine at such a high-end restaurant.

At the same time, she could not help but secretly grumble about Luca's special treatment. She gave Rhett so much money and allowed everyone to

go to such a nice restaurant.

Surely, other research professors would not be so willing to spend that much.

Mo clenched her teeth as she thought about it. Rhett had asked her twice, so why did he not ask her the third time?

If he did, she would definitely have agreed!

Mo was feeling regretful, and one of the assistants in the office could not help but heave a sigh. "Dr. Craw is just too nice, huh? I wonder why I didn't

get placed in her group.”

"Rhett picked her quickly, but honestly, even if you were given the chance to choose, you might not have picked Dr. Craw at first. Who could have

imagined such a young research professor would have such great capabilities?" commented another researcher.

They had all wondered who would be the first professor to successfully complete the research and have their drug smoothly hit the market.

However, no one had expected it to be Luca.

Luca was the first to complete the research and get her drug on the market. Her luck played a crucial role.

Both Dr. Cole before and Dr. Albus got into trouble. That was why Luca could become the first.

"I never expected this. Now, we can only envy Rhett," added the assistant.

Mo tidied up her documents and stood up, ready to leave work.

She did not want to spend another moment in that office.

Even though the assistants’ conversation did not directly involve her, the content was a constant reminder of her missed opportunity with Luca.

If she had competed with Rhett from the start, she would surely have surpassed him. After all, her performance in school had been better than his.

Mo left with a grim expression.

An assistant noticed Mo's displeased expression. As she waited for everyone else to leave, she asked her colleagues, "Why does Ms. Stone look so

upset?"

"She's probably feeling down because she missed out on the gathering,” replied another person.

"Really?"

"Of course? Rhett invited her once today, saying it was Dr. Craw's idea, but Ms. Stone declined. Then Rhett invited her again, but she still refused.

Didn't you notice?

"When the other researcher mentioned Blue Coast Restaurant, Ms. Stone's expression turned sour. It was like she had missed out on a fortune. It's

definitely because of this."

"But isn't it just a meal?"

"For us guys, it's just a meal, but for

"They reserve a spot, order a few dishes, and rotate people through. They're not really there to eat, just to take photos. Dining at such places boosts

their image.”

"Wow, this is just too much..."

"Normally, one research professor gets one assistant. Since Dr. Craw doesn't plan to let go of Mr. Link, Ms. Stone definitely can't get the job no matte

how talented she is. After all, you can't make exceptions, right?"

"That's right..."

In the office, assistants of other professors continued discussing Mo's situation, while Luca had already returned to her villa.

When Luca reached home, she hurried into the living room.

Gale was sitting on the couch, smiling as he watched the three kids do their homework. There were fruits and snacks on the coffee table in front of

him, showing how considerate Aunt Neile was in hosting him.

"Mr. Gale," Luca greeted him without putting on any airs just because he was under Luke's command.

She knew that without Gale and Rain, along with the sacrifice of that other person, Luke might not have returned safely.

"Dr. Craw, you're back," Gale greeted her cheerfully. He picked up a bag and asked, "Where shall we talk?"

"Are these the herbs you brought back for me?" Luca deliberately asked in front of Aunt Neile to disclose that they were herbs, saving her from

curiosity.

"Yes, these are the herbs you need. Took me quite some time to look for them, but I'm still not sure if they're the ones you want. Why don't you take a

look?"
