Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 2638

Dr. Linwood glanced at the time. It was already time.

However, the meeting had yet to start. Mr. Whitlock was nowhere to be seen either. “Oh, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”

“Yes. We’re having a meeting. Isn’t Mr. Whitlock coming?” Dr. Jackson found it odd too. He happened to see Mo Stone pushing the food trolley into the room to pour some coffee for everyone. He asked, “Ms. Stone, where’s Mr. Whitlock?”

“Dr. Jackson, I’m not sure where Mr. Whitlock is.” Mo Stone shook her head and served everyone a cup of coffee.

“Wasn’t it Mr. Whitlock who asked us to attend the meeting?” Dr. Jackson asked with curiosity.

"No. It was Mr. Crawford who informed me about the meeting. He didn't ask me to inform Mr. Whitlock to come for the meeting," replied Mo Stone. She was only following Luke's instructions and doing her job.

“I see. That’s weird.” The big screen lit up as soon as Dr. Jackson finished his sentence.

"The meeting is about to start," said Mo Stone. She quickly handed the coffee to all the professors in the meeting room and left with the food trolley.

Mo Stone was not informed to attend the meeting, and she did not receive any instructions to prepare the meeting agenda in advance. Only the professors were asked to attend the meeting, so she should not be there.

The door was closed. Luke’s face appeared on the big screen.

Luca’s heart skipped a beat.

Even though they had just parted this morning, she could still feel her heart fluttering when she saw him.

“Good morning, professors.” Luke’s voice slowly came from the speakers.

His deep, rich voice came into Luca’s ears. She slightly clenched her fists. Her heart pounded faster uncontrollably.

“Good morning, Mr. Crawford.” The professors in the meeting expressed their respect to Luke and greeted him.

“Today, I gathered everyone here to attend a short meeting. It’s about Watson Biopharmaceuticals’ general manager. Based on our investigation, we found out that Mr. Whitlock is a corporate spy sent by Pierre Mallory. He has been fired by the company. Contact me in private if anyone here has revealed our company's classified research projects to him. This concerns every professor's research findings. I hope everyone can take this seriously," Luke announced the matter expressionlessly.

Luca looked down. The corner of her lips slightly curled up.

Luke did listen to what she said. Otherwise, he would not have fired the general manager after Pierre got into trouble.

Dr. Jackson’s expression turned serious without him noticing it. “Mr. Crawford, what are you going to do to Mr. Whitlock?”

“I’ve already sent him to the police station. I’m not going to look into the professors and researchers who have already revealed any confidential information to him. But I don’t want to see anything like this happen again in the future,” answered Luke. He had already asked Jason to call the police.

The reason why he did not call the police himself was that he did not have to deal with such matters himself.

Also, if Luke was the one who called the police, the police officers might misunderstand him.

There was dead silence in the meeting room.

Luca briefly knew what the situation was now. After all, Mr. Whitlock had the right to manage the funds for their research projects. That was why there were a few professors among them who were close to Mr. Whitlock.

Even if the professors did not reveal the information, the researchers might have told him about it.

Luca realized that Pierre might have found out about all their research.

However, it was not too late yet. Pierre was running away from the police and the authorities. He was too busy to plot something evil.

Luke continued, “There’s one more thing. Our company will be holding a team-building event this Friday. It’s a celebration party for Dr. Craw’s successful drug launch.”

Luca suddenly lifted her head when her name was mentioned.

A party?

It seemed like Mr. Whitlock had secretly bribed some of the professors. However, it had not been long since Dr. Albus’ case. Luca reckoned that the professors would not have disclosed all the confidential information to Mr. Whitlock.

They might have revealed some of it, but it would not be too big of a problem.

After Luca left the meeting room, she returned to her office. She asked Rhett to inform all the researchers to come into her office.

Her office was big, but it looked a little crowded when all the researchers, including Rhett, were in her office.

“Dr. Craw, everyone’s here,” said Rhett as he checked if everyone was present.

Luca looked up and went straight to the point, “I attended a short meeting just now, and I need to tell everyone about what I heard. First, Mr. Crawford has already confirmed that Mr. Whitlock was a corporate spy. Has anyone ever revealed our research data to him?”

“No,” replied the researchers.

Luca added, “Mr. Crawford said that he wouldn’t hold anyone accountable even if someone has revealed any information to Mr. Whitlock. After all, no one knew that Mr. Whitlock was a corporate spy, but you must be honest and tell us if you’ve ever given him any information.”

“Dr. Craw, Mr. Whitlock has never personally talked to me,” said one of the researchers.

“Same here,” added the other researchers.

Rhett slowly spoke, “Mr. Whitlock talked to me before, but I reported to you about it. I didn’t give him any information either.”

“Alright. Good job.” Luca nodded. She knew the researchers would not disobey her if she told them not to do something.

“Secondly, our company will be holding a team-building event this Friday. The venue isn’t confirmed yet, but it’s mainly to throw a celebration party for our research team. Be sure to watch out for the company’s announcement when the time comes,” added Luca.

There was excitement in everyone's eyes when they heard that there would be a team-building event.

Luca waved her hand and said, "I'll leave you to your work if there's nothing else."
