Ginny and Luke's eyes met several times, but they were all very brief.
But they had flirted with each other many times, so there was no need to perform in public here.
A moment later, Sheriff Nelson was called away by a waitress and had no time to continue his secret observation.
After the busyness at Ginny's place when she first came in, there were only two people talking to her.
Given her current status, there are only two people here who are qualified to talk to her. One of them is Jeffrey Soderbergh, a famous New York financier, and the other is a city councilor.
Jeffrey's cousin is New York City mayor Mike Soderbergh, and the congressman is a fellow mayor.
Not far away, Jeffrey's wife Aurora and daughter Lindsay were also there, but they did not mix in with the two groups of "ladies". Instead, they formed their own group and belonged to the "ladies" group.
Of course Luke knew the Soderbergh family.
The couple initially misunderstood that their daughter Lindsay's sponsorship of a painter named Monroe was a love affair, which caused many disputes in New York City.
Finally, it was Luke who recommended Dr. Harley to the painter Monroe, and sent him to another place for recuperation, and the family finally found peace.
As for whether there was any power-for-money transaction involved when Jeffrey brought a congressman to see Ginny, Luke had no interest in knowing.
In the United States, money and power are always inseparable twins.
If rich people want to be comfortable, they must use money to gain the protection of some "power".
If politicians want to keep their positions, they also need the support of big capitalists.
Luke wanted to have some of the conveniences of a big capitalist, but didn't want to have to bear the trouble of socializing and entertaining, so he could only let Ginny down.
Fortunately, with Ginny's current wealth and status, there are only a handful of people who are qualified to negotiate with her.
Most of the time, President Ginny only needs to ask the public relations department to handle it.
She came tonight because of Luke's consideration.
It's because someone hasn't attended the mobile phone company's official report for several days, so her position as a secretary is a bit mismatched.
She didn't need to say anything extra, but with those few looks just now, a certain chairman will appear "sensibly" after tonight.
There were only five minutes left before the party officially started at eight o'clock. A tall and thin woman walked in again. It was Pepper Potts.
Then, there was an even more lively greeting scene than when Ginny arrived just now.
Selina was a little surprised: "Why is she here too? Is the party tonight so high-profile?"
Luke shrugged. "Mike Soderbergh is still the mayor of New York. Even if he wants to step down, he still has half a year to go. If you want to survive in New York, you have to give the Soderbergh family some face."
Sure enough, Pepper soon joined Jeffrey's circle, and the four of them stood together chatting.
But Pepper and Ginny seemed closer.
At Luke's suggestion, Ginny has always stood on the same side as Pepper on the board of directors of Stark Group.
Both of them are women and maintain a good personal relationship. Now their smiles to each other are obviously much more sincere.
Then the party officially began.
The congressman came to the stage and spouted off some official remarks, and everyone applauded politely, indicating, "Got it, you can step down now."
The MP also tactfully stepped down and continued to talk to the people on the scheduled list.
Ginny and Pepper were chatting together.
As the de facto executive president of Stark Group and the president of Titanium Mobile Phone Company, whose market value and cash flow are rapidly expanding, the two can cooperate in many aspects.
Pepper actually came for Ginny, and soon the two girls left the hall together and went straight to a room to talk.
Before leaving, Ginny's eyes found Luke again and she gave him a look that said "you know what I mean".
Luke responded with a look that said "got it", and he and Selina hid behind the long dining table where the food was placed, and watched the performance peacefully while waiting for the time to dance to come.
Compared to Selina, his ears and mind communication can be regarded as a powerful tool for "secret observation", and he can easily hear a lot of gossip and negative materials.
Among them, the two "socialite" sister groups revealed the most information about each other, but the gossip about these two parties is also the least worthy of attention.
He quickly turned his attention to the conversations of other people, and did not forget to record some key points on his black-framed glasses for Xiao Wo to back up.
Just then, a phone call came.
Luke looked and saw that it was Sheriff Nelson calling.
After the call was connected, Nelson just asked him to find the security personnel immediately and ask them to lead the way to the second floor of Building B.
At the same time, Ginny sent a short message, which simply said one thing.
Something went wrong in the room where she and Pepper were talking, and Nelson, Mayer's son Cook, and a young woman appeared naked in the hidden bedroom of the suite.
What’s worse, the young woman is almost dead.
After seeing the news, Luke pulled Selina over and they immediately rushed to the place Sheriff Nelson mentioned.
There was no one to lead the way. He had Ginny's cell phone location, so he didn't need anyone to lead the way.
On the way, he showed Selina Ginny's text message.
Selina was stunned: "These big guys...are they all playing so crazy? I thought this was a serious party!"
Luke has no interest in covering the private lives of these New York bigwigs. On the contrary, he will not be surprised by anything these people do.
If you have money, you can do whatever you want!
There are too many real cases in New York to prove this, because there are so many rich people here, and there are always some weird and stupid people among them.
"When there are so many people, there are always a few guys who don't follow the beaten path. Maybe they just like to try something exciting and specifically look for this occasion to have fun." He said casually.
Selina: "... Now that you're done having fun, you want to die, right?"
Luke: "It's not unusual for other people to do this, but our "big boss" doesn't seem like someone who would do such a stupid thing. Let's go and take a look first."
The two chatted for a few words and found the place.
Looking at the four security guards standing at the door, Luke took out his police badge and gave his name.
Among the four security guards, two male security guards belong to the villa owners.
Luke had impressions of both female security guards, one was Pepper's and the other was Ginny's.
For wealthy people of the level of the two women, their personal safety cannot be entrusted to the Soderbergh family security guards. Even if they are in the other party’s villa, they will bring their own security guards.
However, the secretary who used to follow Pepper didn't come, which made Luke a little curious.
The three security guards at the door had obviously received the notification. They quickly checked the police badges and wallets of the two people and let them pass immediately.
After entering, there were three security guards standing at the door, and the two women were still Pepper and Ginny's people.
After taking two more steps, I saw two women sitting and two men standing in the living room.
Luke laughed in his heart: They are all acquaintances.
The expressions of these four people were not very good at the moment. When they heard the door open, they all looked over.
