This is a joke! She didn't even know she was pregnant, but he knew
Uh, wait. My menstrual period this month... Lorna's face changed.
The corners of Luke's mouth twitched, revealing a cold and sarcastic smile: "With this money, your children won't have to worry about money, right?"
Lorna was confused, but she shook her head subconsciously.
Luke sneered: "Also, I want to remind you that you already owe a large sum of money, including your life."
Lorna was speechless.
"These are just the down payment for the deal." Luke stood up and said, "If you want to work in a job related to super powers, you have no choice but to accept our employment."
As he spoke, he stretched out his head and patted her white and shiny forehead, actually using mental hypnosis + pheromone manipulation to pass on a phone number.
This was necessary as a safety measure, to ensure that she could not mention the incident to anyone else.
Luna stared blankly at his disappearing back, and then felt someone pulling her hand.
I turned around and saw Carol: "What?"
Carol glanced to the side and said, "Your boyfriend is here. Don't tell him about Mr. Wilson and me."
After saying that, she turned around, passed by Marcos, and went back to the house alone.
Outside the house, only two young men and women were left in silence for a long time.
…
Two nights later, Luke showed up at the coffee shop again.
Carol, who had been waiting there for a long time, only brought a small suitcase with her.
Luke looked at her and asked, "Are you all ready?"
Carol nodded, "Yes, Mr. Wilson."
Luke hummed and looked at Lorna beside her: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Lorna hesitated and asked in a low voice: "Can I... still contact Carol?"
Luke: "Half a year or a year later, depending on how far she has come in with her training."
Lorna breathed a sigh of relief.
Luke spoke again: "You and your boyfriend don't have to move, this store can continue to operate."
Lorna: “Huh?”
Luke motioned for Carol to leave and said casually, "I've dealt with Ferdinand and his men. As long as your boyfriend stops messing around, no one will target you anymore."
As he said this, he waved his hand and took Carol down the mountain.
…
In the few days after Carol left, Lorna was in a bad mood, but she still paid attention to the San Diego newspaper.
There was no news about Ferdinand, but there were reports of several large-scale gang fights in certain neighborhoods.
She showed the news to Marcos, who gave a predictable answer: "Isn't this Ferdinand's territory?"
Luna remained silent, but in her heart she was thinking of the Sentinel Special Service that had never appeared again.
In the past, these people would catch up with them every once in a while.
After this Wilson appeared, he disappeared. Could he have been "dealt with" in the same way
Thinking of that indifferent face, she breathed a sigh of relief: Although this poker face is a bit scary, it is surprisingly reassuring if it is on her side.
Sitting on the top of a small hill where the mountain breeze was blowing, Luna reached out and stroked her belly, and her mind calmed down: It seems that you can grow up safely!
On the other side, Luke and Selina had already driven the cruise ship north again.
Carol had already been hypnotized by him and thrown into Space No. 2, and was taken out by his second-level clone in New York a day later.
Space smuggling is that simple.
Luke had sent her to Texas for full military training at Robert's private security company.
As for the fighting materials, Luke can tailor-make one for him.
I had given Alice similar teaching materials before. Both girls have self-healing abilities and their strength reactions exceed those of ordinary people, so their fighting styles are not much different.
Even though Carol doesn't have bones of steel and claws of steel, she only needs to modify some of the content.
After half a year or a year, Carol will complete her training and become Catherine's personal security guard, responsible for assisting Joseph and Mindy with their security work.
Carol already remembered Luke's favor, so asking her to do this now can be considered as repaying the favor.
Most of the time, she doesn't have much work to do, mainly taking care of her two children when they are out.
Moreover, she is a person who has been beaten and educated by society. She will not contact outsiders at will, let alone leak secrets.
As long as you are not stupid, you will make a wise choice between "being studied" and "being a bodyguard".
In this way, Luke can equip her with a lot of equipment, which is roughly equivalent to a small-sized Lady of Death.
If there is a real emergency, she, a well-trained and fearless super-powered person, is much better than ordinary security guards.
Carol doesn't actually have too many demands on life, and doesn't care whether she stays in Chile or the United States.
She had previously wanted to go to Argentina to farm, and now going to Texas, a sparsely populated state, has finally fulfilled her wish.
Luke had nothing to feel ashamed about helping Carol plan her future, and he didn't use his super powers to interfere with her.
After she was told clearly where she was going next, Carol did not resist, but felt relieved.
Obviously, the problems in getting along with Luna during this period still troubled her.
Now that Lorna has a boyfriend, it seems that she no longer needs her company.
Luke's arrangement gave her a goal to work towards. All that was left was to train step by step and then take up the job.
It is a good thing for Carol, who has no ambitions and is even a little afraid of society, that she doesn't have to worry about where to go or what to do in the future.
While I was thinking, Selina's voice rang out from the top floor: "Luke, come up and help me wipe my back."
He is quick to accept advice.
After going up, Selina was already lying comfortably on the chair, looking like a player who had won by doing nothing.
It is summer in the southern hemisphere, and Santiago has the most comfortable subtropical Mediterranean climate, where most people in the country live.
To the north is the tropical desert climate, and the Atacama Desert in Chile is one of the driest areas in the world.
For a woman who wants tan skin and is not afraid of the sun or heat, this is perfect.
As Luke was applying the oil, she said lazily, "So, Lorna, you just gave up like that?"
Luke: "What else can we do? She lacks family warmth, so she values this child very much. We can't let her take the child with her to be a vigilante."
Selina of course understood this, and changed the subject: "What about her boyfriend? Didn't you 'investigate' his superpowers?"
Lorna and Carol didn't know yet, but Selena saw with her own eyes someone call Marcos out a few nights ago and beat him up in the back hills.
After the fight, someone put on an expression that said "you are useless" and said to Marcos, "With your limited ability, how can you protect Luna when something happens? You might even be arrested and threatened."
If Marcos' heart could be materialized, there would be several big holes on it - they must have been freshly pierced and still warm.
Luke: This is definitely not revenge.
Even though this guy Marcos tried to intercept him halfway and caused a big fight, Luke really just wanted to find out what his abilities were.
