Selena: "But... she won't go home for the holidays?"
Luke shrugged: "You know, after many children are released from home, their hearts become wild, and it's not surprising that they never return. Ximena said that she wants to stay here for a while and see if there is any opportunity."
Selena: "She wants to be a star?"
Luke hehe: "No, she has changed her ambition now. It is said that someone in the company called... Well, Gilello's female senior executive inspired her, and she wanted to see if she could also work in the financial industry. "
Selena: "... Is she drunk? Aren't the guys who play finance all from those Ivy League schools? Did she pass high school math?"
Luke still kind of agrees with this in his heart. Those who play finance must be sensitive to numbers, otherwise it will be difficult to play finance.
With Ximena's mathematical talent, it is estimated that she will never become an elite in finance in this life.
He could only say: "She is still young, and if she wants to try this way, no one can stop her. This is her freedom."
After hearing this, Selena didn't say a word.
This kind of topic involving life choices and future planning, she is really not qualified to dictate to Ximena, not even Luke.
At most they could advise and advise, but they could not force Ximena to accept their views and opinions.
Selena was silent for a moment, and then said: "Then where are you going with her for Christmas? Let me tell you first, don't bring her here to roll the sheets, it will make me very upset."
Luke laughed: "Where do you want to go? Zhongfu Company will hold an internal company reception on Christmas Eve, and Ximena, as an intern, is also qualified to enter. Well, well, it is actually to be in charge Miscellaneous tasks, such as carrying plates and delivering wine. Of course, she doesn't do it and no one says anything, but her idea of staying in that company for a while is not easy to realize. So...you understand."
Selena was speechless for a moment: "Then how do you get in?"
Luke was full of righteousness: "As a member of the Los Angeles Police Department, I have the responsibility to patrol around for the safety of the general public during this universally celebrated festival. Needless to say thank you, because I am obliged to work overtime."
Selena: …
She also felt that she had asked a stupid question, and could only sulking aside with her lips pouted.
It's so heartbreaking to be alone at home watching TV on Christmas Eve.
Luke chuckled: "Don't be angry, I have prepared your lunch and dinner tomorrow, you just need to take it out and heat it up to eat, there is steak you want."
Selena nodded listlessly, as if she had been severely shocked.
Luke couldn't help it either.
He is a normal man, and he has been separated from Jimena for half a year, and he has never had such a thing.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't find a suitable partner and timing, unless he sleeps Selena.
But he didn't want the relationship between the two to turn into a relationship between a man and a woman.
Just like brothers, it's better not to go into business together. Brothers can become enemies if they really talk about it.
The same is true for partners, which involves the relationship between men and women, and if it is not done well, they will turn against each other.
Ximena has always been passionate. When the two contacted, her attitude was unabashed, and she almost said, "Come to me with a box of safety measures."
What can Luke do about this? Of course I happily accepted it.
The next day was Christmas Eve, December 24th.
Luke drove out, leaving Selena depressed at home watching soap operas, cursing some perverted bastard.
Luke wore more comfortable and casual sportswear. After all, this is not going to work, so he doesn't need to wear formal clothes to be mature.
When the car arrived at Zhongfu Building, it was already evening, and Luke drove into the underground garage, followed by a black extended Lincoln.
Luke took a look, and found that the driver was a small black man, with a smile on his face, and he looked very happy.
He didn't care, and went up the lobby from the elevator.
Walking to the front desk, I asked the middle-aged man at the front desk. The man pointed to the touch screen not far in front of him: "Enter the name of the person you are looking for, and you can see which floor he is on."
Luke: ... Ximena seems to be an intern, right? Can you find it on this list
As a result, a man entered the gate over there, also looking for someone.
The front desk also said the same thing, Luke hurriedly stepped aside, and the man started to operate on the touch screen.
After a while, Luke watched the man find a life named Holly Gillero, and was startled: This person's name... seems to be the senior executive that Ximena said
He quickly followed the man and walked towards the elevator together.
The man in front of him looked like he was in his early thirties, and he had a white vest under his plaid shirt. Luke didn't need to bother too much, he knew what this man was doing.
walk together! And he's a very good teammate.
When the two reached the elevator entrance, the man turned around vigilantly: "Who are you?"
Luke hehe: "My friend is an intern at Zhongfu Company, and I couldn't find her name on the list. But I heard that there is a senior executive there who seems to be named Gilero, so..."
The man's expression was a bit weird, as if he was very unhappy, but Luke could tell that the unhappiness was not directed at him.
The two entered the elevator. On the way up, in order to avoid the sudden silence in the air, Luke asked casually, "Oh, may I ask, what's your name?"
The man froze for a moment, a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "John."
Luke nodded: "My name is Luke. Nice to meet you. Officer John."
The man was stunned again: "How do you know?"
Luke hehe, he took out his police officer ID card from his inner pocket and shook it: "Because we are colleagues."
The man was surprised: "Are you a policeman? Has Los Angeles accepted such a young child as a policeman?"
But he immediately felt that something was wrong with what he said, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to say..."
Luke raised his hand: "I know, after all, most people come out of the police school and are almost twenty years old. But, you know, sometimes some people can bypass the rules."
John's expression was strange: "You...is this kind of person?"
Luke hehe: "No, I had a little conflict with this kind of person, and the other person tried to transfer me here. But..."
John was curious: "But what?"
Luke: "But I found that the other party seems to have forgotten me."
John: (⊙_⊙?)
Only then did Luke laugh: "So, I'm not a rich man, let alone a second generation, just an ordinary person from Texas."
John's expression also became natural, and he stretched out his hand: "Re-understand, my name is John McLean, from the New York Crime Squad."
Luke was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Luke Coulson, from the Los Angeles West District Serious Crimes Unit."
John's expression became more curious, and he let go of his hand: "How did you..."
