Luke didn't mention the shootout in New York again. There was no need to show off in front of his family.
So, he tried his best to amuse Catherine by telling her some funny cases.
For example, a woman had an argument with a clerk at a fast food restaurant, and in her fury, she took off her pants and threw sh * t at the clerk.
Just as he said that, he was immediately hit by Catherine angrily.
Thankfully, they were all drinking, or it would've been really disgusting.
Luke could only change the topic. He said that a woman returned to her dorm in the middle of the night, took a shortcut and climbed over the railing, only to be caught in her underwear and had to call for help.
Catherine didn't believe him. "What brand of underwear was it?"
Robert was suspicious. "It's not swollen?" Catherine glared at him angrily, and he quickly shut up and turned his head.
Luke shrugged. "I think so, but it's from USC. I don't know if it's true."
Time passed just like that.
Everybody, including Selina, slept in the villa that night. There was even an extra room, since Claire was going to sleep with Selina.
Luke didn't know what they were talking about, and didn't stop them. He simply told them not to sleep too late, since they still had to go out the next day.
At nine the next morning, when everybody got up for breakfast, someone knocked on the door.
Claire, who Catherine had asked to open the door, shouted a moment later, "Luke, when did you prepare a car for us?"
Luke was confused. "What car?"
Claire said, "A Lincoln Stretch Limousine."
Baffled, Luke walked to the door and saw a familiar face. Thinking for a moment, he asked, "Did Mr. Takagi summon you?"
The little black man's face was full of smiles. "Yes, sir. I also know that it was you and Mr. John who caught the robbers together. "
Luke nodded. "Were you in the garage?"
The black man smiled embarrassedly. "I'm just a driver."
Naturally, Luke didn't ask why he didn't resist the robbers. None of the fifty people in the car dared to.
He simply said with a smile, "It's the police's responsibility to catch the robbers. It's none of your business. Oh, why did Mr. Aoki call you here? "
The black man smiled happily. "I'll be at your service during the few days that your family is touring Los Angeles. I'll deliver and pick them up. Also, if you want to know where to play, you can look for me. I'm a local expert."
Only then did Luke remember that he had mentioned it to Takagi before, but the man had gotten such an expensive villa, and he still remembered it.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. 'I'll definitely owe him a favor.' As long as it didn't go against his principles, he had to help Greenwood at least once.
For now, this favor wasn't too precious.
But what about five years later? What about ten years later?
Half a year ago, Luke had been an ordinary young man, but now, he had killed fifty armed robbers on his own.
That sly old fox Takagi had really grasped one of Luke's traits.
Of course, if Luke was an ingrate or someone who didn't remember favors, Takagi wouldn't lose anything.
After all, the amount of money one gave to the person who saved them depended purely on one's heart.
Takagi took this opportunity to make Luke owe him a favor, which was an unexpected gain.
Luke went in and told everybody about it.
Claire shrieked excitedly, "Ahhh! I want to go to Disney, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Sunset Boulevard!"
Luke didn't stop her. In any case, she could do whatever she wanted.
Catherine's face was also full of longing. "Can we go to the Getty Art Center too?"
Luke nodded with a smile. "Of course."
Joseph asked, "Can we watch a movie? I heard that there's a cartoon called Space Story for Christmas this year. "
Luke said, "Sure. Can you talk to Claire and Mom about the specific time? Hm, we can also watch a movie at the China Theater. "He remembered this place that often appeared in entertainment novels.
Robert didn't say anything. Luke chuckled and whispered to him, "Do you want me to ask the driver to take you to the San Fernando Valley alone?"
Robert said, "Get lost!"
Luke didn't agree with everybody. Instead, he summarized everyone's opinions after they got into the car, before he asked Luke what they should do.
Luke asked, "How long are you going to stay?"
Robert thought for a moment and said, "Five days."
Luke said, "You can stay for a week. It's not easy to have a car."
Robert said, "I can stay for five days at most."
Luke thought for a moment, but could only give up.
After all, it really wasn't safe for Catherine to take Claire and Joseph with her.
After confirming the time, Luke quickly made arrangements. "It's best if you don't go to Disneyland for the next two days. There are too many people there, and the fun attractions are all crowded. You might go there in high spirits, but you might pee your pants before it's your turn."
His words were a little crude, but they successfully dispelled Claire's desire to go to Disneyland.
Other places didn't matter, especially when Joseph wanted to watch a movie. As long as they didn't stop at the China Theater, they could watch it at any time.
Robert's San Fernando Valley … well, there was no such attraction.
In the end, they decided to go to Universal Studios, which was similar to Disneyland but less crowded.
The Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills, and the movies could all be done in the next few days.
Of course, Beverly Hills was probably the most boring part of the attraction, because the things there were too expensive for a minor police officer to buy.
Luke's and Robert's annual salaries combined were only enough for a celebrity to buy one or two outfits there.
However, Claire and Catherine clearly wanted to go, and Selina was also very excited. So, was he really going to let them … go shopping?
Luke secretly pulled Robert over and said, "I can pay ten thousand dollars, and Catherine and the other two can each buy something they like. What do you think?"
Robert glared at him and then gritted his teeth. "I'll pay 7,500 dollars, and you'll pay 7,500 dollars. Catherine is my wife, Selina is yours, and Claire is your brother's responsibility. You'll pay half of it. Each of them can pay 5,000 dollars."
Luke chuckled. "Deal."
After they left, he pulled Selina back and whispered something to her, which made her eyes widen. "Really?"
Luke said, "They can't not buy you Christmas presents if they have them, can they? For me, you're my family too. "
Selina hugged him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Okay, then you're my brother from now on."
Luke was lost for words. Didn't you feel guilty before you said that?
Luke didn't know exactly what the three ladies bought, but they were all in a good mood after that.
