Luke and Selina danced and chatted on the side for a few minutes. In the end, the sharp-eyed little monkey noticed them and ran over with a smile.
Karen and Hux greeted them as well.
However, Karen had a strange expression on her face as she looked back and forth between Luke and Selina.
She looked like she was sizing up … a love rival?
Luke and Selina greeted them calmly, before Claire dragged Luke to dance with her.
Of course, they weren't dancing a pas de deux. Instead, they danced with the revelers in front of the fire — of course, they didn't take off their shirts.
After dancing for a while, Luke returned with the little monkey.
The little monkey handed him a can of beer, which he decisively refused. She could only give him a can of coke. "You used to drink too, right?"
Luke shrugged. "I stopped drinking after I became a police officer."
It wasn't that he couldn't hold his liquor, but that alcohol had almost no effect on him, just like a certain old popsicle who didn't drink much.
At the very least, coke could replenish a lot of calories and provide for the body's daily consumption.
After chatting and laughing for a while, Karen sat down on his other side.
Selina ignored her and continued drinking beer as she chatted with Claire and Hux.
Given how easily Karen took off her clothes, she couldn't even catch up to Miss Jenny, so she was still far from success.
Suddenly, a girl walked up to Luke and stretched out her hand. "Hello, let's get to know each other."
Luke shook her hand with a smile. "Just call me Luke."
"I'm Clarice," the upper-middle-class girl introduced herself to him.
Luke was still smiling as he stared at their hands. "Is this an invitation?"
Clarice seemed to be stunned for a moment as she held his hand and didn't let go.
Hearing Luke's words, she smiled. "Oh, maybe it's because you're too handsome that I can't help myself."
They let go of each other's hands.
Clarice then stretched out her hand to Selina. "I don't think we've met before. How about we get to know each other?"
Luke, however, reached out and shook her hand again. "Just call her Selina. But can I invite you to dance? "
Clarice was stunned for a moment before she smiled. "That's great."
Under the girls' gazes, Luke led the girl who had suddenly appeared into the dancing crowd.
Hux was confused.
Karen's face was full of surprise and she cursed in her heart. Another love rival?
Claire had a strange expression on her face. She looked at Selina and Karen, feeling that her brother would be in trouble tonight.
Selina's expression was the same as usual. She picked up the beer and took a sip, but her gaze fell on Clarice.
She knew better than anyone what kind of person Luke was.
It was definitely not normal for him to take the initiative to approach a girl.
Karen, the fair, rich, and beautiful young lady, had taken the initiative to attack him several times, but to no avail. A girl who had appeared out of nowhere was immediately pulled by him to dance. This was even more abnormal.
Recalling how Luke had interfered and prevented her from shaking hands with Clarice, Selina became even more suspicious.
She told Claire that she had to go to the bathroom, and she took Dollar to the woods.
After staying in the car for a moment, she quickly returned to the beach and sat down next to Claire.
Naturally, Luke noticed what she was doing. He praised her inwardly, but he continued, "Really? You're from Texas? That's too much of a coincidence, me too … "
Half an hour later, Luke returned and told Claire to get in the car. He said that he had good news to tell her, and that he was going home to rest tonight.
Naturally, Claire didn't have any objections. After saying goodbye to Karen and Hux, they left together.
Luke typed in a name on the tablet and gave it to Selina in the passenger seat.
In the backseat, Claire found it odd. "Huh, Dollar, you're very lively today. Ah, so much saliva. Haha, don't lick it, don't lick it! "
Luke, however, knew that Dollar was just Dollar right now. Gold Nugget's clone No. 1 had already taken over Selina's body.
With a smile on his face, there was an indescribable look in his eyes. "Claire, are you familiar with that classmate called Clarice?"
Resisting Dollar's saliva attack, Claire shook her head. "So-so. We've talked a few times, but we don't talk much."
"What's her personality like?" he continued to ask.
Claire found that odd. "Luke, you're not really going to pursue her, are you? Well, I'm not saying she's bad, but I really don't know much about her. Should I ask around tomorrow? "
Luke said, "No need. I just think she's pretty cheerful."
Selina looked at him and shook her head slightly.
She was telling him that there was nothing suspicious about Clarice's identity, and that there was no match in the criminal database or the files of important people.
Luke looked away and casually told her about the volunteer job he had found for Claire.
Stunned for a moment, Claire screamed, "Ahhhh! Luke, is this true? "
Frowning, Luke endured the itching in his ears. "You don't have to be so happy, do you? It's not like you're a die-hard fan of Sheerah. "
Claire screamed, "Don't you know about this benefit show? Just the number of celebrities and singers who will be participating has already reached 20, including two of my favorite rock bands … Uh, okay, you definitely haven't heard of their names. "
Only then did she remember that her brother didn't even know that Sheerah's new song was number one on the charts. How could he possibly care about which celebrities and singers were participating in the benefit show?
Luke smiled. "Then you have to be mentally prepared."
Claire asked, "Prepared for what?"
Luke quickly put on two earphones and said, "The minimum number of celebrities and singers participating in this benefit show is expected to be fifty, and the ideal number is … a hundred."
"Ahhhh ~" As expected, Claire screamed again.
Frustrated, Selina covered her ears and glared at Luke accusingly. He had actually put on earphones for himself when he knew that Claire was going to scream again.
In the backseat, Dollar whimpered and shrank away from the existence that had suddenly turned into a screaming banshee.
After they got home, the overly excited Claire was dragged to combat training by Selina, who couldn't take it anymore, and the living room finally quieted down again.
Luke connected to the database at home and searched for Clarice Johnson's information again.
Just now, when this Clarice touched his hand, a system notification rang out.
System: Unknown energy detected attempting to connect with the host's mind. Do you accept?
He decisively chose no, and stopped this Clarice from making contact with Selina.
God knew how this mental connection was activated, but it was safer not to act according to the other party's wishes.
Claire, on the other hand, had always had Gold Nugget No. 2 on her, and in the symbiotic state, she was extremely resistant to mental attacks, so there was little chance of anything going wrong.
