Lu Ke has always been uninhibited.

"I was actually planning to make arrangements for this weekend."

Lu Ke said to Pan Ning, "Rachel said it would be best to invite him after you're done with your work. Thinking about it, that makes sense."

Upon hearing this, Pan Ning looked at Rachel, who was sitting not far away comforting Lorna, and then looked at Luke and said, "You've found a very nice fiancée."

Following Pan Ning's gaze, Lu Ke looked at Rachel, who was facing away from them and gently comforting Lorna, and said with a slight smile, "I think so too."

Last time, he joked with Rachel.

They say that finding a good wife can bring prosperity to three generations.

result……

It was a strange coincidence.

Hit by accident.

There was nothing dramatic, nothing dramatic, and nothing surprising or romantic.

that's it!

Luke and Rachel's relationship went from boyfriend and girlfriend to fiancé and fiancée in a flash.

This depth...

It's amazing speed.

"fair enough."

Pan Ning smiled and said to Lu Ke, "Although Director Louis only looks at ability and never cares about background or skin color, when it comes to promotion, those with families are definitely given an advantage over those who are unmarried."

Luke nodded: "I know. A few days ago, Director Louis called me and asked me to go to Sacramento when I had time to pick up the engagement gift he had prepared."

In order to succeed within the system, a married person with a stable relationship, even if it's just a facade, is definitely better than an unmarried person.

at this point.

It is applicable to both East and West.

After a man gets married, he becomes more mature and stable, and can be entrusted with more important responsibilities.

This is a statement of high emotional intelligence.

Low emotional intelligence?

A man who has started a family is no longer a lone wolf without any support; he now has a vulnerability.

A married man is like an angel with broken wings, no longer able to fly freely as he pleases.

Luke is very capable.

But before that, he was a lone wolf.

Whether viewed from the FBI's perspective or from Director Louis's perspective, a lone wolf with no weaknesses and no one to control him is the kind of person who is not easy to manage.

This is why Director Louis suddenly told Luke that the party required bringing a female companion.

He has something on Luke.

But Director Louis wasn't thinking of going to war with Luke; he was thinking of using Louis for his own purposes. So, a false identity was only meant to be used as a last resort.

After all, Lu Ke's strength is undeniable.

So what if his false identity is exposed? The world is vast, and Lu Ke can still live a very comfortable life.

Luke was well aware of Director Louis's intentions.

But he didn't care.

As for proposing to Rachel...

Although Luke felt it was a bit abrupt, the atmosphere was right, and he couldn't just say it casually. Besides, there was nothing wrong with proposing to Rachel.

At the very least, whether it was at that party or in the recent Mil community bombing, Rachel's performance was impeccable.

At the party, Rachel was able to help Luke chat with the group of women, handling the "lady diplomacy" very smoothly.

After the Mil community bombing, Rachel was able to get to the hospital immediately and stay with Luke, keeping him company day and night.

and……

In the case of the Mills community bombing, Rachel was able to use her connections to help Rudd resolve this identity crisis stemming from White House staff in Washington.

even……

He can also take care of his "sister" at the funeral.

Luke looked toward Rachel, who was sitting with her back to him, comforting Lorna.

Rachel seemed to sense a gaze from behind and turned to look.

moment.

Eyes facing each other.

A gentle smile appeared on Rachel's delicate face.

Pan Ning, who was standing nearby, noticed this scene, smiled, and said to Lu Ke, "Okay, see you tomorrow night. I'm leaving now."

Lu Ke snapped out of his daze, looked at Pan Ning, and nodded: "Okay, I'll take you."

Say it.

Lu Ke accompanied Pan Ning towards the road not far away. After seeing Pan Ning off to his car, he nodded to the agent who was Pan Ning's trusted confidant sitting inside the car, and then watched Pan Ning get into the car and drive away from the cemetery.

When Lu Ke returned to the cemetery after seeing Pan Ning off.

Lorna, who had been crying for a long time and was on the verge of tears, leaned on Rachel's shoulder and fell into a deep sleep.

"Boss."

"Director."

Debbie and Earl stood up to greet Luke as he approached.

Luke looked at Earl: "I'll be back next Monday. These days, I'll leave the operations team to you, deputy director."

Earl was slightly taken aback.

"Deputy supervisor?"

"Deputy Supervisor!"

Debbie's eyes lit up, and she looked at Luke with renewed enthusiasm.

Jesse was right after all.

Promotions and raises are never based on how much work you do.

It's not about whether you've chosen the right leader.

"Boss, what about me? No, what about me and Jack?"

"Are the deputy director and team leader of Action Group One suitable?"

"Hiss, too..."

"Don't get too excited yet."

Seeing that Debbie was about to be pulled away on the spot, Luke quickly spoke up, pointing at Earl and saying, "You and Jack, I'm giving you a chance, but whether you can be promoted depends on our Deputy Director Earl. If she says it's okay, then you and Jack can be promoted."

Debbie stared at Earl with her big, blinking eyes, her hands clasped together, looking at him pitifully.

Earl opened his mouth, then snapped out of his joy at being promoted and looked at Debbie, who was pleading with him like a god, with a headache.

Luke didn't care about all that. After promoting Earl to deputy supervisor, he took over from Rachel, picked up Lorna who had fallen asleep crying, and went straight back to the car.

Rachel got into the back seat and fastened Lorna's seatbelt.

Luke drove straight out of the cemetery and headed towards his home in the Hillcrest neighborhood.

By the time I got home, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.

Luke carried Lorna, who had been asleep the whole way, back to the second bedroom on the second floor, put her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then went to the living room on the first floor. He took out a bottle of bourbon, a wine glass and an ice ball from the refrigerator, poured himself a glass of bourbon, and also poured a glass of red wine for Rachel, who went back to her room to change.

after awhile.

Rachel, having changed out of her black dress and into casual clothes, picked up a glass of red wine from the bar and went to the backyard, where she found Luke sitting on a deck chair on the lawn.

Rachel sat down on a deckchair and placed her wine glass on the small wooden table between the two deckchairs: "Bates just called. I made an appointment with her for six o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Bates Dodge.

Mrs. Dodge, the wife of State Representative Dodge.

After that estate party, Rachel maintained good relationships with the ladies through text messages and phone calls.

These days, their men almost always find out about the situation and ask if they need any help by having them call Rachel.

Lu Ke nodded: "I just made an appointment with Pan Ning, and asked him to bring his wife along tomorrow night."

Rachel said, "Okay, I'll double-check with the restaurant when I get to work this afternoon. By the way, are you going out this afternoon?"

Luke shook his head: "I've made an appointment with people from the bank and insurance company; they'll be over this afternoon."

The main issue is the arrangements for the Danes' funeral.

For example, the issue of insurance compensation for houses.

and also……

Bank of California.

The bank contacted him proactively.

He figured that the Danes might have debts in the bank, and since Luke was the eldest son of the Danes, they were planning to ask him to come and pay off the debts.

Luke simply arranged for the two groups to meet together.
