Luke watched the car disappear from sight, then looked away and invited Earl, "Want to come in and sit for a while?"
Earl shook his head and looked at Luke with a strange expression.
Lu Ke raised an eyebrow, as if he had thought of something, and laughed, changing the subject: "Please keep an eye on things at the bureau these next few days. In a couple more days, I should be able to get things sorted out and then go back to work at the bureau."
Tonight, he and Rachel are hosting a dinner for State Assemblyman Dodge and his wife, along with Commissioner Penning and his wife who are also coming over.
Then tomorrow I'll accompany Lorna to her new school for her registration.
The next two days happened to be the weekend, and he now had a huge sum of six million. He planned to use the weekend to find a place to buy the raw materials. Once the raw materials arrived, he could call Carl, who was still looking for his daughter in New York City, over to help him prepare the drug that could restart the gene lock.
Gene lock restarted.
This is a big deal!
In the afternoon.
Rachel left work early and took Lorna home.
The stair railing has been repaired.
Rachel walked over, inspected it, and nodded at the part that was almost the same color as the adjacent railing: "The repair is quite professional."
Luke, who was admiring Lorna's hair which had been dyed black again, smiled at Rachel as she walked over and said, "She's a professional."
Those two repairmen were legitimate immigrants who made their way here through their skills.
These people are far superior to those incompetent mediocre people.
Rachel glanced at her watch and said, "Let's go to the restaurant first. Bates just called; she and Dodge have already left."
Luke nodded.
At night.
Inside a private room at the Forest Whisper restaurant in Runyon Canyon Park.
Luke, Rachel, and Lorna hosted a dinner for State Representatives Dodge and his wife, as well as the Pennings, to thank them for all their help during the Mil community bombing.
At the dinner table, Luke, Dodge, and Panning frequently raised their glasses, exchanging toasts and laughter.
Rachel was responsible for taking care of Mrs. Dodge, Bates, and Penning's wife, Michelle.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was very good.
The relationship between the three families seemed to be further enhanced over each glass of fine wine.
In short, it boils down to one sentence.
The social aspect was very successful.

the next day.
early morning.
Luke stood sideways in front of the bathroom vanity mirror, chin slightly raised, and looked at Rachel in the mirror, who was helping him tie his red scarf.
Rachel's tie-tying technique is already quite skillful.
She quickly tied Lu Ke's tie, then straightened his bow tie, before taking a step back to look at her handsome fiancé in a suit.
Rachel nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, very energetic."
"Thank you."
Lu Ke smiled slightly.
Rachel stepped forward, patted Luke's broad chest, then walked out of the bathroom, opened the master bedroom door, went to the side bedroom not far away, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door open and went in.
into the eye.
In the second bedroom, on a bed with a cute design, a girl with long, flowing black hair is sealed inside the blanket.
Seeing this, Rachel couldn't help but laugh.
“Lorna”.
"……Um?"
The blanket twitched, and then Lorna, who liked to bury her whole head in the blanket when she slept, opened her eyes sleepily and yawned.
"Time to get up, today is your return to school."
"……it is good."
Lorna paused for a moment before realizing that today was not only the day she returned to school, but also the day she was going to a new school. She quickly nodded in agreement.
Fifteen minutes later.
Wearing a loose black T-shirt, slim-fit jeans, and white sneakers, Lorna walked downstairs carrying a simple black and white backpack.
Luke and Rachel were already seated at the table.
Lorna walked over, pulled out a chair, sat down, thanked Rachel who handed her a glass of milk, then yawned and looked at Luke with some curiosity: "You drank for so long last night, but why do you look more energetic than me?"
Lu Ke's eyes were clear, showing no signs of a hangover, and he smiled and said, "This is talent."
Lorna said enviously, "I want that kind of talent too. I feel so sleepy. Can I apply to go to this school again next Monday?"
Lu Ke did not speak.
It wasn't his turn to speak.
"no!"
Rachel rejected Lorna's proposal, and looked at Lorna, saying, "It's already September 15th, school has long since started. If you want to graduate smoothly next June, you can't delay any longer."
Lorna said, "I know," then sighed and buried her head in her simple but delicious bacon and egg sandwich.
after awhile.
Luke's black Audi A8 drove out of the garage, and after reaching the intersection, he turned right and drove towards Marlborough Private High School, which was only two blocks away.
Before 7:30 a.m., students were already coming and going at the entrance of Marlborough Private High School.
A security guard on duty at the entrance saw Luke's black Audi and reached out to stop it.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the driver's side window roll down, and then a badge with an eagle emblem came into view.
"FBI, open the door!"
"...Yes."
The security guard on duty subconsciously snapped back to reality, looked at his colleague in the management office, waved, and signaled the other party to open the gate.
The gate is open.
Lu Ke closed the car window again, stepped on the gas, and drove straight into the campus in front of him, under the watchful eyes of more than a dozen male and female students.
Rachel contacted Sarah Lawrence, a trustee of Marlborough Private High School.
Sarah Lawrence, 45, is not only a board member of Marlborough High School, but also serves as the school's principal.
As soon as Luke parked the car and got out with Lorna, the secretary who had been waiting in the parking lot confirmed Rachel's identity and then led them to Sarah Lawrence's office.
"Dong dong."
"Enter."
The secretary pushed open the door and entered, looking at Sarah Lawrence, who was sitting behind her desk and seemingly signing several documents, and said, "Madam, Mr. Dane and Ms. Willellis have arrived."
Sarah Lawrence, who was signing the documents, looked up at Rachel, nodded and smiled, and then said to her secretary, "Have Olivia come up here."
The secretary nodded and turned to leave.
Sarah then gestured to the three chairs in front of the desk, stood up, and smiled as she invited Luke, Rachel, and Lorna to sit down.
After Rachel sat down, she handed Sarah, who was dressed in a black business suit, a resume she had prepared for Lorna in her backpack over the past few days, and said with a smile, "Sorry, Sarah, I've been too busy."
Sarah took the resume and rolled her eyes at Rachel.
"There's no need for such formalities between us, you famous host. I'm truly sorry, just treat me to afternoon tea."
"Okay, then I'll leave work early this afternoon."
"Today won't work, I have a board meeting this afternoon. How about tomorrow?"
"Okay."
Without hesitation, Rachel replied, "I'm free anytime. It's perfect timing, tomorrow's the weekend. How about we go shopping at the mall tomorrow?"
Sarah laughed and said, "Sure, no problem."
Rachel nodded.
"Okay, then it's settled."
"no problem."
As they were talking, the two women made an appointment to go shopping together the next day to buy themselves some autumn clothes.
Rachel then introduced Luke to Sarah.
“Luc, my fiancé.”
"Sarah Lawrence, when I was a host, the first interview I was given was by Sarah."
"Hello."
Sarah extended her hand to Luke and smiled slightly: "Mr. Dane."
Luke shook hands with Sarah and smiled, "I still prefer people to call me Luke."
While talking.
The secretary knocked on the door again, and then, behind her, a woman with long black hair, brown eyes, and glasses, who looked to be around thirty-five years old, walked in.
“Olivia, the headmistress of the twelfth grade.”
Sarah introduced the newcomers to Luke, Rachel, and Lorna. Then, she handed the resume to Olivia, who had just entered, and pointed to Lorna sitting next to Luke, saying to Olivia, "This is Lorna Dane, whom I told you before that a new student would be joining us."
