Chapter 280 Offended someone?
What Anne didn't expect was that while she was still struggling, Luke called her.
"Come to the hotel's underground parking lot. Take the elevator and look for the eighth parking space on the left. It's a silver-gray Rolls-Royce with license plate number XXXXX."
Annie was still hesitating about what to say when Luke hung up the phone.
She thought about it for a moment, then put on her clothes and prepared to meet Luke.
Her roommate, who was already very gossipy at the time, asked Annie:
"Is this your ex-boyfriend calling?"
Anne nodded.
"He came to see you?"
Anne nodded.
My roommate's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Then I can..."
"No."
Anne dressed and hurried out of the room.
The roommate was frustrated for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. He put on a piece of clothing, quietly opened the door, and prepared to follow Annie.
But as soon as she turned the corner and reached the elevator, she saw Annie looking at her with a smile.
She had to explain to Anne awkwardly.
"Well, I want to...I want to go downstairs to buy some food. Do you want to?"
Anne shook her head.
The elevator came, but Annie showed no intention of getting on it, so her roommate had to get on it awkwardly.
After Annie saw the elevator start and run for a while, she walked towards the stairwell.
Fortunately, the hotel is not on a high floor.
Anne went to the underground parking lot and quickly found the car.
Lilith got out of the car, opened the door for Annie, and then she stood outside the car.
Seeing Luke, who was still handsome, Anne was like a primary school student who had done something wrong and was a little afraid to look at him.
"Why, it's only been a short time, and you don't recognize me anymore?"
Anne shook her head.
"I…I just don't know what to say?"
"Then tell me about this mission. Who arranged for you to go undercover? Did you offend anyone?"
Annie looked up at Luke.
"What did I offend? My superiors said I was a new face..."
Luke looked at her with a half-smile.
"Oh, those are all excuses, because you are a rookie and can be easily fooled."
"Uh……"
Anne didn't know what to say.
She knew Luke was much smarter than she was, and if he said that, there must be a reason.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Luke began to explain to her.
"You are a law enforcer, so you naturally need to know what the consequences will be if a law enforcer is exposed."
Anne looked at Luke suspiciously.
"It's not... it's not that serious, right?"
Luke scoffed.
"Not serious? Once you are exposed, the public will recognize you on the street, they will recognize you when you are enforcing the law, and criminals will recognize you."
"Even your every move is news material in the eyes of the media. As long as your law enforcement is not up to standard, it will be found out under a magnifying glass."
"Don't you think this is serious?"
Anne was shocked into silence by Luke's words.
After thinking about the consequences Luke mentioned, Anne looked at Luke somewhat at a loss.
"Then...then what should I do?"
Luke narrowed his eyes at Annie.
"Aren't you very opinionated? What's wrong now?"
Anne grabbed Luke's arm and begged:
"Luke, please don't be angry with me, okay? I apologize to you...I shouldn't have been so willful..."
Annie was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"I just feel like a useless canary. I don't want to live like that for the rest of my life... I..."
Luke grabbed her hand and his tone became much softer.
"I won't stop you from pursuing your dreams or interfere with your choices, but you can't ignore my feelings."
Annie's brain turned into a mess when facing the gentle Luke.
"I...I..." I muttered for a long time but couldn't say anything.
Luke looked at Annie and questioned her.
"Do you still want to continue working for the FBI? What do you think?"
Annie didn't have any ideas at the moment, she just felt that her brain was not enough.
Body heat...
No matter how careless and unkempt Anne is in her daily life, like a tomboy, she is still a woman after all.
Especially when facing the person you love most in your life.
How could Luke not know Annie's current condition, so he reluctantly helped Annie up.
"Have you really thought about what you want to do in the future? Do what you like and what you are good at, instead of doing something you don't like just for me."
Anne regained some of her sanity at this point, but not much...
After thinking for a while, he said to Luke:
"When I saw you take on those vicious criminals, I felt heroic. I just wanted to be worthy of you."
Luke shook his head.
"Annie, you are you, unique, the only you in the world. You don't need to cater to me, just be yourself."
"My little bear is innocent, lively, sometimes a little silly, but very cute. I don't want her to lose herself and become someone who lives for others."
Anne was silently shedding tears at this moment, looking at Luke infatuatedly.
She immediately put her arms around his neck and kissed him.
After a long time, Luke separated the two.
He is here to do business today, not to take advantage of the contestants.
"We can't talk about business if you're like this. This is important."
Anne thought for a while and said to Luke:
"My mind is a mess right now. Let me think about it, okay? Luke."
Luke nodded.
"You don't have much time left. One day at most. Once the competition starts and the recording begins, you won't have a choice."
Anne nodded.
She turned over and rode on Luke.
"I don't want anything now, I just want you..."
Luke still reluctantly stopped Anne's actions.
"No, this will make you even more confused. Let's talk about it after you make up your mind, okay?"
"No, I want it now..."
Lilith cooperated very well and knocked on the car window.
"Boss, we found a sneaky woman. Judging from her appearance, she seems to be a contestant in this competition and Anne's roommate."
Anne reluctantly got off Luke and swore.
"This bitch..."
Luke smiled and pinched Annie's puffy little face.
"Don't worry, go back and think about it carefully. Call me when you figure it out. Don't worry, I will take care of everything."
Anne straightened her clothes, gave Luke a kiss, and opened the car door.
He looked at Lilith outside the door awkwardly and left in a hurry.
Lilith got in the car and said to Luke:
"Such a strong smell of hormones..."
Luke coughed and said to Lilith:
"Since when do you care about this? Come on, let's go to the airport, Tony's here."
Lilith drove the Rolls-Royce and opened the window.
"Boss, the cold air will help you cool down."
"I understand. Drive well, Lilith."
When they arrived at the airport, just as Luke expected, Stark and Pepper came together.
Luke smiled and hugged the two of them, jokingly saying:
"Pepper, are you worried about Tony and I participating in the Miss America pageant together?"
Pepper smiled and shook her head.
"Tony dragged me here. He said I should be a judge."
Luke looked at the two of them and gave them a thumbs up.
I don't know if it's for Tony or Pepper.
"This is my oversight. As one of the most outstanding women in the United States, it is completely fine for you to be a judge. I agree with Tony's proposal."
Stark gave Luke a stealthy wink.
Beautifully said, buddy~
