Chapter 353 Poaching

The sound stopped shortly after Jonathan Wake woke up.

After a while, Luke came downstairs and brought Jonathan some food.

"Who made the bulletproof vest for you? The quality is so poor."

Jonathan took the food from Luke and began to eat it voraciously.

"This is pretty good, the best so far."

Luke raised an eyebrow.

"You think this is good? Next time, go to our brand for customization."

Jonathan thought about it and asked Luke what brand it was.

When Luke told him, his face was filled with helplessness.

“Your things are too expensive…”

However, the two of them opened the topic and started chatting.

Luke didn't ask Jonathan what he was doing there, and Jonathan didn't ask Luke what he was doing there.

The next day, Luke left some supplies and medicine for Jonathan and went home with Joanna.

No matter what, since he slept with someone else's daughter, it was polite of his cheap father-in-law not to point a gun at him.

When old Antonio saw Luke, his eyes narrowed with smile.

The two sides had a cordial and friendly conversation and exchanged views... (each talking about his own things, but not getting to the point)

Old Antonio also had a headache... the old fox left and a little fox came.

However, old Antonio was still very enthusiastic about Luke's arrival.

He left the next day, taking Santino with him.

The castle was left to the two young people.

Luke also got back the camera and other photographic equipment and documents that were taken away by Santino.

You know what, old Antonio also checked Luke's ID.

But all I found out was that he was a photojournalist working for a magazine in London.

Although the magazine is very famous, Luke is only a part-time contributor.

To put it bluntly, he's just a temporary worker.

No other past events could be found.

The more we can’t find out, the more complicated Luke’s identity is.

Old Antonio did not continue his investigation.

With my own daughter around, she will find out sooner or later.

In response to his stupid son's question, old Antonio patiently explained it to him.

Let Santino know what position his family holds in Italy, Europe and the world.

To put it bluntly, he's just a local tyrant with a nicer name.

In Rome, the Antonio family also developed in a low-key manner.

There is no way, Rome's power is also very complicated...

It's good enough for the Antonio family to have a place in such a place.

But compared to the global chain of the Luciano family...

That's really overestimating yourself.

How can Antonio compare with the Luciano family, which has a global chain?

But this time, I have a chance to meet a great person, so I have to grab him quickly. Maybe I can make some progress with him...

But he thought too much.

It's not that he wants to poach Luke, but that Luke wants to poach Joanna.

When the two of them were resting after playing in the evening, Joanna told Luke about the actual situation of her family.

It looks very shiny on the outside, but it can't withstand the wind and waves.

Although the Antonio family has now boarded a big ship, it is not the core.

To put it bluntly, it's a franchisee.

If the job is not done well, they can still replace you.

Luke frowned when he heard that it was an industry that operated a one-stop assassin intelligence service.

"That won't work. This industry is a huge pitfall. If you run into a ruthless person, I guarantee your whole family will suffer..."

Although Luke's words were impolite, Joanna was not angry.

Sighing, Joanna said helplessly:

"I can't help it. I was born into such a family..."

Luke smiled and gave her a comforting kiss.

"I'm here, dear. If you leave the family, I'll help you run a legitimate business."

Joanna was naturally happy, but she also had concerns.

"But...my father..."

Luke curled his lips in disdain, showing his domineering side in front of Joanna for the first time.

"His opinion is not important. No one can touch the people I protect, not even God..."

"My dear, you are... so nice... No, I need to learn from you, right now..."

But there is no rush for this matter, as Luciano still has a profound influence in Italy.

The influence here is multifaceted, including politics, economy, and the underworld.

I have to talk to my cousin Richie about Joanna's matter.

I believe Cousin Richie would not object.

He doesn't have to spend any money, and he gets an ally. It's a win-win situation.

All that was needed was for him to support Joanna on behalf of the Luciano family, at least when Luke was not in Italy.

After teaching Joanna a few good lessons, she finally felt that she was being "played to pieces".

So Luke said goodbye to Joanna, packed his bags, and drove his "junk car" to Sicily.

I met my oldest cousin Richie, and also met Luke's great uncle, who was living with my grandmother in Sicily.

In the past few years, the old man has been eating the "nutritional supplements" sent by his grandmother, which are the diluted ones that Luke feeds to his family.

The old man was very enthusiastic when he saw Luke. He was still quite strong even though he was over 90 years old.

And took Luke hunting...

Talked about a lot of things in the past.

When people get old, they like to be nostalgic.

Luke took out his medical license (a universal certificate given by Mephisto), and while examining the old man, he gave him a small dose of "Save Your Life 250".

There is also my great cousin who is almost 70 years old and many other members of the Luciano family.

Everyone was enthusiastic about Luke's arrival, including the girls from the Luciano family.

But deep down, Luke still viewed them as his relatives and had no intention of having in-depth communication with them.

The Italian quota is taken, maybe I can try changing my nationality...

I stayed in Sicily for a month and experienced all the attractions and food in Sicily.

Although Sicily is a very xenophobic place, the Luciano family, the owners here, are not considered outsiders.

Wherever you go, you will meet warm and hospitable locals.

Luke also took a lot of photos.

Uncle Richie and his father, the current patriarch, had no objection to Joanna's matter.

Also promised to support Joanna.

Then Luke returned to Rome with their promise.

The first person I met here was not Joanna, nor the business team sent by the Qin family, but Jonathan.

Luke was surprised to see him.

"You haven't left yet?"

Jonathan smiled and shrugged.

"I've been waiting for you since I finished my work. Mainly I wanted to say thank you. I owe you a favor."

Although he said it easily, Luke had already smelled the blood on him.

It seems that after he recovered from his injury, he went back to look for trouble.

Looks like we won this time...

Luke also smiled and pretended not to know that he was injured, and patted his shoulder.

Looking at Jonathan who was enduring the pain, Luke decided to... buy him a drink.

Fortunately, the two of them drank beer, and not much.

Finally Luke gave Jonathan a phone number.

"You can call to check for any information you want to know. This is my personal database. It may be helpful to you in the future."

Jonathan looked at Luke in surprise.

"Why do you want to help me?"

Luke said to him seriously:

"Besides China, you can do whatever you want in a foreign country. I have no right to interfere. But... please don't involve innocent people in the United States. You know my identity."

After a moment of silence, Jonathan nodded solemnly to Luke.

It seems that Luke already knows his job, but with a mutual friend in Frank Castle, the two have a pretty good relationship.

So after thinking it over, Jonathan decided to agree to Luke's request and leave himself a way out.

"I promise, don't worry."
