Chapter 79 Invitation

Back home, Luke finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This matter has come to an end. It was a bit tiring.

I ran around a lot, but gained a lot.

Although the order points and progress of the skills given by T1000 are not much, with such a liquid metal robot, the technological level of the Qin family will rise sharply.

Its commercial value is far greater than its value as a substitute.

As for whether the Terminator and Skynet will appear again in the future, Luke is not worried.

This is the Marvel Universe, and the time management master Ancient One has not appeared, which means Skynet will not be born and destroy humanity.

Maybe Master Ancient One was behind this and the timeline may have changed.

Finally I can rest for a while.

After thinking about it, I called Stark.

"Hey Tony, I'm on vacation, wanna have a party and relax?"

However, it was Pepper's voice that came from the other end of the phone.

"Luke, go find a girlfriend. Tony is very busy lately..."

Luke, who was force-fed a mouthful of dog food, stared at the hung-up call in a daze...

He scratched his head, then took out his phone and dialed.

"Hey, Luke, what's up?"

"Rhodes, I'm on vacation, wanna hang out together?"

"No, I have a mission recently and I'm not in Los Angeles. Wait until I get back."

"Well, I wish you good luck on your mission..."

Sighing, Luke finally called his father.

That night, the Qin family's children cheered.

Luke wants to take them to his villa in Malibu to stay for a while.

Anyway, he has nothing to do, so he can just play with the kids and leave some private space for mom and dad.

Then he received a text message from the bank.

Dad transferred $100,000 to Luke, and Mom transferred $500,000 to Luke...

Luke accepted it with a smile.

Angela and her sisters are naturally happy because the scenery here is beautiful, no one is watching over them, and there is Wall-E...

Even Natasha, who usually doesn't smile, smiled.

Now she has been officially adopted by Qin's father and mother.

After consulting her, she changed her name to Lisa Qin.

This was the decision she made after talking with Luke.

Luke told her that if she wanted to say goodbye to the past completely, she should separate from it more thoroughly.

Apart from the body and memories, there is no connection with the past.

Now she is just like an ordinary little girl, going to school and going home with Angela and Beth every day.

Although what she learned in school was very different from what she had learned before, she was very smart.

Their academic performance is improving rapidly and next year the three sisters will continue to enter high school together.

The younger sister Jessica is a follower of her older sisters, but with Wall-E, the younger brother Henry is finally liberated.

Luke plays video games at home that his parents usually don’t allow him to play, but he plays them until he doesn’t want to go to bed.

However, although Luke allowed him to play, his daily schedule had to be maintained.

So Henry could only go to bed in a depressed mood.

The next day, Luke sent the little ones to school one after another.

Just as I was about to return to the villa, I received a call from Stark.

"Hi, Tony."

"Luke, Pepper's in New York for a meeting. Aren't you going to have a party? When is it?"

"Wodfake? Aren't you afraid that Pepper will find out and become your ex-girlfriend and then fall into my arms?"

"Uh…Luke, that joke isn't funny at all."

"Okay, I'll arrange it, but it'll have to be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Time is too tight."

"OK, we don't need too many people, just make sure everything else is similar."

"Okay, wait for me to notify you."

"Don't let Pepper know. Don't look for Rhodes. That guy doesn't keep his mouth shut..."

After hanging up the call with Stark, Luke thought about it and decided to throw a small party, but not the kind that Stark had in mind.

After working in the studio for most of the day, after picking up Henry and Jessica, I went to Angela's school to pick up the three little sisters.

After saying hello to his sisters and getting in the car, Luke told them about his plan.

Luke wanted the three sisters to invite their closest classmates to visit their villa in Malibu.

Of course the little sisters agreed wholeheartedly.

But just when they were planning to invite those classmates, Luke's phone rang again.

"Luke."

"Mr. Doherty?"

"You handled the San Francisco situation very well. President Marshall has invited you this time."

Not just San Francisco, obviously, but what Mason gave him.

We are all smart people and we all know that it is not a San Francisco issue, but we keep our mouths shut.

Dougherty on the other end of the phone continued:

"Mr. President is primarily interested in your careful thinking and advice in counter-terrorism operations."

"why me?"

Doherty chuckled.

"You'll know when you get here. You'd better come to Washington tonight. The president will make time to meet with you tomorrow morning."

"Okay, Mr. Doherty."

After hanging up the phone, Luke could only say sorry to the three little sisters.

The sisters who were originally very excited suddenly became listless and depressed.

"Hey, don't be like this, I'll help you organize the party when I come back. Trust me, I'll be back soon."

Just like that, Luke made a big turn and sent his sisters back home.

My parents aren't home. I called them and they're out having fun...

Upon learning that Luke had to go on an urgent business trip, there was nothing I could do but return home after dinner.

Only after getting Luke's promise that he would take the sisters to Malibu for a month after his return did they let Luke leave.

Fortunately, Luke kept Wall-E to accompany his lost sisters, otherwise Luke would have become the enemy of the whole family.

Back in Malibu, Luke called Stark and told him the party was over. Tony said gloomily that they could only make another appointment later.

Finally, after briefly talking to Uncle Chen, I went to the airport and took my own private plane to Washington.

The next morning, Luke arrived at the Dougherty home.

Dougherty was ready.

On the way to the White House, Dougherty explained it to Luke in the car.

"The items removed from the church chairs have been given to President Marshall. Good job, Luke."

Luke just smiled and listened to Dougherty continue.

Verbal praise can't fool Luke, what's important is to give him some benefits.

Dougherty continued:

"This time the president will take you to Germany to attend a meeting on anti-terrorism and may need your professional advice."

“When you come back, your qualifications will be taken to the next level, but promotion may have to wait until the end of the year.”

Luke nodded.

President Marshall's term in office will end early next year.

There is a high probability that Dougherty and the president fulfilled the benefits given to Luke before leaving office.

So Luke asked Doherty.

“Who will be the next FBI director?”

Dougherty gave Luke a mysterious smile and said:

"Paston, the president has submitted the nomination to Congress. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be officially promoted to director by the end of the year."

This choice was a bit unexpected for Luke, but also made sense.

Luke nodded but didn't comment.

What Dougherty said to him has basically been decided and is difficult to change.

And in the current situation, he is just a small soldier and has no say.

Then Dougherty gave Luke another unexpected good news.
