2149 Party Experience 2

Looking at the smiling man in front of her, Lindsay had mixed feelings.

Her mother, Aurora, had wanted to matchmake her and Luke, who had still been a minor detective. Unfortunately, she and her parents had been quarreling at the time over the misunderstanding that was her ‘artist boyfriend.’

Coupled with the fact that she had still been young at the time, she wasn’t in the mood to think about a relationship.

After so many years, she already had a fiancé, but they had no feelings for each other at all. It was purely a political marriage.

For people in the political circles, it wasn’t purity that mattered, but how low a person’s bottom line was.

Mass killings were typical, but the truly heinous individuals were those who violated basic ethics — for example, the politicians killed by the Joker. Directly killing them was already a ‘light sentence.’

Originally, this wasn’t a big deal. In any case, Lindsay had long decided to focus on politics.

Personal relationships were just an indispensable part of her persona. It was enough for the public to say, “Not bad.”

But seeing the picture Luke and Elena made as they stood together made her envious.

It had been almost ten years, but the two of them were still as close as when they visited Monroe Peterson’s exhibition at the beginning.

As a politician, Lindsay could tell that this wasn’t a pretense.

There was an unspoken tacit understanding between Luke and Elena.

This wasn’t a man who looked refined on the surface but was impatiently thinking about which woman to hook up with later.

This wasn’t a woman who was smiling despite eyes filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

She even felt that these two had come for Long Island’s evening seaside landscape, and had just agreed to her invitation in passing.

Of course, Lindsay wasn’t unhappy.

With this sort of gathering, once the other party showed up and said hello, it didn’t matter if they stayed or left after that.

Otherwise, she would have to keep the dozens of people she had invited tonight company the entire time, and it would become something like a company meeting.

What made Lindsay even more envious was that Luke and Elena seemed more mature than when they first met, but they still looked young and full of energy.

Although Lindsay had always worked out and took care of herself, her appearance and figure were still slowly deteriorating after working overtime, staying up late, and using excessive makeup.

But this was a fleeting thought.

Power always came with a price.

If she were willing to be a good helper to her husband the way her mother was, she would naturally have more time on her hands.

But that was equivalent to being bound to her husband and losing most of her right to speak. That was unacceptable for someone as proud as Lindsay.

So, she felt envy but nothing more than that.

After Luke and Lindsay exchanged casual greetings, Margaret pulled Elena over and then hugged Luke happily.

Lindsay was a social expert, and had a good grasp of the boundaries of a half-hug that was slightly intimate but didn’t involve too much contact.

This cheap sister-in-law, on the other hand, was very relaxed around Luke, and wrapped him in a full hug.

He could feel her body heat and her soft and elastic skin through her thin summer outfit.

As the only family the female doctor cared about, Margaret had even secretly added “Haley” to her name when she went to college.

When Margaret was targeted by the gang, Haley took a huge risk to rescue her, and the cousins were almost turned into honeycombs.

From this, it could be seen that although they were actually cousins, they were even closer than biological sisters.

Although Haley was reluctant, she still gave Margaret some of the Life 1 which she got from Luke.

Otherwise, Margaret, who was the same age as Elena at almost 40 years old, wouldn’t still be so bouncy.

Of course Margaret was happy. Luke was her only male friend in so many years.

In comparison, she had had a few boyfriends over the years, but none of them lasted.

That wasn’t a big deal. After all, artists had far more ‘unconventional’ relationships.

For example, Luke had never seen Elena’s ‘roommate’ at Paland Academy — she was either in a boyfriend’s bed, or on the way there.

This ‘sister-in-law’ of Luke’s was almost 40 years old, and had only been married once.

Forget how many boyfriends she had over the years; at most, they ate, hugged and kissed, and then… nothing.

Something would always happen to expose the true motives of these men – they were either greedy for her body or her money, or both.

In short, Luke’s sister-in-law’s relationship history was purer than that of most young people.

Haley had personally verified that Luke could be her sister’s friend.

That was because he was one of the few men who didn’t have any ideas about Margaret. Even when he had the opportunity, he was as steady as an old man.

Luke had nothing to say.

He couldn’t tell the female doctor: Actually, I already have you. I definitely won’t make a move on your sister.

She definitely wouldn’t be able to accept this truth, so the Joker would have to continue keeping his secrets.

After bringing a lost Margaret over, Lindsay didn’t stay any longer. She apologized and then got busy.

Under the jealous gazes of passersby, Luke wandered the beach with two beautiful artists on his left and right.

On the other hand, twice as many beauties naturally meant twice as many worries; the competitive comparisons weren’t a joke.

One was tall and the other was short; one had blonde hair and the other had black hair. One was tall and slim, and the other was petite and curvy. One was lively and passionate, and the other was gentle and self-aware, and both could attract practically most men.

For the men at this party who claimed to be celebrities but were actually animals in human skin, the two women were targets that couldn’t be ignored.

In any case, they would just give it a try. Who knew, they might succeed!

At first, the two girls could still laugh as they watched Luke take potshots at the men, but after a few minutes, they couldn’t take it anymore and firmly pulled him away.

The three of them didn’t drive straight home. It was rare for Margaret to come out with Luke and Elena, and she was reluctant to go back.

Also, compared with the cold and damp of autumn and winter, New York summers were just nice for having fun.

So, Luke took the two girls for a stroll along the beach.

The private beaches of rich families were all fancy.

There was very little litter here; most of the sand was a clean expanse blocked off with nets.

Margaret was too excited. She ran onto the beach in her high heels and faceplanted in the sand.

But she didn’t cry or feel terrible after falling. She simply lay on the ground for a moment before she started chuckling.

Luke rolled his eyes. This naive girl was indeed hopeless!
