Chapter 1585 Confrontation Between Little Sister and Friend
The dress rehearsal for Claire’s performance would take several days, which was what the organizers wanted.
Titanium Phone Company intended to use Claire’s new song in ads for its new product, so even if the charity concert stretched over a week, her management company wouldn’t reject it.
After resting at home for one night, the little monkey volunteered to stay in a small house across the river in New Jersey so as not to disturb Luke and Selina.
Luke agreed readily. He also told her that everybody would be busy for the next two days, and that they would find a time later to catch up over dinner.
Claire cheerfully left for a small bungalow several hundred meters away. On the afternoon of the third day, Claire brought Stacy back to the bungalow after the dress rehearsal.
While the two girls were getting ingredients and daily necessities from the backseat of the car, Luke unhurriedly stopped his car next to them.
Looking at Claire, who had turned her head to stare at him with wide, surprised eyes, Luke simply smiled. “I had nothing to do in the afternoon, so I came to take a look. Are you free tonight? There’s a feast waiting for you.”
Claire stiffened. On the other side, Stacy hesitated for a moment before she slowly straightened.
Luke looked at her with the same kind smile. “Oh, you have a friend?”
Claire’s mind whirled, and she suddenly cursed inwardly. She was an idiot. Why was she afraid of Luke? Wasn’t she going to tell him to begin with?!
She smiled brightly. “Ah, Luke, you’re here. This is my friend, Carly Green. Hm, this is my brother, Luke Coulson.”
Luke and Stacy’s eyes met, and she subconsciously looked away even though her face had changed, and the detective wouldn’t recognize her.
Back then, she and the twins had been stupid, and had run off to earn a 100-million-dollar reward.
In the end, Stephanie had been beaten until she retched on her knees, and Artemis had been tasered by this young detective.
Stacy, who had turned into the SWAT team member Sanchez at the time, had watched the whole thing. Luke’s actions had left a deep impression on her.
Thanks to her safety training, she was able to give a polite but distant smile. “Hello, Mr. Coulson.”
Luke got out and raised an eyebrow. “No need to be polite. Just call me Luke.”
They all smiled and exchanged greetings.
At that moment, a car stopped on the road next to them, and a small head stuck out of the open window of the backseat. “Luke, good afternoon. Is Gold Nugget here?”
Amused, Luke waved his hand. “Oh, Mindy. Gold Nugget’s taking a nap at home.”
Mindy sighed regretfully, then looked at Claire and Stacy. “Huh, these two… Don’t tell me you’re… ehehe”
If life was a comic, there would definitely be a lot of black lines on Luke’s face at that moment. “This is Claire, my sister. That’s her friend, Carly.”
Mindy’s interest was piqued when she heard that. She opened the back door and jumped out. She ran to Claire and stretched out her hand with an expression like she was looking at a rare animal. “Let me introduce myself. Mindy McCreedy, Luke’s friend.”
Curious, Claire shook her hand. “Claire Vincent, Luke’s sister.”
As they shook hands, their eyes met, and a mysterious feeling welled up in their hearts… As if.
Mindy exerted more strength when they shook hands, just enough for an ordinary person to feel the pressure.
An ordinary person would at most be surprised by this sort of test, or before they could feel surprised, Mindy would stop.
But Claire wasn’t an ordinary person.
In the face of Mindy’s sudden increase in strength, she subconsciously increased her own strength.
Claire had had professional training, and had the cheat that was Gold Nugget.
Mindy, on the other hand, had undergone professional combat training and was much more experienced. She increased her strength at almost the same time.
Muscles and veins popped on their fair hands.
Luke rolled his eyes and coughed. “Mindy…”
Mindy quickly pulled her hand out of Claire’s grasp and smiled brightly at Luke. “Haha, as expected of your sister. She really isn’t simple.”
She turned around and met Claire’s eyes again.
This guy seems very strong! the two girls murmured at the same time.
Luke turned around and looked at the car parked on the side of the road. The two girls in the front got out and greeted him.
He smiled. “Oh, Nikki, Monica. Are you here for training?”
Monica smiled and nodded, but didn’t say anything. She gave her best friend the chance to speak.
Nikki tucked her long blond hair behind her ear. “That’s right. You’ve been too busy recently. We asked Mindy to take us with her for training.”
On the other side, Claire had just let go of this “formidable opponent.” Thanks to Gold Nugget no. 2, she had sharp ears and eyes.
Hearing that, she looked down at the little girl. “Huh? Mindy, Luke trains with all of you?”
Mindy chuckled and rolled her eyes. “No, he’s our ‘exclusive,’ ‘personal’ trainer.”
She stressed the words “exclusive” and “personal” slightly. Claire narrowed her eyes at the little girl in front of her and bent down slightly with a smile. “Is that so? Then what does he teach
you?”
“Women’s self-defense!” Mindy ignored the pressure of Claire’s superior height and said casually, “Why don’t you come and play too?”
Several thoughts flashed through Claire’s mind, and she nodded less than two seconds later. “Okay, just nice that I’m free. Hm, can my friend Carly come with me?”
Mindy patted her chest. “No problem. We have our own training site. Ten more people won’t be a problem.”
Luke slapped his forehead. The little monkey was too gullible. She really wasn’t a sneaky Mindy’s match.

But he didn’t know what Claire was thinking at that moment.
If she took Carly straight to Luke’s place, Luke might notice what was going on.
With these three beautiful “students” to distract Luke now, Carly would have enough time to adjust her mood.
At the same time, Claire would also see what on earth Luke got up to with these three beauties. It was killing two birds with one stone! Claire secretly praised herself for her resourcefulness.
Gold Nugget No. 2 secretly sighed. Hehe! Girl, he’s already seen through you. The fiend already had me reveal your cards at the beginning. What’s the point of trying now?
Since things had come to this point, Luke couldn’t be bothered worrying about it. Whether it was Claire and Carly, or Mindy and the other two, they were all family or friends to
him.
Anyone would find out if they did a check.
There was no need for him to stop them from getting to know each other.
Besides, Claire and Mindy were shooting daggers at each other every now and then. Clearly, they were curious about each other. They were both the curious, energetic and active type.
It would be unrealistic to try and stop them from sounding each other out.
The six of them set off for Mindy’s new training site two kilometers away.
