Chapter 1588 The Nature of Things, and on the Same Wavelength

Girls could suffer, but they couldnt become ugly.

No matter how tough they were, they still had to be pretty. That showed how important looks were.

Selina, on the other hand, had long listened in on the fight via Gold Nugget no. 1.

Now, as she sat on the couch and looked at the two little girls whose gazes collided every now and then, she couldnt help but turn her head and press it into her elbow as she shook and laughed. These two silly kids had no idea how cruel the adult world was!

Until now, they still didnt understand that the blow they had suffered today was definitely deliberate.

Otherwise, Luke wouldnt have allowed them to fight like this.

He could have easily stopped them with a few words, and they wouldnt have had the chance to fight each other.

Staring at Selina suspiciously, Claire couldnt help but draw closer. Selina, what are you doing?

Selina raised her head, the smile still on her face. Its nothing. I just thought of a funny soap opera.

Claire asked, Really? Which one?

She felt that Selinas smile was related to her, but she had never acted in a soap opera before.

Selina said, Gossip Girl. Claire frowned. That doesnt seem like a comedy show, right?

It was just a drama about scheming little b*tches plotting against each other. How twisted could you be to smile while watching it?

It was just like how some people could eat three portions of steak still oozing blood. It was completely abnormal.

Selina patted her head with a smile. Your brother treats you really well. You have to thank G.o.d.

She couldnt help but chuckle.

Puzzled, Claire left.

She was still a little in awe of Selina.

This was the devil teacher who could press her to the ground and kick her b.u.t.t. Even though Claire had the mysterious old man, it didnt change the outcome.

So, if Selina wouldnt say anything, there was nothing Claire could do. She returned to the group and chatted with them.

Claire and Mindy might have had a huge fight, but it conversely made them a lot closer.

This was subconscious behavior.

All five girls had extraordinary combat ability.

Although they werent out of place when they interacted with ordinary people, there were a lot of things that couldnt be said out loud.

For example, Mindy and Claire couldnt talk casually outside about dealing with hooligans.

But peace was always fleeting.

After just a few words, they glared at each other again.

Because compared with Claires beating someone up and calling the police, Mindys breaking both legs and throwing them into a dumpster was too violent.

Claire said, That might cause trouble later. Thats not a proper way to handle things.

Mindy snorted. My father is rich, and Im a minor.

The girls were speechless. What an awesome reason.

Claire was unhappy. That doesnt give you the right to do whatever you want. The judge can still send you to juvie. Why would you bet on that chance?

Mindy stared at her like she was an idiot.

Claire squirmed uncomfortably. What? Did I say something wrong? Mindy crossed her arms and glanced at her. My father is rich, and Im a minor. So, if I insist that they wanted to a.s.sault me, do you think the judge would send them to jail or come after me?

The girls were lost for words. So, having money and being a minor wasnt for protecting herself, but for s.c.r.e.w.i.n.g other people over?

For a moment, the shortest person in the room seemed to exude a strong sense of tyranny.

This was someone with money and a black heart. Dont provoke her!

Even though Mindy had to tilt her head to look at Claire, it didnt affect her aura. Besides, if Batman can fight, why cant I?

Claire tried one last time. But youre not Batman.

Mindy curled her lip and didnt say anything else, but she gloated inwardly. How can I tell you that Batman is my teammate?

Listening to them, Selina couldnt help but slip into the kitchen to repeat the conversation to Luke.

Then, she asked, Doesnt it feel like Mindys thinking is a little crooked?

A small knife spun in Lukes hand as he handled the ingredients casually. Instantly, a few carrots were turned into cubes. Thats a reasonable use of her own resources and rules. It should be encouraged. Selina: Huh?

It depends on the nature of things. Luke picked up a celery stalk, and the knife flew again. It depends on how the situation develops. The hooligans indeed wont go easy on her as a minor to begin with, so theres nothing wrong with her launching a counterattack. Secondly, her father is rich. Whats wrong with spending money to put hooligans in jail?

Selina chuckled. Youre really good at finding a balance. Arent you afraid that shell be traumatized?

Putting the chopped parsley aside, Luke picked up an onion, and the knife flashed again. Mindy looked for her dad to clean up the mess. Claire has us. In essence, theres not much difference between their choices. Even if Claire hadnt done anything back then, hooligans like that would still get their three limbs broken in the end.

Selina was silent for a moment before she nodded. Sure enough, rich people do things simply.

Luke nodded and said, So, you need to learn how to use money to deal with some of the trifles.

Selina looked at him strangely. Didnt I give you full authority to handle all of that?.

Luke paused, turned around, and stared at her for a moment before he slowly nodded. Youre 30% as good as I am. Keep working hard.

Hehe, really? Selina was delighted. It feels great to pa.s.s the buck.

Luke chuckled.

In any case, he could always delegate things to someone else with one phone call.

There were always a lot of employees in this world who wanted to make money.

They had a BBQ on the roof, and the girls ate to their hearts content.

However, given that Monica and Claire had to drive and couldnt drink, Luke refused to give everyone beer. That was the only downside.

Claire tried sneaking Lukes beer out of his hand, but failed.

This gathering was much more relaxing than other activities the girls had partic.i.p.ated in.

Even Stacy was infected by everyones mood and didnt look as wary as ever. Claire and Mindy still snarked at each other every now and then, but everybody could tell that they werent enemies, but were actually on the same wavelength.

Both of them were straightforward.

Mindy was a little obnoxious, but not to the point of being repulsive; she was just a little eccentric at most.

Mindy left Claire dumbstruck again and again, but with Gold Nugget no. 2 offering a different perspective, Claire figured a lot of things out.

The party ended at half past eight, and Nikki and Monica drove home.

Mindy, on the other hand, got into Claires car.

Claires house was only a few hundred meters away from Mindys, and it was on the way.

After the two cars left, Luke shook his head with a smile. Ill let you two off for a few days.
