Chapter 1703: Coffee Master and Small Gift

Luke ignored her.

In life, if you werent amusing yourself, you were amusing others.

While he was entertaining himself now, he could also entertain Selina; killing two birds with one stone wasnt a bad thing.

Taking her out every day to beat up and destroy people could easily cause psychological issues, which was why they were on this trip around the world.

So, Luke made the coffee in earnest.

Fine, he actually only memorized the steps.

As a man who liked to use ready-made coffee powder instead of freshly ground coffee, extracting the espresso taste was a complete mystery to him.

Secretary Jenny wasnt lying when she said that her maid was far better at making coffee than he was.

That aside, Lukes movements were absolutely elegant, precise, and efficient.

When Marcos, Lorna and Carol returned less than two minutes later, Master Luke had three cups of steaming hot coffee ready.

/

This fake coffee master didnt need to care about other peoples taste. He simply made the sweetest and milkiest coffee he could take.

As for the latte art, he would never let anyone else do it in this lifetime.

Both Lorna and Carol were very quiet when they saw Mr. Wilson making coffee at the bar.

The difference was that Carol quickly calmed down, while Lorna s.h.i.+fted nervously every now and then.

Luke put the two cups of coffee on the counter and gestured for them to help themselves. Then, he took his coffee to the al fresco seats outside. Both of you, come here.

Carol immediately followed him with the coffee. Lorna was nervous, but could only do as she was told.

It was clear that Marcos was being excluded from the conversation, and the three cups of coffee implied the same thing:

This has nothing to do with you, get lost.

Thus, Marcos could only observe the three people sitting ten meters away from the door.

Lornas voice got louder every now and then, and her face was the most expressive.

Carols back was to Marcos. He couldnt see her expression, and she didnt seem to be saying anything.

Luke was facing the door, but his voice and movements were normal, and he didnt have much of an expression on his face.

The conversation ended less than 20 minutes later.

Marcos was still observing in secret, when Luke waved at him.

He walked over without hesitation.

Although he felt a little guilty, for Lornas sake, he couldnt be a coward whatever the case, this person wasnt her father! Hm, even if her father were here, he couldnt be a coward.

When Marco reached Lorna, Luke said directly, Tell me everything about you and Ferdinand. Dont leave anything out.

Marcoss heart skipped a beat, and he couldnt help but glance at Lorna.

Lorna gritted her teeth. Why are you looking at me?

Marcos took a deep breath and explained quickly.

The situation wasnt complicated.

Marcos had worked for a Mexican gang over a year ago to earn money for his seriously ill mothers medical fees, and had come to Santiago before with the gang leader.

Of course, selling the goods had nothing to do with him.

He had only come as an errand boy and lackey. If anything happened, he would be abandoned as a distraction for the police or the gangs rivals.

The gang leader definitely didnt tell him anything valuable.

To put it simply, it was for the money.

But his mother couldnt be saved. She pa.s.sed away a year ago.

After losing his mother, Marcos had no reason to continue working for that gang.

Once you joined a Mexican gang, however, you couldnt quit unless the gang collapsed.

At that time, several cartel bigshots had died in Mexico, and the situation was very chaotic.

So, he simply came to Chile to avoid the gang and the chaos in Mexico.

That should have been the end of it.

Marcos used to be a car mechanic, and had worked diligently as one before he grew desperate for money for his mothers treatment.

When he came to Santiago on his own, he would at most switch jobs and location. Naturally, he didnt want to join a gang.

Unfortunately, he was recognized by Ferdinands men.

Back then, the Mexican gang that Marcos worked for hadnt dealt with Ferdinand, but with a compet.i.tor.

The situation in Mexico had been chaotic for the past two years, and sales had dropped significantly.

Many gang leaders lived in seclusion and didnt do large amounts of business.

Ferdinands compet.i.tors were making even more money because of a shortage in the market. Naturally, he was anxious.

When he heard his subordinates report that they had found a Mexican who had once been a supplier for a compet.i.tor, Ferdinand had Torres come over to discuss a cooperation.

After his mothers death, a downhearted Marcos had run into Lorna here.

He was very satisfied with his current life, and naturally didnt want to ruin it.

To avoid trouble, he couldnt put Ferdinands men in contact with the Mexican gang wouldnt that just be advertising that he had escaped to Chile?

If the gang found out, it might demand that Ferdinand kill this traitor.

Human lives were worthless to the gang; to them, a traitor was someone who had their own mind.

Even after Marcos avoided him a few times, Torres refused to give up.

Three months ago, Marcos had to quit his job and hide at home.

He had only come out recently after thinking the storm had pa.s.sed, yet Torres discovered his whereabouts once more.

Luke was expressionless, but he paid attention to Marcoss mental fluctuations and confirmed that he wasnt lying.

At most, he didnt tell all of what he had experienced in Mexico.

But the light red evil a.s.sessment in the system was enough to prove that he hadnt committed any major crimes, and instead had made a lot of small mistakes.

Considering the situation in Mexico, it could only be said that Marcos was an ordinary person who wasnt very cautious, and didnt deserve to go missing or be crippled.

After confirming the situation, Luke waved his hand. You can go back now.

Marcos: Huh?

Luke said, Back to the door or down the hill, up to you.

Marcos shut up and silently stood near the entrance of the cafe.

Luke didnt care what he thought, or even what Lorna thought.

Lorna was just a potential investment who was about to have a baby. There was no need to complicate things.

Putting his hand in his pants pocket, Luke took out a printed note and a key from his inventory.

He put them on the table and pushed them to Lorna. If you want to be with him, thats up to you. This is a key and pa.s.sword to a private safe in the city. Theres some cash in it. Consider it a final gift.

Lorna frowned. I dont want it.

Luke said indifferently, Its not scary to be poor; the scariest thing is not knowing yourself.

Lornas expression was a little ugly, but she didnt dare argue with him.

Luke said, You dont even know that youre pregnant, which is why you dare refuse this money. I see that you really cant live on your own. Do you plan to rob a bank with a big belly later?

Lorna was stunned. What? Pregnant?
