Chapter 1263: Personal Army and “Habitual Offender” John
Luke, a young man who wasn’t even 20 yet, had casually found a young heiress Jenny, and together, they built a phone company worth almost a hundred billion in just a year.
Every time he saw the public praising Miss Jenny, Bobby felt a sense of superiority.
Apart from him, few people in the world knew that Miss Jenny, who was known as the world’s top business genius, was actually just this young man’s middleman!
Bobby was even more aware of how Titanium Phone Company had struck it rich.
In the beginning, Jenny was just a rich heiress with some capability. As the PR manager back then, Bobby accompanied her as they went to inspect the gold mine in Boom Town, Arizona.
When Titanium Phone Company was first established, Bobby also became the assistant manager of HR to specially inspect applicants.
He could sense Miss Jenny’s absolute trust in their boss.
It was also for this reason that Bobby told himself not to piss off his boss.
Jenny controlled a phone company that was worth hundreds of billions, and there was nothing holding her back. Nevertheless, she had never thought of doing anything to harm Luke; this couldn’t be explained by saying that love made women stupid.
Bobby himself was also worth tens of millions now, and had an annual “consultant” fee of ten million from Jenny, so he didn’t dare plot anything.
It wasn’t because of the money that Jenny and Bobby were so obedient.
Now that Luke handed the everyday psychological evaluations over to Bobby, Bobby naturally wouldn’t refuse.
In any case, he just needed to assess the people at Robert’s security company and the defense company regularly. He wasn’t a real psychiatrist, and he didn’t need to come up with heaps of data to prove his conclusions.
Actually, it was similar to his job at the phone company.
As long as he gave Luke the evaluation results, everything else was none of his business.
With Bobby’s current level of Mental Communication, it took him eight hours to complete this personal assignment from the boss.
At most, he would fly out for a day trip once a month.
Luke also valued Bobby, or he wouldn’t have given him shares in Titanium Phone Company and made him a multi-millionaire.
Based on Titanium Phone Company’s current development trend, it was only a matter of time before Bobby’s shares reached a hundred million.
Luke usually didn’t care what this guy did, as long as he didn’t go out and brag about his superpower.
In any case, this guy had Mental Communication, and it would be hard for anyone with bad intentions to approach him.
It was also because of his existence that Titanium Phone Company had been able to silently avoid numerous overt and covert plots. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for the company to remain safe for more than a year.
That was why Jenny had offered Bobby an annual “consultant” fee; it had nothing to do with Luke.
However, Luke had always been very careful. He only let this “business hack” appear in controllable locations, to prevent Bobby from being detected by sensors for superpowers.
As Luke had expected, SHIELD had long caught onto Bobby’s tail.
After everything was settled, he relaxed in Shackelford.
As long as Robert developed quietly in Shackelford for a few years, he would be able to deploy a personal army no worse than what a billionaire could afford.
Now, ordinary rich people could no longer contend with Luke in terms of money.
Instead, the most troublesome ones were those who openly mobilized hostile forces.
There were plenty of forces who liked to abuse their power, like Hydra, the Hand, the twelve members of the High Table and Kingpin.
With the security company and the defense company under Robert’s command, most dangers could be avoided.
He could leave the bigger and more troublesome people to Luke.
…
At noon on Thursday, Luke and Selina returned to New York.
They got into their car in the parking lot and went straight to the police department.
Looking at the gloomy weather, Selina rejoiced. “It’s a good thing I caught enough sun in Shackelford, or it would feel like I’m growing mold.”
Luke asked, “Then, do you want a sunbathing machine?”
Selina quickly shook her head. “No. There’s no soul in sunbathing without the sun.”
Luke shrugged and didn’t say anything else.
That was Selina’s temperament. She usually complained a lot, but she only said it casually and never dwelled on it, nor would she pester Luke.
That was the biggest reason why she and Luke got along so well.
Of course, except when it came to food.
She would hold him to any promises he made in relation to food.
Luke and Selina returned to the police department from the airport. It had been a long time since they went to a roast barbecue restaurant, so they got a lot of takeaway.
Luke had nothing to do in Shackelford, and just watched over the freshest produce on the ranch.
Since he had been away for a long time, he cooked for the whole family every day.
Now that he was back, he decisively slacked off.
A beautiful life was a balance of work and play.
Selina and Gold Nugget had been eating too much too good food recently; they could do with a change of pace.
At the police department, they split up.
Luke went to Dustin, and Selina brought food to Elsa and Elizabeth.
It was slightly past twelve, which was lunchtime.
Dustin usually finished work around 12:15, as was his habit.
Luke arrived just in time to see an annoyed-looking John McClane come out of his office.
Luke greeted him with a smile. “The boss lectured you again?”
“Just so.” John snorted but didn’t say anything bad about Dustin.
He had been convinced by Dustin’s performance in the last few months.
Dustin was capable and responsible, and followed the rules. He wasn’t a disgusting boss who took all the credit and threw the blame on his subordinates if something happened.
It was purely John’s own fault that he got a dressing down.
In the face of Luke’s questioning gaze, he didn’t hide anything. “Internal Affairs came looking for trouble with me again, and the boss sent them packing. So, I couldn’t escape this scolding.”
Luke chuckled. “Since it’s over, why are you still down?”
Once Dustin was done with his lecture, the matter was closed; that was how he worked. However, John was still acting like he had the worst luck
John was a little embarrassed. “This is the second time Internal Affairs has come after me this month. The boss can’t take it anymore, and wants me to take a week off and go for some counseling.”
Luke was a little astonished when he heard this. It wasn’t even halfway through May, and Internal Affairs had already looked for John twice. No wonder Dustin couldn’t take it anymore.
John was a famous “habitual offender” in NYPD.
Internal Affairs was already used to this. If it wasn’t a serious problem, they wouldn’t come knocking, only to be rebuffed.
Furthermore, John had been told to go for counseling.
