Chapter 232 Young Lady’s Visit
Luke was stunned when he saw Selina. “What’s the meaning of this?”
Selina, who was wearing a bikini under a thick bathrobe, was confused. “What are you talking about?”
Luke was lost for words. “Didn’t I tell you to clean up for dinner?”
Selina said, “I’m very clean right now. I spent the whole afternoon in the bathtub.”
Luke asked, “Aren’t you worried that your skin will get wrinkly from all that water?”
Selina chuckled. “I was in the water for a bit and then in the sun for a bit after that, alright?”
Luke said, “Sure, whatever. Let’s just dig in.” He was too lazy to care about Selina eating in a bathrobe.
They were eating when the doorbell rang.
They looked at each other, finding it odd.
They had some friends at the police department, but since they were busy, they had never entertained any of them at home.
Also, they had often been out for work since arriving in Los Angeles. Nobody except Dustin and Elsa in the Major Crimes Division knew their address.
They didn’t have other friends in the area. So, who could possibly be visiting them?
Taking a sniff, Luke found it strange, and opened the door himself.
A tall and slender girl was standing outside. When the door opened, she greeted him in delight. “Luke.”
Luke said with a smile, “Oh, Miss Gwenis. How did you find my place?”
The girl outside was none other than Jenny, who lowered her head when she heard Luke’s question. “I’m sorry, but I lied to Sergeant Elsa and said that I forgot to tell you something in the morning, so she gave me your address.”
Luke thought for a moment, and realized what Elsa was thinking.
Jenny was a girl from a rich family, but her family background wasn’t too complicated.
Actually, he should thank Elsa.
After a moment, Luke said, “Oh, please come in.”
Jenny entered the house eagerly, and Luke took her to the living room.
While she was looking around, she heard a female voice. “Darling, who is it?”
Stunned, Jenny turned her head, only to see a beautiful chick in a bathrobe chewing on a greasy roasted goose leg.
As they looked at each other, the girl in the bathrobe tore off a huge chunk of meat from the goose leg.
Dumbfounded, Jenny looked at Luke. “Are you...”
Luke said casually, “We’re roommates and partners.”
Jenny was lost for words. She wondered if that was true, but it wasn’t unusual for partners to be roommates.
Luke, however, didn’t give her time to think. “Have you had dinner? If not, you can have some of this.”
Now that Luke mentioned it, Jenny felt her stomach crying out for meat!
She hadn’t eaten much during the long day. Seeing how gluttonous Selina was, she suddenly became hungry.
Somehow, she nodded her head and said, “Ah, okay. Thank you.”
Luke pointed in one direction and said, “You can wash your hands there. Do you want to take off your coat?”
Jenny subconsciously took off her coat, but Selina, who was enjoying the drama, suddenly whistled.
Jenny abruptly came back to her senses and put her coat back on.
Luke found it odd. “Why are you out wearing this?”
Just now, he saw very clearly that this girl was only wearing a thin nightie under her thick coat.
It wasn’t the same one that she had been wearing in the morning, but it was just as charming
Jenny lowered her head. “...I had a fight with my dad.”
Naturally, Luke knew better than to ask further. “Should I bring you some clothes?”
“Thank you.” Jenny nodded.
Luke said, “Go wash your hands first. I’ll fetch you some clothes.”
Jenny obediently went to the bathroom.
Luke gestured at Selina, a question in his eyes, but Selina quickly shook her head.
Luke shrugged and simply went to his room, where he found a thick T-shirt.
When Luke returned, Jenny was wiping her hands. She subconsciously stood straight again.
Luke gave the T-shirt to her with a smile. “You can wear this for now. It’s clean. I hope you don’t mind.”
Jenny said quickly, “Not at all.”
Luke pointed at the bathroom and said, “You can put it on inside. There are laundry baskets in there; you can put your clothes in one of them.”
Jenny nodded again.
“Let’s have dinner after you change, okay?” said Luke.
After Jenny nodded again, he went to the dining room.
In the dining room, Luke glared at Selina, who was grimacing. “It’s just clothes. Why are you unwilling to lend her any?”.
Selina snorted. “Of course I am. Also, I’m telling you that you can’t let her stay here tonight.”
Luke was lost for words. “Do you really think I’m so horny?”
Selina said, “If this was a few days ago, I would say no, but after all the fun you had recently, I’m afraid that you’re already used to it.”
Luke said, “Didn’t you have a hand in my fun too?”
Selina said, “That was in a hotel, and this is home, okay?”
Luke said, “Fine, whatever you say. But wait, when did I say that I’m going to sleep with her? That’s just your speculation!”
Selina said, “It’s just a kind reminder in case you swoon over a rich lady.”
Luke said, “Fine. Can she at least have some
food?”
Selina said, “Do you really think I’m so petty? She’s free to have all of this if she can. Well, hm, she better leave half of it for me.”
Luke said, “How generous of you!”
In the bathroom, Jenny took off her nightie and put on the thick T-shirt, before she took a look around
She realized that there were only female products in this bathroom, and that there was only one toothbrush in a feminine style.
So, the two people outside really were just roommates?
Details like these were hard to cover up, and could reveal the true relationship between a man and a woman.
She wasn’t wrong.
This bathroom was Selina’s, and Luke only used the ensuite in his room. Naturally, their stuff wasn’t placed together.
After she changed and walked to the dining room, Luke greeted her with a smile. “Here. Have something first.”
Jenny sat down next to him obediently, but she felt rather uncomfortable when Selina gave her a cryptic smile.
