Super Detective in the Fictional World

Chapter 237 Future Secretary

Frowning and thinking for a while, Jenny said uncertainly, “The subjects in school seem easy. I even won a scholarship in my freshman year. The stuff that my dad taught me wasn’t difficult to understand either.”

Luke said, “In that case, you should work harder, and I can hire you as my secretary later. How does that sound?”

Jenny was surprised. “Huh?”

A small-time detective offering to hire a rich girl as a secretary? Really?

Luke chuckled. “I mean it. I have a small business that hasn’t made much progress yet. If you’re skilled, you can apply your talents there.”

Jenny hesitated. “But I don’t actually have practical experience. Books are just books. I don’t think I’m capable...” She was a lot shrewder when they talked business.

Luke hugged her and kissed her. “It’s fine. Even the highest skyscraper has to start with a foundation. Are you not confident that you can be a good secretary?”

Jenny looked at Luke. “Should I really try it out?”

Luke nodded with a smile. “Of course. Chances are you might be able to expand my company until it’s even bigger than your father’s. Don’t you want to see the look on his face then? Haha.”

Jenny was rendered speechless.

The Tiger Foundation that her father controlled was itself worth almost a billion dollars, and dealt in billions of dollars in cash flow as well. Luke sounded too audacious.

However, hope flickered in her heart. It wouldn’t be bad at all if she started out small and went on to develop a company until it was worth a hundred million dollars.

Luke looked at her and smiled. “Everyone should have a dream, because anything can happen.”

Jenny was lost for words. It did sound inspiring, but didn’t Luke say last night that the dreams of the rich were dreams, while the dreams of the poor were just daydreams?

So, wake up already and stop fantasizing!

Luke had no idea that Jenny was absentmindedly thinking about his joke from last night.

He simply kissed her again and said, “It’s a deal, then. I’ll be waiting for your application, Secretary Jenny.”

Jenny: “...Fine.”

Then, Luke watched her enter her villa.

He got back into his car and chuckled. “If she really knows what she’s doing, she can help me do all the work in the future.”

Jenny had no idea what was on Luke’s mind, or she would’ve demanded a different position, like general manager.

Luke didn’t really know whether Jenny had the capability or not.

If she didn’t, she could work as a simple assistant. If she wanted to quit, she could leave anytime. Either way, Luke had nothing to lose by hiring her.

At the end of the day, Luke went to the police department and entered Elsa’s office.

But Elsa wasn’t there. When Luke came out, he saw her waving at him from the door of Dustin’s office.

Luke walked to her with a smile. “Boss, you’re here to report, too?”

Elsa glared at him and said, “Let’s talk inside.”

Dustin stared at Luke and didn’t say anything after the door closed.

Luke just kept smiling. Eventually, it was Dustin who gave in first.

As the head of the Major Crimes Division, he couldn’t waste time with Luke.

“Tell me, did Miss Gwenis give you any intelligence?” Dustin got straight to the point.

Luke thought to himself, She didn’t give me any intelligence, but she gave herself to me. Does that count?

Murmuring to himself inwardly, he shook his head. “Not much, but I think I can convince her to work with us and testify against WD-36.”

Dustin and Elsa exchanged “Just as I thought” looks.

Dustin said, “I don’t think this will be a difficult case. The two leaders of WD-36, as well as their trusted subordinates, have gone missing. Now, WD-36 has no leaders, and they can no longer cause any problems.”

Luke didn’t offer his input, and simply waited for Dustin to finish.

Dustin looked at Luke, a little put out. He found it impossible to get a rise out of the boy.

He could only say, “So, your holiday is over. Get back to work.”

Luke nodded. “Okay.”

“Where were you last night?” Dustin asked out of the blue.

Awkwardly, Luke said, “That’s... personal.”

Dustin said, “Cut the crap. I’m not recording your confession here. Tell me, what were you doing last night?”

Luke chuckled and looked at Elsa. “I was completing the mission that Elsa arranged for me.”

Dustin and Elsa both exclaimed, “What?”

Their expressions weren’t exactly the same, but they both had some surprise on their faces.

Elsa asked, “What mission did I arrange for

you?”

Dustin looked confused too. His gaze moved silently between his two capable subordinates.

Luke said, “Didn’t you want me to calm Miss Jenny down?”Elsa was lost for words. When did I ever ask you to do that?

Luke said matter-of-factly, “You told her my address last night. Did you want her to have dinner at my place? It doesn’t take a genius to know that you expected me to calm her down so that it’ll be easier to convict WD-36 later.”

Elsa was lost for words.

However, that indeed had been her plan.

After the huge drama yesterday, the police operation might draw criticism if WD-36 wasn’t convicted of Jenny’s abduction.

But a lot of rich people were unwilling to testify, since it was troublesome and could lead to the criminals retaliating against them.

As a young girl, if Jenny claimed that she hadn’t recovered from the shock, the police wouldn’t be able to ask her to testify, which would be tricky.

By giving Luke’s address to Jenny, Elsa had truly been hoping that he would use his pretty looks to take care of her.
