It's a pity that this sentence seems to have failed with Brian and Mia.

Because Mia didn't intend to give Brian, a good person, a chance to be rewarded.

Originally, after entering the door, Mia, who was smiling, saw Brian wearing an apron, smirking at her like an iron egg, and holding a handful of garlic in his hand.

Suddenly.

The smile on Mia's face, with a speed visible to the naked eye, quickly disappeared and rolled her eyes at Brian, and then walked towards Luke, who had already grilled a steak in the backyard.

"Luke."

"Mia."

Luke turned around and hugged Mia, who was two years younger than him, with a smile on his face: "Welcome home." ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Ke let go of the hug, looked at Mia's body, and said with a smile: "It's a little darker, but it's still under control." ”

He had promised Don, especially Letty, to take good care of Mia when the two of them went abroad to steal oil for their country.

Mia smiled slightly, then fell on Rachel on the side, then winked at Luke, and motioned for Luke to hurry up and introduce him.

Luke flipped over a few steaks on the barbecue and introduced Rachel and Mia to each other.

"Rachel, this is Mia, my sister."

"Mia, this is Rachel, my fiancée."

Rachel smiled at Mia and said, "Hello, Mia, welcome to the house." ”

Mia also replied politely, and then, with her face sideways, made an exaggerated and incredulous expression towards Luke.

Luke could understand what Mia was feeling right now.

After all, when she and Brian went to Miremy, not to mention that Rachel was his fiancée, he didn't even know who Rachel was.

Even Ruke didn't even have a house of his own at that time.

But for now?

Mia's relationship with Brian once again came to the edge of the cliff, and when he came back, good guy, Luke had a car, a house, a job, and even a fiancée.

So Mia's shock is understandable.

It is estimated that when he and Letty come back, they will be even more shocked.

"That's right!"

Luke once again thought of Don and Letty, who were not able to come back this time, and said to Mia, "Don and Letty will also be able to come back at the end of the month." ”

Mia was slightly stunned and looked at Luke.

"Come back, what's going on?"

"Go back normally, don't worry, I'll get him an exemption order."

“……”

Mia froze in place and looked at Lu Ke, who spoke lightly: "Waiver order? ”

Luke nodded: "Well, but the exemption order is still in Sacramento now, and when the things over there are done, the exemption order will be back, almost at the end of the month, and I'll confirm with the local inspection side when the time comes." ”

Mia opened her mouth and looked at Luke, "I...... I don't know what to say. ”

Luke smiled: "Needless to say, this is a matter between me and Don, he is my brother, as if Brian is also my brother." ”

Mia came back to her senses in an instant and pursed her lips.

"Luke."

"What."

"Say it."

Mia looked at Luke with speechless eyes, "Do you know what he's doing in Miami?" ”

Luke nodded, and then said, "He said that it was the woman from the General Customs Administration who took the initiative, and he didn't stick out his tongue." ”

Rachel, who was on the side, heard this and couldn't help but look at Luke.

It seems to be saying, really fake, did Brian really say that?

Luke shrugged.

All right.

In fact, this last sentence was added by himself.

But......

That's what it means, anyway.

He moved, I didn't, that means I didn't betray you.

Well.

Mia listened to this and took a deep breath.

After a while.

Mia spoke again, looked at Luke, and shook her head a little speechlessly: "By the way, what benefits did Brian give you, can I invite you out to speak for him?" ”

Luke didn't want to hide it from Mia, and said honestly: "Actually, I don't want to get involved in your affairs, Rachel told me the same thing, but, no way, he gave too much." ”

Mia frowned, her eyes flashing with a hint of menace.

"He still has money? How much money does he give you? ”

"Didn't give any money."

"Ahh

"But he called me sir."

Lu Ke looked at Mia, who had a somewhat dull expression, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Standing in front of me, bowing one hundred and eighty degrees, the kind that calls me sir, you say, is it too much?" ”

Mia listened to Luke's words, and subconsciously turned her head to look at Brian in an apron in the room.

Own man, he knows.

Brian is actually the same person as Luke and Don, and has his own pride.

So......

Mia pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and walked towards the house.

Rachel on the side looked at Mia who was walking towards the house, and after coming back to her senses, she couldn't help but look at Luke: "It's really fake, isn't there anything if you don't stick out your tongue?" ”

Lu Ke was slightly stunned, looked at Rachel, and said with a serious expression: "I also criticize him like this, but there is no way, who made him my brother, as a brother, I support him, but as a good man, I despise him!" ”

Rachel's expression softened.

After a while.

Lorna also came home from school.

Happened.

Lorna, who had just walked to the door, was curiously looking at a Dodge muscle car parked at the door, and Vince drove to the door.

Lorna's eyes lit up, looked at Vince who got out of the car, and hurriedly greeted him.

She knew Vince because he had been there at the Dannes' funeral that day, and after that day, almost every weekend, Luke would call Vince to his house, have a grilled steak, and have a drink in the backyard or something.

When Vince and Lorna entered the room, the first thing they saw was Brian and Mia, who were cuddling together at the bar and gnawing on each other.

Lorna watched this scene, her mouth slightly open.

Vince was also slightly stunned, and then coughed quickly.

Brian and Mia quickly separated like frightened birds.

"Vinnce." Brian smiled dryly and greeted Vince, who hadn't liked him much since he had been undercover.

Vince hummed nonchalantly, then smiled and hugged Mia as she walked over.

"Oh my God, Mia, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Vince."

After Mia and Vince embraced, their eyes fell on Lorna, who was standing behind Vince.

Vince then introduced the two of them.

Lorna and Mia have never met.

But Mia also knows Luke's true identity, and at the same time, Luke also talked to Mia on the phone about Lorna's existence as a sister.

With the arrival of Vince and Lorna, and a single sentence that reconciles a couple whose relationship is about to break up, the speed of sorting out the dishes spends up.

About an hour later.

When Lorna finished her homework and went to the backyard, the last steak had just been taken off the barbecue.

Soon.

At the table in the backyard, everyone was seated.

And then......

Lorna, who was just about to take a bite of the steak on her plate, saw the right palm handed by Vince, who was sitting opposite.

The next second.

Lorna looked up.

into the eyes.

Luke, who was sitting at the top, had already stretched out his hands, holding Rachel's left hand on the right side, and Mia's right hand on the left.

Lorna subconsciously learned the movements of several people, holding Rachel's right hand and the right palm handed over by Vince, and finally formed a closed loop.

Immediately afterward, Lorna heard Luc smiling and saying a pre-dinner prayer that had never been spoken before.

Lorna was a little curious.

After following the crowd and saying Amen, he lowered his body and said to Rachel on the side, "Rachel, isn't Luke not religious?" ”

Anyway, she's been here for so long, and she hasn't seen Ruke move in any faith.

But there are some non-religious behaviors, and she has seen a lot.

Like what......

One day, Lorna saw Luke secretly use the cross of Rachel's ornament box as a beer driver, and open a beer or something there.

Rachel listened to Lorna's words and smiled slightly: "Your brother is not religious, but your brother believes in his family, and today the family is back." ”

Lorna blinked, not understanding, but it didn't stop her from being immediately attracted by the fragrant steak on her plate.

Sitting in the first place, with Mia, Brian and Vince, and Luke, who talked and laughed, felt extra happy today.

Although he now has a status and a status, he also has the ability to protect himself.

But I have to say that Luke has begun to miss the time when he first came to this world, and lived in the Tang Auto Repair Workshop before he had no ability to protect himself, and the happy time with his family.

OK.

The two people who are still missing from this table will be able to come back at the end of the month.

Luke was talking and laughing with a few people, thinking in his heart.

Today's dinner was a great one.

This is true for anyone.

After dinner, Rachel and Lorna went back to their room to help Lorna review her homework.

Next year will be Lorna's graduation season.

And according to Lorna's current grades, there is no problem with graduation, but, Ivy League schools or something, there is no need to think about it.

Unless it's a stack of letters of recommendation.

Otherwise, with Lorna's grades, she would have to go to a community college for further study.

Therefore, as Lorna's good sister-in-law and the future head of the Dane family, Rachel feels that she has this responsibility and obligation to let Lorna get into a good university.

Brian and Mia took care of the task of cleaning up after the meal.

Luke and Vince sat on a recliner in the backyard, smoking an after-dinner cigarette while sipping a fine thunder bourbon.

Vince had just known that Luke had found the waiver order, looked at Brian and Mia, who were packing up the dishes over there, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, everyone can go home in time for the New Year." ”

Luke didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "The Chinese New Year definitely needs to be with your family." ”

Vince nodded.

The next second.

Vince seemed to think of something, and looked at Ruke.

"By the way, I brought you the CPH4 you asked me to find for you last time, in the car, do you want to give it to you?"
