Chapter 352 Arrogant Man and “Kindhearted” Sister
Selina had an odd expression on her face as her voice dropped even lower. “He’s holding a party at this time? Is he really an Elsworth?”
Luke’s expression didn’t change, but he was a little puzzled as well.
It didn’t make sense at all for a man to hold a party at his seaside villa the day after his father was confirmed missing.
Looking at the joyous party, Luke said, “What do I feel like… this is a celebration?”
“I think so too!” Selina immediately agreed with him.
They had reached the partygoers on the beach by then, and two security guards noticed them.
The security guards blocked them and said, “This is a private party. No entry unless you have an invitation.”
Luke craned his head and looked behind the security guards, before he flashed his badge with a smile. “LAPD. We need to talk to Mr. Dylan Elsworth about a case.”
The security guards turned wary. “He isn’t available. You can go now.”
Luke nodded and said, “Then I’ll bring Mr. Dylan Elsworth in for drug abuse in a public place and talk to him at the police department. How about that?”
One of the security guards frowned and asked grimly, “Do you know where you are?”
Luke grinned brilliantly. “Of course I do. I’m in my jurisdiction. I don’t usually pay attention to illegal drugs, but with your attitude, sticking my nose in it once in a while isn’t so bad. Just nice, I also know Bill, the DEA’s deputy director.”
The security guard’s face turned dark. Finally, he said, “Fine, please wait a moment while I let him know.”
If Mr. Dylan really was taken to the police department, the security guard didn’t know what would happen to this young officer, but he knew that it wouldn’t end well for him.

Fake smile still in place, Luke said, “Thanks very much.”
They watched the security guard say a few words to Dylan, who simply waved his hand impatiently.
The security guard returned with a resigned look on his face. “Mr. Dylan has invited you in… You better not try anything.” He had realized that Luke wasn’t as harmless as he appeared.
Smiling, Luke put his badge on, and Selina did the same. She knew that it was time to put on a show.
When they reached Mr. Dylan, Luke greeted him politely. “Hello, Mr. Dylan Elsworth.”
He sounded polite, but he didn’t stretch out his hand nor bow, and was clearly just going through the formalities.
Dylan didn’t really care. He didn’t look at Luke and continued to flirt with the young girls next to him.
Ignoring that, Luke continued, “You own a red Ferrari F355, don’t you?” Dylan cocked his head, as if trying to recall, but then smiled unconcernedly. “I don’t know; maybe. I have too many cars.”
Luke was almost amused by this pretentious show of wealth.
He simply nodded and said, “This particular car appeared on the road two kilometers away from this villa. A young girl in pajamas — oh, similar to the girls next to you — was hit by the car and killed when it crashed into a tree on the roadside. Are you aware of this incident?”
The two girls looked shocked and doubtful when they heard this.
Dylan didn’t seem bothered at all. He asked, “Hey, Toby, do you remember where that race car of mine is?”
The security guard replied solemnly, “Sir, the F355 that this officer mentioned was stolen a week ago. We made a police report back then.”
Luke raised an eyebrow. “Is that so? Someone stole your car and drove it back to your villa two days later to hit the girl?”

Dylan laughed in amusement. “You’re a cop. What are you being paid for if I have to tell you everything? To eat sh*t? Haha.”
He then looked at the security guard. “Where are the newcomers today? Aren’t they here yet?”
The security guard said, “They’re over there.”
Unperturbed, Luke took a casual glance in the direction they were looking at, and was stunned.
Selina was dumbfounded. What the heck?
Another security guard led a group of girls over; they were all gorgeous and dressed beautifully.
One of the girls exclaimed in delight. “Huh? Why are you here?” Luke narrowed his eyes. “I’m here for work. And you?” The girl said with a smile, “A senior told me about a party here and brought me with her.”
Luke sighed and pulled her away, before he asked in a low voice, “Jimena, do you really not know what sort of place this is?”
Jimena was confused at first, but then seemed to realize something. “Are you jealous? Don’t worry, I won’t let them take advantage of me. Parimera is a senior from my school, and we have a pretty good relationship. She said I would be able to meet a lot of financial experts here.”
Luke was convinced by Jimena’s genuine delight; she didn’t look flustered at all.
She was now a part-time clerk at Nakatomi Corporation.
For Luke’s sake, Takagi had arranged a position for her with much better pay than for regular employees. Luke often gave her little pragmatic gifts, like phones, perfume, makeup, purses, and so on.
These gifts were mid-range products that were suitable for her job, so Jimena was able to save quite a bit on necessary expenses.
They had been meeting several times a month, and she wasn’t a secret service agent; it was impossible for her to hide any changes from Luke.
His Sharp Nose would have easily detected any abnormalities in her.
So, that Parimera senior had tricked her into coming here.
This was how treacherous a person could be!
Jimena wasn’t short of money; anybody with a brain would be able to tell that from her clothes and her daily expenses. Then why would Parimera bring her here?
Luke didn’t believe in a “pure and kindhearted” senior.
This was more a person who wanted to drag down someone who was living a better life than she was into the abyss with her so that they could be ruined and filthy together.
There were always people who felt happy when they saw other people doing poorly in life.
“Blacklist that b*tch. She’s trying to set you up,” said Luke.
Jimena gave an “oh” of surprise, but already had a faint inkling of what was going on.
Actually, as soon as she had arrived at the beach, she had noticed that something wasn’t right.
