Chapter 511 Beauty, Need a Hand?

Suddenly, his face changed as he looked at the surveillance image sent through by the drone.

On screen, a race car was being tailed by three other cars in a high-speed chase.

A car chase wasn’t strange. The important thing was that the car being chased belonged to Vanessa.

Luke had keyed her car into his database after meeting Vanessa the other night.

Watching the three cars chase Vanessa on the screen, Luke chuckled. “Interesting.” He then turned the wheel and drove in her direction.

Vanessa was feeling quite vexed.

Her luck hadn’t been great in the last few months.

After leaving New York, she had traveled through several other American cities, hoping to find more opportunities to make money. But as time went on, her partners had to leave one by one for various reasons, so they could only disband.

She tried to operate on her own, but always failed at the last moment.

Helpless, she found an opportunity to go to Mexico from America, before she returned to Rio.

Now, she could only make some money by participating in underground car races.

Though her life was better than most in Brazil, it was nowhere close to her life before.

A few days earlier, an old acquaintance she met when she snuck across the border from Mexico sent her a job offer.

Since life hadn’t been great for her lately, she hadn’t thought twice about accepting the offer.

It wasn’t until later that she learned that it was a big job worth a hundred million dollars.

The price was that she would be going toe to toe with the biggest bigshot in the city — Hernan Reyes.

However, money was infinitely powerful. She couldn’t quit after hearing that the reward was a hundred million dollars, so she joined the team in the end.

Since Vanessa was a local and hung around the underground car market, she was entrusted with the task of reconnaissance.

There was no telling what went wrong, but she got the attention of a bunch of FBI agents right after she left home.

Cursing inwardly, Vanessa quickly turned around a street corner.

She couldn’t help but yell when she saw what was up ahead. “Are you serious? Damn it!”

In front of her was a street that was completely jammed due to a car accident. She couldn’t get through at all.

As for the road behind her, the three FBI cars were right next to each other, leaving no space for her to pass through.

Gritting her teeth, she got out and ran into a nearby alley. The truth was that she was much a better driver than she was a runner.

She was even still wearing high heels at that moment, which affected her speed even more.

She heard the faint sound of the cars screeching to a stop behind her. The FBI agents had arrived, but she had only run ten meters into the alley.

At that moment, she realized that the alley was a dead end.

Had her luck just gotten worse? She was seized with desperation. “Hi, Miss Vanessa. We meet again. Are you out for a morning jog?” A voice rang out from high above on the side.

Stunned, Vanessa turned around and looked.

She saw a person sticking his head out over the top of the wall and smiling at her. It was none other than Luke.

“You...” For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

Luke, however, glanced behind her. “It seems someone is looking for you. Are you sure you don’t want to hide?”

Vanessa turned around. She didn’t see anyone, but she could hear many footsteps quickly drawing closer. She glared at Luke. “Where can I hide?”

Luke asked, “Do you need my help?”

Vanessa gnashed her teeth. “Yes.”

She had been tricked by Luke before back in New York. She knew that the officer was cunning, but he did cut her loose once.

Also, the char siu had been quite tasty. Luke chuckled. “As you wish, beautiful lady!”

He then stretched out his hand, and Vanessa grabbed it. Then, she felt like she was flying.

Several seconds later, three FBI agents in tactical vests charged in. The brawny baldie in the lead was surprised. “Where is she?”

His two colleagues split up and checked the location before they both shook their heads. “This is a dead end.” The brawny baldie scratched his head. “What the heck? Can this woman fly?”.

As he asked that question, Vanessa didn’t feel like she was flying at all. The only thought in her mind was that she had to take a shower once she got home. Clinging tightly to Luke with all four limbs, she felt them brush through narrow gaps between buildings, and in less than ten seconds, they were out on the roadside. Luke stopped and asked, “Alright, Miss Vanessa, do you want to go get your racing car?”

Vanessa got off from his back and patted her hair to ensure that there weren’t any spider webs in it. She then said, “There’s no point; they’ll definitely track it down.” Luke smiled. “Do you need a ride?”

Vanessa paused and stared at him for a few seconds before she nodded. “Okay.” A moment later, Vanessa asked casually from the passenger seat, “What happened to this car? Did you rob someone?”

Luke shrugged. “I rescued someone.”

Vanessa was stunned, not expecting him to reply so frankly. “Your friend?”

Luke said, “A personal assignment.”

Speechless for a moment, Vanessa shook her head in amusement. “I should’ve seen that coming. You aren’t a regular cop.” Luke wasn’t too bothered. “If I were a regular cop, you would’ve already been thrown in jail, wouldn’t you?”

Vanessa was lost for words.

“Were you following me?” she suddenly asked.

Luke chuckled. “No, I wasn’t.”

Vanessa wasn’t convinced at all. It was too big a coincidence for them to accidentally run into each other twice in a row in a metropolis with millions of residents.

Noticing her suspicion, Luke shrugged. “I was following Hernan Reyes.”

Vanessa was surprised. “What?”.

Luke said, “To put it simply, he and I are connected because of a certain incident, so I’m investigating him in passing.” “And?” Vanessa subconsciously asked.

Luke chuckled but didn’t say anything.

Vanessa immediately got it.

Whether or not there was an “and” was a secret, just like how it was also a secret why she and her new partners were going after Hernan.Dropping the subject, Luke asked something else. “How have you been in the last few months? Are you happy?”

Vanessa’s face turned dark. Why would this guy bring up such a depressing topic? Looking at her face, Luke nodded, deep in thought. “It seems that it hasn’t been easy.”

Vanessa snorted and glared at him with her charming electric eyes once again.

Luke pulled over with a smile. “We’re here.”

Vanessa was about to open the door, when Luke said, “Wait a moment. Why don’t we play some cards?”

She looked at the poker cards in Luke’s hand in astonishment. “Excuse me? Did you really just say that?”

Luke took off his sunglasses and smiled brilliantly at her. “I’m a fortune teller. Let’s play two blackjack games, and I’ll know if you’ll be lucky later.”

Looking at Luke’s cold blue eyes, Vanessa seemed to go into a trance, and somehow forgot her initial plan to refuse him.
