Seven Hundred and Eighty-Seven Chapters Stubborn Old Man and Good Child

"Luke, I'm very worried about my grandfather, and my parents are not here, so I can only call you." Joseph said.

Luke hummed: "I'll call him right away, don't worry." He hung up the phone.

Joseph, despite his young age, is quite intelligent.

Catherine and Luke mentioned in their chat that Joseph's IQ is likely to meet the requirements to enter the Mensa Club.

Robert and Katherine are still in Europe, Luke and Claire are in Los Angeles.

Joseph easily judged the best person to ask for help - it can only be Luke.

Regarding this younger brother's words, Luke did not dare to take it lightly, and immediately called Drex's cell phone, but the line was busy.

He frowned and said, "Turn on repeat dialing." Then he put the phone on the center console.

A minute later, Drex's phone was still busy.

Selena took out her phone: "I have Ferreira's number here, I'll call him."

Luke hummed.

Ranch veterinarian Ferreira worked with Selena's dad for years.

Just now, Joseph said that Ferreira is also in Dallas, so contacting Ferreira can confirm the situation.

Ferreira's phone was quickly connected.

Selena just said a few words, and turned on the phone hands-free and put it on Luke's side.

Ferreira was indeed on his way to pick up Joseph, but he still didn't know why Drex was so angry.

Luke just asked him to get to Drex as soon as possible to make sure he could get in touch with his grumpy grandpa.

Even Robert stayed away from Drex's temper, so he could imagine how difficult it was for the old man to persuade him.

Drex was born with a violent temper, and it was difficult to control it all the time. When he went to his daughter Catherine's house, he would definitely quarrel with Robert every day, and his daughter and grandchildren would have a hard time.

Catherine also understood what he was thinking, and when she had time, she would let her three grandchildren go to the ranch for the weekend, and Drex would stay at the ranch with peace of mind.

In the words of this stubborn old man,

He was used to working and living on the ranch and didn't need to go to Sackford to retire.

Drex is also in good health, and there are about ten people working on the ranch, so he is not afraid that no one will notify him if something happens.

However, the stubborn old man still has weaknesses.

He was very fond of Luke, his grandson, and rarely reprimanded him.

Completely spoiling Claire and Joseph.

If it wasn't for Claire and Joseph just having fun on weekends, this stubborn old man could spoil his two grandchildren.

For example, this time I went to Dallas to watch the car show, which was definitely Joseph's idea. Otherwise, if Drake was in his early seventies, who would be interested in watching this kind of show.

A few minutes later, Luke finally dialed Drex's cell phone.

Before he said a few words, he could only helplessly listen to the blind tone of beeping from his mobile phone.

The stubborn old man was in a hurry and hung up the phone directly.

Selena: "Am I asking you for leave?"

Luke sighed: "I'll just say hello to Elsa myself, my vacation is long over."

If this had happened two days earlier, he would have taken advantage of the weekend to justifiably take a vacation.

Now he can only go through the back door, and only report to Elsa to avoid urgent cases being dispatched to him.

If he is checked in under special circumstances, Elsa will immediately give him a leave of absence.

Of course, without the support of a hardcore boss, ordinary police detectives would not dare to play like this.

Luke drove all the way to the airport like this, booked the nearest flight directly, and boarded the plane an hour later.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, he exited the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport, took a taxi outside the airport and headed straight to the hotel.

More than half an hour later, he entered a three-star hotel and knocked on the door of room 507.

Drex's face appeared in the crack of the door.

Seeing Luke, he shook his hand angrily and left: "Why are you coming back? You don't have to worry about me when I'm not old and confused."

Luke followed into the room, closed the door, and took the old man's shoulder: "Grandpa, if I don't care about you, then there will be a problem."

The old man hummed without refuting his words.

Although his temper is stubborn, he can tell the difference.

Walking into the room, Luke and Drex sat down, picked up a bottle of whisky on the table and glanced at the old man: "I remember, the last time the doctor gave you a physical examination, he said that you should drink less alcohol and drink more wine and beer?"

Drex's head tilted: "You take care of me!"

But he immediately answered again: "I've been on the phone, so I haven't had a drink yet."

Luke smiled, went to the refrigerator, took out two bottles of beer, and handed one to the old man: "It's hot, put out the fire."

The old man can't do it either.

Luke has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, not even in his childhood.

Every time he thinks of Luke's parents who died early, the old man feels more distressed for him, thinking that it is because of his lack of parents that he has become so precocious and sensible.

In the old man's opinion, Texas boys should be wild from an early age.

Fighting, smoking, drinking and flirting with girls, the Texas boy in the old man's perception should grow up like this.

And Luke grew up, these basically do not stick.

If it wasn't for Luke and Ximena getting along better in the last two years of middle school, the old man would have suspected that there was something wrong with his grandson's orientation.

Therefore, the old man couldn't speak hard to Luke.

After drinking two sips of cold beer, Luke said, "Grandpa, I've come back here. In order not to waste the air ticket money, can you tell me about it? Besides, why am I also a third-order police detective of the LAPD serious crime team? , the detection rate ranks first in Los Angeles. If you really want to do something against someone, then I am familiar with the legal provisions, and I am also clear about the police's case handling process..."

Drex raised his hand in surrender: "Stop! I don't really want to shoot anyone, you don't have to think so carefully."

The meaning of Luke's words is almost "even if you really kill people, I can help you wash the ground clean".

Facing the unconditional support of his family, how could the old man resist.

The last thing he wanted was to make it difficult for his family, let alone to let Luke do the things he knew and violated the law for himself.

Luke snickered in his heart,

He knew very well that his grandfather was a soft-hearted person.

Rather than persuading him hard, it is better to start from the family aspect, so that he can really calm down.

With a sigh, the relieved old man finally told the story again.

Luke listened silently, even if there was an old man yelling at the murderer who killed his old brother, he didn't interrupt his story.

After the old man stopped talking and breathed for a moment, he asked, "Grandpa, do you have someone at the police station? Otherwise, the situation at the scene will be out of control."

This case is very big, and it took less than a day for it to happen.

In order to solve the case, the police will definitely keep the details of the case secret for the time being.

The old man hummed: "Among the people I know, there are juniors in the police station."

Luke: "Can he take me to the scene to see it?"

The old man hesitated.

He was unhappy himself, and he took the gun and killed anyone he wanted to kill.

But let Luke take the risk, but he didn't want to.
