Chapter 2023: Director Selina’s Vacation, Acquaintance With Two Outstanding Advantages
Luke’s and Selina’s families were the most comfortable.
For an ordinary housewife like Catherine, who had only learned bits and pieces from her husband, she just felt that after dreaming for a while, she suddenly became… a super housewife who was proficient in combat and firearms.
However, they had lived in an ordinary environment for a long time, so the knowledge instilled in their heads by Real Dream wasn’t harsh.
Otherwise, if a minor everyday dispute happened, they might subconsciously beat up a few acid-tongued housewives or impudent cla.s.smates.
!!
Dream training gave them a sense of security and defense. Close-fitting nanotech gear made up for their lack of stamina, and mental suggestions ensured that no secrets were leaked.
This completely made up for the ‘software’ issues with their safety.
It would really be a little difficult otherwise to make these ranch owners, housewives and ordinary students train in firearms and combat every day.
…
In early November, Director Selina, who hated the cold New York weather, gave herself a few days off.
Now that Jennifer and Mindy were familiar with the PDD, and Skye had taken on most of the intelligence-gathering and a.n.a.lysis work, Director Selina was only a quarter as stressed as before.
When it came to pa.s.sing on the buck, the director was quintessentially like a certain person — hand the work over to the right person, then slack off as much as you want.
It was only when she returned to Shackelford that she learned that her parents would be going on a honeymoon in Europe in two days.
Looking at her parents, who were acting all lovey-dovey, she couldn’t help but needle them. “When we went back to Mexico, you said that was a honeymoon, right?”
Sandra, her mother, had just turned 50, but Selina had been secretly giving her Life 1, and she was getting younger and younger. She looked like she was only in her thirties.
Her skin and figure were superior, and her colorful outfits made her even more gorgeous.
When Selina went out with her, the attention of most men would be on Sandra.
It wasn’t that Selina was too manly, but that her mother was too feminine — a woman who was half a head shorter than Selina and who was slightly more voluptuous was just that attractive.
Selina’s father, Mario, had also been taking Life 1.
The fact that he had been able to get together with Sandra, who was considered the most beautiful girl in their neighborhood, in his teens proved that he wasn’t bad-looking.
Thanks to their genes, Selina and her siblings had even more outstanding looks.
At that moment, Sandra didn’t even look at her daughter. She simply winked at her husband. “That was for your father’s sake. I was just going back to visit my family. Of course it doesn’t count.”
Mario didn’t say anything, but he didn’t correct her.
Selina asked, “What about that one-month trip around America? You even said you got married again in Las Vegas.”
Sandra snorted. “Spending a honeymoon in the country isn’t romantic at all; if it isn’t in Tahiti, then it’s Hawaii. I want to go to Europe to experience the arts. Is that too much to ask?”
Selina said, “… You can actually go to Tahiti and Hawaii. That way, I can go along and enjoy the sun.”
She had come back because she wanted to veg out at home for a few days and play with her siblings.
If Sandra left, wouldn’t that mean that she came rus.h.i.+ng back only to be a nanny?
Sandra blinked. “But we went to one place last year and the other place the year before. Hm, of course that wasn’t a honeymoon.”
Selina rolled her eyes and lay back on the couch. “Who cares about you? If you want to go, go. Remember to call in a part-time cleaner to do the housework.”
Sandra said, “Don’t worry, I’ve entrusted Julio to Catherine and the others. A few of the kids are studying in Knox City. Leona is coming to Europe with us.”
Selina stared at her mother in shock. “What about me?”
Sandra was at a loss. “Didn’t you want to take a break? Isn’t it relaxing to be the only one at home?”
Selina: …Then wouldn’t it be more relaxing for me to take a yacht out in New York and sleep there?
Two days later, Selina wound up setting off with her family to London.
Firstly, there was indeed nothing to do at home, and secondly, she could play with Leona for a few days before throwing her back to Sandra.
There would be no problem with the family’s safety.
Director Selina was now a reputable person with a large s.p.a.ce storage.
Bringing along a few sets of armor, eight to ten remote-controlled androids and hundreds of drones was nothing.
As long as her family was in the same city, it wouldn’t take more than five minutes to find them.
Since Sandra wanted to go and experience the arts, Selina would look for delicious food on her own.
London had all sorts of international gourmet food, enough for her to eat for a few days.
As soon as they got off the plane, Mario, Sandra and Leona took a car straight to the hotel and went to bed to adjust for jet lag.
Selina rented a car and took the dog head with her on a food trip.
Today was a rare day of suns.h.i.+ne for London, which made the gloomy city a little warmer.
Selina was deciding between several restaurants, and so was driving a little slower.
She looked at the restaurant signs in front of her as the dog head wrangled with her from the backseat.
Suddenly, a red Volvo SUV stopped in front of them, and a woman got out.
Selina felt a sense of familiarity.
She subconsciously turned to take a look. The woman’s large bosom was especially eye-catching under her coat and scarf.
Looking at the woman’s face, Selina exclaimed, “Wait, this woman… looks familiar!”
The dog head immediately got up and looked in the woman’s direction. It then quickly typed on the phone: “You idiot, it’s that big sister who went to Shackelford, the one who was getting a doctorate from Harvard.”
“That’s right, so it’s her.” Selina suddenly realized that something wasn’t right. “Wait, why do you remember so much?”
The dog head glanced at her disdainfully and continued typing: “You were jealous of her chest and complained to me that Luke wanted to hook up with her.”
Selina didn’t believe him. “That’s impossible. I complain about so many people, how can you remember?”
The dog head said, “It’s because she has a bigger chest than you do, and you suspected that Luke hooked up with her.”
Selina was lost for words.
There were a lot of women with big chests, but most of them were either plain-looking or had never had the chance to meet Luke.
It was indeed rare for Selina to bring up more than once a girl whom Luke had hooked up with.
