Chapter 1937: Nonstop Problems During Spring

Taking a few deep breaths, Skye deliberated for a moment before she finally asked, “Then, can I become someone like Selina?”
Luke was lost for words. Do you want to sunbathe in front of me too?
Even as he roasted her inwardly, he stretched out his hand solemnly. “I can’t say for sure, but I look forward to the day we become unshakable partners.”
Stunned for a moment, Skye finally stretched out her hand, and Luke pulled her into a half-hug. “Good girl! I have high hopes for you. Let’s go. I’ll take you home.”
With that, he immediately let go of her and walked back. Only then did Skye react. Wait, something didn’t feel right.
!!Then, she got it, and chased after Luke. “Don’t run. When will that day be? If you don’t tell me the exact time, then you’re just a thug…”
Luke chuckled inwardly. You’ll understand when I really act like a thug with you!
Selina was good at fighting and even gave him benefits every so often; she wasn’t stupid enough to ask these sorts of sensitive questions.
Want to compete with Selina? Hehe, this little girl was too young.
Besides, was it wrong for him to reject Skye? He would really be scum if he led her on!
If he made a move on everyone who had a good impression of him, then the twins, Carol, Nikki and Monica all had a chance.
If he was really that much of a playboy, it wasn’t necessarily impossible even with Mindy, who had met him before she met Joseph.
But what would be the point? He didn’t want to live a life like Bobby’s, where he switched women every day.
Actually, Luke had always hated trouble.
To him, exchanging sweet nothings with a bunch of women every day wasn’t enjoyment, but torture.
Compared with trying all sorts of means to sweet-talk women into bed, he would rather work on technology and equipment in the lab. If he was interested, he would pick it up, and if he wasn’t, he would put it down.
They didn’t need to be coaxed, and there was no end to the fun.
Even excluding these things that didn’t have emotions, didn’t he still have two sisters and a brother?
If he didn’t ‘mess’ with his siblings, what fun was there in being a big brother?
Claire and Joseph had grown up and weren’t fun anymore.
But… there was still little Cindy! This little sister was only five, and was the most fun to tease.
A man with a healthy body, a warm family, good parents, entertaining siblings, endless research on technology and equipment, endless money, and who even had a few girlfriends – why would he look for trouble by playing around?
Luke didn’t want unnecessary problems.
If a man dallied and drew things out, it would cause even more problems. A man should be open and frank from the beginning.
This wasn’t unusual here.
As long as a couple wasn’t married, it wasn’t uncommon for both parties to have a few partners at the same time.
Even when introducing someone to a friend, there were special terms like “casual,” “exclusive,” “engaged,” and “married” that could be used.
Luke had never said that he had an “exclusive” girlfriend.
Skye clearly didn’t want to be that sort of girlfriend, which automatically excluded her.
Of course, it could also be because she was too close to Luke, and was too embarrassed to say that it was okay to be that sort of girlfriend.
But that wasn’t Luke’s problem. There was nothing wrong with girls being a little more reserved.
When he dropped Skye off, she simply said goodbye and entered the house without even a smile.
Watching her enter the house, Luke chuckled and shook his head before he drove off.
The lights in the house came on, and a person stood by the window and watched the SUV leave. She was silent for a long time.
…
That wasn’t the only problem that spring brought.
Luke’s Level 1 clone had been in the Pacific Ocean for three months after April passed.
However, it wasn’t hard for his clone at all.
Apart from going into the ocean to educate the octopus baby, he spent most of his time in Hawaii; it was no different from a holiday.
Haley, who had been roaming the world, also came. She said that she hadn’t seen the Joker in a long while, and she also wanted to get Life 1 from him.
This was the ‘wage’ which Luke had used to tempt the symbiote, Agony. It sounded reasonable, but he still firmly believed in what he felt — this was all because of spring, even if it was more like summer in Hawaii.
It had been a few months since they last met, and Dr. Haley’s looks and figure had become even more outstanding. This proved how amazing the combined effect of Life 1 and the symbiote was.
Luke silently noted down the results of this experiment.
When there was time in the future, he would get the dog head’s clone to give everyone in his family full ‘healthcare cover’ – this was far more valuable than just using Life 1 alone.
The dog head wouldn’t lose out either.
Dr. Haley clearly wasn’t asking for Life 1 just for herself; Agony also couldn’t wait.
The benefits of this thing for the symbiote were obvious.
After a shot of Life 1, what happened next was quite… horrifying.
Agony instantly entered the complete symbiotic form. It was clearly very excited.
Dr. Haley, who had turned into a ‘blue woman,’ still had her senses about her. She jumped into the shallow waters outside the house.
She knew very well that the Joker didn’t like her blue-skinned form; he looked at her like she was an experiment.
Conversely, he always admired her original looks.
However unhappy Agony was, Haley much preferred to be looked at by the Joker. In any case, Agony couldn’t leave her if it wanted Life 1.
She didn’t want the Joker to grow distant toward her.
Ten minutes later, when Dr. Haley came out of the ocean, she was back to normal.
Her wet white nightgown clung to her body, fully exposing the female doctor.
Luke admired the beautiful view, but didn’t plan to go any further.
He didn’t want to do anything with the symbiote. Just thinking about it grossed him out.
But that was where the problem with spring came in.
He didn’t want to, but he couldn’t stop people from having different thoughts.
After Dr. Haley came in, she didn’t go to the bathroom. Instead, she walked over to him and sat down.
Not only did her face draw closer to his, she also put her arms around his shoulders. “I think I’ve only taken half my salary for the past six months.”
Luke smiled and rubbed her face. “No, dear Haley, you’re spending your own life.”
Haley’s eyes flickered. “Really? I don’t believe it.”
Before she finished speaking, the arms on Luke’s shoulders turned blue.
A wicked smile appeared on Luke’s face, but he cursed inwardly. I take you in as a subordinate, and you want to sweet-talk me? You even brought the symbiote with you to persuade me. You’re crazy.
With a thought, a strange vibration spread from his body to Haley’s arms.
The blue color instantly faded to reveal two fair arms.
With the same smile, he withdrew his hands from Haley’s face and placed them on her arms. “Do you believe me now?”
