The daily life of American drama detective

Chapter 279 Peggy: I agree to this marriage, you can do whatever you want!
Chuck drove back to the mountainside villa.

Monica is not there.

Only Mia sat there with a confused expression. When Chuck came back, her refocused eyes were a little complicated. When Chuck looked over, she lowered her head.

"Is something wrong?"

Chuck asked.

"No."

Mia shook her head: "How's the matter?"

"Don't worry."

Chuck showed nothing unusual.

Mia nodded.

Just as Chuck was watching her, the phone rang.

It's Monica's.

"yes?"

"Chuck, come quickly, Joey is in the hospital."

Monica's anxious voice came from the phone.

"and then?"

Chuck asked calmly.

"..."

Monica hesitated: "Shouldn't you come over and take a look?"

"Ok."

Chuck didn't continue to ask questions and agreed.

over the phone.

New York Hospital.

in the ward.

Lying on the hospital bed, Joey looked at Monica eagerly: "How is it?"

"He promised to come."

Monica put away the phone and said with a helpless expression: "But don't expect him to help you, you have listened..."

"Does he know something?"

Phoebe grinned.

"Is that weird?"

Monica complained: "I don't need to say it at all, he is so amazing, he can guess any trouble."

"So it's not that he doesn't care about me."

The corner of Joey's mouth curled up, and he said optimistically, "That's good, that's good."

"It's all your fault!"

Monica stared at Joey and said, "It's not good for you to date, why do you have to ask Linda? She is 10 years older than you!"

"Age was never an issue."

Joey smiled and said, "Linda is at her most attractive now, okay?"

"But she's Peggy's mother!"

Monica sneered: "Don't forget where you are staying now? Why do you want to see Chuck!"

"..."

Joey froze with a smile. Looking at his left leg that was suspended in mid-air, he shuddered and said with a dry smile, "We just suspect that it is not, and it may not be Peggy. I feel more like an accident."

"Ha ha."

As Peggy's guardian, Monica has always been by Peggy's side, and has cooperated with Chuck so many times in scientific research. She has a long-term understanding of the mental state of a super genius. Regarding Joey's fluke mentality, she sneered and said: "You should be lucky that you can suspect her. I'm sure she reminded you on purpose, otherwise you wouldn't have to know who it is."

"She said she would bless us."

Joey said unconvinced.

"That was in front of her mother, Linda."

Monica reminded: "And be obedient, you only heard her say that, but didn't you see the look in your eyes when she said this to you?"

"I'm not bad either."

Joey was disgruntled.

"Not good enough!"

Phoebe laughed and said, "If you can be as good as Chuck, I don't think Peggy will have any objections at all!"

"It's not all my fault."

Joey looked at Monica: "If you hadn't let me meet Linda, I wouldn't have fallen in love with her."

"……My fault."

The corners of Monica's mouth twitched: "I never thought you would be with Linda, what is this?"

"When Chuck comes, you must help me."

Joey looked at Monica pitifully: "If it's really Peggy, only Chuck can help me."

"I try my best."

Monica said helplessly.

"Are you planning to cosplay Doctor House?"

Chandler walked in at this time, and when he saw Joey like this, he immediately teased: "Dr. Derek Lamory?"

"Hey! Great idea!"

Joey was still worried at first, but when he heard what Chandler said, he immediately turned up his qualities as a professional actor, and began to substitute Derek Laura, who is currently playing in the popular "Days of Our Lives" series, with bright eyes. The role of Dr. Murray is gone.

"Dr. House is a very charming person, and I think I can deflect Dr. Derek Lamory more in the direction of Dr. House.

That would definitely liven up the show.

Ok.

This is also very reasonable. Dr. Derek Lamory is a very good doctor himself. The only difference between him becoming Dr. House is a car accident.

A well-known doctor who was originally cheerful and personable became a patient after being hit by a car accident. After being tortured, he became a doctor with a weird personality... Very creative! "

While speaking, he was about to get up.

"what are you doing?"

Monica quickly held him down.

"I called the screenwriter and asked them to think about it."

Joey said excitedly: "I think the plot can be changed like this!"

"Don't worry!"

Monica said unhappily: "As long as you think about it, this role must be yours, because if you don't cultivate well, you will really be able to act in your true colors in the future, and you don't need to pretend to be lame at all."

"No one can compete with you for this role except Dr. House."

Chandler teased.

"Don't tell him!"

Joey was taken aback.

He has met Dr. House and knows that the other party likes this bubble medical drama. If he knows his brilliant idea, it is hard to say that the other party will not give up his career as a promising famous doctor and come to compete with him for this role. .

You know, everyone likes to act, and there are many actors who cross industries!
After everyone chatted for a long time.

Chuck pushed open the door and entered.

"Chuck!"

Everyone greeted one after another.

"How about it?"

Chuck glanced at Joey on the hospital bed.

"No problem."

Joey laughed.

Chuck looked at him silently.

"Don't you ask what's going on?"

Joey sneered.

"Is it important?"

Chuck asked blankly.

"..."

Joey smiled more and more embarrassed.

He was sure Chuck absolutely knew.

He was not surprised by this, and he didn't think that Chuck could be deceived by this at all, let alone that he really needed Chuck's advice and help now.

"It's not really my fault."

Joey said sincerely: "You believe me!"

"Yeah, it's all Peggy's mother, Linda, who is so beautiful."

Chandler said strangely, "Why do these words sound so familiar?"

"You better tell Chuck the truth."

Monica reminded.

"Hey!"

Joey immediately obediently agreed.

It turned out that because of Monica's relationship, Peggy's mother Linda came to see her daughter once, and happened to meet Joey who was looking for Monica.

Linda immediately recognized the famous Dr. Derek Lamorie!

After all, the role played by Joey is already the dream lover of many housewives who are addicted to soap operas.

Joey was fine at first.

But under Linda's enthusiastic inquiry, Joey, who was reserved for a while, began to look at Linda seriously.

Linda looks ordinary on the outside, but she is Peggy's mother after all, and she is quite attractive.

Joey became a little more enthusiastic.

Monica didn't think about it at all at the time. After all, she was 10 years younger than Peggy's mother, so she didn't warn Joey.

When Joey showed up at the apartment with Linda, Monica was stunned.

The first reaction was bad.

As expected, when Peggy heard the news, although she was very calm, she even had a sweet smile on her face.

But as Monica, who had a deeper understanding of Peggy, she immediately saw the turbulent undercurrent hidden under this sweet smile.

If Joey is a normal person, like Chandler... Rose... Well, Chandler and Rose are not normal people, it seems that there is really no normal person around her.

If yes, then that's fine too.

But Joey is a playboy, not qualitative at all, and now his career is on the rise again, and he is still a starlet.

More importantly, Peggy is still Peggy!
This is simply too terrible!
Monica has been worrying about this.

Then the 'accident' happened without any surprise, and Joey broke his leg and went to the hospital for no apparent reason.

With Monica's reminder, she recalled the way Peggy looked at him when Linda couldn't notice when she met Peggy in the past, and she finally came back to it.

It's just that it's a dilemma now.

"What do you think yourself?"

After hearing the story, Chuck asked calmly, "Are you planning to marry Linda, put your mind to rest, and live in peace?"

Joey immediately felt uncomfortable, looked at Chuck with a smirk, and waited for another choice.

But unfortunately, Chuck didn't speak again, just looked at him.

"Or, do you plan to put your heart away immediately, marry Linda and live in peace?"

Chandler immediately comprehended the ridicule, briefly adjusted Chuck's words, and repeated it, emphasizing his tone, tapping on the blackboard to mark the key points, safe and sound.

"I have no intention of getting married yet."

Joey immediately looked at Chuck begging for mercy: "Is there no other option?"

"what are you guys saying?"

At this moment, a female voice sounded from outside the ward.

Everyone looked over in unison, and saw Peggy's mother, Linda, walking in with a worried expression on her face: "Joy, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine..."

Joey's eyes couldn't help falling on Peggy who was following Linda.

"Chuck, you're here too."

Peggy only had Chuck in her eyes, and smiled sweetly.

Chuck nodded.

Joey winks at Chuck frequently.

Chuck didn't respond.

Peggy didn't look at Chuck anymore, but turned her attention to Joey, especially the left leg that was suspended, with a smile in her eyes.

But Joy, who has already discovered that Peggy is not an ordinary girl, can no longer appreciate the sweet smile of the young girl Peggy, and only feels a chill behind her back, and is even absent-minded about the intimate greetings from the mature woman Linda.

"Chuck, Peggy wants to ask you a math question, why don't we all go out?"

Monica could only smooth things over in the end: "The doctor said the patient needs more rest."

Everyone looked at Peggy in unison.

Peggy didn't speak, but still looked at Joey with a smile.

"Let's go."

Chuck was pulled a few times by Monica, and he felt that it was almost done, and he didn't bother to waste any more time here, so he nodded and looked at Peggy.

"Okay."

Peggy nodded with a smile.

Everyone went out, leaving only Linda with Joey.

Phoebe and the others walked away tactfully, leaving room for Chuck and the others.

Peggy looked at Monica who stayed until the end.

"I'm going to buy you a drink."

Monica also walked away.

"What are you busy with recently?"

Peggy said unhappy: "I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Something happened."

Chuck was succinct.

"Can you spare time now?"

Peggy smiled and said, "It seems that Dr. Derek Lamory's injury is quite valuable."

"what do you think?"

Chuck saw that Peggy meant to keep Joey hurt, and asked directly.

"I've told him all about it."

Peggy glanced in the direction of the ward: "As long as my mother is happy, I can do it... I have the confidence to do this.

But I promised you that I need your permission in advance, so I reminded him a little.

It now appears to be the right thing to do. "

Chuck understood what she meant.

If something happened to Joey this time and he didn't come, then Joey must not be Chuck's friend, and there is no need to continue to ask for Chuck's consent.

And now that Chuck is here, whether it's because of Monica or something else, it shows that Joey belongs to the category of friends that Chuck defined with her before.

Of course she can't do things as she wants.

"They broke up peacefully, can you accept it?"

Chuck asks the key question.

"That depends on the law of peace."

Peggy looked more seriously: "I don't want my mother to be sad anymore, especially for a man who is not worth it."

"can."

Chuck nodded: "I will tell him, I believe he has a way to do it, if not, as long as it is not irreversible, you can do whatever you want!"

"it is good!"

Peggy nodded sweetly, tilted her head and looked at Chuck: "What have you been up to lately?"

"They're all cases."

Chuck looked at her: "Aren't you busy too?"

"you know?"

Peggy's eyes lit up, and her smile became sweeter: "The person who played chess with me is not you, is it?"

As he said that, he shook his head: "No, the style of chess is not the same! She should be a girl like me! She is also a genius girl!"

"The one who can beat you is of course a super talented girl."

Chuck said.

"Do you know who she is?"

Peggy looked at Chuck: "Right?"

"You want to know?"

Chuck looked at her: "Didn't I hear that if you win her, you can know her identity?"

"You think I can't beat her?"

Peggy looked wrong.

"Did you win?"

Chuck said straightforwardly.

"..."

Peggy's eyes were sharp, her smile disappeared, she stared at Chuck firmly, and said word by word: "I will definitely win her!"

"I look forward to that day!"

Chuck said calmly.

This is the truth.

Because it was Anna who played chess with Peggy on the Internet. Ever since she knew that Peggy also had Adler blood, she was Anna's relative. Anna, who observed the world through Chuck's eyes, noticed Peggy, a relative of a genius girl.

Then the two became chess friends on the Internet.

Originally, this kind of game wouldn't arouse Peggy's interest too much, but it was Anna who played against her. Peggy didn't win a game because of Peggy's genius IQ surpassing that of Little Sheldon.

This immediately aroused Peggy's strong competitiveness.

Not to mention such a young Peggy, even Chuck, who has played with Anna for so many years, has never won!
That's right!

Chuck never beat Anna!

Even after Chuck used two drops of water of life and increased all attributes twice, he still hadn't defeated Anna once.

It can be said with certainty that in the field of IQ, Anna is the strongest Chuck has ever met.

In addition, playing chess is also a psychological test. Anna, who has almost no distractions, can be called a real supercomputer.

Or artificial intelligence version!
System wizard, worthy of the name.

He really expected that one day in the future, Peggy could beat Anna once with her ingenuity, and Anna would be very happy then.

Of course it doesn't matter if Peggy can't do it.

Because Chuck will definitely be able to do it later.
