After Selina left, Thomas locked the door himself. He turned around and said, "Luke, you're very smart. You must've guessed that Tony Stark is behind the offer."
He paused for a moment, before he continued, "On the other hand, I have some bad news. Somebody on the Wolfkyle case noticed something, and has started to investigate you. It'll be very easy for them to set you up. After all, they have a lot of local connections."
Luke thought for a moment and immediately knew what this was about.
Thomas had told him something about Charlie Diaz, the host of the game, before. Above all else, he was without doubt someone who was very rich.
It really was possible to do anything in America if you had enough money -- as long as you didn't piss off someone else with even more money.
If Luke and Selina stayed here, the families of the players would come looking for trouble sooner or later.
