Reese's attitude made Lukas panic in his heart. He couldn't help but tug on his tie. "I know you have to take care
of Ava. After work in the afternoon, I'll pick you up from the hospital!"
Reese Roberts shook her head, "No need, Mr. Strakovski, I'm not going back tonight. | plan to stay with her in the
hospital. I'm worried about Ava alone!"
In the near future, she just wanted to try to keep a distance from Lukas so that their relationship would cool
down.
Lukas's brows twitched slightly. His hand was holding the phone a little harder.
If it weren't for Reese's bad mood because of what happened to Ava today, he would have dropped his phone.
Besides Reese, who else would dare to treat him like this?!
Lukas is undoubtedly a golden boy, having never experienced any kind of snub, and is treated by others with
such indifference as if he were insignificant.

He also becangry and said coldly, "As you like!"
After Lukas finished speaking, he hung up the phone and tugged on his tie again. He lit a cigarette and walked
towards Elias Schmidt.
Elias raised his eyebrows and looked at him. He clicked his tongue and said playfully, "Isn't mint candy delicious?
Why did you smoke again? Did Reese mess with you again?"
Lukas looked at him coldly. "Don't talk nonsense, what exactly do you have to do with me? What did you mean
on the phone just now?"
Elias put aside his joking demeanor and recounted to Lukas the events leading up to Mariel's remarks: "What
could Molly possibly want? She has been in Strakovski for years, but Reese only just arrived. It seems unlikely
that she would harbor such intense animosity towards her so quickly, to the point of wanting to take her life!"
Lukas's face was dripping with sweat. He did not answer Elias's question, but instead asked, "She was not injured
today, right?"
Elias was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "She is fine, not got injured."
Lukas snorted coldly and exhaled a ring of smoke. His expression was a little confused in the smoke.
Elias raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Say something, what do you think of this matter? It's a shthat
I'm so serious about telling you that your attitude is different from what | think!"
Lukas naturally knew that Chloe Preston's vicious thoughts must be a big deal and must be investigated.
However, what he cared more about was Reese's attitude towards him.
What was wrong with her? Why did he suddenly becso cold?
Elias was speechless when he saw Lukas's expression, "If you don't want to talk about this, I'll leave!"
Lukas looked at the hospital building opposite the inpatient department and frowned, "Speak, I'm listening!"
Elias stared at Lukas and couldn't help but spit out the fragrance: "Good lord, | too am anxious for you, why do
you not feel a single ounce of anxiety? Your attitude really wantsto hit people!"
Lukas looked at him lazily, then narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrows, "I'm the emperor?"

Elias was stunned. Thinking of what he had just said, he suddenly becangry: "No, you are the eunuch!"
Lukas looked at him meaningfully and said coldly, "Are you sure!"
Elias was choking on him. He looked coldly at him. He couldn't help frowning: "Let's get back to business, what
are you thinking? What are you going to do?"
Lukas flicked the cigarette and ignored Elias's aggrieved face. "That Chloe Preston, I'll have someone check her
background!"
Elias nodded and said in a serious tone: "Not only the background but also the recent account funds and
interpersonal relationships. You know, logically speaking, Cole Hopkins is her boyfriend, and Ava likes Cole. She
doesn't want to see her, and she doesn't even want to see Ava! But look, when she dealt with Ava, she was
blatantly hitting people! "
As Elias spoke, he changed the topic: "But for Reese, she secretly wanted to put someone to death at once. What
a deep hatred and hatred for her to cup with such a vicious method. What puzzledthe most. Yes, she
has only known Reese for how long, and she just wants to kill Reese like this. It is understood that she and Reese
should not have any deep hatred, so | guess, someone might have paid her to do this!"
