NovelEnglishJames hides Reese even more. He glanced at Lukas with disdain and snorted coldly.
Reese lowered her head while she stood behind James; no one knows what she was thinking at this moment.
But in Luka's eyes, this scene suddenly meant that Reese regarded James as a safe haven.
His face instantly turned ugly and sullen, and his chest heaved slightly.
At this time, someone kept pushing towards the door of the room.
The person in charge of the hotel looked at everyone apologetically, but his voice sounded solemn and distinct:
"You can't enter the crscene now. We have already called the police. The police will not allow the scene to be
destroyed. Everyone, please be mindful and do not cause any trouble!"
When everyone heard this, they knew that the police would csooner, so they stopped crowding and just
looked around curiously.

When the crowd move out just now, someone bumped into Reese.
James stretched out his hands directly, protecting Reese by enclosing her in his arms and the wall.
Such behavior is obviously a bit ambiguous.
But Reese still looked depressed; she kept lowering her head and seemed to be engrossed in thinking about
something all this while, and she didn't notice everyone's movements around her, including James.
Lukas looked at this scene and felt even more furious. He couldn't help but explode in anger. He walked over
directly, pulled James away from her, stretched out his hand to hold Reese's shoulders, and said in a gritted tone,
"Reese, you follow me. Come, | have something to tell you!"
James was stunned by the sudden pull, and he felt angry. He directly grabbed Lukas's wrist that was pinching
Reese's shoulder and said, "Let her go!"
Lukas looked at James coldly with a sullen face and said in a fierce tone, "James, | have been tolerating you for a
long tnow!"
James sneered with an evil expression on his face and said, "Really? That's just right; | have endured you for a
long tas well!"
The two were at odds; it seemed like their swords were on the verge of breaking out, as if they were about to
fight, and they were still at the scene of a murder case like this.
Reese hurriedly interrupted them: "Don't do this!"
"Don't do what!"
Lukas and James both spoke at the stime, but the other one looked fierce and angry, while the other one
had a mischievous smile on his face, as if he were not afraid of anything.
Reese frowned: "James, wait here, I'll talk to Mr. Strakovski first!"

When James heard Reese's words, his face becunhappy, but even so, he did not refute Reese.
Apart from his mother, Reese was the first person who dared to cforward to save him in such a dangerous
situation. She was different from the other women, and James respected her.
He looked at Lukas and snorted coldly: "Remember, I'm doing it for Lia's sake! | don't want to argue with you!"
But Lukas didn't even give him a look; he directly took Reese's arm, pushed away the crowd, and walked to the
other side of the corridor, where no one was there.
Reese lowered her voice: "What on earth are you going to say? In this situation, | will still have to cooperate with
the investigation later. We can't leave on the scene!"
With a sullen face, Lukas looked straight at Reese and said in a sour tone, "What's the relationship between you
and James?"
Reese was a little puzzled: "It's just purely a friendship!"
"A friend, I'm not blind, Reese; why does he protect you so much? " Lukas attitude was getting a little aggressive.
As those words fell, he saw Reese's expression beca little ugly, and he immediately realized that Reese was
angry when he uttered those words.
