NovelEnglishReese's expression clearly displayed her doubts.
If it didn't work out at first, how could he be so close to Rona?
You know, Lukas Strakovski is not an ordinary person. He has always been cold and indifferent towards others, let
alone letting a woman follow him all the time, and he even took pictures of her!
As soon as Lukas saw Reese's expression, he had already guessed what was on her mind at this moment.
He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: "Stop overthinking; things aren't how they are the way you
see them! Rona and | are innocent, but you, who was so troubled about Rona and that lipstick that Rose left on
my car before, if others didn't know the truth, they may probably think you liked me!"
When Reese heard his last sentence, her already relaxed nerves immediately bectense again.
When she thought about how Lukas strongly denied his feelings towards her in the private suite earlier.
She glanced at Lukas evasively and started to pretend to be stupid: "What nonsense are you talking about?
I...Il...didn't | say it before? | am your contractual wife. If someone shows up, of course | would really feel
uncomfortable; | don't want any third party while we are still in this marriage!"

Hearing this, disappointment was clearly written on Lukas's face. He raised his eyelids, glanced at Reese, and
asked, "Really?"
Reese also nodded seriously: "Of course!"
Seeing her like this, Lukas suddenly thought of Clark's words that day in the local bar. He said that Reese had a
senior whom she had liked since before.
She had been liking that senior for a long time; how can she likenow? Lukas thought begrudgingly to himself.
Thinking of this, Lukas's mood suddenly turned extremely unpleasant!
His tone beccold as well: "Then you can rest assured, Rona and | really have nothing to do with each other!"
Seeing Lukas's weather-like moods-cloudy and uncertain-Reese felt unhappy again. She was tired of
understanding this ancestor's moods!
However, thinking of his wounded hand, she felt really distressed and thought that no matter what his mood was
like, she had to compromise tactfully and make him feel comfortable.
Out of the blue, Lukas's cell phone rang suddenly.
Lukas glanced at the caller ID and answered it.
"Hey, brother, why are you calling so late? What's the matter? " Lukas's voice sounded low but had a clear
texture.
Luther asked him, "I heard about the incident at the Mountain Top Hot Spring Hotel; are you okay?"
Lukas replied, "I'm okay; what's wrong?"
Luther's voice was a little hesitant but he still asked, "It's... nothing; | just want to ask you, how are the people in
your company? Are they all right?"
Lukas frowned slightly, and his voice was a little heavy: "A designer named Molly Richmond died. The police are
already investigating regarding this matter. The others are fine!"
Lukas clearly heard Luther's relief sigh after he said those words.
His eyes flickered. "Have you arranged for someone to deal with the matters in the hotel, brother?"
Luther hummed and said, "I've already sent someone to handle it. | heard that Molly's family went to cause
trouble. | will ask someone from the hotel to cforward to negotiate the compensation. But, it's your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompany's matter now, and I'm afraid this won't be resolved so easily. After all, Molly had an accident during the
team building!"
Lukas frowned and said: "You don't have to worry about this matter; | will send someone to handle it! | will
definitely compensate what's needed. However, Molly was involved in a murder case and was killed by mistake.
If these family members wanted to put the responsibility on my company, then they can't blme for being
rude!"
Luther smiled and nodded: "Well, | believe in you; this matter is still not that difficult for you to solve!"
While the two brothers were talking on the phone, Reese took out her phone as well and took a look at it. Only
then did she realize that her phone was muted and that Luther had made dozens of missed calls and sent a lot of
messages.
He probably called while | was driving. Reese thought to herself.
Reese didn't call back, but just replied to his Whatmessages.
Reese: [Brother Luther, don't worry, | wasn't implicated in the incident. I'm back hnow; you don't have to
worry aboutanymore! ]
Reese: [Thank you, go to bed early!]
