Novel1Reese raised her head and noticed that Lukas was done with the phone call.
He looked at her faintly, as if he were thinking about sserious issue.
Reese was about to speak, when her cell phone rang as well.
Seeing Luther's call, Reese hesitated for a second and finally answered the call.
After answering the call, before she could speak, Luther's worried voice sounded hurriedly: "Lia, are you okay? |
heard that someone died at the Mountain Top Hot Spring Hotel. | know you were there too, and | was so worried!"
Reese's eyes flashed, and just as she was about to stand up, she heard Lukas say, "Sit down!"
Reese froze in place and looked at him with a troubled expression.
Lukas thought that Reese didn't seem to have heard his words, so he
commanded again, "Answer it in front of me!"

Reese was stunned, but considering that someone was injured, she didn't argue with him.
After all, it doesn't matter where the call is being answered.
Luther heard someone talking on the other end of the line and couldn't help but inquire: "Lia, is there someone
over there?"
Reese looked serious and said calmly, "Well, it's my colleague. Didn't I reply to your message just now? I'm really
fine. You should go to bed early; I'm going to sleep too!"
On the other end of the phone, Luther went silent for a long time.
Earlier, Reese had said on the message that she had gone halready, and now she said that there was a
colleague next to her.
He clearly heard that the person speaking was a man. Could it be that a male colleague was at her home?
Luther's mood turned gloomy, but he could also tell that Reese didn't want to continue talking with him at this
moment.
Still, he was able to confirm that she was indeed fine, so his call wasn't in vain at all.
He hid his disheartened feelings and said, "Okay, I'll hang up now. Go to bed early then. Good night!"
When Reese hung up the phone call, she saw Lukas staring straight at her with his impenetrable look.
Reese blurted out subconsciously, "A senior heard about the incident at the mountain and calledto inquire if
| was okay!"
When she realized what she had just said, she immediately regretted it. Why did she have to explain it? It made
it look like she had a guilty conscience.
Lukas looked at her with a vague look, and his voice was a little cold. "Really?" Reese pursed her lips. "He really
just called to ask about the situation!"
Lukas seemed very unhappy. He suddenly stretched out his unharmed left hand and said," Handyour

Reese was a little dumbfounded. "Huh?"
Lukas emphasized his words and looked at Reese expressionlessly: "Aren't you talking to me? A call or a
message may cin later. Will you just answer the call and the message, or will you talk to me? Leave your
phone here withand I'll keep it for you!"
Reese looked at the man's face intently. To be honest, if he hadn't been injured, she would've cursed him by now.
She can't deny the fact that she liked Lukas, but she also can't deny that this man had a terrible personality and
was extremely domineering and arrogant!
However, no matter how resentful she was, she just hid it in her heart; in reality, she still obediently gave her
phone to Lukas.
She just begrudgingly comforted herself, thinking that she just didn't want to make the injured person angry.
Lukas got her phone, took a glance at it, and put it directly on the coffee table in front of him.
Then, he glanced at Reese and said in a lukewarm tone: "So, I'm your colleague? Huh?"
