Lukas froze for a moment, his expression changing slightly as he instantly thought of the scene where Anthony
and Reese were chatting and laughing together. He remained silent, his whole being feeling uncomfortable.
Thinking of the two of them together made him feel uneasy.
Cole thought that Lukas didn't know who Anthony was, so he explained, "I heard he is the director of the Rivers
Health Medical Center. He also provided evidence for Alexa's fake suicide. Have you heard of him, Mr.
Strakovski?"
Lukas's face turned ashen, and his tone was very bad, "I know now. Don't tell Reese that | offered to provide
clients for her."
After saying this, Lukas hung up the phone directly.
He had never experienced such a situation before, feeling like he was offering someone kindness and getting
coldness in return.
In the afternoon after work, Reese went to the hospital to see Ava.
As a result, she met Lukas in the hospital parking lot.
They looked at each other, and Lukas instantly remembered that Anthony went to her in order to customize the
jewelry in the morning. He immediately averted his gaze and walked towards the elevator.
Reese pouted but didn't look at him either.
Inside the elevator, they both treated each other as if they were air.
When the elevator arrived, they walked out one after the other.
Reese walked behind Lukas but was blocked by him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was about to step over Lukas to go to Ava's ward.
But before she could pass him, she heard a sweet and familiar voice saying, "Lukas, you're here."
Following that, Reese caught a glimpse of a figure walking towards Lukas, reaching out to hold his arm.
Reese raised an eyebrow slightly. It was Gerald's cousin, Elena.
Lukas had initially wanted to avoid her, but somehow, he remembered the affectionate scenes between

Chapter 78
Reese, Cole, and Anthony in the past couple of days.
His movements stiffened slightly, and he didn't manage to evade, so Elena held his arm.
Reese felt somewhat surprised. When Elena cwith Gerald to apologize before, she also noticed
Lukas's cold and distant attitude towards Elena.
She didn't expect a complete 180-degree change today.
Indeed, the heart of a man is hard to understand, and Reese couldn't figure it out.
Elena stole a glance at Lukas, hiding the admiration and infatuation in her eyes, her heart bubbling with pink
bubbles.
Every tshe used to approach him, Lukas would always avoid her. Today, he allowed her to hold his
arm, and she didn't know what to say in excitement.
All her attention was on Lukas, and they walked together towards the hospital room, completely
oblivious to Reese behind them.
Her voice was dripping with sweetness, "I just heard that Elias is in the hospital, so | rushed over to see
him. I didn't expect you to be here too."
Reese couldn't help but roll her eyes. It was obvious that Elena cfor Lukas.
Lukas seemed as if he didn't notice Reese behind him and whispered to Elena, "You're too thoughtful."
Elena immediately covered her mouth, pouting playfully, "Don't say that, Elian is my family."
Lukas couldn't keep up the act and responded with a nonchalant "Hmm."
Reese felt a bit overwhelmed by the scene. She shook her head and hurried to Ava's hospital room. She couldn't
stand it anymore.
Lukas probably didn't know that while he was trying to act, Reese was thinking like this. He'd probably be quite
frustrated if he knew.
When Reese entered Ava's hospital room, Ava stretched her neck to look outside.
But when she saw no one else coming in after Reese, her face fell.
Reese looked at her impatiently, "What are you looking at? | cto see you. Aren't you satisfied?"
Ava looked dejected, "Did Cole not come?"
Reese frowned at her and sighed helplessly, "He just cback from a business trip and has a lot of work

to catch up on, so he's working overtime."
Upon hearing this, Ava's expression improved a little, "He must be working very hard."
Reese couldn't help but feel annoyed, "Can you have sself-respect? Now that you've found him, you act as if
you don't have anyone else in your eyes."
She finished speaking but still felt unhappy, "Besides, I've also worked hard. | cto see you right after work.
Why don't you mention that?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAva looked apologetic, "Then don't ctomorrow. My injury is not a big problem, and I'll be discharged
in a couple of days."
Reese felt her heart sink. That wasn't what she meant?
"What do you want to eat? I'll order it for you." Reese didn't want to waste any more twith this stubborn girl.
Ava blinked her eyes and looked at her, "I heard from Cole that there's an old and authentic porridge shop at the
hospital entrance, very suitable for patients."
Reese stared at Ava for a while. "I see you're not interested in porridge. You just want to eat what Cole
mentioned, right?"
A rare hint of embarrassment appeared on Ava's usually cold face. "You know." Reese almost coughed out blood,
"Fine, you win. Since it's not far away, I'll go and buy it for you. Anyway, | won't have tto ctomorrow."
Tomorrow, Reese had to attend the plagiarism case as the plaintiff and would have to appear in court.
Besides, Ella and Anthony's custom-made jewelry had already started production, so she had to keep an eye on
it. Otherwise, if anything went wrong, it would be troublesto redo it.
Reese left to buy dinner.
In Elias's hospital room, Lukas was finding it hard to tolerate Elena's clinginess.
However, he didn't want to lose his temper in front of Elias.
At that moment, his phone rang.
