F1 Champion's Perfect Crash: When Love Takes The Final Turn novel Chapter 132

I was taken aback, my eyes showing a hint of confusion. I instinctively refuted, "I don't know him."

Lukas felt that my reaction was a bit strange. "You denied it too quickly."

I regained my composure, "I only heard about him back in college. After all, he was quite famous on campus."

Lukas's eyes flickered, "Is that so?"

I remained silent.

I couldn't admit to Lukas that I had liked that person and was humiliated by his fiancee.

That was all in the past, and those things no longer had anything to do with me.

After a moment of silence, I placed the design original on Lukas's desk, "Mr. Strakovski, this is the design original for the Morning Light Jewelry Competition. I've completed it."

Lukas picked it up and glanced at it, "Not bad."

I thought of Natalia and suddenly didn't want to be too ruthless.

I asked Lukas, "Was Natalia arrested?"

Lukas frowned, "You sympathize with her?"

I could tell from his expression that he misunderstood me.

I shook my head, "I'm not that saintly. She harmed me, and I don't actually sympathize with her that much. I don't have that much-overflowing sympathy. It's just that, eliminating Natalia alone won't solve the issue if we can't catch the mastermind behind all of this."

Lukas's eyes flashed, "Natalia was fired. Whether she lives or dies, it has nothing to do with me. As for the mastermind, if you insist on believing in James, then I'll let you believe what you want. I'll continue my investigation."

I sincerely spoke, "Thank you, Mr. Strakovski."

Lukas snorted, "No need. Just stay away from James, that's enough."

I bit my lip, wanting to explain, but thinking of what happened at noon, I didn't know what to say.

Shortly after, I thought of Victoria's use of my father's letter to threaten me and had an instinct to tell Lukas.

After all, Victoria wanted Bella to enter Strakovski Jewelry, and this matter couldn't be hidden from Lukas.

However, as soon as I opened my mouth...

Lukas impatiently furrowed his brow, "Why are you just standing there waiting for me to get up and send you off?"

My breath hitched, I hesitated for a moment, then looked at Lukas, "Mr. Strakovski, I'll leave now."

After I left, Lukas stared at the office door, tore open a mint candy, threw it into his mouth, and a trace of annoyance flashed across his eyebrows.
