A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage novel Chapter 154

Reese was already inclined to believe most of it, but she was still talking tough. "He's not a deity, how could he have known all these things and the consequences that would result? unless you think that Ella's pregnancy and miscarriage, and her being violated, was also his doing." She said.

Reese almost instinctively defends Lukas.

Even in the light of the possibility that Lukas Strakovski is indeed involved with all of this, she was still leaning toward Lukas in front of Anthony.

Anthony sighed helplessly, "This is where I think he's great, those three people ended up in a tragic situation, however, Lukas didn't do anything illegal., Ella's matter was Alexa’s doing, and given Alexa’s current situation, she deserved it. Reese, what I’m saying is that Lukas is truly terrifying, and you'd better keep your distance from him!"

Upon hearing this, Ava subconsciously glanced at Reese.

Reese pursed her lips and looked at Anthony: "Dr. Rivers, these things are just your guesses. You can't convict someone based on one-sided claims." She exclaimed.

Anthony could see that Reese was unwilling to believe his words.

He smiled bitterly. "Well, this is just my suggestion. What you decide to do depends on what you truly think. Speaking frankly, in the eyes of doctors like us, there's no clear distinction between good and bad people. We're here to save lives and help the injured, even if it's for the most heinous murderers." He said.

Anthony stared at Reese. "If he gets injured in prison, we'll do our best to save him. If someone truly commits a crime, the law will punish them. Even though I lack evidence, it’s completely impossible for Lukas to be disassociated from this. I'm only saying all this today because I see you as a friend." He added.

Reese glanced at Anthony and said, "Dr. Rivers, you are a good person."

Anthony laughed bitterly. He didn't expect that after all his investigations, Reese would still consider him a good person.

The things that Reese encountered today were just a little too much, and her heart was a little overwhelmed.

She said to Anthony, "Dr. Rivers, it's getting late, Ava and I will leave now, so I won't bother you."

Anthony looked at Reese with a complicated expression and nodded.

As soon as they were out of the doctor's office, Ava looked at Reese. "Do you really believe that these things have nothing to do with Lukas?" She asked.

Reese's expression couldn't be seen as any emotion. "Whether it has anything to do with it or not, I can't distance myself from him now. After all, we're still registered under the same household." She said.

She paused and looked at Ava. "Moreover, Anthony’s statements are all based on his speculations. What's more, is that the things he found out about him don’t amount enough to any criminal behavior. Lukas hasn't committed murder or any illegal acts.” She added.

Ava's cool face remained devoid of much expression. "I respect your decision. If you believe in him, that's fine." She said.

At this time, Martins's voice rang out in the hallway. "Ms. Roberts…"

Reese raised her eyes to look and saw Lukas, his face expressionless as he walked together with Martins.

When Lukas saw the wound on Reese's forehead, he walked over with large strides.

He stood in front of Reese, appearing composed without a trace of the panic from before. "You had an accident. Why didn't you call me?" He asked.

Reese pressed her lips together, "I left my phone in the car. The car was rear-ended and the towing company took it away." She said.

Reese looked at Martins curiously, "What did you both think?" She asked, ignoring what Lukas had just said.

Lukas’s expression was serious as he stared at Martins.

Martins looked at Reese and then at Lukas and opened his mouth, "Mr. Strakovski…"

He had wanted to tell Reese that Lukas was really quite concerned about her, but his own Mr. Strakovski didn't seem to want him to say anything at all.

"You're still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to send you off?" Lukas looked uneasy and his tone was indifferent as he spoke.

Martins gulped, "All right then, I'll leave."

Once Martins left, the atmosphere was weird.

Reese tugged Ava’s hand and was about to leave with Lukas when the door to the doctor's office suddenly opened.

“Oh, Reese! You’re still here?” Anthony exclaimed, surprised. He didn't expect that Reese hadn't left yet.

Hearing the voice, Reese and Lukas turned around at the same time.

The moment Anthony saw Lukas, his expression changed slightly.
