A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage novel Chapter 198

Reese choked, could she refuse?

Lukas looked at Reese unwaveringly, but did not speak.

He had lost his temper that night and didn't appear in front of Reese not until this time.

He surely understand now that he cared for her very much. But Reese was only willing to listen and talk to him because she simply remembers him as her life-saving grace.

Because, in her heart, they were just in a relationship agreement since the beginning.

Lukas was very irritable. This was what he wanted at the beginning, but now he doesn't seem to agree to it anymore.

Whenever he saw Reese, he felt irritable, because of her indifferent attitude towards him that made him uncomfortable, and he wanted to find a place to vent his emotions.

However, when he couldn't see Reese, he began to miss her.

Thinking of all the warnings he had given to Reese at the beginning, Lukas finally understood what it feels like to be shooting himself in the foot with his own stone.

Not seeing each other for two days, Lukas looked at Reese at this moment, and his mood seemed to have calmed down.

Reese didn't notice his abnormality, she thought about it seriously, and said sincerely, "I'm going to the alumni reunion tonight, if I'll send you to work, I won't be able to send you back tonight"

"You've talked a lot already, just say if you don't want to send me!"

Reese shook her head quickly, "No, I'm telling the truth!"

Lukas snorted coldly, and said in a stiff voice, "You only need to send me to work! Don't worry about sending me back home!"

Reese's expression was still a little hesitant.

Lukas face turned a little ugly. Many people were very eager to serve him either way, but he only wanted her to do it.

He had never been so eager to get close to a person.

His feelings and self-esteem are constantly competing in his heart.

He looked at Reese seriously, and had no choice but to use his big favor, "I have a back injury, what if I pulled the wound while driving!"

Reese's face changed slightly, and she immediately looked at him with a worried expression, "I'll see you off, and when you get off work at night, I'll send you back first, and then go to the alumni reunion after that!"

Lukas's mood was extremely sour earlier, but when Reese is finally willing to send him to work, his mood turned 180 degrees again.

It's a pity that she's only willing because she felt guilty, just because he was hurt because of her.

Sitting in Reese's car, Lukas was in a bittersweet mood. People who have never liked someone before wouldn't probably understood this kind of contradictory feeling.

Lukas knew clearly, that he could force Reese to get a marriage certificate with him, or force not to divorce him, but he couldn't force her to fall in love with him from the bottom of her heart.

Reese started the car. He was sitting in the passenger seat with a gloomy expression, and no one knows what he was thinking.

Reese took the initiative to ask him, "Is the wound better?"

Lukas glanced at her, and said vaguely, "You will know later."

Reese had no idea what Lukas's words meant.

It wasn't until they arrived at the company that she saw a notice from the company's ad board about Victoria William's dismissal. She guessed that the allergy incident should have something to do with her.

Come to think of it, Director Hopkins returned to Switzerland City in advance to deal with this matter.

The fact that Lukas was able to make such a big fuss and expel her, meant that he wanted to exclude her from the jewelry industry as well.

Unless someone wanted to offend Lukas, no one would hire Victoria anymore.

It is widely known, when Strakovski Jewelry fired a certain person, unless everyone didn't want a place in the Century Jewelry Competition, they wouldn't think twice of hiring her again.

Reese didn't know why, but then she remembered Victoria's meaningful expression when they were eating at Butterfly Pavilion. At that time Victoria learned that she was allergic to seafood, and her refusal to participate in the Heart of the Sea Jewelry Contest, probably because of her alibi.

However, she didn't expect that Lukas would easily find out that she had been devising that incident for so long.

During lunch, Cole told Reese the truth, " Victoria has a distant cousin that worked in the back kitchen at the hotel that we booked over there. That's how he was able to tamper the porridge and added seafood on it. I had a breakfast with Chloe before together with Victoria. After dining with Chloe twice at that, Victoria knows already that Chloe had a little habit of eating porridge whenever she's eating with someone. That's how Victoria was able to tamper that porridge.

Reese suddenly realized it, to be honest, after such a long time of working together with the series of projects, she never thought of eating together with Chloe either.

At the same time, Lukas, who was eating in his office, received a call from abroad.

"Lukas, how can you go too far!" Emily Scholl's angry and suppressed voice came from the other side.
