A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage novel Chapter 259

Reese had no idea what kind of trick Rose was playing, so she kept silent.

A faint distortion crossed Rose's face momentarily. She had clearly given that hint, yet Reese hadn't shown any interest in finding out what she meant.

Rose cleared her throat, "Designer Roberts, would you like to greet President Strakovski? He came with me."

Reese quickly withdrew her hands from the dryer.

Turning to face Rose, her expression turned sour, "You're on a date with President Strakovski?"

Rose had only wanted to show off in front of Reese, but she hadn't expected such a strong reaction.

Innocently, she blinked her eyes, "What's the matter? Is there a problem?"

Reese stared at Rose for several seconds, then shook her head, "No problem. I'm leaving."

With that, she turned and left the private room.

In her heart, she told herself that Rose was probably trying to flaunt her relationship. During the jewelry customization earlier, Rose had deliberately shown off, making ambiguous statements as if there was something between her and Lukas.

But hadn't Lukas solemnly declared that he had nothing with Rose?

Reese still believed in Lukas's integrity.

As she thought this, her gaze suddenly caught sight of a partially open private room door. Facing the door was Lukas, lounging lazily in his chair, cigarette in hand, his expression cool.

Reese's heart sank instantly.

No one was speaking inside the private room, and with the door slightly ajar, Reese could only see Lukas seated, with empty chairs on both sides.

Words couldn't describe the emotions swirling inside Reese at that moment.

Could it be that he had lied to her, and he was indeed on a date with Rose today?

Even at this point, Reese refused to believe that Lukas's words about having no involvement with Rose were just a lie.

Lukas hadn't eaten much either. Director Garret, seated a distance away from him, nudged Rose, "Go, quickly toast President Strakovski. Why are you just standing there?"

Rose nodded, softly smiling at Lukas before getting up to raise a toast.

She specially showed off in front of Reese just a while ago, implying that she was on a date with Lukas.

It was because she was sure that Reese would not know the truth.

After all, the company's employees were afraid of their bosses, so they would not take the initiative to gossip about Lukas.

When Reese peeked into the room, Director Garret and the producer were sitting too far away from Lukas, and there was only a gap in the door, so she could not see the scene in the room clearly.

Today, the dinner was hosted by the production team of Rose's new drama. The purpose was to boost Rose's image and convince Lukas to invest in the series.

With the previous rumors between Rose and Lukas, both Director Garret and the producers assumed there was at least an ambiguous relationship between them.
