Mariel and Reese lived in a double hospital room, with no one on the other bed. Mariel boldly occupied it.
Mariel answered the inexplicable phone call, just as she was beginning to feel sleepy and about to enter dreamland.
Suddenly, there was a knocking on the door.
Mariel was so angry that her lungs hurt. She just wanted to curse!
Her emotions had reached the brink of explosion.
She got out of bed in anger, rushed to the hospital room door, and pulled it open.
Lukas heard the woman's voice, which was similar to the voice on the phone. He calmly asked, "Is Reese in this ward?"
Mariel recognized Lukas's voice and who he was. She cursed directly: "Are you crazy! Why are you knocking on the door in the middle of the night?"
Lukas ignored her anger and calmly said, "If she's not sick, she wouldn't be in the hospital. Please step aside, I came to see Reese!"
Reese had trouble sleeping before, so the doctor gave her sedatives at night. Otherwise, she wouldn't have slept so deeply.
Mariel glared at Lukas with fiery eyes, wanting to curse him, but also wanting to curse herself: "I'm too kind-hearted, otherwise I wouldn't have stayed to take care of Reese!"
Lukas's tone was flat and he said: "Go to the Fiveone Hotel across the street, mention my name and you can check in directly. I will call the hotel front desk. Thank you for taking care of Reese. I'll take it from here!"
Mariel had never seen anyone like Reese before!
She was so angry she felt dizzy: "If you want me to go, I'll go. Have I never stayed in a hotel before? Who do you think you are? Why should I go just because you tell me to? What's your relationship with Reese and what qualifies you to take care of her? Who needs your thanks!"
When Mariel said this, she only thought that Reese was Lukas's employee and his companion at the banquet!
That's it!
When Lukas heard this, his face immediately darkened: "Who did it? You still haven't found out after all this time?"
Lukas never thought that Reese's accident was somehow related to him!
Martins pondered for a moment and said, "We found out this time. The reason we didn't find out before was that we didn't find out the other party's social connections. This time, we found out that the other party's social connections were not outside, but inside the prison!"
Lukas's expression became ugly: "What does that mean?"
Martins continued: "The man who hit Miss Roberts with his car this time was in a relationship with the person who hit you with his car last time. They were lovers when they were in prison. I didn't know how they were caught by Steven King after they escaped from prison!"
"Steven King only wanted to take revenge on you and Miss Roberts. He did things very neatly, so he erased all traces of contact with those two. But this time, that man left a suicide note, and I found it before Steven King did, which helped me find some clues!"
Lukas's entire body was filled with a sinister aura, as if he was about to kill: "Did Steven King do it?
