Ella wasn't angry either. After she lost her hand her family, there were many things that she had already
understood.
This bit of hypocrisy and dislike from Elena was really nothing to her.
She stared at Elena expressionlessly. "Elena, you like Lukas, right? Tell me, what will Lukas do to you if | tell him
that during the Rivers family dinner party, you borrowed a knife to kill someone and usedto deal with
Reese?" She said.
Elena's face instantly changed. "It was you who wanted to deal with Reese because Anthony liked her, what does
it have to do with me?" She said, still looking at Ella with disgust.
Ella laughed, and her smile made Elena shudder. "Is that so? Then | would like to give it a try. Whether Lukas will
believe my words or not, | have nothing to lose anyway, so I'm not afraid of anything, Elena."
Elena's face changed again and again, she finally glared viciously at Ella: "Okay, fine, I'll help you. But I'll only
help you this time." She said.
Ella put away her scary smile. "That's enough for me."
Elena was angry and aggrieved. "Don't cnearagain in the future!" She yelled.
Ella sneered at her remark. "My phone number hasn't changed, having someone givethe car and the
message is enough." She said, completely ignoring Elena's outburst.
After Ella finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Her family was broken, she was ruined, and the child was aborted. With all of this, she was going to make those
two people pay a terrible price.
Lunch at noon.
Elena had previously said that she wanted to talk to Reese about the custom- made jewelry she wants to
commission.
But the encounter with Ella shook her to the core. As a result, during the meal, she frequently wandered off,
always absent-minded.

After dinner, Elena left, but Elias pestered Ava and was unwilling to leave.
They ate near the company and walked back after eating.
Elias didn't have the slightest intention to leave. He looked at Lukas. "How could you do this to me, Lukas? Avy is
working in your company, and you didn't even tellabout it." He whined.
Lukas had a disgusted look on his face, "I didn't know she was working at my company."
Ava was in Strakovski's Information Technology Department. Martins knew, but he didn't feel that a small
employee would also have to report to Lukas.
Lukas only realized today that Ava was also in Strakovski.
Elias pursed his lips and stared at Lin Xi with a pair of passionate eyes. "Avy, is Strakovski Jewelry fun? If it's not
fun, you can always cto my company. | will welcyou with open arms!" He exclaimed.
Ava looked at him incredulously as if he grew another pair of heads above his shoulders.
She ignored Elias and accelerated her steps.
Elias, however, was not rubbed by it at all and playfully followed her.
Reese and Lukas walked in the back at a slow pace. Lukas knew that her ankle was still in pain, which is why she
is not walking fast.
Seeing that they were about to arrive at the company, Lukas opened his mouth. "Does your foot still hurt?" He
asked.
Reese glanced at Lukas: "It doesn't hurt anymore, thank you for your concern, Mr. Strakovski." She said.
Lukas choked, his handsface was a bit dark, uncomfortable hearing her use such a respectful tone.
After all, he wanted to keep a distance between them and maintain a name-only relationship.
Why is Reese now like this? He couldn't help but feel displeased.
Humans truly are contradictory creatures.
Lukas was sulking in his heart, and after taking two steps, he suddenly thought of the phone call that Ricardo
had given him in the morning.
He glanced at Reese and hesitated. Should he give her the letter to let her know the truth?
According to the investigation, Ricardo was not Reese's biological father. By telling Reese about this, she might
realize why Ricardo had treated her so poorly in the past.
However, at the stime, Reese will also get to know that Gemma is not her real mother.
Lukas found out that Gemma treated Reese very well, and Reese would definitely feel awfully bad if she knew
about this.
Lukas did not realize that he would actually pay attention to a person's likes and dislikes.
Gemma's letter to Reese could make her let go of sthings, but it could also make her sad and upset.
Lukas was conflicted in his heart.
He stared at the back of Reese's head and suddenly spoke, "Reese..."
Reese's footsteps paused, and she turned around expressionlessly to look at him, "Mr. Strakovski." She said,
acknowledging him.
Lukas stared at her cold little face and opened his mouth to ask: "Have you ever hated Ricardo for treating you
so poorly?"
Reese stiffened, she lowered her eyes, not wanting Lukas to see her true emotions.
"I hated him." She said.
Especially when she knew that her mother's letter was fake, she wished that she could kill Ricardo.
She no longer sees that man as her real father.
After all. there was no father in the world who treated their child like that.

Lukas's mood was a bit heavy. "Then, how do you feel about your mother? What kind of emotions do you have
towards her?"
Reese looked up sharply at Lukas. "Why are you askingabout this, Mr. Strakovski?" She said. Every fiber of
her being is questioning the man that is with her right now. It's very much unlike him to pry on her past
experiences.
Lukas seemed a bit uneasy and turned his gaze away, eyes flickering, "It's nothing, just a casual question. After
all, despite Ricardo treating you so badly, you haven't developed a vengeful personality. Your childhood should
not have been too bad. So, I'm curious, what kind of person is your mother, and what are your feelings towards
her?" He said.
Reese stared at Lukas for a few seconds, "Mr. Strakovski, why are you curious about these things? It's very much
unlike you." She said.
Lukas began to feel a little guilty. "Is that so? | was just asking casually. If you don't want to talk about it, then
forget it."
Reese thought of her mother, her eyes were a little nostalgic. "There's nothing inconvenient to talk about.
However, no matter how many words | use, they cannot fully describe our relationship. She was very kind to me,
and | loved her very much. She was a wonderful person." She said.
Reese didn't say the rest. If it weren't for her mother, she would definitely have developed a vengeful
personality.
Lukas's mood was a bit complicated, he originally wanted to comfort Reese with a few words.
But before he could say anything, Reese opened her mouth and said, "Mr. Strakovski, we're almost at the
company. I'll leave first, so as not to be misunderstood by others."
After Reese finished speaking, she ignored the pain in her ankle and quickened
her pace.
Lukas looked at her back and watched her leave, his face turning extremely unpleasant.
At this moment, only one phrase cto his mind: you reap what you sow.
