Seeing the man's expression, Reese was alarmed and asked worriedly, "What happened again?"
Lukas raised his eyes and glanced at her. "Someone from above put pressure on Officer Garcia, thinking that it
was a case of deliberate homicide; they think that we must have known something about this case!"
Reese's face changed slightly. "Didn't we clear yet?"
Lukas's eyes flickered, and he looked at her with a complicated expression: "No matter who instigated it, it was
Peter who caused the death, but the people above refuted that Peter didn't have any evidence to prove that he
was instigated by someone!"
Reese's face turned ugly: "It means that Peter is the murderer alone; his claims are unfounded; his deduction is
not credible!"
Seeing that Reese seemed a little angry, Lukas sighed helplessly: "That's more likely."
He paused and continued: "And, | guess, the identity of this person behind the scenes isn't that simple, Reese;
have you offended anyone?"

Reese's face turned livid: "Do you think I've done something so heinous that made the others want my life this
badly?!"
Lukas frowned and said, "That's not what | meant."
Reese stared at him: "I don't care what you mean; what | want to say is, for a normal person, if you accidentally
stepped on them, just apologize and that's it. But, in their case, they will not only think that you did it on purpose
but also think that you deliberately did it; and maybe you want to murder them; do you understand?"
Lukas looked at Reese with a dark expression and said nothing.
After all, the other party was after her. Reese was a little flustered and anxious about this case.
Seeing that Lukas just keeps silent, she can't hold back her emotions: "I may not know who this person is behind
this incident, but | have a clear conscience. | know myself that | have never done anything utterly
unconscionable. If he feels that what happened this tis not enough, and if he insists on coming at me, I'm
not afraid, but he should not leave any traces, because I'll surely catch him!"
When Reese was done speaking, feeling a little out of control, Lukas finally spoke slowly, "Are you feeling
better?"
Reese frowned and looked at him: "What?"
Lukas said in a calm tone, "You were a little out of control and need to vent. It's good to express it that way; you
will feel better."
Hearing this, Reese thought that she was angry at Lukas just now. But realizing what she had said just now, she
suddenly felt like a deflated balloon. "I...I didn't mean it, | going upstairs first!"
After saying that, she hurried upstairs in a panic.
This matter had affected her after all, making her feel like this was a huge conspiracy involving countless
mysteries, which made her feel uneasy.
Although Reese was flustered, she was still worried about Lukas's injury.
Before she went to bed, she called the housekeeper and asked her to tell Lukas to take his medicine.

After a good sleep, Reese felt much better the next morning.
She thought about what happened last night and felt a little embarrassed for no reason. Lukas helped her block
the knife, but she actually vented her emotions on him!
Thinking about it made her blush for no reason; no wonder when Lukas had a fever before, he mumbled that she
had no conscience at all!
She felt a little embarrassed and secretly drove to work early.
When she arrived at the company, she notice a crowd blocking downstairs.
Reese frowned. She wanted to know what happened, so she parked the car in the underground garage.
However, when she walked over, a man suddenly took a photo, looked at her face twice, and suddenly shouted,
"Reese is here!"
Reese was dumbfounded. What's going on?
But in the next second, before she could react,
She saw a middle-aged woman rush towards her like crazy, reaching out to grab her hair and slap her.
