Chapter 64

Reese didn't expected that the one she casually rescued could be Anthony. He once had inadvertently confirmed that Alexa's suicide attempt had been a ruse.

With a genuine smile, Reese extended her hand for a handshake, "Hello, I'm Reese. The statement you. issued about the fake suicide involved my half sister. I had always held a positive opinion of you, but I

never imagined you were so young!"

Recalling the heated words exchanged during Anthony's assault earlier, Reese felt a twinge of guilt.

It seemed that the attackers had been motivated by his association with the statement.

Their hands parted, and Anthony's eyes widened in astonish. "So, it's you!"

Reese's smile held gratitude. "Indeed, it's me. I haven't had a chance to thank you for your support online properly. You shielded me from the vicious criticism of netizens."

Anthony's response was warm. "It was the least a doctor should do, guided by their conscience."

The revelation of their identities engendered a sense of camaraderie between them.

Peering at Anthony, Reese inquired, "By the way, who were those individuals? How did they manage to corner you in the alley?"

Anthony cast a rueful glance her way, sighing softly. "In my line of work, it's not uncommon to incur the

resentment of certain patients' families. I was actually on route to this supermarket when, quite unexpectedly, I found myself ambushed in that alley."

A hint of amusement danced in his eyes. "Thanks to your timely intervention, I escaped quite the

predicament."

Reese felt a blush of embarrassment rise. "You're too kind, Director Rivers. You were the one who

defended me online initially. If anything. I should be thanking you."

“Let's consider it a mutual exchange of assistance. By the way, what brings you here?" Anthony's demeanor lightened.

Reese's gaze flitted to the nearby supermarket, a smile tugging at her lips as she explained, "A friend of mine is hospitalized here, and I came to gather some daily necessities for her."

Anthony appeared mildly surprised. "What a coincidence. How about we go together?"

A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Elionair

Chapter 61

Lukas exchanged a few parting words when he prepared to leave, Elias swiftly caught his arm with his uninjured hand, his voice cajoling. "Hey, you better bring me some edible food during mealtime. The hospital's culinary offerings are dreadfully lacking"

Despite his arm injury, Elias's air of arrogance seemed undiminished. In fact, he didn't shy away from playfully flirting with the hospital's nurses, casting suggestive glances at those familiar to him.

Observing this scene, Lukas met Elias's antics with a look that suggested he hardly recognized him at all "You can have someone else fetch your food. I'm rather occupied."

Elias clung to Lukas like a piece of gum, "Come on. It's a rare event for me to be hospitalized!"

Lukas rolled his eyes in mild exasperation. "It's just a fractured bone. You don't require a hospital stay."

"You don't get it. The hospital is swarming with delightful nurses. Given my infrequent visits, I can't pass up such an opportunity." Elias feigned a pout.

Bordering on the edge of aggravation, Lukas responded, "Perhaps you should consider visiting a psychiatrist."

At that very moment, Lukas's phone began to ring.
