Chapter 72

In another ward, after the door closed, Reese couldn't help but furrow her brows, "What does Elías want?"

Ava shook her head, not wanting to discuss the matter. "It's nothing. He's just the playful type, and he didn't give me a hard time. You should go back now. You have work tomorrow."

Reese's eyes flickered, "Alright, then. Take care and call me if you need anything."

Ava nodded, "Okay, I got it. You should leave now."

Reese left, closing the door behind her. As she turned, she saw Lukas coming out from the neighboring ward.

Both of them glanced at each other and then averted their gazes simultaneously.

Reese squeezed her fingers. She hadn't done anything wrong, so why should she feel like she had done

something worth being guilty about?

With this thought in mind, she turned her head and walked towards the elevator as if nothing had

Lukas followed her silently.

reflections on the elevator wall.

to address me like that."

Reese nodded, "Okay, Mr. Strakovski."

Lukas's face darkened, and he didn't continue to correct her, "You don't need to avoid me like this. I won't devour you."

Reese hurriedly shook her head, "Mr. Strakovski, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that I might
