Reese's face turned unpleasant as she stared at him without saying a word.

Lukas felt uncomfortable under her gaze, and he chuckled sarcastically, "As you wish."

After speaking, he stood up and walked towards the exit.

Reese knew that Lukas is definitely not happy. After all, he had gone to great lengths to uncover the truth and wanted to stand up for her, but she refused.

She didn't want Lukas to personally take action and break someone's hand, as if it were as casual as drinking water or eating. It terrified her.

However, Reese had no idea that someone like Gwendolyn wouldn't be affected by her so-called punishment. Instead, it would only make Gwendolyn hate her even more and drive her to do more insane things.

But for now, Reese couldn't see through all of this.

She had never encountered someone like Gwendolyn before, and she didn't understand this type of person.

is my fault. Our King Family failed to educate Gwendolyn properly."

Reese glanced at him and replied calmly, "It has nothing to do with you."

After saying that, she got up and walked outside.

At the entrance of the private room, she heard James raising his voice, "Regardless, thank you for believing me in front of Lukas."

Reese's tone remained cold, "I'm just discussing the matter at hand."
