Reese's heart tightened, and as she opened her mouth, her words stumbled, "Mr. Strakovski, I..."

Her voice wavered, and she found herself unusually nervous, facing Lukas's usually expressionless but now piercing gaze.

Lukas descended the stairs leisurely, his demeanor casual. "Why aren't you sleeping?" He asked.

Reese wished to ask about the incident but struggled to summon the courage to bring up the topic directly. She decided to start with a less confrontational question. "Mr. Strakovski, you asked me to meet you at Cresta Del Bosque this afternoon. Is there anything that you wanted to discuss with me?" She started.
