Cole rushed in with an anxious expression, worry evident on his face. "Reese, are you okay?"

He had just learned from Chloe that something had happened to Reese.

He felt extremely guilty. If he hadn't been careless, Reese might not have been in this situation.

Lukas was displeased with Cole. The fact that Reese had breakfast with Cole didn't sit well with him, and his expression showed it.

He glared at Cole, his tone harsh. "You could have waited until you found out before bringing her to the hospital. She might not have survived. Do you understand how serious this could have been?"

Cole looked apologetically at Reese. "Reese, I'm sorry. I only just found out." Reese shook her head. "It's okay, it's not your fault. It was my carelessness."

Hearing Reese's words, Lukas felt extremely uncomfortable. He frowned at Reese, snorted coldly, and then turned to walk out.

Cole pursed his lips. "Reese, what's wrong with Mr Strakovski?"

Reese's eyes flickered. "Perhaps he's in a bad mood."

Cole nodded. "But to be honest, we're really lucky that Mr Strakovski was here today."

Reese made a humming sound but didn't say anything.

After some thought, Cole spoke again. "Ava has heard about your allergy and has rushed to Menkerios."

Reese furrowed her brow. "How did she find out?"

Cole looked a bit embarrassed. "I received a call from her as soon as I learned about your allergy. I was worried about you at the time, so I couldn't help but tell her."

Reese understood that Cole was acting out of concern for her. She pressed her lips together. "Could you pick her up from the airport later? I have to wait here for the results of the Heart of the Sea Jewelry Competition. It'd be a good opportunity for me to spend time with her."
