Martins looked at her with a somewhat unpredictable expression on his face, "Ms. Ibarra, when someone calls
you, it is the most basic courtesy to remain silent!"
Mina's face suddenly turned red, "I...I didn't mean to interrupt, I'm so sorry!" Martins looked at her blankly, "I'm
going to take you where you need to go first!"
Meanwhile, Lukas left the airport and hailed a cab, instructing the driver, "Let's go into town.
Once in the cab, Lukas immediately dialed Reese's number, but it went straight to voicemail because her phone
was turned off.
Lukas' expression was tense, and the driver sensed an aura of impending storm from him, but he wisely
remained silent throughout the ride.
With a determined look, he dialed Ava's phone number.
This tthe call was answered quickly.

Ava was driving when she saw it was Lukas's call. She was startled at first and then immediately reached out her
right hand to nudge Reese into the passenger seat, "Reese, it's Lukas' phone number!"
Reese, who had been a bit on edge about Lukas for the past three days of silence, had no reaction at first. She
almost started to believe that Ava was trying to trick her.
However, when the light turned red, Ava handed her the phone and watched as Reese's grievances immediately
poured out when she saw Lukas' non the phone. She couldn't help but cry as soon as Lukas' nappeared
on the
screen.
She turned her head thoughtfully and continued to drive with a blank expression on her face.
Reese answered the phone, her voice shaking, "Hello!"
As soon as her voice was out of her mouth, tears flowed uncontrollably.
When Lukas heard Reese's voice, he was overcwith a deep sadness. He had heard her speak in different
tones-cold, distant, proud, and even angry-but never before had he heard her sound so forlorn and desolate. This
was the first tReese had allowed herself to be vulnerable and real with him.
Lukas felt a deep sadness in his heart as he replied, "Baby, I'm so sorry | couldn't be there sooner.
Reese quickly wiped away her tears, though her voice remained choked with sobs, "No, | wish you could come
back safely!"
Lukas just wanted to rush over to Reese. He asked, "Baby, where are you right now?"
When Reese heard what Lukas said, he suddenly beceven sadder, "I'm going to the hospital now!"
Lukas' tone suddenly bectense, "Why are you going to the hospital? Are you injured?"
Hearing Lukas's unabashed concern, Reese pursed her lips in sorrow, "I'm not hurt, I... Something happened to

we're on our way to visit her!"
When Lukas heard Reese say that something had happened to her yesterday, his eyes darkened, "I understand.
You go to the hospital first and I'll cto you now."
Reese nodded obediently, "Okay!"
Lukas thought about it ending the call from there, but he was afraid that if he said too little, Reese would have
the feeling that he didn't care enough about her.
After all, Reese was going through something bad, and she was feeling really uncomfortable right now.
Wanting to convey his concern, Lukas added, "Reese, don't worry about the Interumors. I've already
arranged for a team to investigate the matter thoroughly. | promise you I'll take care of it and give you the
answers you deserve."
Reese's voice trembled with emotion as she replied, "Thank you, Lukas. | believe in you."
