Rona held the wine glass, her body a bit stiff.
Unexpectedly in this situation, someone would help Reese, making Rona angry to the point of gritting her teeth.
Reese just couldn't avoid it, thinking she was about to be splashed with red wine, but unexpectedly Anthony
appeared at the right time, blocking it for her.
She raised her head, and saw Anthony looking at her with concern and saying, "Lia, are you okay?"
Reese shook her head, got out of Anthony's chest, glanced at his back, and said helplessly: "The one in trouble is
you!"
Then she turned her head to look at Rona, her face full of disgust, her voice cold: "Rona, you must be sick. Why
are you so angry?"
If red wine is splashed on her, she suffers.
Anyway, she provoked Rona, but she got really angry when Rona splashed red wine on her friend.
Just as Rona was about to open her mouth, she heard a cold voice: "What are you all here for?"
Anthony saw Lukas cover, glanced at him, his eyes flashed, and said nothing.

Rona rolled her eyes and immediately said in front of Reese: "Mr. Strakovski, the thing is, just now | accidentally
spilled red wine on Designer Roberts. Fortunately, this gentleman appeared in tand held her in his arms.
Truly a hero who saved a beauty! I'm really jealous of designer Roberts!"
Rona finished speaking, raised her eyebrows, and glanced at Reese, feeling a little gloated.
The others didn't know, but she knew Lukas was very concerned about Reese being involved with other men.
This man saved Reese, hugged her on the spot, and was seen by so many people. It would be strange if Lukas
wasn't angry to death.
Based on Lukas' previous reaction in Switzerland Mountain Top, every the gets jealous, he will definitely
quarrel with Reese!
In this case, Reese couldn't escape her hand.
She pursed her lips arrogantly, waiting for Lukas to look at Reese with cold eyes.
Reese heard Rona say that and didn't rush to explain, but calmly looked at Lukas.
Having been with him for so long, perhaps she understood that he was a possessive man, didn't like her being
involved with other men, and didn't like her being hurt.
Rona was clearly trying to sow discord between them, but right now she just wanted to know what Lukas would
choose.
When Lukas saw Reese's calm eyes, his eyes blinked slightly, and the anger that had just risen in his heart
seemed to have largely dissipated.
Of course, he was offended that Anthony hugged Reese in public, but it didn't mean he couldn't see through
Rona's clumsy trick at the moment.
He looked at Rona coldly, his voice neither high nor low, "Yes, Reese's popularity with men is indeed very good,
but no matter how high her popularity is with men, they will just be friends. Unlike you, you are all in bed with
them!"
It can be said that Lukas didn't save any face for Rona at all. Her face turned red and she angrily exclaimed:
"Lukas... You... You've gone too far!"
Lukas looked at her with deep eyes: "Do you still have the face to say that? Don't think | don't know that your so-
called accidental splashing of red wine was intentional! In front of me, you'd better put aside your petty
schemes. If not, don't blme for being rude!"
He finished speaking, ignored Rona, and took off his coat and put it on Reese.

Then, he looked towards Anthony: "Principal Rivers, thank you for what just happened. | will call the waiter to
take you to change clothes!"
Anthony glanced at Lukas with a complicated expression, nodded, turned, and left.
Next, Lukas kept Reese with him, as if he was afraid someone would bully her at any moment.
Reese's sharp eyes saw Elias pulling Ava to sit on the rooftop and chat, while Raven hid behind a potted plant
and secretly looked at them with especially pitiful eyes.
Reese sighed helplessly.
Soon, it was the second half of the dinner, the charity auction.
Reese looked through the charity auction flyer. Because the people invited to this charity dinner were mostly
people in the jewelry industry, most of the auction items were jewelry.
The auction was in full swing.
Lukas glanced at Reese and said in an indifferent tone, "Look, do you like anything?"
Reese was a bit surprised, replying: "Well... It's not necessary!"
