Phoenix becomes lost respect for Lara for her actions to Davina this time.
Rey just keeps looking at her because she actually knows about Lara's pretty poignant past that almost made Lara commit suicide. Rey finds out all that because she has to know what kind of person to work with with her family company.
Rey's reaction? For the time being he just wanted to keep an eye on it without meddling in Lara and Davina's matter. If Lara's actions have been excessive, Rey will intervene. So far Lara's actions are still at reasonable limits according to him.
"Alright, Honey. Davina has her own reasons why she did it" Rey said.
Galy looked astonished at Rey who was not too worried about this. And Galy knows Rey very well. That means Rey knows something she doesn't know.
"I'll go out first. The wound on Davina's head could be treated with a temporary plaster while waiting for the doctor to arrive. Come on Phoenix, we're out because there's a lot of guests waiting" Rey ordered.
"Okay, Dad," Phoenix replied.

Lara is currently sitting with Velvet and Willow. They seemed to be chatting familiarly. Willow's gentle character makes Lara comfortable.
Then Thea approached the three beautiful women.
"Hello ... Can I join these beautiful women?" tanya Thea-the Phoenix's only sister.
"Thea ... Where the hell have you been? Jared's been looking for you, ever since" said Velvet.
"I'm new from the inside to change my clothes because I'm going to dance as much as my tarzan husband" replied Thea.
"Oh yes, Lara ... She's Thea-the Phoenix sister," Willow said.
"Hello, nice to meet you, Lara," said Thea who first greeted.
Lara just smiled faintly and looked down respectfully.
"You're beautiful, isn't Phoenix teasing you? Because you're the Phoenix type I guess. Blue eyes with blond brown hair and I heard you were a young CEO" Thea said at length.
"That's Thea. Go, Jared's been waiting for you too long" Velvet said.
"Let's dance together, Lara," Thea pulls Lara's hand and Lara sees Velvet's face.
"You can't refuse his orders, Lara. Just follow the woman" Velvet laughed.
"But, sister .." said Lara who was still looking at Velvet and her hand was pulled by Thea towards the middle of the park.
"I'll be there any minute" cried Velvet.
Then Lara inevitably followed Thea's steps behind her. There was Jared - Thea's long-haired husband. And there are also quite a lot of people dancing.
"Who is he, Baby?" jared asked who immediately pulled on Thea's waist to dance with her.
"Friend of the Phoenix business," Thea replied.
"Well, Lara," Thea said.
Lara was still silent and did not know what to do.
"Phoenix!!!! Come here!!!" yelled Thea waving her hand upwards at Phoenix.
Then Phoenix approached Thea.
"The company of Lara dancing," Thea and Phoenix's orders looked at the araah Lara whom she had not seen since it was covered in a crowd of people.
"No, I just sat down," said Lara turning around but Phoenix pulled Lara's hand and grabbed her waist.
"I don't mind accompanying you to dance" Phoenix said, staring intently at Lara's blue netra.
Phoenix's hand touched Lara's exposed waist and it made Lara feel like she was electrocuted by the touch.
Their eyes are sharp, because they both have a sense of dislike between the two. Phoenix with the thought that Lara is a person without empathy and Lara with the thought that Phoenix is a close friend of Davina who of course she should hate as well.
