Pampered By Billionaires After Betrayal

Chapter 172 Framed

By the time Logan Morgan and Grace rushed upstairs, the situation was beyond their imagination. Herry was crying in pain, Sophia was kneeling on the ground with a frightened expression, and Emily was using a cloth to absorb the liquid from Herry's face. Emily hadn't expected Herry to come at that moment. She was only trying to avoid Sophia's attack, but Herry's coming timing was too coincidental, and he was hit by the liquid Sophia threw. "What on earth is going on?" Grace frantically crouched down to check on Herry. Half of Herry's face was bleeding, looking horrifying. Emily was still using the cloth to wipe away the remaining liquid from his face. Grace, assuming she was the culprit, pushed her away and held Herry tightly: "What are you trying to do to my son? Herry is so young. Even if he offended you, you can't hurt a child!" Logan Morgan, seeing the wounds on Herry's face, flew into a rage: "Emily, what exactly are you trying to do?" They instantly directed their anger towards Emily. Emily sighed and slowly stood up, "Mr. Logan, Mrs. Logan, if I were you, I would take Herry to the hospital immediately. He was splashed with acid. If you delay any longer, he will definitely be disfigured." Grace was terrified and started crying and cursing: "Since you came to my house today, I've treated you as an honored guest. I've given you everything you wanted. What did I do wrong for you to harm my son like this?" Herry continued to cry loudly, but Grace, only thinking about blaming Emily, didn't consider taking him to the hospital. "I know you suspect I harmed your mother, right? If you want revenge, come at me! Why throw acid on a child?" Grace intentionally brought up the past to confirm Logan's belief that Emily harmed Herry. At this moment, Logan couldn't care about anything else. He picked up Herry from Grace's arms and rushed outside: "We'll go to the hospital first, and discuss the rest later." Logan drove while Grace held Herry in the back seat. As they left, Grace shouted: "Dear, don't let Emily escape. She has to come with us to the hospital to see the harm she's done!"Logan didn't speak, indicating his agreement. He looked at Emily standing outside the car with a cold gaze. Emily lowered her eyes, chuckled lightly, and got into the passenger seat: "I'm not the culprit. I won't run. Just drive." The emergency room became busy due to Herry's arrival. Logan followed the doctor into the examination room, looking worried: "Doctor, please save son..." The doctor checked Herry's facial wounds and sighed with relief: "Fortunately, most of the acid was removed. His face will have some scars, but he won't be disfigured." Grace slapped Emily's face, "Emily, how could you hurt my son with acid! There's a bathroom in your room, why didn't you wash the acid off his face with water? Why did you use a cloth? Were you trying to delay time to disfigure Herry?" But the slap didn't land on Emily's face. Emily nimbly stepped back, avoiding the slap, and said calmly: "If I wanted to disfigure him, I wouldn't have wiped the acid off his face." "You..." Logan, enraged, raised his hand to strike her: "Do you have any conscience? Herry is still so young! He's my son! Why are you so mean?" "Sir, please calm down. You misunderstood this young lady," the doctor quickly intervened: "Acid reacts with water by releasing a lot of heat, causing burns and definitely leaving heavy scars. Wiping the acid with a cloth is the correct approach to minimize damage." The doctor's words left Logan and Grace stunned. Emily saved Herry?! The doctor had already arranged for a nurse to treat Herry's wounds. Despite Herry's cries of pain, the nurse patiently treated his injuries, enduring his kicks and punches. Logan, finding it hard to believe, grabbed the doctor's sleeve and asked: "Doctor, is wiping acid with a cloth really the correct method?" "Of course," the doctor said. "And this young lady acted promptly. If it had been any later, the consequences would have been much more severe. This is a strong acid that can dissolve steel and could seriously harm his life. Without this young lady's timely action, Herry could have died."Logan's anger dissipated, and he rubbed his hands awkwardly. Grace, however, collapsed into his arms, crying uncontrollably: "Dear, you have to get justice for Herry! He can't suffer this injustice!" "I know, I know, I won't let Herry be wronged..." "Dear, how did Emily know to use a cloth to wipe the acid off the skin? Isn't the normal reaction to wash it off with water? She's so knowledgeable about acid, she must have done it..." Hearing her words, Logan's expression changed again. Emily chuckled: "Mrs. Logan, being uneducated is not your fault, but falsely accusing others is. The proper way to treat acid burns is taught in middle school chemistry class. Any middle school student knows that. Did you not graduate from middle school?" Grace's face turned pale: "What..." "I saved your son, and you falsely accuse me. Mr. Logan, I believe you are a reasonable man, but your wife is truly embarrassing you. She doesn't even know basic chemistry knowledge! You better not let her speak in front of your business partners, or everyone will know you married an uneducated shrew!" Logan's face turned very unpleasant. He was surrounded by doctors and nurses. They all looked at him with strange expressions, making him feel very embarrassed. "Emily, this is a public place. I understand you're upset about being falsely accused. Let's go home and settle this, okay? Don't let others see us make a scene."
