Pampered By Billionaires After Betrayal

Chapter 292 Logan's Motive

His words made Emily understand just how shameless Logan could be. He could lie without even batting an eye. Emily thought sadly, did her mother choose to be with him because of his lies too? From appearance to family background and talent, Logan Morgan was not impressive, but his words were very convincing. Lisa was only twenty-two when she gave birth to her. Before that, she had been Logan Morgan's classmate for several years. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, how could she possibly outwit such a calculating man? But it was too late to say anything now. Her mother had been gone for nearly twenty-seven years, while Logan lived a respectable life, enjoying wealth and praise thanks to the daughter she gave birth to— According to him, all the wrongs were Grace's doing. He was innocent. "Really?" Emily's heart felt icy cold. Whether from guilt or realizing his lies wouldn't work, Logan stopped pretending, "Emily, you're grown up now, almost a mother yourself. You should be rational and not let emotions cloud your judgment. You don’t have many family members. Who can be your support? Your adoptive father and uncle will only hold you back! We are blood relatives. If you suffer grievances in the Norman family, I am the only one who can help you. By the way, you have a younger brother. Your relationship is quite good. If you help him, you'll have an extra helping hand in the future..." Emily considered his words nonsense. But when she heard the last sentence, she couldn't help but laugh. He finally revealed his true motive. "You really are a great father. You're humbling yourself to please me so that I’ll help your son. Fatherly love, truly remarkable." "The fatherly love you lacked before, I will make up for it..." "No need," Emily shook her head. "Mr. Morgan, for the last time, I don’t have a father. Not before, not now, not in the future. You don’t need to worry about my affairs in the Norman family. That's all, Mr. Morgan. The next time I see you, I hope it's in court." Logan, still unwilling to give up, reached out to grab her wrist.But a larger hand quickly encircled Emily, shielding her from Logan's view. "Mr. Norman?" Logan Morgan recognized him immediately and hurriedly said, "You're just in time. I was talking to Emily about the wedding..." But Mr. Satan didn’t pay him any attention. His eyes were only on Emily. Gently and steadily, he guided her into the elevator, softly reminding her, "Watch your step..." Ding— The elevator doors slowly closed, shutting Logan out. Emily nearly collapsed from relief, but thankfully Mr. Satan was there to support her. "Are you okay?" Emily nodded, leaning on his neck for support, "I’m fine. I just can’t understand why good people don’t live long while bad people thrive." Mr. Satan gently stroked her hair, comforting her, "I remember you asked me the same question last time." Mr. Satan said, "Back then, I told you that if things haven’t gotten better, it means it’s not the end yet. The same applies today." Emily exhaled deeply, "Mr. Satan, I want to sue Logan Morgan as soon as possible." "Alright, once our wedding is over, I'll start preparing." "But Emma is already dead..." Mr. Satan said, "I’m very sorry about Emma's death. I share some of the responsibility for that." Emily frowned, "Did you kill her?" "Of course not. Though I never leave my business rivals an out, I don’t engage in illegal activities. Our child will be born soon. I can't afford to get my hands dirty." It wasn’t him. Emily felt a slight sense of relief. She never really believed Mr. Satan would kill, but the mounting evidence had made her doubt. Still, she trusted Mr. Satan wouldn’t lie to her. If it wasn’t him, then who was it?Mr. Satan said, "I reviewed the surveillance footage repeatedly. Only Jackson, Olivia, and I had been there. But actually, Grace and Sophia had also been there." Emily's eyes widened in shock. "How did they know about that place? They couldn’t have known Emma was back in the country!" "Jackson took them there. The day Grace and Sophia were kicked out by Logan, they made the news for not having money to pay for a taxi. Jackson happened to pass by and took them to Emma’s place to humiliate them." Mr. Satan added, "Jackson is a well-meaning person, but he's too impulsive. His humiliation of Grace and Sophia vented his anger, but also exposed Emma’s location. They must have returned and made sure Emma stayed silent forever. When I got the news and arrived, Emma was already dead." Ding— The elevator reached the 23rd floor. Mr. Satan walked out with her, holding her hand and using her fingerprint to unlock room 2307. Emily was seated on the bed to rest while he went to the kitchen to boil some water. "What was Emma's cause of death?" "Blood loss," Mr. Satan said. "A doctor had treated her head wound and stopped the bleeding. But when I arrived, the bandages and gauze were scattered on the floor, and her face was covered in blood. I guess they removed the bandages, letting Emma’s wound bleed until she died."
