Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 349 The Truth
Bobby was a lot shorter than Daniel and didn't have his brother's charisma. He looked a bit sleazy.“Bro, honestly, this has nothing to do with me. It's all Logan's mess from before. I just helped him cover it up, that's all.”Daniel felt a sinking feeling in his chest.From Bobby’s tone, it seemed like Logan really had done some dirty stuff.“You need to tell me exactly what’s going on with Logan’s design.”“What design?”“The one he won the award for. The one Emily showed today! If it wasn’t about that design, he wouldn’t have called Logan over.”Ken exhaled a puff of white smoke, squinting as he flicked the ash from his cigarette. “Daniel, can’t you see? That design wasn’t Logan’s. F.uck! I used to admire him so much because of that design, and it turns out it was all a lie.”Daniel frowned, staring at Bobby. “You tell me, is that true?”Bobby shrank back a little. “Bro, honestly, I don’t know all the details. By the time I was his student, he was already famous.”“Then just tell m

In the conference room, only Logan and Emily were left facing off.Alex, worried about Emily, stayed close to her, ready to protect her from any sudden moves Logan might make."Emily," Logan pleaded, making a last-ditch effort, "Tell me, what do you want me to do to make you forgive me?"Emily's expression was cold, devoid of any emotion. "Mr. Morgan, don't you know that killing someone means paying with your life? That's just the way it is."Logan argued, "Your mother was already hemorrhaging badly. Even if I hadn’t given up on treatment, she might not have survived! You can’t put all the blame on me, right?"Not blame him entirely?Emily sneered. "So, you're saying my mom was just doomed to die from childbirth complications?""That's not what I meant. What I'm saying is that your mother was also responsible. Look, lots of women give birth, and not many of them die, right? Emily, you weren’t born yet, so you wouldn’t know, but your mother wasn’t in great health to begin with. She was

Mr. Satan had just walked into the room. He looked at Alex and said, "Dad.""Yeah," Alex responded. "About Emily...""I'll take care of it," Mr. Satan replied firmly. "She's my woman, and whatever she wants to do, I'll make sure it happens."Alex nodded approvingly and added, "If there's anything I can help with, just let me know. You and Emily are both very stubborn, always trying to handle things on your own, but you're still young. Handling things too extremely can cause problems down the line."Mr. Satan's gaze remained fixed on Emily, not sure if she even heard what Alex was saying.Whatever, Alex thought. It's only natural for a son to care about his wife. He'd talk to them about these things later."I'll leave you two alone then," Alex said, getting ready to go. "Vincent, make sure you spend some time with Emily over the next few days. I'll keep an eye on the company for you."Mr. Satan nodded. "Thanks, Dad.""Alright then, I've got a handle on things. You two talk, I'll get go

“Emily wants to pursue justice for her mother’s death and reclaim the reputation that should have been her mother’s. Your brother wasn’t involved in what happened back then, so Emily won’t go after him.”Daniel let out a huge sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear. I knew Emily was reasonable…”Mr. Satan paused his steps and added another reminder, “If you really care about your brother, tell him to stay away from Logan Morgan.”Daniel quickly nodded. “I know, I know. I’ll talk to him.”……Logan Morgan looked like he had aged ten years by the time he left. His usually neat hair was tousled by the wind, and his whole demeanor was dark and brooding.Bobby followed him silently, too scared to speak. He knew just how petty Logan Morgan could be. If Bobby offended him, there would be consequences.After they had walked for a while, Logan suddenly turned around and stared at him, his gaze piercing through Bobby’s thoughts like a laser. “Did you tell your brother where Grace and Sophia are sta

Bobby’s honesty earned him some leniency from Logan Morgan. This reason was enough to convince him.“We need to make good use of this Penelope…” Logan Morgan paused, “She could be very useful.”Bobby raised an eyebrow, excitement evident in his voice: “I’ve thought it through. We can handle it this way. Not only will Emily be out of the picture, but Norman’s family won’t blame us either…”The plan started to take shape in their discussion, becoming clearer by the minute.……Emily was in a bad mood today, feeling some discomfort in her stomach and generally just worn out.Satan held her in his arms and gently checked her forehead with his lips. “...You’re okay, not too hot.”Emily shifted in his arms, “I’m fine, just feeling a bit tired today.”Satan held her tighter, “Why do you need to handle this yourself? Leave it to me. Everything Logan Morgan has can be gone in an instant.”Emily sighed, “But this is Mom’s legacy. I want to help her reclaim it myself. Plus... he was someone Mom l
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 354 The Explanation
Penelope’s hands were slightly rough. Especially her palms, which appeared dry with visible lines. Resting in her palm was a black bow hairpin—an old, common style that looked a bit worn out and loose, showing clear signs of use.Satan furrowed his brows but didn’t move.Penelope raised an eyebrow slightly. “Isn’t this Emily’s? Don’t you want it anymore?”Satan remained wary. “How can I be sure whether you swapped it or not? You suddenly show up today and meet me in the Hilton. What exactly are you after?”Penelope smiled, retracting the hairpin and holding it in her hand. “You still don’t trust me, Simon. Is it that you trust no one but Emily in this world?”“I trust many people, but you’re not one of them,” Satan said coldly and decisively. “Penelope, I’ve been clear about my position. You know the choice you need to make. I don’t need to spell it out for you.”Penelope’s smile froze. She looked up at the man in front of her. He was somewhat familiar but also somewhat unfamiliar. St

“What position do you have to question me?”Satan was in no mood to deal with Jackson, who was now acting like a furious lion.Jackson loved Emily, and that was clear. He had pursued her before, but she had firmly rejected him, leading him to let go. During those drunken nights at the bar, Jackson had voiced his true feelings—he still loved Emily, but he didn’t want to cause her any more trouble or be pushed away.Men's compromises with rivals aren’t always unbreakable. Even the smallest disturbance can create a storm.And Penelope’s situation was complicated to explain quickly. Moreover, deep down, Satan was unwilling to clarify everything to his rival.But Satan's silence only fueled Jackson's anger. “What position? Ha! I’m Emily’s superior, and I love her! Vincent, I once thought you loved Emily deeply for years, which is why I stepped aside. I believed I wasn’t as devoted as you, and Emily chose you. But what’s with what that woman just said? Do you really love Emily, or do you ju
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 356 My Wife Is Inside
Satan’s phone had no signal. He was unable to contact the outside world.Inside the confined elevator, the only source of light was the small flame from Jackson's lighter.“Damn it, it's such a big hotel, how could this happen? It’s been several minutes, why isn’t the power back on?” Jackson was growing increasingly impatient and agitated.Satan remained silent, but his breathing had grown heavier. The sudden appearance of Penelope and the coincidental power outage seemed too eerie to be mere chance.“Hey, Vincent, say something. What do we do now, just wait here?”Satan responded coldly, “And what solution do you propose? Feel free to share.”“Damn, aren’t you supposed to be impressive, mysterious, and capable of making Emily feel secure? Why isn’t that working now?”Satan glanced at him. “I’m only human, not a god.”“Damn,” Jackson was startled. “Can you take off that mask? It’s scaring me…”The white mask appeared even more ominous in the darkness. Especially when Satan suddenly tu
