Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 160 Mother's Keepsakes
Emily was truly surprised.The middle-aged woman they had just encountered was known in the neighborhood as a "big mouth." Whenever something happened, she was always the first to spread all kinds of rumors.When Emily's mother, Lisa, became pregnant out of wedlock, it was this woman who made it widely known, causing quite a scandal.Because of this, Bert had a big fight with her.Mr. Satan knew even about this woman?Sensing her astonished gaze, Mr. Satan squeezed her hand. "Why are you looking at me like that?"Emily hesitated, "Are you sure you weren't my classmate?""I'm four years older than you, so I can't be your classmate."Yes, they had a four-year age difference. When she was applying for middle school, he would have already been in college.But his familiarity with her and everything around her was still shocking to Emily.She had carefully searched her memories for any males who had appeared in her life, but none of them matched Mr. Satan."I told you, I've been silently w
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 161 Meet Me
Emily was deeply surprised.Mr. Satan, such an accomplished man, had endured such a painful past.Emily opened her mouth in astonishment, "Is it because of the scars on your face?""Emily, I'm a man.""What do you mean?""For a man, a pretty face is never as useful as ability. My pain came from other sources, like betrayal."Emily recalled him saying something similar before.She nodded, "Your abilities are indeed strong now, truly.""I know," Mr. Satan nodded. "Ever since I met you, I told myself I had to become strong. Giving up is for losers; I must succeed."Emily nodded. She didn't say anything. They hugged together, understanding their minds without futher words....Sophia had been staying at Logan Morgan's villa these past few days.She was frustrated, sitting on the living room to watch TV, constantly switching channels, but her irritation remained.Nathan had announced the cancellation of their wedding. How dare he!Sophia felt like a climber who, halfway up the mountain and
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 162 Ten Million
At 2 PM, in Starbucks.When Emily arrived, Sophia was already there.Emily was not surprised at all. When it came to the divorce, Sophia had no choice but to beg her.Emily suddenly felt someone tug her arm from behind."Emily..."Startled, she turned around to see Nathan.He was still in his suit, clearly having just come from the office."It's hot outside," Emily pointed towards the café, "Let's go inside and talk."Nathan have already spotted Sophia sitting by the window. "Did you call her here?""Yes," Emily nodded, "This concerns the three of us. It's best to have everyone present to clear things up. Let's go."Emily pushed open the door of Starbucks, and the cool air from the air conditioner greeted them.Sophia had already seen Emily, as well as the "gentleman" Nathan, who was holding the door for Emily."Did you two come together?"Emily sat down across from Sophia without hesitation. "We just happened to meet at the door. Did you order anything?"Sophia's expression was unple
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 163 I Won't Let You Get Away
Everything was proceeding step by step according to her plan.Sophia managed to gather ten million. However, it wasn’t Sophia who came to deliver the money, but Grace.Grace still had her usual exquisite and elegant makeup. She wore expensive-looking jewelry on her neck, wrists, and ears, and was dressed in a blue long dress, looking every bit like a wealthy wife.Emily sat by the window in a café, observing her.Grace also observed Emily and smiled, "You really look a lot like your mother."“That’s not surprising,” Emily replied. “Mrs. Morgan, you came here instead of Sophia today. Do you have something to say to me?”Grace calmly stroked the bracelet on her wrist and went straight to the point, “Sophia isn’t very smart. She doesn’t see through your intentions and thinks you’ll divorce Nathan once you get the money… Emily, I’m not Sophia. Let’s be clear. What exactly are you planning?”Emily’s smile faded slightly. “How do you know I’m not really just after the money?”“Because you’r
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 164 A New Plan
When James Taylor received Olivia’s call, he already had an inkling of Emily’s intentions.Emily didn’t truly want Logan Morgan to be the chief designer of the shopping center; she had a bigger plan. However, James Taylor didn’t mind. He trusted Emily and had benefited greatly from Satan's sacrifices, so he was willing to cooperate with Emily unconditionally.James Taylor began contacting Logan Morgan while Emily continued her work.There were only four hours left until the concert. She followed Lucas’s team to the stadium and started applying makeup to Lucas backstage.“You haven’t rested well lately, have you? Your dark circles are quite noticeable.” Emily layered concealer to cover them up.Lucas sighed as he sat in the chair. “Emily, can you do me a favor?”“Huh?” Emily paused. “I’m just a makeup artist; what can I do for you?”“Of course, you can. Please, persuade Olivia to stop liking me. I’m really about to have a nervous breakdown because of the boss…”Lucas kept sighing. When

Convincing Logan Morgan was much easier than Emily had imagined.James Taylor said on the phone, "The key to breaking down someone's psychological defenses is to cater to their preferences. Logan Morgan is essentially a pompous man. Give him enough face, and he will be very happy."Emily merely sneered when she heard this. Even Grace understood his true color, but it was a pity that her mother never got to see Logan Morgan's true nature.What a shame.However, it might be for the best. If her mother had seen what a boring man the person she once loved turned out to be, she would have been deeply disappointed.James Taylor organized a grand induction ceremony for Logan Morgan, as Emily's instructions, in the ballroom of the Hilton Hotel. Thanks to Allen Parker, many celebrities were invited, turning the induction ceremony into a grand party.Logan Morgan wore a dark gray suit, his hair meticulously combed back. It looked as though his hair had been dyed, all jet black. He held a champa
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 166 Negotiation
The banquet had reached its later stages, and everything had settled. Grace had not done anything; she quietly sat in the audience, playing the role of a dutiful high-society lady.Emily was a bit disappointed. She thought Grace would at least do something. Had she really just accepted it like this?This wasn't like her."Olivia, I'm going to the restroom."Olivia nodded. "Do you need me to go with you?""No," Emily replied. "I can manage on my own."Olivia cautioned her, "Be careful; there are a lot of people today.""Alright."Emily headed towards the restroom.There weren't as many people as she had expected.While washing her hands, she saw a familiar purple figure in the mirror.She smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear. "Do you have something to say to me?"Grace had already locked the restroom door behind her and stood before Emily. "Emily, is this really necessary? Mutual destruction is the worst outcome.""What are you planning to do to me? I'm listening."Grace's gaze sc
Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed 167 Being Outplayed
It was a long time before Grace returned to the hall.By then, the hall was empty, the previous liveliness all but gone, with only a few staff members cleaning up.She walked over to one of the cleaners and asked, "Excuse me, has the banquet ended?"The cleaner seemed surprised. "Yes, it's over. Everyone has left.""Everyone? Mr. Morgan too?"The cleaner chuckled. "Of course, the banquet is over, so everyone has left."Grace frowned, her chest feeling as if it were stuffed with cotton.She had been outplayed by Emily once again.Emily's words successfully redirected all the anger toward her.Yes, it was true that she had locked the restroom door, but Emily delayed her long enough. By the time she finally managed to get away and return, Logan Morgan had already left.He had always played the role of a loving husband in public, never once leaving her behind.She pulled out her phone and called Logan Morgan.He answered quickly. "Hello?""Darling," Grace said softly, "where are you now?"
