"Why aren't you saying anything?" His voice was anxious, "Is something wrong?"Emily replied, "I'm fine, Mr. Satan. I just... miss you."Mr. Satan's breathing became audible over the phone.His breathing quickened.His voice changed as well, "Emily, are you giving up? If you say yes, I'll take you away immediately."Emily did want to leave with him.Life with Mr. Satan was fulfilling and happy. She cooked every day, looking forward to the birth of her baby. Mr. Satan would help solve any problems. They love each other, and her life is peaceful and joyful.But..."I need to find out the truth about my mother's death. I want to make sure the bad guys pay for what they've done!"Mr. Satan let out a soft "hmm": "After all these years, you're still the stubborn and undefeated Emily.""...I'm not that stubborn. I'm actually very weak. I even put up with Carol for four years...""You're not weak, you're kind," Mr. Satan said. "You respect your elders and don't want to confront them. But you

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 E

173 Let Her Leave
Emily stopped talking and quietly sat aside, watching the doctor treat Herry's facial wounds.She maintained a calm demeanor, which barely reassured Logan.Grace wanted to argue further, but Logan's firm grip on her shoulder reminded her not to cause a scene in public, so she held her tongue."Are Herry's parents here?" the nurse shouted from the corridor.Logan gave Grace a deep look, seemingly a warning, then turned and replied, "Yes, I'm Herry's father.""Oh, he said he needs to use the restroom. Can you take him?""Sure, sure. Is his facial wound fully treated?""Yes, it's all taken care of. You did the right first aid immediately, so his injury isn't serious. He still feels some pain, but he's fine now. He'll need to take anti-inflammatory medication for the next month and be careful to avoid infection for a full recovery."Logan smiled with relief, "Thank you.""No need to thank me, it's our job. You should thank the person who administered the first aid."Logan nodded repeatedl

174 Acting
"Exactly," Logan interjected, "Her father has a house; she can stay there."Grace gritted her teeth, "At least give her a few days to pack."Logan wanted Sophia to move out immediately. She could stay in a hotel for a few days. However, he feared Sophia would damage his reputation, so he reluctantly nodded, "Let her stay a few more days, until she's ready to move out."Loganpaused, then turned to Emily, "Do you have any objections?"Emily gave a bitter smile, "Do I get to have any?""She did try to harm you," Logan sighed, "Sophia seems like a completely different person now. I used to think she was gentle. How could she suddenly become so violent, even daring to throw acid at someone? I'm very disappointed."Emily spoke softly, "People don't change overnight. Sometimes, we only see what they want us to see. If we don't interact with them closely, we might believe they are the persona they present."There was a hidden meaning in her words, and Logan caught on."I'll make sure you get

175 Ambiguous Photos
Olivia hugged her tightly. "I went to the Hilton Hotel this morning to find you, but Allen Parker said you no longer live there. Where did you go?"As they chatted, they walked into the TV station.Emily explained her mother's situation to Olivia."F.uck, Grace and Sophia are shameless! Grace was a homewrecker, and now Sophia is one too—one stole your mom's husband, and the other stole yours!"Emily was also angry. "Maybe life is just a cycle."Lucas had a heavy workload today. He got his makeup done in the morning, started recording a variety show at noon, and didn't finish until almost midnight.Emily stayed backstage the entire time. Lucas would come back occasionally to touch up his makeup.Olivia, as his assistant, stayed with him on set. She watched him from the audience, making Lucas visibly uncomfortable.Being watched by the boss's future wife was quite stressful.The host remarked, "Lucas, you seem a bit tense today. Are you not familiar with the environment?"Lucas wiped th

176 An Eye for an Eye
Grace raised her phone, showing the photos they were talking about.Emily looked at the photo. The image depicted her and Lucas in the TV station's makeup room.Lucas was half-lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, resting, while Emily was carefully covering him with a blanket.Emily instantly understood.This was Grace's counterattack.Her scandal with Lucas had previously been fabricated by Sophia, but the incident reversed quickly. The media's attention shifted to Sophia, and with Amanda's efforts, the rumor about her and Lucas didn't spread much.The consensus was that contact between a celebrity and their makeup artist was normal, and there was nothing ambiguous about it.But this time, things were a bit different.Last time, Lucas had helped her when she almost fell, which could be interpreted as a gentlemanly act. But this photo seemed more ambiguous.Lucas was sleeping, and Emily was covering him with a blanket. Their relationship appeared quite intimate. If someone wanted to

177 You'll Get Hurt
They were saying it loud enough for Emily to hear.Logan's publicly acknowledged daughter was still Sophia, not her. Sophia had an education and appeared respectable, whereas Emily hadn't attended college and had lived in the slums. So Logan chose Sophia to attend important occasions over her.Logan went out first to get the car, while Grace and Sophia followed slowly, whispering."Mom, who exactly is the person Dad is taking us to meet?""I'm not too sure. I heard from Logan that this mysterious boss is Mr. Taylor's benefactor. He's a very wealthy figure who usually stays low-key and doesn't appear in public much. Mr. Taylor's success in beating Nathan and securing the shopping mall project was thanks to his support."Sophia couldn't help but marvel, "Then he must be even richer than Nathan!""Of course," Grace glanced at Sophia. They both had the same thing on their minds. She held Sophia's hand and patted it gently, "I did some digging last night. This mysterious boss is a young ma

178 A Gift
Emily carefully opened the cap of the dishwashing liquid in the kitchen and took a sniff.Sure enough, the distinctive smell of sulfuric acid hit her nose.Dishwashing liquid and concentrated sulfuric acid were both transparent, viscous liquids that looked the same on the surface.If she had actually used the liquid and gotten it on her hands, she would have been seriously injured.Moreover, Sophia could have framed her. She could say that Emily secretly stored concentrated sulfuric acid and that she hurt her hands while handling it when they weren't home. Then, she could blame Herry's injury on Emily as well.Sophia was truly malicious!No wonder today's dishwashing liquid was different from the usual one. The previous ones were in plastic bottles, but this one was in a stainless steel bottle. Concentrated sulfuric acid can corrode plastic but can only form a dense oxide layer on steel, preserving the liquid inside.Emily sneered. She had mocked Grace for lacking basic chemical knowl

179 Hypocrisy
Grace opened the door and asked, "Who are you?""Good evening, Mrs. Morgan. My name is Dylan, and my boss sent me to deliver some clothes."Standing outside was a tall, handsome man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He carried himself with great elegance, speaking in a refined manner, exuding an air of respectability.Grace, upon seeing him, couldn't help but respond more deferentially, "And who are these clothes for?"Dylan smiled and replied, "They are for Mr. Morgan's daughter.""Sophia?" Grace's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed. "Could your boss be... Mr. Taylor's big boss?"Dylan confirmed, "Yes, my boss is the largest shareholder of the Taylor Group. He is the one who funded Mr. Taylor for the shopping mall project. Is Mr. Morgan's daughter at home?"Grace couldn't contain her excitement and quickly called out, "Sophia, come here! The big boss has sent clothes for you!"Sophia was stunned for a few seconds but was soon overwhelmed with joy and rushed over, "Are these really for me?

180 His Parents
Logan nodded with satisfaction. "Alright, we'll go public with our relationship whenever you feel ready."Emily, holding the box, climbed the stairs with a light step. Midway, she paused, "Oh, by the way..."Logan quickly asked, "What is it? Go ahead.""I wanted to mention to Mrs. Morgan that the new dishwashing liquid in the kitchen isn't very good. I think the previous one was better."Logan now regarded her words as gospel. He immediately turned to Grace, "You changed the dishwashing liquid? What did you switch it to?"He started to head toward the kitchen.Grace's face turned pale, and she hurriedly pulled him back, "Dear, the kitchen isn't a place for an artist like you. I got it. I'll change the dishwashing liquid back immediately."Logan nodded, "Alright, make sure to change it. Also, don't let Emily wash dishes anymore. She's practically a special guest. We should treat her well, not make her wash dishes."Grace forced a smile, "Got it. I'll wash the dishes from now on.""Have
