Clicking his tongue, Logan huffed, “I’ve heard that something happened, so I came over.”
No surprise here, I guess. It had to be the driver who told Logan, but there was probably some information missed while delivering the message. Anyhow, Logan isn’t the
crucial matter for now. Gesturing toward John’s direction with her chin, Sophia said, “Husky, go on! You can tell Young Master John about what you just said.”
Lifting an eyebrow, Logan asked, “What’s your name again?”
Darting a glare at Logan, Sophia snapped, “Sit down aside and zip it!”
After glancing at Sophia, Husky obediently admitted his mistakes in front of John. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have allowed myself to be blinded by money. I should have listened to
my conscience, and I shouldn’t have taken extreme measures for money…”
Feeling her anger spiking, Sophia intended to reach out for the stick again. “Get to the point!”
Shaking with fear, Husky stuttered, “T-T-The p-point is I had b-been hired to w-whack Miss Gwendolyn. But I didn’t succeed and was hit instead.”
Hearing that, Logan, who just took a seat beside Ian, immediately jumped to his feet. “What did you plan to do? Who did you plan to whack?” Logan demanded, his expression
even more furious than Sophia’s.
Shrinking back in fear, Husky said in a raspy voice, “I regret it. I really regret doing it. I didn’t succeed anyway and got walloped myself. Look at me; here, here and here…”
Lifting his shirt up, Husky showed Logan the masterpiece done by Sophia.

Standing there, John had gotten a brief idea of what was going on. This man was obviously being instructed by someone else to do this. Considering the fact that Sophia had
called him over, this could only mean that this incident had something to do with him. Who was the one related to him and would do such a thing to Sophia? Needless to say,
John knew the answer to that question.
All of a sudden, his expression darkened. Taking out his cell phone, John selected a picture from his phone and showed it to Husky. “Is this the one who hired you?”
After taking a quick glance at the phone, Husky nodded. “Yes, she’s the one. She was really generous and paid me a large advance payment, which was why I had lost my
mind. I swear! I’ll change for the better and it won’t happen again. I’ll…”
“Shut up!” Sophia felt a flicker of irritation. “You may leave. Off you go now!”
With his eyes wide open, Logan roared, “Leave? This is a serious matter! How can he just leave? We need to turn him in to the police. This offence is simply no different from
house robbery. You’re not going anywhere!”
Gazing at Sophia, Husky’s face blanched, his lips twitching. “Didn’t you say that you’ll let me go if I cooperate?”
Frankly, Sophia thought that Husky didn’t have a bad intention. Besides, she didn’t think that she had lost out in anything, and she even got to practice her combat skills by
beating him up. If they were to go to the police station together, it wouldn’t look good on her too.
Above all, if this matter was brought to the police and got out of hand, it would only lead to involving Mrs. Constance in this. Once Mrs. Constance was involved, the scandal
between John and herself would only give rise to much discussion again. By then, it would be endless, so she would rather just let it be now.
Waving her hands, Sophia urged, “Just go! It’s fine. I have the final say here.”
As though he had received a special pardon, he dashed off as fast as lighting.
Seeing that, Logan cursed under his breath, but dared not utter a word after casting a glance at Sophia.
Getting down from the bed, she turned to John. “Mr. Constance, you do understand why I’ve called you over now?”
With a darkened expression, John stared at Sophia for a while before asking, “Are you hurt?”
