Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Lily's Daughter

Memphis breathing quickened, and his eyes betrayed his mounting pank

"N-No, it wasn't me! It's a misunderstanding!"

Tooked at him and sighed softly.

"Memphis, with your experience, you could easily replace a director position elsewhere. We've been colleagues, and I know you're not the mastermind behind this. Why ruin your life for the sake of others?"

Ena, standing beside me, kept signaling me to call the police, but I shook my head.

it the police got involved, uncovering the truth behind the scenes would become difficult, and it might alert those behind this.

Ineeded to extract more information first U Luca was indeed behind this, I needed concrete evidence.

Meniphis squinted and pondered for a moment, then looked at me.

"Eva, you're Mrs. Harmon. Can you guarantee you won't call the police?"

"Why should t

I didn't want to give any guarantees to someone like him.

He seemed defeated, collapsing onto the floor.

"I'll condess. It was Lily who made me do all this. She said that if I could bring you down, she would become Mrs. Harmon, and I would be the Design Director. She previously bought the design drawings and tried to use my name, but didn't go along with it, so Tom took the "You were the one who released the virus and attacked me, right?"

I watched his expressionlessly as he nodded dejectedly.

"Yes, I was reckless. I have evidence that Tom received money, and 1 intimidated him into taking the blame Burly definitely has someone backing her. I heard someone callber and give her instructions"

sty eyes brightened. Indeed, there was someone else behind Lily

"Who is that person? Is It Luca?"

Memphis shook his head. "She said that person would control Harmon Group in the future, but don't know who it is."

It seemed like the lead was lost, but maybe not entirely

if Leonard was the only heir to the Harmon family, who could this mopterious person be?

Emma,siting beside me, frowned. She was clearly puzzled as well

Memphis looked up at me, and his eyes were bull of desperation.

"Mrs. Harmon, considering we're colleagues, please let me go and don't call the police. Just consider it a small mistake and let me potreally won't do it again!"

"One last question-why did you trust Lily so much? You must know that Leonard has many women around him."

There were indeed many women around Leonard. I had seen at least of them since our marriage.

This didn't even account for the small-time celebrities and models he didn't bring back. How could Memphis trust Lily so completely?

Memphis appeared embarrassed and cleared his throat a few times.

"I Lily from before. When she was in school she worked as an escort and hostess in a karaoke."

"What?" Emma exclaimed in shock

I was so stunned by the revelation that resuldn't replace the words

He seemed to have ghen up and decided to spill everything

Apparently, Lily had been working as a hostess even before graduating, making a lot of money. She had also worked as an escort, and Memphis was a regular customer "She gair a couple of years ago Theard she got pregnant and had a daughter, so we lost touch after th A sudden realization hit me as I connected all

The abductor's daughter being abducted, the person being threatened-how could Lily manage to take the little girl alone? it seemed too strange

If the child was originally hers and the abdoctor was her boyfriend, it made more sense.

By the time the police arrived, I had almost finished asking everything I needed to know...

Thad texted Emma to call the police, and since the station was nearby, they arrived quickly.

Seeing the police enter, Memphis began to struggle frantically.

"Eva, you're so dishonorable. Didn't you say you wouldn't call the police? You bitch! How dare you deceive me!"

1 looked at him impassively. "Trusting someone like you is the real insanity."

I quickly recounted everything Memphis had just confessed

"Mrs Hamion, thank you for your cooperation. We will replace the criminals as soon as possible,"

"The abductor, Simoni, has conlessed that he is Lily's ex-boyfriend, and the abducted little girls Lily's daughter."

I wasn't surprised by this information as it matched my suspicions.

But why did they jenonner katter having children'

Chapter 45 Dly's Dirighter

"It was because Lily attracted a wealthy man."

The officer's expression was a bit odd, and I quickly understood.

"Leonard?"

"We're not certain. We only know that the man's family name is Hermon, but we don't know his full name. Lily left her ex-boyfriend for a wealthy man and used her daughter to blackmail him Otherwise, he wouldn't have turned to crime." Although the officer said this, I could see from his eyes that he suspected the wealthy men was Leonard

But Lily's appearance was too mysterious, and there was still that mysterious man behind her. "Can you replace out when Lily caught the attention of this wealthy man? I need to know it it's Leonard."
