Chapter 206


    X said nothing but hugged Jeremy in silence.


    “I just feel apologetic toward you.” X’s eyes gradually turned red.


    “Don’t say such things anymore.” Jeremy gently let go of her. “Say, since she was faking her


    pregnancy, why wasn’t she exposed when she entered the detention center?”


    Jeremy could not figure this out. The doctors outside could be bribed, but after entering the


    detention center, how could she bribe the doctor in such a short amount of time?


    “Maybe she bribed the person who took her blood sample.” She had thought of this question before.


    Because once Emily was taken into the police car, she no longer had the chance to contact the


    outside world. Hence, the possibility of someone helping her from the outside was zero.


    The only possibility left was that she had promised the person responsible for her health checkup,


    and that person caved after hearing Emily’s tempting offer.

    After Emily was released, X had secretly hacked into Emily’s phone and realized that Emily had


    transferred fifteen thousand dors to an unknown ount.


    Thus, X confirmed her assumptions.


    “She’s really capable!” Jeremy scoffed before his cold expression once again turned into an


    affectionate as he looked at X. “You’ve done great. A regr person would have reported her


    fake pregnancy, but you didn’t.”


    “It’s better to avoid unnecessaryplications.” X smiled.


    In fact, the real reason was that she figured, rather than exposing everything and having Emily stay


    in the detention cell forever, it was better to keep quiet and let her continue causing trouble.


    Once she was done, X would just send her back in.


    That would not affect anything at all.


    Moreover, with these cases of bribing and cheating thew enforcement officers, Emily’s sentence


    would only grow more severe.


    “What about you?” asked X.


    “I want to be alone in silence.”


    “Then, I’ll stay and keep youpany.”


    “Don’t. I’d like some peace and quiet.” His mind was now chaotic because of Emily, so he wanted


    some time alone.


    “Alright then. Call for me if you need anything,” said X.


    Jeremy nodded gently.


    X slowly got up and made her way outside.


    Emily, who was eavesdropping outside, heard everything clearly. Her swollen face was now


    shrouded with murderous intent.


    This sh*tty X Quest was really good at feigning innocence. She had already known but chose not


    to expose her because she had predicted that Emily would frame her. Hence, she had deliberately


    kept quiet to wait for Emily to cause a scene and then embarrass herself.


    Emily started recalling hard, when did X take her pulse?


    As she pondered, a memory suddenly enlightened her. She remembered! It was the day when she


    and Tom got engaged. That night, Emily had gone to boast in front of X, and X had touched


    her wrist.


    Back then, she did not feel that anything was off, but now that she thought about it again, it was


    frightening! X Quest was too shameless!


    Hearing footstepse nearer, she let go of the door and simply hid beside it.


    The moment X came out, their eyes met.


    The murderous intent in Emily’s eyes grew more frightening.


    However, X merely red at her before simply ignoring her and turning away to head downstairs.


    Emily hastened over and pulled X’s arm at the head of the stairs. Lowering her voice, she said


    through gritted teeth, “You really know how to feign innocence in front of Dad. What do you mean by


    keeping it a secret because of the family?


    “You f*cking knew that something like would happen, so you intentionally beat me at my own game


    to checkmate me today, making me the one losing my reputation instead,” Emily added.
