Chapter 161 The Devastated Jodie
Reba smirked, "Oh, don''t worry, nothing will go wrong! I''ve already arranged everything with the
media."
"When reporters spot Olivia and Reuben leaving the hotel tomorrow, you can expect some news
stories rted to this incident to hit the headlines."
"Solid Proof of Riley-Burke Family Union: Reuben Burke and Olivia Riley''s Sweet Date Hints at
Good News Ahead..."
Reba chuckled, "Once this news gets out, you can bet the stock prices for both families to shoot
up. Grab some shares at a bargain tomorrow morning, and in just a few days, you''ll have that
million-dor loss back in your pocket, won''t you?"
Listening to Reba, Victoria found her words increasingly convincing and nodded, "Alright, I''ll
follow what you''ve said."
Of course, Victoria wasn''t cingplete trust in Reba!
She had to take action to ensure her n''s sess!
Tomorrow night, she nned to set Max up with a woman using Reba''s name.
She would then record a video of that scene to show Olivia, hoping it would convince her to give up
of Max entirely.
In any case, she wouldn''t allow her daughter to align with Curtis''s group!
Unaware of Victoria''s thoughts, Reba stood up and said, "Alright then, let''s split up, each
handling our own tasks. Make sure to find a way to keep your son, Logan, upied. Our ns for
tomorrow night might getplicated if he''s around."
"Got it." Victoria agreed and promptly made a call to the archaeological team.
Soon after, Logan, who had just arrived at Jodie''s doorstep in the countryside, received a call from
his head.
"Hey Logan, we''ve made a new discovery here! There''s a piece of fragment with oracle bone script
on it. Since you''re skilled in this area,e and take a look, help us trante."
As soon as Logan heard ''oracle bone script'', he was as excited as Leo hearing about ''X-ring
Antibodies''. He immediately replied, "Sure, boss. Just wait for me. I''ll buy a ne ticket and head
back right away."
Ending the call, Logan noticed Jodie and her brothering out. At first, they were taken aback by
his presence. But they then secretly pleased.
"Hey, Logan, what brings you here?" Jodie still appeared weak and wasn''t feeling well.
Upon seeing Jodie, Logan''s initial excitement waned slightly, "Uh... I need to talk to you."
Jodie and her brother exchanged a nce, both feeling thrilled.

Jodie put on a show of difort as she approached Logan and said, "Hey Logan, what''s going
on?"
Logan nced at Jodie''s brother behind her and irritably said, "The team wants us back as soon as
possible. So, I''m here to pick you up. Go grab your luggage, quick."
After speaking, Logan turned and headed back to his car, leaving Jodie standing alone with her hair
disheveled in the wind.
What? Back to the archaeological team?
Even if he was here to bring her back, shouldn''t he help with her luggage?
Couldn''t he notice she was feeling unwell?
While she might have been exaggerating her condition a bit, she truly wasn''t feeling well.
After all, the artificial insemination procedurest night left her feeling as though her body had been
split open!
Jodie had no choice but to tell her brother, "Can you help me get the luggage down?"
The entire Cook family relied on Jodie, so her brother naturallyplied with her request. After
loading the luggage into the trunk, Jodie was about to open the passenger seat door.
Logan grabbed the door handle and lifted his chin, "Sit in the back."
Feeling devastated, Jodie felt a pang in her heart.
From the past until now, she often went on business trips with Logan.
But whenever Logan drove his own car, he insisted that she sat in the back, reserving the
passenger seat as Adeline''s exclusive spot.
Jodie wasn''t satisfied, so she opened the door of the passenger seat and coquettishly said, "Hey
Logan, I''m feeling a bit carsick today and don''t feel like sitting in the back. Can I sit in the front?"
With watery eyes and a pitiful look, she seemed delicate and vulnerable.
Her injured appearance was genuine too.
After all, she had taken off Logan''s clothesst night, kissed him all over, and even helped him...
In her mind, that counted as intimate contact between them.
How could Logan possibly refuse her today?
However, in the next instant, Logan''s face remained impassive as he said, "No, sit in the back. I
promised this seat to Adeline, and I won''t let any other woman sit here."
"Even me?" Jodie''s jealousy was about to drive her crazy, though her expression was on the verge
of tears.
"Yes, even you!" Logan replied firmly and decisively.
Jodie could only begrudgingly move back to the seat at the back.
After driving for a while, Logan pulled the car over to the side of the road.
Taken aback, Jodie heard Logan started speaking.
"Well, I have a friend. He got drunkst night and ended up sleeping with a woman who wasn''t his
girlfriend..."
