Female Novel
Chapter 2154
In the end, his men told him that Leah's face was disfigured twice before her death. When the copsfound her, her face was bludgeoned to the point that she was unrecognizable. Logan sighed. "I thoughtI was hard enough, but someone out there went harder." novelbin
Ian quickly asked if Logan found any clues, and Logan calmly said, "Why should I? The cops aresearching for Simon, not me, so I pulled out of it."
Ian felt relieved. As long as they're searching for Simon, that's good enough. He just wanted to knowabout Simon's news, but he was still curious why Logan pulled out. "I thought you'd look into the case,with how curious you can be."
Logan laughed. "Once I knew the case couldn't be traced back to me, I let it go. I only asked my men tolook into it because I thought they would come for me. Now that I know they won't, I decided to ignoreit. The cops will do their job."
Since he wasn't the one who killed Leah, he pulled out of it. As a matter of fact, Logan didn't care howLeah died. He had a lot more to worry about in life. His wife's pregnancy and labor, for example. Andhe needed to get his kid a lot of necessities. That was a lot more important than Leah's case, and hehad no time to care about most people.
Ian grunted. "True. That's how you live a better life."
Logan still remembered that Ian had a contract with the company, so he changed the subject. "Yourcontract is going to expire soon, isn't it? So, wanna work with Lorraine?"
Ian was surprised to hear that. "Lorraine's running her own entertainment agency?"
Logan heaved a sigh and explained, "She did bring it up, and I think she's established one. The talentshows she invested in have made her a lot of money, and she probably wants to gain more, so she'srunning her own show now."
Most people had that idea. Initially, they only wanted to earn some extra money, but when theydiscovered that creating a celebrity would make them more money, they expanded their business, littleby little.
Ian hesitated for a moment. "For the time being, I don't have plans for that. Once my contract is up, I'dlike to rest. Even if I want to continue working in this industry, I'd like to work behind the scenes. Afterthis whole fiasco is done, I'll start planning what I want to do."
Logan had no idea what Ian had in mind, but he supported his friend. "I see. Just do what you like. Yourold man left you a ton of money, so you can do whatever you want. Your life is set." Man, Ian had ithard. He'd lived his whole life never doing anything he liked and had to be careful all the time. Now thathis old man and Leah are gone, no one can tell him what to do anymore. He can do whatever hewants.
Ian had the same idea. It felt like a ton of weight was lifted off his shoulder. "It feels like I've beenwalking a tightrope my whole life, and now, I can finally let go." Now that he had grown richer andstronger, he didn't have to worry about the public's opinion anymore. Only then did he feel that life wasworth living for. No one could control him anymore. Once his contract was up, he would be free. Then,he would take Cindy and live a better life.
Logan was quiet for a few moments. Then, he asked Ian about Cindy. And to be more specific, heasked if she was pregnant.
