Home / Chapter 103 Are you hiding something from me
"It's impossible." Leo vetoes directly, "if that's the case, how could Emma know about the jade pendant, and how could the killer say that he was sent by Bryce?"

"If it's true, Emma was sent by Bryce. But it doesn't make sense at all. Why is she so bad for Claire?"

"I..." Luke is silent.

Leo doesn't realize what he said just now shows that he knows Emma has been bullying Claire. It's just that he doesn't find out.

Luke is meditating and doesn't find the meaning in Leo's words.

"Anyway, you let him go. Luke, even if we've been friends for more than ten years, you have to give me an account." Leo looks at Luke in a domineering position with deep eyes.

After a long silence, Luke looks up at Leo and says confidently, "Leo, don't worry, I will find the evidence for you."

"Then I'll wait for your good news. Otherwise..." Leo gives Luke a meaningful look. Next second, he seems to think of something important. He says with a cold face, "I hope you can stay away from that slut in the future. She is not a good woman and is not worth your approach."

Luke is silent.

...

With Juan's help, Leo believes that Bryce is behind the killer. Emma is in a good mood because Leo has starts to love her again.

One day, Emma is cutting fruit for Leo. Her cell phone suddenly rings. Emma inadvertently glances at the screen. When she sees the name, she suddenly becomes nervous. She picks up her cell phone and hurries to the garden.

"Juan, why are you calling me?" Emma looks around the garden for fear of being found.

Juan's voice is low and magnetic. He immediately says, "Luke now suspects you and investigates you. Be careful, and let's not get in touch for the time being."

He hangs up before Emma responds. Emma is terrified. She wants to keep talking to him, but she can only hear busy tone.

Emma stands with her cell phone. She is at a loss. Does Luke doubt her? Why? They've found Bryce. Why does he doubt her?

Does that mean Leo knows too!

"Emma, who are you calling?" A low laugh comes from behind. Emma is so scared that her cell phone falls to the ground.

Luke looks at the cell phone on the ground. He smiles mysteriously. "What are you afraid of? As long as you don't do anything bad, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking at the door in the middle of the night."

"You..."

Emma is calm. She must not expose herself. The next second she smiles innocently and slowly picks up her cell phone from the ground. "Luke, what are you talking about? I don't understand. I just come out for a walk and meet you."

Luke ignores her at all. He says directly. "Don't pretend. You're not the little wild cat Leo is looking for. Who are you? Is the person who just called you the one who sent you close to Leo?"

Sure enough, he doubts her!

Emma is shocked, but she seems calm. She pretends to be innocent, "Luke, are you ok? Don't talk nonsense. I'm the little will cat Leo's looking for. What's more, it was Leo who spent the night with me in the hotel that day. Even if I'm suspected, it should be Leo who doubts me. Luke, it's not good that you don't trust Leo."

Although Emma is smiling, her hands on her back are shaking a little.

"Really?" Luke doesn't believe Emma at all. Instead, he confirms his inner thoughts, "but the evidence I see is not like this. It..."

"Evidence? What evidence?" Emma is scared but she can't show it. She can only pretend to say, "Luke, what evidence do you have that I'm not the little wild cat? Don't insult me!"

Luke sneers when he sees Emma's calmness. I'll see how you pretend.

Luke takes a picture out of his arms. He shakes it at Emma and smiles mysteriously, "here's the evidence."

Seeing the picture, Emma turns pale with fear. She comes closer and finds it is just a back image. She immediately relieves, "what? It's just a back image."

"It's not just a back image for me." Luke smiles confidently. "It doesn't prove anything, but one day I'll expose you."

Emma chuckles, pretending that she don't understand. "It's better to be careful when you talk. Don't slander people. That's not good for you."

Leo stands upstairs and listens to their conversation. This afternoon is so quiet that he can hear the conversation.

Leo's white, powerful fingers beat rhythmically on the edge of the handrail. He looks at them and loses himself in thought.

Emma manages to get rid of Luke. The maid tells her that Leo tells her to go to his room.

Normally, Emma will be overjoyed to hear it. But now Emma is panicking.

Is Leo doubting her?

Emma comes uneasily to Leo's room door. She taps on the door and hears, "come in."

Emma opens the door and finds the room extremely dark. It turns out that Leo draws the curtains of the room and doesn't turn on the light. The dim light only allows Emma to see Leo standing in front of the curtain.

"Leo, why don't you turn on the light? It's so dark."

Leo doesn't stop her. When the room lights up, Leo turns and stares at Emma. His words make Emma shiver. "Emma, are you hiding something from me?"
