Chapter 215

Berenger had thought he could play the peacemaker. But now it was clear–Scott had never intended to take Bella and Emma back. His target had always been Emma. And they’d realized it far too late.

Bella buried her head in her arms again. All she could hope for now was that Logan would get to the hotel in time.

“We can’t just sit here and wait,” Berenger said, his voice resolute. “We need to go to Sivro. Some things have to be handled in person.”

Bella finally lifted her head.

Odalyn’s face was a mask of anger and disbelief as she thought, ‘How could Scott do this? Even if Emma isn’t his biological daughter, she’s called him “Dad” for years. How could he betray her like this?’

“Berenger’s right,” Odalyn said, her voice firm. “We need to go to Sivro now. Just sitting here won’t help.”

Bella nodded, wiping away her tears. She had no other choice. “Okay,” she said with a decisive nod.

At the Arcanum House, Logan tiptoed toward the door, his heart pounding with anticipation. Just as he was about to slip outside, Yuna’s voice cut through the silence like a knife. “Where do you think you’re going, Mr. Jackson?”

Caught in the glare of her icy eyes, Logan’s confidence crumbled. “Uh, just couldn’t sleep. Thought I’d take a walk,” he muttered, hoping his excuse would sound convincing.

“Planning a midnight stroll?” Yuna’s gaze flicked to the half–open door, where Logan’s hand still lingered. Her tone was calm, but her eyes betrayed a hint of suspicion.

Logan quickly pulled his hand back, feeling a flush of embarrassment. “No, you misunderstood. I was just… doing some exercises. You know, working on my agility,” he stammered, though even he knew it sounded weak.
