Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352: The Clown Who Got Exposed

"What are you doing here?!"

Selina smiled sweetly. "If I weren’t here, where did you think I’d be, Mrs. Perry? Did you really think I couldn’t get into the inpatient ward?"

Amelia’s expression soured. "Who gave you permission to enter?!"

"Well," Selina said lightly, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear, "there was indeed a doctor at the door who said I didn’t belong here. Turns out Logan found out Dr. Butler had been bribed to keep me out. Makes sense, doesn’t it? Mrs. Perry, wouldn’t happen to be the one who paid him, would you?"

Amelia stiffened. "Y-you’re making things up!"

Angelica quickly jumped in, feigning innocence. "Aunt Amelia hasn’t left my side. She didn’t have time to bribe anyone. Selina, you must’ve misunderstood."

She sighed dramatically. "Selina, you really shouldn’t speak to an elder like this, even if you’re upset."

That gave Amelia just the boost she needed. She sneered, "Someone could learn a thing or two from Angelica about manners."

"That’s the record of the bribe Dr. Butler received," Logan said suddenly, holding up a piece of paper and glancing slowly at Amelia. His tone was calm, but cutting.

"Mrs. Perry, are you absolutely sure your name’s not on it?"

Amelia’s face turned ashen. "You—"

"I’m sorry, Logan," Angelica stepped forward, pretending to be magnanimous. "Aunt Amelia was only trying to protect me. She was worried Selina might do something to hurt my baby. It’s not her fault."

Angelica turned to Amelia with a gracious smile. "But I know Selina isn’t that kind of person. Aunt Amelia overreacted. Let me apologize on her behalf."

Amelia gave her a grateful look.

Selina scoffed quietly. Angelica’s attempts to win favor were clumsy but effective.

Still, despite her whole act, Angelica didn’t even get a glance from Logan.

He cut straight to the point. "Mrs. Perry, you said you know the truth about the explosion?"

Amelia snapped, annoyed. "Logan, you just got here and can’t even greet me properly? You’re not even going to ask how Angelica’s doing? She’s been waiting for you forever—do you even have a heart?"

Logan ignored her. "Was the explosion caused by someone cutting corners on materials?"

Amelia’s face twitched.

Logan continued, steady and cool. "I recall the production zone was managed by VP Taylor. So if someone skimped on materials, it must’ve been him?"

He studied her expression as he spoke, calm and in control. "If not Taylor... then it had to be Manager Wilson."

Amelia suddenly flared up, "Logan, are you deaf?!"

"Ah, so it was Wilson," Logan said, now certain. "As for the bribe to Dr. Butler, someone will be delivering that receipt to the Perry family shortly. Selina, let’s go."

Selina grinned, enjoying the show. "How’d you know it was Wilson?"

Logan replied smoothly, "Wilson’s someone Mrs. Perry planted close to me. I expected he’d pull something shady eventually."

Selina’s eyes twinkled. "But something this serious—a whole explosion—couldn’t have come from Mrs. Perry herself, right?"
