A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 179

"You know, maybe you underestimated me because you think I'm just a kid, and that's why you lost," Logan chuckled, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "I overheard your calls to the Boyd household asking for preparations numerous times. I didn't expose you because I saw it as an opportunity. An opportunity for my mom and Mr. Boyd to finally cut ties."

When he had said to Matilda, "Mommy, we'll be okay soon," she must have seen that unusual emotion flickering in his eyes.

He had played his part well, masquerading as an innocent child.

Ella had been outwitted by a five-year-old!

Behind the scenes... it was all the work of a child!

She recalled how Logan had deliberately manipulated her with the Boyd family's guidance. She remembered the odd glint in the little boy's eyes every time he looked at her!

Ella trembled with rage, "Who are you, really? Impossible—you're just playing tricks! Yvan won't believe you!"

Logan let out a soft laugh without responding and headed upstairs. His small frame seemed so youthful, yet his thoughts were far beyond those of a normal child.

Ella's fingers clenched tightly as she watched Logan ascend the staircase, the murderous intent in her eyes growing stronger.

If that's the case, this child couldn't be allowed to remain!

Sensing the vicious gaze behind him, Logan leaned against the door after closing it, slowly curving his lips into a smile as he thought, "Yes, Ella, that's exactly what I need—your hatred... your desire to see me dead."

The little boy clutched the phone in his hand, never letting go.

In a soft voice, he said, "Mommy, just wait for me a little longer; I'll be out to find you soon."
