Love Drug (Summer and Fraser) novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355 Only the Dead Keep Secrets

Just then, someone knocked on the door of the beauty suite.

Finished

Sasha and Liliah immediately shut their mouths and picked up their flower teas, pretending to sip calmly.

Autumn, wearing a gray beautician’s uniform, entered with a tray of fresh fruit and red wine.

She was Morgan’s personal beautician.

Autumn set the wine on the table and poured glasses for each of them.

Ms. Morgan, would you like a facial today or a fullbody treatment?

Morgan leaned back into the couch and cast her a disinterested glance.

I’ll take a milk bath later. I don’t need anything right now. You can leave. And make sure no one comes in unless I call.

Autumn nodded. Of course, Ms. Morgan. Just let me know if you need anything.

As she turned to leave, she discreetly pressed a small, nearly invisible recorder beneath the table with her palm before slipping out of the room.

Once she was gone, Sasha and Liliah turned back to Morgan.

Liliah leaned forward, anxious. Morgan, what’s going on with this whole thing? How is it being handled?

Sasha watched closely too.

After everything that happened at the Harper family’s banquet, both their parents had grounded them. And Morgan hadn’t been giving them clear answersjust vague texts and halfreplies.

The past few days had been torture. They were terrified the investigation might eventually lead to them. That would be the end.

They hadn’t actually done anything. Morgan was the mastermind.

Morgan shot them a smug glance, took a drag from her cigarette, and blew out a stream of smoke, her expression growing more seductive behind the haze.

After a moment, she finally said, My maid took the fall. She admitted to the whole thing.”

Liliah gasped. What?!

I

Sasha muttered, A scapegoatI get it.

LI DELL fran shiñad Du mine if she can fusend what if.

Morgan sneered. That’s why she’s dead.

Finished

Liliah’s eyes widened in horror. She was the nervous type. She’d followed Morgan in plenty of petty schemes beforebut this? This was murder.

She stammered, Yyou didn’tMorgan, you didn’t actually kill her, did you?

Morgan thought back to that night.

She had begged the maid, who hesitated at first, but eventually agreed to take the blame.

But Morgan didn’t trust her completely.

Only the dead stay silent.

She’d been drinking, and in a moment of drunken impulse, she grabbed a fruit knife from the table and plunged it into the maid’s body.

She still remembered the look of disbelief in the maid’s eyes as she died.

Morgan felt no guilt.

That maid had once told her she loved hersaid she’d die for her if needed.

So this time, Morgan had simply helped her keep her word.

She crushed the cigarette in the ashtray, her voice cold. Yes, I killed her. If she had lived, who knows if they would’ve traced everything back to me.

Sasha swallowed hard, her eyes darting to the tableno fruit knife in sight. She relaxed a little.

She gave Morgan a thumbsup. You’re ruthless.

Morgan curled her lips into a cruel smirk. Ruthless? What else was I supposed to do? Let everyone find out it was me who lured that bitch Summer into the warehouse and opened the freezer? It was my idea to freeze her to death.

She snorted. Too bad the woman and her baby made it out just fine. If she’d lost that child, maybe Fraser wouldn’t care about her anymore. Maybe he would’ve finally gotten over her. Then I’d have a shot at becoming the next Mrs. Graham.”

In another VIP beauty suite, Autumn entered and found a stunning woman seated on the sofa.

I placed the recorder just like you asked,she said.
