“Find her, find her for me!
“I don’t care how much it costs or how many people it takes–we have to
find Emma!
“I need to find her, dead or alive!”
Lucas roared, startling Derek.
Just then, Derek hesitantly pulled out another set of documents. “Mr. Brennan, there’s actually another file I need to show you.
“We discovered this while investigating your wife’s whereabouts.
“It’s… it’s about Ms. Martinez.”
He then handed over the second file.
After seeing everything in the documents, Lucas felt his face
go numb.
It was all the evidence of Sophie framing Emma!
However, at that moment, Sophie, who had been watching from a distance, suddenly sensed something was wrong.
Although she wasn’t sure what was written in those documents, her instincts told her there was definitely a problem.
Sophie hurried forward and said, “What did you give Lucas? Did Emma give this to you?
“She never liked me, and I can understand that.

“If… if Lucas is suffering because of me, then I’ll just leave!”
After saying this, she turned to leave.

But she knew in her heart that Lucas definitely wouldn’t just stand by and watch–he would surely come after her.
But unexpectedly, this time, Lucas didn’t follow.
He stood there with a cold expression, continuously examining the documents in his hands, along with some video evidence…
Sophie’s dirty tricks were laid bare.
Looking at everything in the documents, Lucas’s face grew darker and darker.
It turned out that Emma hadn’t done anything wrong at all–it was all a trap set by Sophie in collaboration with her parents to drive Emma away!
Emma had been in the laboratory the whole time, working tirelessly on new product development, with no possibility of contacting anyone else.
In other words, she had no reason and no time to betray the company!
“Bring Sophie back to me!”
Lucas’s voice was frighteningly cold.

“Lucas sent you, didn’t he?
“Tell him that since he loves Emma so much, I won’t come between them.
I don’t want to be a mistress anymore.”
When Derek came to find her, Sophie still looked arrogant.

When she was brought before Lucas, Sophie was still full of complaints and even tried to act cute in front of him.
“Lucas, your assistant is so rough…”
Before she could finish, Lucas slapped her hard across the face.
“Tell me, why did you frame Emma?
“I know everything now. You thought your scheme was flawless?!
“Emma just didn’t bother to argue with you–she simply didn’t explain!”
Sophie panicked and stammered, “No, I didn’t do that!
“Lucas, you have to believe me. Emma must have fabricated this evidence to frame me…
After saying this, she immediately burst into tears, looking pitiful and heartbroken.
However, Lucas’s eyes remained ice–cold.
“Don’t I know right from wrong?
“Do
you really think I’m a fool you can manipulate?”
Sophie was terrified. She knew very well that dealing with her would be as easy as snapping his fingers for Lucas.
“Very well then!”
“Derek, get someone over here. However she framed Emma, do the same to her–make her pay double!

“Oh, and she was locked in the server room, right? Emma was locked up for three days, so lock her up for half a month!”
As soon as Lucas said this, Sophie was completely stunned and fell to her
knees.
“Lucas, I’m your Sophie. How can you treat me like this?
“Didn’t you stop liking Emma a long time ago? What’s wrong with me helping you make up your mind?!”
Lucas’s eyes blazed with anger.
“When did I ever say I didn’t like Emma? She’s my wife, and she’ll always have a place in my heart!
“I told you before to know your place–you’re nothing but a mistress!
“Take her away!”
No matter how Sophie screamed and shouted, it was useless.
She was directly locked in the server room.
Half a month later, when she came out, she had completely lost consciousness, becoming dull and stupid with vacant eyes.
The doctor said the intense noise had permanently damaged her brain
stem.
For the rest of her life, Sophie would never be able to regain her original
consciousness.
