Chapter 118 Arden's Plan

Logan was furious when he saw Mark.

“Why are you here?!” he asked.

Mark laid back on the couch with his legs crossed, looking relaxed and elegant. “Why can’t I be back?”

Logan looked at Mark like the man was the thorn in his heart, the sight alone hurt him.

Mark chuckled at Logan. “It has only been a week after you took over and look at all this mess that you’ve created. Logan, you are really stupid!”

“What did you say?!” Logan’s rage burned fiercely as the insult entered his ears.

“What? Did I say something wrong?”

“Shut up!” Logan wanted to jump on Mark.

“YOU SHUT UP!” It was then Justin shouted at Logan.

“Dad…” Logan froze. It was the first time ever that Justin told him to shut up because of Mark, the grievance in him was boiling high.

“How dare you speak another word?” Justin’s eyes were burning with rage as he glared at Logan.

The useless son almost gave him a heart attack.

Logan puckered his lips and clenched his fists, he wanted to argue but failed to find the correct words.

Eileen watched from a side and felt bad for her son, she too dared not interfere since Justin was really angry.

“How did this happen?” Justin asked.

“I don’t know. A friend told me about this project but I didn’t know it was a scam. Dad, I was cheated…” Logan said.

“Are you a pig? Where’s your common sense? Why are you so gullible?” Justin scolded him mercilessly.

Logan was speechless.

“If you can’t do it, don’t take the job. It has only been a week and the company is ruined!”

Justin continued the scolding, Logan was as quiet as still water.

It was Mark’s first time seeing his father so angry, especially towards his precious son.

He sat there for the show elegantly, as if he was not related to any of this.

“I’m telling you, you better come up with a wait to deal with this, otherwise I’ll…”

“Dad…”

“Sir, sir…” It was then Mr. Wilde, the butler, came over.

“The police are here, they are looking for the second young master!”

Both Logan and Justin were confused.

A group of uniformed officers then came in front of the entrance.

Logan frowned at the scene. “What’s going on here?”

“We are from the Western District Police Department, Logan Pattison is suspected to be involved in a fraud. We are here to bring him back for questioning.”

“Fraud?” Justin asked.

Then, the officers went up to Logan and arrested him.

“What fraud? What are you people doing? I didn’t do anything, I was deceived! Let go of me!”

“Mr. Pattison, please cooperate!”

“Let me go!” Logan continued to struggle, he had no idea of what happened.

Even Eileen bolted up and bellowed, “You must have the wrong person, my son will never do such a thing! Fraud? Impossible!”

“We will soon find out if it is a mistake or not.”

“Let go of me! Dad! Mom! Save me!”

“Wait! What is going on?” Justin said.

“According to reports, Mr. Pattison has been selling fake antiques in an auction and we are bringing him in for questioning.”

“Fake antiques?” Justin looked at Logan in shock.

“No, I didn’t do anything! No!” Logan shook his head, his face was as pale as paper.

Justin could not stand back anymore. “There must be a misunderstanding!”

“We will soon find out about it.”

The police officers then brought Logan away.

“Dad, mom, I didn’t do it! Save me! Save me!”

Both Justin and Eileen watched helplessly as the police officers took Logan away.

The reporters were camping outside their house, and when they saw the police officers arresting Logan, the situation went out of control.

Eileen looked at Justin. “What now? What should we do? Do something!”

Justin looked as sour as he could get. “I’ll give Director Gordon a call.”

He then left the living room to make the call.

Eileen was left stunned on the spot. Her heart was pounding when Logan was taken away. She turned around and looked at Mark.

He was still sitting on the couch with his legs crossed as if he was an outsider watching a show, but it seemed like he was having thoughts in his mind.

Eileen clenched her fists when she noticed the nonchalance on his face.

Mark welcomed her stare with his own.

“Don’t let me find out that you are involved in this, or else…” Eileen warned him.

Mark smiled and did not take it seriously.

……

Back at the office, the already worsening situation exacerbated further. The news about Logan being taken away became the hottest topic from top to bottom.

Everyone was worried that the company would go bankrupt, they were worried that they might lose their jobs. Everyone missed Mark in a desperate situation like this.

If Mark was still the CEO, this mess would not even happen.

Deep down in everyone’s heart, they acknowledged Mark’s capabilities more than Logan.

When they saw the video of Logan being arrested, Lily asked Lyla, “What do you think about this?”

Lyla shook her head. “I don’t know.”
