Logan, Agatha, and Esther arrived at Capitus International Airport. To heighten the authenticity of their plan, Esther
had been in a wheelchair since disembarking the plane.
“Grandma Agatha, don’t you think I look too healthy?” Esther questioned, glancing at herself on her phone.
Even without makeup, her complexion was radiant, far from that of a sick person.
“We’ll take you to the hospital right away,” Agatha said, reaching out to touch Esther’s face with an indulgent look.
“Once we’re there, I’ll take care of the rest.”
“Okay.”
At the hospital.
Agatha managed everything on the medical front.

okay?”
Logan replied gently, “Looks good.”
“Really?” Esther doubted him. She switched to selfie mode on her phone and asked, “How about ordering some
foundation online?”
“Vain much? You want to put on makeup?” Logan teased.
Esther clarified, “No, I just want to give myself a sickly appearance.”
“Who said being sick has to look a certain way?” Logan stood across from Esther, his warm gaze on her face. He
spoke earnestly. “Even sick people can face life positively. Moreover, you have me as your unwavering fiance.”
Esther was momentarily surprised, then laughed. “You’re getting into character so quickly?”
“Let me remind you, the criminals we’re dealing with are far more brutal, cold-blooded, and vicious than you can
imagine.”
Esther had never considered criminals to be good people. If they were, they wouldn’t be criminals.
“But your identity—”
Logan interjected, “What about my identity?”
“Shouldn’t the other side be wary of you and not easily agree?”
Logan explained, “I understand your point, but those people in the criminal organization will definitely welcome it.”
“Why?” Esther didn’t understand. She wouldn’t interact with someone like Logan if she were in their shoes. It was
only logical not to put herself at risk.
“Some men like to see fallen women reform,” Logan explained. “And some men like to see respectable women go

Esther more or less grasped the implied meaning. She looked at Logan with confusion and asked, “But you know
that I’m pretending. My kidneys are fine. If they…”
“You don’t need to worry about these things. Grandaunt Agatha will take care of it,” Logan assured her.
“I understand.”
Esther felt nervous and worried, but it also seemed thrilling. If she and Logan could personally catch this criminal
organization and expose them, did it mean she would get closer to avenging her father?
Logan and Esther remained in the hospital room, each busy with their tasks, yet the atmosphere was strangely
harmonious.
Suddenly, Logan cleared his throat and asked, “Esther, are you thirsty?”
“I’m not.”
“I’m stepping out for a moment. If you need anything, just call or message me.”
“Sure.”
