‘Director Reed, where did these listening devices in your suitcase come from? Let me guess–someone else planted them to frame you again?” the security chief asked coldly.
The only sound in the conference room was Logan’s rapid breathing.
‘No… these aren’t mine… the suitcase isn’t MINE! I had no idea these things were inside!”
The chief gave a cold laugh. “Just moments ago, you explicitly claimed this suitcase was YOURS. Why are you changing your story now? Do we need to take you to an interrogation room before you’ll tell
he truth?”
Logan finally broke down. Covering his face, tears streaming down his cheeks, he cried:
‘These things really aren’t mine! They all belong to Bailey! I had no idea what was inside!”
‘And that smartwatch–Bailey gave it to me! Autumn can vouch for me. I honestly knew nothing
about this!”
After saying this, he looked at me, his eyes filled with desperation. I quickly shook my head in denia
‘The smartwatch was indeed a gift from Bailey to Director Reed, but I can’t confirm whether he
knew about the listening device inside.”
‘I only know that every time I suggested examining the smartwatch, Director Reed adamantly
refused, claiming it was his personal property!”
‘And my team members warned him multiple times, but he never listened.”
As I finished, my team members all stepped forward to back me up.
Seeing this, Logan lunged at me with bloodshot eyes, trying to grab my throat.
‘You vindictive fucking BITCH! You’re just trying to kick me while I’m down! You’ll pay for this!”
‘How does destroying me benefit you? Don’t forget, we’re still married!”
I calmly corrected him: “You’re wrong. We won’t be married much longer.”

In the end, Logan was not only suspended from the Translation Bureau but also taken away by
National Security for further investigation.
As for Bailey, she was placed on the wanted list.
The drama appeared to be over, but it wasn’t quite finished-
Logan’s mother came to see me, hoping I would take the blame for her son.
“Autumn, dear, I know Logan made mistakes and hurt you, but he was deceived by that wretched
Bailey woman. He’s still young, just starting his career. If this sticks to his record, his life is ruined.”
“How about this–you say you planted the listening devices in both the watch and suitcase, and that Logan knew nothing about it.”
“Don’t worry, our family will do everything to protect you. We’ll make sure you’re taken care of. Even if you can’t continue as a translator, you can take an easy position at our family company. You won’t have to work so hard like this, and you can focus on getting pregnant and continuing the Reed family line.”
“After all, you’re Logan’s wife. A household only prospers when the husband succeeds. You love Logan so much–making a small sacrifice for him isn’t a big deal.”
I gently pulled my hand away from Mrs. Reed’s grasp and spoke calmly:
“Mrs. Reed, I have my own career and aspirations. Taking the blame for Logan is absolutely out of the question.”
“Furthermore, Logan and I are already proceeding with our divorce. As for continuing your family line, you’ll need to find someone else for that.”
Mrs. Reed’s smile instantly froze, quickly replaced by displeasure.
‘Autumn, don’t forget–it was with my approval that you were able to marry into our family.”
‘Now that Logan is in trouble, you want to wash your hands of it?”
I remained composed and dignified.
‘Mrs. Reed, Logan is the one who made mistakes, the one who betrayed our marriage. We’re all adults here–we must face the consequences of our own actions.”

Chapter 8
“Besides, my achievements today aren’t because of Logan or your family. They’re because of my own hard work.”
“Out of respect for our past relationship, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you just suggested. But if you try any underhanded tactics, you’ll find I’m not someone to be trifled with.”
With that, I pulled a voice recorder from my pocket.
Mrs. Reed’s face paled dramatically.
But I didn’t give her another chance to speak.
I just turned and walked away.
Perhaps my different choices in this second chance at life diverted events from their original path.
This time, Bailey wasn’t killed in an “accident.” She was successfully captured.
After thorough investigation and evidence collection by the special task force, her identity as a foreign spy was confirmed.
During interrogation, Bailey. admitted to installing the listening device in Logan’s smartwatch herself
In the end, she was sentenced to life imprisonment for espionage.
As for Logan, although he claimed ignorance about the listening devices, the incident originated with him.
Combined with his multiple serious violations during the mission, he was fired from the Translation Bureau with a permanent ban from future employment.
