Chapter 364 What Happened
Logan knew the cat would be out of the bag soon if the Scott family started investigating. Unwilling to cause trouble for his buddies, he decided to spill the beans about what happened in Panzarath. “Someone predicted you'd get into trouble if you went street racing?” Peter asked, his brows furrowed.
Logan nodded, shuddering as he recalled Wynter’s prediction. “The lady only told me not to go. I didn’t expect it would turn out so tragically.”
Peter patted his shoulder, comforting him, “Son, you've had a fortunate escape. No matter who that lady was, you indeed owe her your life.” While Logan might have escaped death, the Scott family ended up suffering instead.
If this incident were exposed, they'd become the center of attention. The headline “Pregnant Woman Almost Killed by Scion’s Street Race” wasn't the kind of publicity the Scotts wanted to be associated with. Though it was unfortunate the Jenkins family had lost one of their own, they still needed to see the bigger
picture.
“Do you know where we can find that lady?” Peter asked.
The Scott family had already contacted Lucky's agency, and both parties had agreed to settle the matters
silently with monetary compensation.
However, Peter couldn't shake his worry that someone else might expose the incident, especially since it seemed someone had tipped off the ambulance.
Logan, concerned about implicating Wynter, shook his head. “I was angry because my brother was teasing me at the time, so I didn’t exchange contact information with her.”
“Your brother was there, too?” Peter asked, intrigued. “Alright, I get the picture now. Do drop by to see Mason sometime. As you can see, he's terribly shaken up by this incident.”
Logan hesitated. “Mr. Scott Senior, shouldn't we have some experts check on him?"
Peter glanced at him. “No, that won't be necessary. After all, the cause of this accident ended up dead.
Consider it a closed case.
“Mason is shaken up because he's too sentimental and soft-hearted. I'm sure he'll recover in a couple of days. Remember, Logan, superstition is unbecoming.”
Even Logan, oblivious as he might be, understood Peter's underlying message.
He was implying that the Scott family wasn't directly involved in the matter, so they saw no need to involve supernatural experts to examine Mason. If they did, that would suggest Mason was responsible
for the accident.
“You're right, Mr. Scott Senior,” Logan replied, lowering his head obediently.
“Alright, off you go now. Your brother will be here soon with the invitations. I heard you're in charge of

hosting the guests this time, aren't you? Well, I'm looking forward to It!" Peter smiled warmly and casually, as if the incident had never happened.
As Logan, Rupert, and Austin exited the Scott residence, Rupert bid the other two farewell.
“Bye, Logan, I'm heading home now,” he said wearily, his mind elsewhere.
Rupert, who usually drove around in a sports car himself, now arrived in a chauffeured ordinary sedan.
Lost in thought, Logan was eager to contact Ronan, confident he could reach Wynter.
However, Austin interrupted Logan's plan with a straightforward excuse. “Can you give me a ride, Logan? I didn’t drive here today.”
Logan glanced at the Scott family’s bodyguards around them and nodded. “Sure. I'm a bit concerned about letting you go back alone as well, I have to make sure you get back safely to your grandmother, don’t I?”
Meanwhile, on the second floor, Peter observed them through the floor—to—ceiling windows.
“Rupert and Austin... You're certain they didn’t see what you did, right?” Peter asked Mason, his gaze fixed on the three downstairs.
Hugging himself, Mason nodded with a pale expression. “They didn’t see anything.”
Peter tightened his grip on his cane, feeling frustrated that his grandson was the only one suffering while the rest seemed unaffected.
He patted Mason lovingly and comforted him, “Hang in there just a little longer. Your brother will bring Mister Novak back to see you soon.”
