Logan had barely stepped into the hall when he felt the weight of a hundred eyes land on him. The grandeur of the Rivens Health Care Foundation inauguration was nothing short of spectacular—chandeliers glowed with golden light, the scent of expensive champagne filled the air, and the chatter of New York’s elite hummed in the background. Yet, the moment he arrived, the warmth in the room seemed to shift.The whispers started almost immediately."Look at him—finally decided to show up.""Late as usual. Sophia deserves better.” “I still don’t understand why Sophia will settle for someone like this.”"He barely fits in here. A complete psycho.”Logan ignored the murmurs, but his stomach twisted. He wasn’t one to care about appearances, but tonight, the judgment weighed heavier than usual. Maybe because deep down, he was already beginning to accept the fact that he was nothing but a complete outsider in this world of wealth and influence—a world Sophia seemed to glide through effortlessly

Sophia had checked the time on her wristwatch severally, wondering what had kept Logan so busy all day that he had forgotten that he ought to be by her side at the inauguration ceremony of the Rivens health care foundation.At first she had thought he was probably busy with work and had decided not to disturb him with calls, but as the guests started arriving one after the other, she became so angry. She remembered telling Logan not to stay too long as his presence was needed in validating her position as the new chairman of the foundation."The number you're trying to call is currently switched off, please try again later," came the repeated response from the network provider as she tried several times to reach Logan, and that made her anger boil even more.Just when she was about losing it, the door opened and Logan walked in."Where have you been?" She didn't even give room for any welcome greetings.********Ms. Chloe spent the entire day thinking about Logan and the fight that ha

The leader of the loan sharks, a tall man with quite an intimidating look, stormed over to the table where Jaime and Logan were seated. He had been looking everywhere for Jaime and was glad to receive his call earlier that day. Coming over to the meet with him wasn't to take back the money that Jaime was owing them, but to deal ruthlessly with him.When he saw Jaime with Logan, he had interpreted it as Jaime coming over with someone who'd fight alongside himself, and it sparked up the anger that had been boiling deep within him.Without a second thought, he slammed his fist on the table, causing glasses to rattle, and grabbed Jaime by the collar, yanking him forward.Jaime became speechless, not knowing what to do as the leader of the loan sharks shook him violently hitting his back against the hard wall. “You are tired of running, huh? You thought you could hide forever, huh?" The leader of the loan sharks growled, his eyes filled with rage like he was about to suck the life out of

Logan could see what Ms. Chloe was doing, trying to flatter him with words so he'd let his guard down. But he wasn't going to give room for it. He had made it clear to her that he was a married man, and the fact that his marriage contract with Sophia was still on, he didn’t want to do anything that will appear as a breach of contract. Moreover, he was really in love with Sophia, and couldn’t help but wish she’d see it for herself and reciprocate the love."Thank you," Logan replied, still not giving Ms. Chloe was trying to get from him. “Are you always like this, Mr. Logan?” Ms. Chloe asked.At that point, all he wanted was for her to just let him be. He wished there was a way he could reach out to Jaime to have the meeting taken to another venue, but he knew it was already almost becoming too late, and he didn't want Jaime to be in trouble with the loan sharks once again because of his own personal stuffs.Just then, Jaime entered, his sharp gaze immediately spotting Logan and givi

Logan settled into a corner booth at the bar where he had agreed to meet up with Jaime, scanning the room as he waited for Jaime whom he hadn’t seen nor heard from since he moved in to start living with the Rivens.Jaime had called him immediately after he had dropped the call with the strange number that had called him, and had told Logan that he was currently in need of some money as certain loan sharks he had taken money from were looking for him, and had threatened to deal with him if he doesn’t pay back what he owed them.“How much is the money?” Logan had asked.“It’s $20,000,” Jaime had informed him.“Alright Jaime, just call up the loan sharks and ask them to meet up with you at the upscale restaurant in town. I’ll be there waiting for you to help you settle your debt,” Logan had promised, owing to the fact that he still had Sophia’s debit card with him which she had dropped earlier while being harassed.Logan knew just how ruthless these loan sharks usually operated and since

Sophia, shaken and trying to steady her breath, looked up at her rescuer. In the dim streetlight, his face was mostly obscured by the cap, and his voice was gruff and unfamiliar.She couldn't help but wonder who this brave man was that had showed up at the time when she really needed someone to come to her aid, as she couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he hadn't shown up.A thought had first occurred to her that it might be Logan, but she wasn’t so sure anymore. The jacket and the cap that he was wearing had pushed away the thought, as he couldn’t remember Logan having such a jacket and such a cap.She had met those guys who had tried to molest her while she was waiting for a cab to pick her up to the venue of the pool party. They had pulled up in front of her in their flashy car seeing how hot she was looking and had offered to give her a lift, seeing that they were heading in the same direction.Sophia, seeing it as an opportunity to show off that she was being adm
