Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Unexpected death
Logan was in the bathroom for close to an hour, he just stood under the shower and allowed the cold water to pour on his body. He turned off the tap and came out dripping wet in a towel.He dried himself, changed into his pajamas and climbed the bed while checking his mail. Logan restored his old account with the name "001" and also made it public. He knew that people were still looking for his talent up till this moment and it won't take them time to start getting in touch with him again. He checked his inbox, just like he predicted, messages were waiting for him in his inbox. Two were from the company Ryan was supposed to restore their systems and websites before Logan hacked into it and uploaded those pictures and videos while three more were from different companies. He opened the first two messages from those companies, they were asking for his help promising to give him any amount he wanted as long as those things could be removed with an explanation so that their companies
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law New Beginning
One month later...It has been a month since the demise of Grandpa Hilton. He left a note blaming himself for everything that happened and asked Charles Hilton and Ava for forgiveness including Logan. In his letter, he stated that he wouldn't be happy if he lived knowing that he wouldn't have a good relationship with his son again and their family name was already in the mud because of him.His death was a surprise to Logan but it didn't hurt him as much as his family. Maybe it was his way of paying for his sin, Logan didn't have to kill him, he died on his own."You are going to see sister-in-law today?" Daryl asked as Logan sat down at the dining table with them. Logan nodded his head. After Valentina and her father left, Logan has been managing his companies as the CEO. He goes to work like every other boss and does his responsibilities at the office. Valentina became a good friend of his before they left although she didn't stop being flirtatious with him. They talk on the phone
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law First encounter
From the clamouring sound of music blasting in the background and the noise of so many people, there was a look of dissatisfaction on Logan's face. He so much hate clubs! "Just one of us can be here, do I need to be here too?" he asked, loud enough for his brother seated beside him to hear. "I know you don't like places like this but you definitely have to stay for a little while, I only came to keep your company. We can't leave when we just came in, Mr Moore will think otherwise, he gave you a special invitation in here remember? And he's someone we need to complete our mission" Daryl explained. "A few more minutes and I will be out of here" Logan said with a tone of finality. Knowing the kind of person his brother is, Daryl knew that he is really going to keep to his word. Just in time, the organizer of the club showed up in front of them. "I am so sorry I am just coming to you now Blue, I hope you won't hold it against me" Mr Moore said while approaching them. Instead of reply
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law The contract
"What?" Logan asked unsure of whether he heard her right or not. If she just asked him to marry her, then she's loose in the head. "Don't get me wrong, it will be a contract marriage. Your pay will be nothing less than fifty million dollars, you can negotiate if you want. I won't ask you to be my contracted husband if it's not important, you don't have money but you are good looking at least" Logan watch her verbalize her opinion with kin interest. If only she knew that he is capable of providing the money she is offering to him in ten thousand places, if only she is aware of how powerful he is, she wouldn't be able to stand in front of him and even bat her lashes. But then, he began to wonder why she will want to go into a contract marriage with a stranger at that. "I don't even know you, what makes you think that I will go into that kind of contract with you?" he asked out of the blue. "You need money, please just help me out. I don't think I can cope with this anymore, I really
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Married
'Hi, this is Ava and here is the contract. You can go over it, if there's anything you don't like, we can change it. Do not forget, we will be meeting at the city hall to register our marriage by 2pm' That was the message she sent to Logan with a file attached to it. After going through it, everything was fair enough to him but their living arrangement wasn't mentioned. 'got it' he replied back. They will probably talk about it when they meet, it's not something he should waste his time on right now when he has things to do. Once he was done, he placed his phone in his pocket and got out of the car, walking majestically into the house. "So is there anything you need to report to me?" Logan asked Alfred on getting inside. "De Coster is still fuming about the new rules you adopted, I learnt that he is planning on an attack in form of protest. Should I take care of him before then?" Alfred asked and Logan shook his head. He had been targeted many times in the past, nothing of such c
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Meeting the in-laws
Just as predicted by Logan, at exactly fifteen minutes later, they arrived at the apartment. The both of them looked around the place. To Logan, it looks ordinary just like he wanted and to Ava, the apartment is too small. Logan entered the code and they stepped into the living room. Ava looked around, it's really small but so neat, it's hard to believe that someone lives here because of how clean it is. "There are four bedrooms in here, the first one is mine and the rest are empty. We can go check them out and you can also choose anyone you like" Ava nodded her head and followed him to the rooms. There were no much things in his room but it's tidy enough, Ava didn't end up picking someone that can't take care of himself and his environment, she is at least grateful for that. The other rooms are somehow spacious. "What do you think?" Logan questioned"Compared to mine, your place is way too small but not stuffy. I have never stayed in a place like this but I can try adjust, it's
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Married to a pauper
"Grandpa please" Ava pleaded but it fell on deaf ears. "I know you married her because you are interested in my family's wealth, do you also think that I will make you run my companies in the future just because you are holding the position of a husband? You don't even have a background" the old man screamed at Logan who was trying so hard to control himself. He doesn't have a background? What a joke! He had expected this kind of reaction from the beginning but Logan didn't know that they will despise him this much. "You don't even have a job, you are just a poor orphan who is after nothing but the money he didn't work for. You don't have a life young man, people will talk about my family if my granddaughter gets married yesterday,and I ask her to file a divorce the next day, that is the only reason I am not sending you away but do not think of running away with my family's money, you won't be in charge of anything that's huge to the company" he added loathingly then turned to Ava
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Stephen Cole
Logan almost cringed on hearing that, how will it feel working in your in-laws company? Especially the ones that doesn't like you at all. They will turn him into a puppet. "I will have to decline, don't worry, I definitely won't do menial jobs that will belittle your family's status" he replied confidently. Logan doesn't need to work in the first place, he only said that to put her mind at ease. "Okay" Ava replied and they ate silently without any of them talking until they were done. "We have to create house rules so that no one will trespass against each other, in other words, you should write list of the things you hate and like and I will also write mine. We will review them tomorrow but right now, the only thing I want to do is sleep" Logan glanced at his wrist watch the moment he said that. It was just 6:21pm, how can she want to sleep this early? "Okay, that's a good night then" he said to her, she nodded her head and left. After clearing the table and not having anything e

Apologies, forgiveness and a request
By the time Logan got home, everyone was already having dinner. "You are late Blue, have you had dinner?" Daryl asked upon seeing Logan entering into the kitchen. "Not yet, maybe later" he replied and grabbed a bottle of water to drink. "What's the difference between later and now? You might even forget to eat later, so why don't you join us now let's have dinner together. Come on" Daryl persuaded. Seeing everyone's attention on him, Logan felt defeated and sent to sit at the table with them. The maids served his food and he began eating. "How was your first day? Did the lady trouble you?" Daryl questioned. He'd be the only one who would always bombard Logan with unending questions that no one else would. "I don't even want to talk about it, I have to do it just for a year" Logan replied and everyone on the table began coughing. "A year?" Alfred blurted out the question. Realization dawned on Logan and his mouth curved into an 'O' His thoughts were being invaded even as he was

Take her back
"I need to take this call" Logan raised his phone in the air. Valentina nodded and stood up from his chair to a more quiet place with his brows furrowed in surprise. Just how fast does he recover? It was just yesterday or two days back that Logan told Doctor John about the injection."To what do I owe this surprise call from you, Mr Hilton Gardener?" Logan called. He could hear the steady breath of Grandpa Hilton from the other end of the phone. His breath was steady but a little ruffled. A"Logan" Grandpa Hilton called in a faint tone, Logan barely managed to hear his name. "I am Mr Weston to you, I am no longer your grandson-in-law so stick to formalities when talking to me" Logan fired. If there is anyone he hates most in the Hilton family, that will be Grandpa Hilton. He is the most dark-hearted person among them. "Why did you call me? Do you want more of the injection? Or are you sad that you haven't seen me in days?" Logan mocked. Grandpa Hilton let out a deep sigh. It was obv

A call
Logan started at Valentina as if she just said something impossible, he was not sure if he heard her right or probably, he was probably the one reading meanings to it. "What?" He queried. "I am very certain you heard what I said anyway. I want us to be friends, can't I ask for that much?" Valentina questioned feeling disappointed. "Why will you want to be friends with me? For what reason?" He threw the question at her. There should be no reason she would want to be friends with her, they are total strangers who are meeting for the second time today. "Because I want to communicate with you, maybe if we are friends, you will talk more" Valentina gave her reason. Logan nodded his head without saying anything. Right from childhood, he never had any friends. He was the type of kid that everyone avoided because of his physical strength. He usually beats people who find him trouble without giving them another chance to do that again. That made a lot of people his age stay far away from

Let's be friends
Logan had to turn back to see who shot the gun. The gun was shot to the ceiling Andrea, it was just to scare Kelvin and it worked. He laid down flat on the floor together with his sun. Logan walked up to the little boy, picked him up from the floor, and smiled widely at him. "What is your name?" Logan questioned. "Jesse" The boy answered in a baby accent, he couldn't even pronounce well."Jesse" Logan repeated it with a nod. He took a sweet from his pocket and handed it to him then turned to Kelvin with a smirk."I am curious to know how you will react if I pull a bullet into your son's skull right now. He will die because of your stupidity. Don't blame me when that happens" Logan threatened knowing very well that he couldn't do that. "Please don't hurt my son, I am sorry I will pay back your money now" Kelvin pleaded. Everyone in his family will abandon him if anything happens to Jesse because of him."Ah! I thought you said you didn't have the money to pay babe but now you have

Bodyguard
"What do you say Blue? Do you want to be my daughter's bodyguard?" Mr Valdez questioned. Logan had to agree by nodding his head. "Don't bring her with you next time, I will turn down your request then Mr. Valdez" Logan retorted plainly. He only accepted because it was the first time he was asking him for personal help. If it were to be another person, Logan would have disagreed immediately. "Thank you Blue, I promise I won't bring her along again. You can start coming from tomorrow, I will reward you hugely" Mr Valdez excitedly mentioned. Of course, Logan is already aware of that. No other client pays more than Mr Valdez regardless of the kind of work carried out for him. "Is that all for now?" Logan pointed out. "Oh yes, but I would love you to have something before you leave. We ordered lunch not quite long ago, I am sure you haven't eaten. You always forget to eat Blue" Mr Valdez began calling out to his Valentina before Logan could say anything. "Give him food to eat before

"There is one thing I hate, that is making me repeat myself. Do you not hear the question I just asked? Alex David?" Logan called as he touched his nose in annoyance. Logan entered his car and sat down. "I am sorry Sir but I don't have the video any longer, someone broke into my home and took it away. I haven't been able to reach him after then, I promise you, give me more time and I will get it for you" Alex pleaded. "Do you think I have the time to be waiting for you? I have other things to do than waste my time on you. You don't have to worry about it anymore, just prepare for your funeral because you will end up taking your life when I am done with you" Logan promised. He ended the call right after that without giving Alex the room to speak again just like he did the last time. He dropped his phone and drove out of the vicinity. He didn't get to know the main reason why Ava wanted to see him because he spoke of her past. She didn't request to talk with him just to apologize to

Shame and embarrassment
Logan tapped his foot impatiently as he waited for her to speak but didn't hear anything from her. Ava just stared down while fidgeting and opening and closing her mouth like someone who is lip-syncing. She was truly scared for some reasons Logan wasn't sure about. The old Ava wouldn't hesitate to say anything to him with her little smart mouth, where did that Ava go to? Has the fact that their lives are not the same anymore sunk into her brain and changed her personality? Although it's odd, if anything, Logan never thought that Ava would change being her because she grew up that way. "I have other things to do Miss Hilton" Logan added. He checked his time to see that half an hour had passed. Ava's heart sank deeper in disappointment as he heard him call her by her surname. He is drawing the kind between them for her to know her limit. "What...do you want to drink? I will go and get it for you" She stuttered which made Logan baffled. Ava wants to order a drink for her. That's very
