Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law What did you do to Alex?
Alex stood up from the floor, he touched his lips and saw blood gushing out. He chuckled and then laughed loudly only for a few seconds before his eyes darkened with anger. "Did you just punch me? You lowlife!" he screamed while boiling in anger. Logan also chuckled at his outburst. Alex referred to him as a lowlife, him, Logan Weston. "You do not have any business with my wife anymore, why are you still lingering around her?" Logan asked, holding Ava beside him. He could still feel her agitated. What might have happened between them that made her so scared of him? Ava is not one to be afraid of someone, it's not that Alex is that powerful in terms of affluence. "What? You have the audacity to call her your wife? Did you marry her or she married you? You should be ashamed of yourself because you are not suitable for her" Alex commented. Logan should have known better, these past few days that he couldn't restore his data or take care of the bugs, Alex didn't come here to bother th
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Dig their own graves
The slap was so sudden that Logan initially didn't expect it. As much as he knew that his in-laws doesn't like him, he never for once thought that they will use physical violence on him and it just happened now because of Alex? The same man that destroyed their daughter's life? "I ask you again, what did you do to Alex? Why did you punch him?" Grandpa Hilton asked again. This time, Alex managed to get up from the floor with the help of Charles Hilton. What is Logan supposed to answer? That Ava was raped by three to four men and Alex was the instigator?"It's okay Grandpa, the injuries are minor. I will forgive him for hitting me" Alex stated pretending to be kind and winning the heart of two blind people. "We never wanted you in the first place so don't try this thing you did today again, you are lucky you met someone as kind as Alex, if it were me, I will throw you in jail" Charles Hilton added and Logan scoffed. "He just scoffed at me Dad, your grandson In-law just disrespected u

"is it true? Did they really slap you?" Daryl fumed. Seeing that Logan wouldn't say anything, it must be true. "Those people are going too far, just why the hell are you doing this? Can't you call this quits? Not even our parent has slapped you when they were here, how dare them?" Daryl got more upset with each passing seconds. His attitude only made Logan chuckle, one will think that Daryl is the elder brother here. Logan doesn't know if he is being scolded or questioned. "I have already gone this far to quit the marriage now, I will do that in the future but not now. I definitely won't forgive them, you should know that by now. I will destroy everything that bring happiness to them, they will be on their knees and kowtow to me very soon" Logan promised."What do you want us to do to them Blue? I will follow your order" Alfred chipped in. "Nothing for now, I like the surprise you sent to them yesterday. Don't forget to deliver the second parcel today, it looks like they have forgo
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law What do they want?
Once the door was opened, Logan was the first to go in. "If it isn't Blue I am seeing" Luga said the moment Logan got in. He had a smile on his face, with a glass of wine in his hand. "Of course, you've successfully dragged me here. Do you think I will leave without giving you a gift? Do you not want one from me?" Logan asked, taking a seat on the chair by himself. He didn't wait for Luga to ask him to do so. "I am not sure I would want that Blue" Luga replied and dropped the glass of wine in his hand. "What gave you the audacity to hold my weapons after I have paid for them? Is it your wish to die by my hands?" Logan questioned again, making Luga chuckle nervously. "I am sorry I did that, I just wanted to see you. I know you wouldn't let me see you on a normal day, it's only right that I use this method" Luga expressed. "Why will you want to see me? Do I have a business with you? I don't like you" Logan replied plainly without having to sugar coat anything, Luga knew why too.
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law New personal assistant
The next morning...Daryl barged into Logan's room without bothering to knock or give heads-up. Logan was seated on his bed while scrolling through his phone. "Do I not have my privacy in my own home?" Logan asked raising his head up to look at Daryl. "Oh, I forgot to knock" he said smiling widely at Logan who glared at him. "I knew you would say that" "Good morning Blue, I thought you'd still be sleeping" Daryl said, sitting down beside him on the bed. "You already know that I can't sleep" Logan replies back. "I know, I thought you will be able to, at least once in a while" Daryl said. "Why did you stop visiting the therapist? I got a call from him yesterday that you haven't been going for therapy for weeks now" Daryl commented. Logan had to drop his phone. "There's no reason for me to, not that it's of help to me. Nothing has changed too, I still have nightmares whenever I manage to sleep so what's the use? Don't renew my appointment with him when this one ends" Logan replie
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Divorce him
"What?" the question slipped out of Logan's tongue on hearing what his father in-law just said."Did you not hear what I said or you still want me to repeat it? You've already resumed work, and your office is right beside mine. I won't tolerate laziness or tardiness" Charles Hilton voiced. Logan's shoulders slumped in disappointment, if he is going to work under his father-in-law, he wouldn't even last here a week because he will break all his rules. "But Dad, I don't think I am experienced enough to be your personal assistant. I am not sure I will do well, I don't know what it's like to be an assistant. I can just—" Logan was cut off before he could make a complete statement which will still not convince Charles Hilton. "If you stand here doing nothing while you are arguing with me, I won't mind deducting from your salary. I have made up my mind and there's nothing you can do about it, if you don't want to work as my assistant then, you are free to leave. I don't want you here in t
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law Prosecution office
A book slipped down from Logan's hand unconsciously which attracted the attention of both father and daughter. Ava opened her Dad's office door to see Logan bent down on the floor. "I am sorry, I tripped over something and everything went flying to the floor" he apologized and picked the papers he purposely scattered on the floor. Ava didn't say anything to him, she glanced at him and then turned back to her father. "You are really unbelievable Dad, you and Grandpa just want me to do whatever you say and I have been doing that all my life but I am sorry, I won't do that anymore" she screamed, glaring irritatingly at her father before stomping out of there. Mr Charles slammed the door on Logan's face, expecting him to knock but he didn't. He just opened the door and got in. The first thing his father in-law did when he got in was holding him by his collar. "If only you did not appear in our lives, my daughter could have been happy with Alex instead of you. You are not adding any va
Hidden Fortune of the Wretched Son In-law An employee and a son in-law
"Search and Seizure? What are they talking about Dad?" Ava asked coming into view while looking around to see the prosecutors. "I don't know, please take your colleagues and leave my company. There has been no case of murder in this company since the beginning of it" Charles Hilton spoke trying to sound defensive. "We will find that out when we carry out our investigation. I will bring the court order for you when next I come, thank you Sir" the man said and left without giving Charles Hilton the avenue to say anything further. Logan on the other hand stood at his office door with a menacing smile on his face. Seeing the distress look on his father in-law brought him so much joy that his heart can't contain. If only they are treating him well, this wouldn't be happening. Without saying anything, he went to his office and dialed Alfred's number of which he picked up after a few rings. "Good afternoon Blue" "Yes Alfred, I am seeing the work you did. You've done a great job, I thou

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

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

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
