While the Hilton was calling all the media houses and their partners, trying to explain to them, Logan went back inside and turned on the televison in the room. He initially wanted to enjoy watching the news but when he saw that the paparazzi were in the company giving Ava a hard time, he stopped moving for a second. He could barely see the head of his wife because she was literally surrounded by tons of reporters and this is being broadcasted live. Logan dropped the remote and rushed out with immediacy, if he could fly, he'd do that right now. No one bothered to ask him where he was going, no one even notice him leaving because of the tension. Logan had known that whatever he will do will affect Ava but he still did it, as much as he is interested in her, he won't forgive her family for humiliating him all the time. He entered into his car and drove off, not caring about it befiting her family's already stained image or not. He is not going there to chase the paparazzi away but to
"What? Don't you think it's too much? You already have the right to make decisions in the company since you are a shareholder but 10% shares?" Ava addressed as a frown naturally appeared on her face. Even as the vice president, she doesn't have up to 25% percent of shares. "I am a very busy person, you can call me when you are ready" Daryl said at the verge of ending the call when Ava interrupted. "I will ask my Dad to transfer the shares to you" she blurted, not bothering to think about it twice. She concluded that they will be able to pay back the money in two months and get their shares back. Meanwhile, Logan felt satisfied. He chuckled continuously to himself while watching them exchange words. With the amount of shares he has gathered in his in-laws' company, he will be able to overthrow them and take over the company completely if he want to.Logan is only laying foundation for the future, he will make sure to have everything in his palm. That way, his retaliation in the futu
Logan furrowed his eyebrow in confusion, what is he doing here even after Ava got married? "It's okay Grandpa, despite the fact that our marriage fell through, Ava is still my friend and I still love her as one. You can come to me if you need any little help, I am always ready to help" Alex spoke with his emphasis on the 'love' and 'friend'Although he doesn't know what their relationship is, if Ava will marry a stranger instead of him that's her 'friend' then, their relationship is messy. They definitely doesn't get along and are not friends so why is Alex saying that to gain favour from the Hilton family? What are his intentions? What help can he render when he doesn't have much in his account? Alex wouldn't have given them the amount of money Logan offered to them and he knows that. "You are so kind, I know I made the right choice for my granddaughter but this happened" Grandpa Hilton said, sounding heartbroken and Logan couldn't help but roll his eyes at their drama, instead o
The next morning came by quickly and just as he thought, Logan didn't sleep a wink. He was roaming around the house untill morning, he couldn't sleep since memories of the past were coming back as nightmares. "Why are you awake so early?" Ava asked, yawning and getting herself out of the bed. "I am not a morning person I think" he replied with a shrug. It's true that he wakes up early but then, that wasn't the case today. He just didn't find himself sleeping. She got out of the bed, heading into the bathroom. It was their first night together on the same bed yesterday and they just slept without bothering the other. Logan was seated on the chair in front of the mirror, all of a sudden, he decided to instigate her to see her reaction. "Some Alex guy was here yesterday, he claimed to be your friend" Ava froze on the spot the moment those words rolled out of Logan's mouth. She staggered and held the wall for support, the expression on her face changed into that of fear and disgust.
Without having to take permission from anyone, Logan left the mansion in the same car he was warned to discard. How can he throw something he just got away because his grandfather In-law said so? And if he had done that, how will he be transporting? Using public cars? He is not used to that, Logan can't even remember the last time he used that. Seeing that he still have enough time, he drove at a slow pace and didn't bother about being late. He will have to rest if he gets there before the meeting because it's still early hours of the morning. It's past 9am. About twenty minutes later, he got to the Blue Carter's mansion and was welcomed firstly by Clark, one of his members. "Welcome Blue, good morning" he greeted Politely. "Good morning Clark""A package arrived very early in the morning today for you, Alfred asked me to keep it till you get here" he explained handing a wrapped delivery for him. Logan naturally creased his forehead together on seeing that, he didn't expect anyon
After making the declaration, no one countered to it since they believe that Logan will take care of any situation just fine. They don't have to worry about him. "When is the general meeting with the other mafia families again?" Logan asked. "Thursday next week, by 7pm" Alfred replied"Please one of you should remind me of it next week, I know a lot of people doesn't want me there but I wish to attend""Noted Blue" Alfred replied, bowed and left the brothers to talk. "I hope sister in-law didn't starve you today? Have you taken breakfast?" Daryl asked sitting back on the couch. Logan haven't told him about moving into his wife's family mansion, Daryl will think he is crazy if he gets to know. "Of course I have, my in-laws were so kind to let me have breakfast with them" Logan replied, nodding his head. "Does that mean that they spent the night in your apartment? Why? Do they think you are going to run away with their daughter?" Daryl queried. "They think I will run away with her
Once Logan got home after the meeting with his members, it was already few minutes to five. When he checked the time, he knew that he had taken a lot of time there and reversing the time is not something he can do. When he got into the living room, he met Mrs Hilton, Ava's Mum seated on the couch with a women fashion magazine in her hand while the television was on, probably dividing her attention or focusing on one. She didn't bother raising up her head or say anything until Logan moved closer to her. "Good evening Mum" he greeted. Mrs Hilton raised her head, and dusted the dustless magazine in her hand. "I wonder where you went to, did you finally go looking for a job or you've gotten one?" she asked without having to beat around the bush and Logan got what she meant but why is she asking him that question all of a sudden? "Yes Mum, I went looking for a job but I was asked to come back tomorrow" he lied smoothly knowing that he won't get caught. "Don't do any work that will red
Everyone was already seated on the table when the couple joined them. "You come late even to the dinning table now? Your influence on my daughter is not welcoming" Mr Charles Hilton spat, directly speaking to Logan who unconsciously raised a brow. So everything is now his fault? Wow! They all are doing too much, way too much. "Did you see that father? He doesn't respect me" Mr Charles Hilton whined after seeing the kind of face Logan made. Grandpa Hilton cleared his throat and looked up to Logan who was directly seated opposite him. "I haven't seen you clean since you moved in here, are you flagging my order?" he asked, his face at that moment held no expression aside that of seriousness. He wasn't joking or spewing nonsense. Logan couldn't help but choke on nothing? Him? Was he actually serious when he said that Logan should join the cleaning team? That's absolute degradation. "What are you to talking about Grandpa? Was that what you discussed with him? How can you make your gr
