LOGAN .H. BENTLEY'S REBOUND CHAPTER 79
Bethany had never been broke her entire life, she had always been the girl who had it all, the girl who others envied and worshiped. She was the talk of town for always having money around her, Logan Hudson her ex-husband showered her with all his savings, Troy Reece gave her a lot as well which she slurged on designers, parties, galas and all. She has been living large from other people's hard work because she hated to work and now the universe seemed tired of her living that way, she had to start making a living for herself. This feeling was something she wasn’t accustomed to, and it was unsettling to her. She passed by some boutique stores and high-end restaurants where she had once dined without a care. The memories of those days felt like another lifetime. Everything had changed now for her, and but then the world was rotating without any care to her fall from grace. After hours of walking aimlessly, she found herself standing in front of a diner. A plain, no-frills pla
LOGAN .H. BENTLEY'S REBOUND CHAPTER 80
Bethany's walk home was long, her feet dragging over the concrete. She passed the expensive boutiques and cafes that had once felt like second nature to her yet again, but now they only mocked her. They were so out of reach, it was more like it was part of a world she had been exiled from. She had burned bridges to go back there as she never imagined in her heart that it could ever burn so quickly, and now she had to pay the price. When she reached the apartment, she hesitated at the door. Would Troy still be inside, or had he given up on her, packed his things, and left? The thought of facing him, of hearing more of his disappointment, made her stomach turn, but there was no avoiding it. She couldn’t run anymore. Bethany pushed open the door and stepped inside. The apartment was very quiet, the emptiness was suffocating. Her heart sank as she noticed that Troy's things were still here, his jacket draped over the back of a chair, his shoes by the door but he was nowhere to be

Logan who has been very busy lately with making research about the Fox, found a name of a man who works in an Iced food restaurant as he decided to pay him a visit. **** "What the hell is taking Garry so long Mike?" Joe asked. "Take it easy Joe. The airport is really far from here, it'll take him some time to get here." Suddenly Garry walked in. "Hey Boss, he is here." Sam said. "That was kinda quicker than I expected." Mike said. "Thank goodness!" Joe said and continues, "Mike you tell him whatever you need to tell him to go through with this alright?"

"So what exactly is the plan Mike? How do we make our way into the bank without getting caught?" Joe asked. "I've been studying that bank’s structure for a while now and I discovered, that the elevator down stairs is some how connected to where the black box is hidden." Mike replied. "I don't understand." Joe said. "There is nothing to understand Joe, all we need is to make sure we stay at the top of the elevator and not inside the elevator." Mike replied. "And how the hell are we supposed to do that amidst security guards?" Garry asked. "I don't know yet Garry." Mike replied and continues. "I guess is something we will just have to find out."

CHAPTER 208
Bethany sat in the car on a quiet road a few miles from the Bentley estate, her hands trembling as she clutched the steering wheel. She had driven here in desperation and Troy as well as Carter had flanked her from behind, but Logan’s guards had turned her away without even hearing her out. Tears welled down in her eyes as she thought about her daughter, alone and in danger. Her phone buzzed on the passenger seat, and she flinched, hesitating before picking it up. Rick’s message was short and brutal; “Time’s up. No freedom, no daughter.” ‘How did he have my phone number? Of course he is a notorious man. What's so special about my phone number that it would be too hard to get?’ She thought. Bethany began to sob, her body shaking as she tried to gather her thoughts. Logan wasn’t coming, he was too caught up in his own war to help her. How could she expect him to drop his own family obligations just so he could save a child who wasn't his, not to talk of one whom she had turn
CHAPTER 207
Patricia stood in the doorway of his study wearing one of Logan’s button-up shirts, her arms folded across her chest. She looked at him with concern, but her voice was steady. “You’ve been up all night, what's up?” Logan turned, his expression softening when he saw her. “I had to plan.” Patricia stepped closer, her bare feet on the wooden floors, even though it was cold she didn't mind, she then uttered; “Planning is one thing and wearing yourself out right before a fight is another.” “I can’t afford to rest,” Logan replied, his voice firm but gentle. “Malcolm won’t stop until one of us is dead. I have to be ready.” Patricia reached out, taking his hand and said; “I know you feel like this is all on you, but it’s not. You have people who want to help you. Damon’s men, the loyal guards here, and… me.” Logan’s jaw tightened. “You’ve already helped enough, Patricia. More than I would ever ask for, B But now, you need to focus on yourself and the baby. I won’t risk you being cau
CHAPTER 206
Bentley's estate was quiet but tense. The events of the night replayed in his mind: the ambush at the cabin, Patricia’s revelation, and Damon Salvatore’s shadowy intervention. Everything pointed to one undeniable fact, that this wasn’t just survival anymore. It was war! A soft knock at the study door interrupted his thoughts. It opened slightly, and Patricia peeked in. Her face was calm, but her eyes betrayed her concern. “You should be resting,” Logan said, setting the glass down. She stepped in, closing the door behind her. “I can’t sleep, not with everything happening. Not with you down here, planning who-knows-what.” Logan stood, walking over to her. “Patricia, you need to trust me. I’ll handle Malcolm.” “And what happens if you don’t?” she asked, her voice trembling. “Logan, I’m scared. For you, for us, for this baby. Every time you walk into danger, I feel like I’m losing a part of you.” Logan gently took her hands, his eyes softening. “I know you’re scared, but
CHAPTER 205
The woods were quiet except for the wind, but Logan’s mind raced as he paced the cabin’s living room. Patricia sat on the couch, her hands tightly gripping the edges, her face pale but determined. “We need to leave this place soon, Malcolm already knows where we are now. It’s only a matter of time before he sends more men to cause a scene or worse.” Patricia hesitated, then stood, her arms instinctively wrapping around herself protectively. “Logan, look here, running away won’t solve this. You know that as well as I do.” Logan turned to her, his expression softening but still firm. “This isn’t running, it's called a strategy. We regroup with our own men and plan our next move. Malcolm thinks I’ll be caught off guard simply because I am in the woods, but I won’t give him that satisfaction, hell no! They were the ones who started this, his father hated my father because of a grudge, he killed him and he paid with his life for it, so if this is what I have to deal with for spar
CHAPTER 204
The room was eerily silent after Logan’s departure, the reality or the fact that what had just transpired in front of him began to kick in. His father’s lifeless body laid on the floor, and his blood gushing out from his head beneath him. Malcolm dropped to his knees beside William, his hands trembling as he shook him. “Father, wake up!” His voice cracked, desperation could be seen. But despite all the tears and calling, William D’Cruz was gone, his now cold and blind eyes staring at the ceiling into nothingness. The shot was directed to his brain so no amount of surgery could bring him back to life. Malcolm’s breathing was no longer normal, it is more like he was hyperventilating as he clenched his fists. He felt his anger deep into his veins, boiling hotter than he thought possible. His entire world had just been shattered by Logan Bentley, his cousin, and right then and there as he knelt down beside his father's dead body, he vowed and swore to make sure, Logan pays wit
CHAPTER 203
Damon nodded. “If you’re set on this path, Master Logan, then promise me one thing: don’t lose yourself entirely. Your father wouldn’t want his legacy to be remembered in blood.” Logan didn’t respond. He simply turned back to the desk and pulled out a drawer, retrieving a small, sleek pistol that had belonged to his father. He checked the chamber, the metallic click echoing in the silent room. “This isn’t about his legacy anymore,” Logan said quietly. “It’s about vengeance and making sure men like William and Malcolm never hurt anyone again.” **** Days later, seeing his father's remains that was completely unrecognisable, made Logan feel as though he had not done anything yet. He was supposed to be planning his father's burial but all he could think about was William's dead body being brought to the morgue as well. He couldn't just sit back and let his father be buried alone. What was his offence, being really good at everything and being his father's favorite? Well that was t
CHAPTER 202
As Logan walked out of his room well dressed, he was no longer just Terrence Bentley's grieving son, oh that ship has long sailed he was a man on a mission, a storm brewing with the promise of destruction. The Bentley estate’s private garage housed a collection of cars, each a symbol of his father’s taste and success. Logan selected a sleek black SUV, its engine roaring to life like a growl from deep within his chest. He peeled out of the driveway, his destination clear: William D'Cruz's sprawling estate on the other side of town. Damon, who saw him driving away, immediately sent trusted men to shadow him. “Ready the men, make sure nothing happens Master Logan is that clear?” “Yes sir!!” They all ran off and began shadowing him, because his safety was their priory, should something happen to him, it could cost them their lives. As the city lights blurred past, Logan’s thoughts were filled with the memories of his father, his warm laugh, his stern yet encouraging words kept
CHAPTER 201
When they got home, they felt relief, but true to Rick's words, they had no choice but to go looking for him. Their child Hilary was nowhere to be found. “Hilary!” Bethany called out with every strength she could muster but her daughter was not home, neither was she at Mrs Grayson's place. She had been abducted. “Oh my God, Carter, the worst has happened.” She uttered. Troy, who was looking around for anything, any clue as to who had done this, he didn't want to assume the worst. After his thorough search from looking around, he saw a letter on the kitchen counter, he immediately opened it and it reads: “You feel you were wide in calling the cops on me, well like I said, you will come looking for me sooner than you realise.” “It really is Rick!” Troy Reece blurted out sith frustration as he broke a mug out of frustration making the couple run from the living room. “Did you find anything?” “It is Troy… read this!” He uttered and handed the letter to them. Bethany began sobbi
CHAPTER 200
“Carter, who is this person?” “We need to go to Mr Logan Hudson Bentley for protection.” “Hell no, there is no way I can do that.” Troy blurted out. But Bethany remained silent because Logan and her had resolved their issues or differences that he even gave her this job of modelling and she is more than grateful for that. “Well Troy, I also have a history with him because I betrayed his trust. It wasn't so easy for me to actually bring up his name, but if that is going to be an option, I am going to take it for your safety, and that of Hilary's… or the second option is to set a trap.” Bethany’s eyes widened, “A trap? Come on Carter, are you serious?” Carter leaned forward, his voice calm but firm. “Rick thinks he’s untouchable. If we can lure him out by making him think he’s getting his hands on this evidence, then maybe we can then expose him publicly. Catch him in the act.” Carter uttered. Troy rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “It’s risky, but it could work. Rick won’t ignore
