She locked her eyes with his but she quickly looked away, averting his gaze before anyone noticed. Besides, she didn't want Mike to notice his presence. A part of her wanted to run up to hug him for refuge but the other part of her remained in one place.Aside from when she was with her parents, everyone else were strangers to her, she never liked to move close to them because of how distressed and uncomfortable around them. Strangely whenever Logan was around, all her anxiety goes away, she kept on thinking about how handsome he looked when he came in, though he wasn’t as influential as most people there, in her eyes he shone brighter than everyone there“Are you okay?” Mike linked his arms with her. “You seem like you are cold.” he asked after feeling her body temperature go down.”Bile rose up in her throat as his skin touched hers, now she wanted Logan to come and take her away from the man she was standing with. Her skin crawled as he held onto her, she was glad that she didn’
“Let go of me!” Logan yelled back at her. “Why are you saying I stole from you? Did you mistake me for someone else? I am Logan, Mia’s husband.'' He said the last part in a whisper because he didn’t want the others to hear him speak about his identity.He didn’t suspect what his sister-in-law was up to, he was rather in more confusion.“You stole my ring, why are you trying to get away!!!” She screamed at him like he was a complete stranger to him. He looked at her fingers and faced her back.“I didn’t take your ring. What would I need your ring for? Can you just let me go right now, we can talk about the ring when I get back.” He said because he was still in a rush to go change his clothes. He didn’t want his wife to see him in that state now her cousin is accusing him of stealing the ring.“You took the ring,” Melissa yelled to attract people since they were very far away from them. Mike and Mia were no longer in sight, Logan was a bit bothered because he saw Mile take his wife to
The guards bowed down and parted the way for Lord Nelson to come into their midst as they were trained. The way they were quick to form an arrangement created a fear in Melissa.While Logan was proud of the guards because they had been trained using the techniques he created. They were guards that had never undergone his personal training but were perfect with their moves.Melissa was so frightened as it was her first time seeing Lord Nelson in person plus the way the guards had moved was no joke. She had always heard about him. He was a strict and uptight man that took no nonsense from anyone.The maids at the Leinhart villa who previously served Lord Nelson often spoke about rules and how he treated them with sternness. Never did she know that she was going to meet him that way.A part of her understood her grandfather’s obsession with wanting to be in-laws with him.She didn’t expect him to come, she was expecting Mike to have shown up. A part of her quickly hopes that things won
Lord Nelson led them into the huge mansion, as they were about to enter the surveillance room, a man came out of the surveillance room.He bowed before he started speaking. “Good evening, Welcome to the Nelson's surveillance suite, I will need to check everyone in before you go in. if that is okay with you, please step aside”” The man instructed.Even though the house belonged to Lord Nelson, he couldn’t walk into that wing without getting checked.Lord Nelson, Logan and Melissa plus two other main guards who knew Logan's identity stepped aside.The other guards remained in their position as it was in the rules that watch guards cannot come into certain wings of the villa.“Alright!” the man said, then a huge machine came forth, “We will get started right away,” the man announced.Lord Nelson got on the machine and it screened it. Melissaa had grown up in wealth but she just witnessed another level of wealth that she had never seen.Compared to the Leinhart’s Villa, the Nelson' vill
“So, what have you been up to?” Mike asked Mia as he walked her through the private garden. She had removed her hand from his, and held onto her bag like she was scared of him.He saw that her body was repelling him but she was trying to hide it from her face. He didn’t mind because he could see that she was putting effort.It only means that she really wanted to be with him. He had taken her to the private garden because he knew that he was capable of doing anything to her if she tried to act funny towards him.Only the Nelson’s knew about the actual situation of the garden, no one including all their workers knew about it.“Just stuff,” Mia’s disinterest in talking to him was clear in her voice and he noticed it, confirming that she still hated him but he pretended like he didn’t notice.He wasn’t the type of person that she would start telling about her work, or life. She barely discusses her personal life with anyone, she tells her dad and her grandpa important things about work
Logan pounced on him and held onto his neck. “Get your filthy hands off her.” he growled and he landed a few blows on his mouth. He gripped his shirt so he would slip off while he was punching him.Logan hated it when women and children were being abused, but one reascal was trying to rapee his own wife, he was determined to kill him right away, he even had the guts to rip her top open, exposing her precious bosom.Remembering how soft and delicate they felt against his palm a few days ago, and now they were exposed in the open, that angered him and the blows intensified as he threw them at Mike’s face.As her cry from earlier replayed in his head, he got angrier and it made him want to bore a hole in Mike’s head.Mike struggled to get him off but he would, Logan seemed like he was ten times stronger than him. He was the strongest person he had ever come in contact with.Because of his grandfather’s military stance, he was forced to learn martial arts when he was younger and he was
“I didn’t get that. Can you come again?” Logan said not getting the concept that his wife meant. Did she mention a wedding? All of a sudden? Maybe he didn’t hear her right. That was why he asked her to repeat herself.“Let’s have a big wedding, I don't think I want to do this anymore, having to deal with Mike Nelson. I no longer want to compete for the role of the CEO.” she said, he could see the tiredness in her eyes.He was willing to take away everything that was worrying her.She didn’t want to have to deal with Mike one more time. She had not recovered from the ptsd that she got while she was with him.Mike Nelson’s presence always reminded of why she was always quiet and never liked to interact with a lot of people“Do you want to give up on it because of our marriage?” He asked with so much concernFrom what he had learnt about the Leinhart in the past few days, he knew that his wife was very passionate about her work and she applied all seriousness when it came to her work.
“Good evening sir. I heard you had rushed out this morning and that wasn’t on your schedule. Besides, I got an email from Lord Nelson already.” his assistant said. He had arrived at the mansion as early as he should but the maid told him that Logan had stepped out.It surprised him as his boss was supposed to take a day’s rest but he was out.“I was at his place earlier to sort some things out. Have you dug out all the info on Leinhart?” logan asked.“Yes sir. There is nothing much, from the last time you went to their house you met with the family and their businesses have been blooming well all thanks to your wife and her parents. If they handle the refinery project, we will be raking in billions before we know it.”“That is impressive,” He said, realizing that his in-laws' pride wasn’t built on nothing. They were very hardworking people. “Is there a specific reason why Lord Leinhart would want to work with Lord Nelson?”“He doesn’t want to work with him. Lord Leinhart is a smart
