“Are you really going to follow all of this?” Sam asked Logan who could not stop smiling as he was reading the contract all of over again. He found it funny, this was the most unserious, no, the only unserious contract he had ever read in his life. Mia didn’t seem like she could come up with something as hilarious as what he was reading.She was very stern on the side but she was showing him a goofy side. A tough CEO, a cute wife. That wasn't bad for him.Logan had never been with a woman, he had spent his whole life training to be an agent, and also working underground for his family’s company. “Why not?” He said, still grinning not taking his eyes off the papers. “I can do most of the things here easily.” Sam was surprised at the response he got from Logan, he couldn't believe that a man like his boss who called commands for a lot of agents and makes decisions that can affect the whole country is agreeing to follow the decisions his wife was making.The people that said love cha
“Is Mike back? Get him here at once.” Lord Nelson barked at his butler who was standing behind him. “Yes sir.” The butler answered in fear and hurried to Mike’s room while the angry Lord Nelson kept pacing around his room, reading the message he got from Logan.He got wind of what happened at the casino, he planned to not make an issue out of it but the message he got from Logan that made him check the garden’s footage spiked his anger level.Mike wasn’t a saint and lord nelson knew that but he could not disown him or kick him. He was aware of most of the atrocities from school but he chose to ignore it.Few minutes later, the butler returned with Mike who still had sleep in his eyes. He had returned late from work, trying to clean up the mess Logan had created in the casino so Lord nelson.“What have you done!!!!” Lord Nelson yelled. He had tried to bottle up his anger. “Why do you keep causing me problems?” Mike had been in Lord Nelson's care since he was a child.His parents passe
The night of the Moon Festival finally came for the Leinhart family. It was a special occasion, it was a night that they had been observing in their family for years, it started a way for the family members to bond and grow close, but over the year, it had become a way for people to come together to pretend to be nice to each other and show off how much money they had with the gifts that they brought for Lord Leinhart. Voices rang through the night as people mingled within the expansive Leinhart estate.The Leinharts, a distinguished family known for their wealth and social standing, were all seated in the grand hall, awaiting the festivities to commence. The room was adorned with elaborate decorations, lanterns casting a soft, ambient glow that bathed the space in a warm, golden light. A sense of anticipation lingered in the air, heightened by the significance of the night.Mia sat among her family, her eyes darting around the room, searching for someone. She looked very elegant, h
Melissa seized the opportunity to whisper loud enough for nearby ears, “Seems some people have their own sense of timing, don’t they?” Her words, tinged with mockery, were directed at Mia, suggesting that Logan’s tardiness reflected poorly on her. “He is not even hiding the fact that he has no regard for our family, what can we do with a man like this in our family. Grandpa, you should do something about him before he stains our name in public.” Lord Leihart was quiet and only took a sip of his tea. “Other son-in-laws that are from other reputable families have been here since yesterday but a nameless one chose to come late on the D-day. He doesn’t deserve to be in this family. It is a shame that Mia chose to marry someone like this.” Meliss’a mom said to support her daughter. Maliya was fuming in her seat but she had promised her husband to remain calm at the event and not exchange words with anyone. She knew that the best revenge would come whenever she returned to her position.
The room fell silent, the earlier whispers and giggles faded. Lord Leinhart’s eyes widened with genuine surprise and delight, a rare occurrence for someone like him.The Leinhart saw that he was impressed with the gift, that was the only time he was an happy expression since everyone presented their own gifts“Isn’t that the most sought after Jade that you missed at the party in France,” the butler exclaimed. “How did you get it??.” He faced Logan.The butler is close to Lord Leinharts so he was aware of how much his boss had longed to have the Jade for himself. It was the best gift that Lord Leinhart had received from anyone in a long time.It was a blue dragon Jade that was so rare, that is why the topmost people own it. “An old friend of mine gifted it to me.” Logan said. His answer spiked up murmurs amongst the Leinharts.“He has a friend that can actually afford a Jade? Maybe he is a unknown rich man, look at suit, it looked like an handmade suit that cost more than a fortune.’
“Let’s put a call through to the auction committee and find out who bought the real Jade,” The Butler suggested.“Do that right away.” Lord Leimhart instructed with a frown on his face. If Logan had brought a Jade to him, he could issue a fraud report against him and ask him to divorce his granddaughter right away. Though he wasn’t going to get his beloved Jade, he could marry his Favorite granddaughter to a good and reputable family. It was a win-win situation for him, except if the Jade was legit, he might have to bring himself to accept Logan as his in-law.“You should get a seat while we wait.” Lord Leinhart said to Logan.”He bowed to them then walked to the last table, not failing to give Mike a deadly glare and he drew a line across his neck. Logan joined Mia and her parents on the last table, he sat right next to Mia and she pulled close to him. “Hey!” She whispered.“Hi.” He replied to her. Then noticed how she was holding onto him, he didn't know if she was acting like s
Mike and Melissa wore the same disappointed look on their faces. They had expected the jade to be fake so that Logan will be kicked out from the eventsHe was pissed that Logan had been proven right and it dawned on him that he might gain more points with Lord Leinhart and at this point he might not be able to talk to Mia at all.He looked at Melissa who gave him the invite to the party. She looked like she was so lost in her thoughts. Melissa hated that her cousin still had the chance to compete with her for the position of the CEO, now that her boyfriend had brought a Jade for their grandfather he might just change his mind and make her the CEO right away.She knew she had to do something to change his mind or else she would lose to Mia once again.“The Jade might be real but it
As Logan walked quietly behind the butler, he wasn’t scared or afraid. He went there with the intention of having a conversation with Lord Leinhart.The butler opened the door for Lord Leinhart to go in. Lord Leinhart faced the butler. “Wait for us here.”“Yes, my lord.” The butler remained outside and shut the door after Logan went in.Logan bowed lowly before Lord Leinhart, it had been a while since he last bowed before anyone. Many rich people and their families were always at his beck and call but he was paying respect to Lord Leimhart because he was his wife’s grandfather. “Who are you?” Lord Leinhart said in a stern voice. “You may fool anyone including my granddaughter but you can’t fool me.”Logan thought of what to say, he knew that if he exposed himself as the president of starfall group, it could make Lord Leinhart discredit Mia’s effort in getting the contract. Also he could not tell him that he was a secret agent.It would be a ridiculous thing to say and he doubted that
It had been months since Logan and Mia had time to truly relax. Logan’s responsibilities at his family’s company had multiplied as he guided it toward new heights, while Mia was immersed in her work with the non-profit organization and preparing for medical school. Despite their busy lives, they made sure to spend precious moments together, late-night dinners, quiet walks, and shared laughter, but those moments felt all too fleeting.Logan’s parents, Charles and Evelyn, noticed the strain on both their son and his wife. They’d come to adore Mia, who had blended seamlessly into the family with her warmth, strength, and kindness. Even Mia’s parents and grandfather saw the need for Logan and Mia to recharge. That’s when the idea sparked between the two families during a casual afternoon tea: a surprise trip for Logan and Mia, a retreat where they could unwind, reconnect, and indulge in some long-overdue relaxation.Working together, the parents crafted the perfect plan. They chose a ch
As Yuki took his first steps away from the agency, a whirlwind of mixed emotions swept over him. Years of dedication and relentless training had defined his life, shaping him into one of the agency's most skilled operatives. However, after everything that had happened, especially the danger his close friends and allies faced, he realized he wanted a life beyond the shadows. The long nights spent looking over his shoulder, the constant need for vigilance, and the weight of secrets had finally pushed him to seek a new beginning.Logan, understanding Yuki’s silent turmoil, didn’t hesitate to support his decision. On Yuki’s last day at the agency, Logan met him for a quiet lunch at their favorite little bistro downtown. The two men sat across from each other, each one keenly aware of the new phase ahead. Logan, now fully entrenched in leading his family’s company, and Yuki, ready to step into a world he barely recognized but deeply craved. As their plates were cleared, Logan handed Yuki
The atmosphere in the grand Leinhart mansion had shifted, a quiet tension settling into every corner as Lord Leinhart’s health waned. He had been the pillar of their family, guiding them through turbulent times with a firm yet caring hand. Now, his movements were slower, and his powerful voice often softened with an underlying fatigue that didn’t go unnoticed by those closest to him. His children and grandchildren had tried to pretend everything was as it had always been, but they couldn’t ignore the lingering fear that he might be preparing to say his final goodbyes.One afternoon, Lord Leinhart summoned his family to the study. It was a room filled with memories of past achievements, marked by framed accolades and family portraits hanging on the walls. The room was intimate yet regal, his presence radiating an authority that had commanded respect for decades. As family members trickled in, the atmosphere grew tense. Mia, Melissa, and other key family members waited, each wondering
Logan’s transition from the agency to the corporate world wasn’t without challenges. His father, Charles Frost, had always emphasized the importance of leadership and responsibility, and after the recent turbulence with the agency and the betrayal he’d faced, he finally understood the value of the stable legacy his father had worked so hard to build. Reluctantly at first, Logan accepted his father’s insistence to take the reins as the permanent president of the family company, but soon he was pouring his energy and determination into every project, every strategy, and every partnership. Charles had seen in Logan a vision that was ambitious and future-driven, and he wanted that vigor to push their company into new frontiers. Logan took on the challenge with both respect for the legacy his father had created and a passion for redefining what they could achieve. Within months, Logan’s influence was apparent. He fostered partnerships with promising startups, invested in sustainable ene
Alexander Wang had been planning this moment for weeks, every detail mapped out with an intensity that reflected the depth of his feelings. It wasn’t just about the proposal, it was about redemption, healing, and a fresh start. He knew what Lydia, known in the spotlight as Suzy Vert, had been through. She had stood in the face of his family’s skepticism, with no shortage of harsh words or hurtful judgments. Despite it all, she’d never faltered, showing grace and strength that had ultimately won over Alexander’s heart even more than before.That evening, he led her to a quiet, lantern-lit pavilion on the family’s expansive estate. This wasn’t just any garden; it was the same place where she’d been met with icy receptions and side-eyed glances. He had chosen it deliberately. The blossoms were in full bloom, and the warm scent of jasmine floated in the air, adding a touch of magic to the setting. Lydia held her baby, bundled in soft blankets, as they walked. She had no idea what Alexa
Sam had always harbored the desire to leave his position as an agent, yearning for a life beyond the shadows and endless fieldwork. The agency’s lifestyle had worn on him, filling him with scars both physical and emotional. So when he handed in his resignation, he felt an unexpected mix of relief and anticipation, as if he were finally stepping into the life he had been waiting for. Logan had been supportive, congratulating him with a genuine smile and a handshake that held unspoken gratitude. After everything they’d been through, Logan knew how much Sam deserved this next chapter.Not long after, Sam was contacted by Logan’s father, Chairman Frost, with an opportunity he couldn’t refuse. Chairman Frost had taken notice of Sam’s loyalty, and he was impressed by the integrity Sam had shown throughout his years as an agent. Besides, he was like his own son now.As a reward, Chairman Frost extended an offer that aligned perfectly with Sam’s aspirations, a position as president of on
Melissa had never imagined her life would come to this moment, a second chance. As she stepped out of jail, the sky looked a little brighter, the air felt fresher, and for the first time, she felt the weight of her choices lift, just a little. A special pardon had been granted, and rather than relief, a wave of determination washed over her. She couldn’t erase the mistakes she’d made, but she could make sure her future was different. This was her opportunity to rewrite the narrative, and she wasn’t going to squander it.One of the conditions of her pardon was to complete a rehabilitation program. At first, the idea of “rehabilitation” sounded restrictive, but the time in therapy opened her eyes in ways she hadn’t anticipated. She spent hours unpacking her resentments, her jealousy toward Mia, her need to prove herself, and the misguided sense of entitlement that had led her down a dark path. Bit by bit, she began to peel away layers of bitterness, acknowledging the pain and insecu
Charles Frost sat alone in his study, the dim light casting long shadows across the room. The weight of the secrets he carried weighed heavily on him, pressing down with each beat of his heart. His son, Logan, had no idea of the extent to which Charles had been aware of the memory loss conspiracy or the threats that came with it. Charles had watched quietly from the sidelines, keeping close tabs on the unfolding events, hoping that his silence was enough to keep his family safe. Though Logan had confronted the members of the panel and brought charges against them, Charles knew that the details went deeper than his son might have suspected. From the first time he’d heard whispers of a “memory-altering operation,” Charles had taken quiet but decisive action. He didn’t involve his wife, fearing the panic and worry it would stir. She cherished Logan, and the mere thought of such betrayal from those within their circle would devastate her. Charles was also relieved that Logan hadn’t
[These last ten chapters will cover how everyone moved on and a little bit of backstory]Mia closed the door to her office, pausing to take one last look around. After years of leading the LH Group, the spacious corner office, once filled with the bustling energy of meetings, conference calls, and late-night strategy sessions, felt strangely silent. She had always thought she’d grow old here, carrying on her family’s legacy. But somewhere along the way, the responsibilities, the corporate dealings, and the constant pressure had worn her down. Stepping back from her CEO position was a decision she hadn’t made lightly, but she knew in her heart it was the right one.The past few months have been transformative. Her near-death experience and the fallout with Melissa had led her to reassess her life and her priorities. She wanted a new purpose, one rooted not in corporate power, but in making a genuine difference. That’s what drew her to the idea of joining a non-profit organization fo
