“Ma’am, your husband is quite popular in the office,” Nella reported to her boss. “He and Sam must have stirred up the hearts of the female staff, we have received over fifty applications for people that want to transfer to their office.”“That is wild, I wasn't expecting such a turn up”. Mia said, “Give it to one of the male staff we have on our team to assign people to the office.”“Okay ma’am.” Mia got up from her seat as she was ready to break the news to her husband and tease him about it. She took the elevators meant for all the members of the staff to the next floor instead of the regular one so that people would not notice her moves.She strode carefully as she made her way to his office, just as she was about to take a peep at how he was doing at work because Nella had sent down most of their tasks in the morning when they had gotten to work.She saw the horror of her life, Melissa was sitting on her husband's lap. When Melissa had threatened to seduce her husband, she thou
“Don’t you think that Caleb Sawyer could be the affiliate we are after?” Logan said to Sam. “Mr Sawyer? He didn’t seem like that kind of person to me.” Sam replied to him and dropped a piece of cake on Logan’s table. “He even brought some cake for us.”Caleb Sawyer had been coming to the company frequently to see Mia and Melissa, he had been coming with gifts, snacks to capture the heart of everyone.Logan was frustrated that his assistant could not even see through the affiliate would try to get close to Mia and Melissa so that he would be able to get to Lord Leinhart .“Affiliates can’t buy cakes too or did you go slow from shaving your beards?”Sam frowned but he knew Logan meant business when he mentioned his beard. “I have looked into his record, he was clean. I also showed you sir but you made no comment about him.”“I told you I felt uneasy about him since the first day I saw him, why are you acting like I am letting my emotions control my thoughts?”“I am sorry for making y
“They were covering the event so they could take a good look at it. There were professionals at the scene to guide the members of the staff as they played that game.”When Sam was leaving to join their men in the corner, he made sure Nella was busy attending to the important guests that came for the event..Somehow Logan had made Lydia and Hannah show at the event so it was pretty packed up so that Mia and Nella would not notice what was going on. Unfortunately things were not going as planned at the shooting range . As soon as Logan grabbed the gun. His first shot was a ten.The result drew the attention of everyone there. The real game had not started because both parties were testing out their guns.Mia was so furious as she saw her gangster husband handling a gun in front of everyone. Though no one knew that they were married, if anyone recognized him as a gangster, it would do the company's image badly.“Are you trying to get your wife angry, sir?” Sam said into the microphone,
“I am going to keep following him myself.” Logan said as he gathered the stuff he needed. “Yes, you said that last night,” Sam replied to him because he knew that his boss was hinting that he wanted him to follow him.“This is an opportunity for me to get more experience.”“Goodluck to you, young master, I have a date with Nella today, I will send your regards to her.”“Thank you.” he replied as he slammed his car trunks then he drove off.Logan sat in the driver’s seat of his sleek, black car, the engine purring softly as he watched Caleb leave his workplace. The vehicle was equipped with the latest in steady technology, rendering it virtually invisible to anyone outside, a perfect tool for someone in Logan’s line of work. He’d made up his mind the moment Mia had confronted him. Caleb was too much of an enigma, and Logan couldn’t afford to take any chances. If there was any possibility that Caleb posed a threat to his father-in-law, Logan needed to be sure so that there was no o
Mia and Logan sat in the back of the taxi as it weaved through the busy streets toward the airport. The sun was setting, casting a warm glow over the city, but neither of them paid much attention to the view. Mia was deep in thought, her fingers tapping absently against the worn leather seat, while Logan’s eyes scanned the passing scenery with the instinctual alertness of someone who had seen too much of the world’s dangers.“Are you sure you want to do this?” Mia asked, breaking the silence.Logan glanced at her, offering a small smile. “It’ll be fine, Mia. We’re just here to welcome your parents and Lord Leinhart. What could go wrong?”Mia sighed, leaning her head back against the seat. “It’s just... you know how Melissa gets. She’s going to make a big deal out of us arriving in a taxi.”Logan’s smile widened, his eyes crinkling at the corners. “Let her. It’s not the car that matters. Besides, I’m used to her insults by now.”Mia couldn’t help but smile back, though her worry linge
Mia sat in the cold, sterile hospital corridor, her hands trembling as she stared at the floor. The doctors had just finished their examination of Logan, and now they were standing in front of her, their faces grave. The air was thick with tension, and the steady beeping of the machines monitoring Logan’s condition felt like a countdown to some inevitable, terrible conclusion.“Ms Mia,” Dr. Harris began, his voice soft but firm, “we need to talk about Mr Logan’s condition.”Mia lifted her head, her heart pounding in her chest. “What’s wrong? Why isn’t he waking up?”Dr. Harris exchanged a glance with his colleague, Dr. Patel, before continuing. “Logan’s body is incredibly weak. The bullet wound is serious, but that’s not the only problem. It seems that he’s never fully healed from previous injuries, severe ones, at that.”Mia felt a chill run down her spine. “Previous injuries? What do you mean?”Dr. Patel stepped forward, his expression sympathetic. “We found evidence of multiple ol
Mia sat in her office, her thoughts swirling like a storm. The events at the hospital had left her shaken, her heart weighed down by confusion and doubt. She had replayed the scene over and over in her mind, Lydia, or rather Suzy Vert, standing by Logan's side, her voice soft as she whispered the news of her pregnancy. Mia couldn't shake the feeling that there was something more to the story, something she was missing.She knew she needed to talk to someone, to get it all out before her thoughts consumed her. Nella, her trusted assistant and confidant , was the first person who came to mind. Mia trusted her implicitly and knew she could rely on her discretion. Picking up her phone, she dialed Nella's number."Nella, could you come to my office, please? I need to talk to you," Mia said, trying to keep the tremor out of her voice."Of course, Mia. I'll be right there," Nella replied, her tone concerned.A few minutes later, Nella walked into the office, her usual bright smile replaced
The night was thick with silence as Caleb approached the hospital, his steps slow and deliberate. He had been waiting for this moment, planning each detail with meticulous care.Logan, the man who had disrupted his plans, was now lying vulnerable in a hospital bed, and Caleb knew this was his opportunity to eliminate the threat once and for all.The information had come to him through Melissa, who had unwittingly provided the details of Logan’s condition and his location. Caleb had always known that Melissa was attracted to him, and he had exploited that to his advantage. It hadn't been difficult to coax the necessary information from her, even if she didn’t realize the true extent of his intentions.Now, as Caleb slipped through the hospital's dimly lit corridors, he felt a cold determination settle over him. There was no turning back. Logan had become too much of a liability, especially now that Lord Leinhart had shown a sudden fondness for him. If Caleb didn’t act now, the power
