Lord Leinhart walked in as Sam left the ward. Logan sat up as he walked in, “Good morning Lord Leinhart.” he bowed.“You should not be bowing in that state. Your injury will rip open again.” Lord Leinhart said in a stern voice.“I am sorry sir.” Logan sat still, with his gaze fixed on Lord Leimhart.“I should have known from the first day you looked at me like the way you are doing now that you are a fearless man.” Lord Leinhart shut his eyes and the image of how Logan took a bullet for him popped in his head.“So reckless.” When he opened his eyes, Logan was already standing in front of him with a cup of water. “Do you need some water, sir?” Logan asked, he didn’t know why he had offered him some water but that was what his instincts asked him to do anyway.“What are you doing?’ Lord Leinhart asked,“When did you get down from the bed?”Logan was surprised to see that the old unaffectionate man might really be concerned about why he was standing up. ‘I just thought that you may be
Mia got a call from the hospital while she was still in bed, that her grandfather was heading to her husband's ward. She had paid a nurse to inform her who moves inside and outside her husband’s hospital room. She didn’t even alert the driver and guards assigned to her, she just grabbed any car key she saw and zoomed off to the hospital.When she arrived at the door, she was surprised to see so many guards in front of the room, the men parted ways for her to pass till she got to where the butler was.“Ms Leinhart.” the butler faced her, “Good morning, I didn’t expect that you'd be here this early.”“I didn’t expect that grandpa would be here this morning too. What is with the men? Since when did grandpa start having these people around?”She knew her grandfather would not just hire bodyguards unless it was a special business deal, that was another reason why he wanted her to marry from the Nelson’s family. Another part of her reasoned that he might ask her to not put the total
She didn’t reply to him , she had realized that she wasn’t supposed to blurt that out. She knew her mistake but that didn’t make her less angry or change the fact that she came here with her mind made up that she would not consider his feelings or his injuries.Logan did not take any offense to what she said, so he wanted to explain to her, “We didn’t say much, we only spoke about Savini and our marriage.” his tone was quiet but Mia wasn’t having it.“That is all you spoke to him about?” She asked with a clear doubt on her face, she was not hiding the fact that she didn’t believe him. She knew that they could not have just said that.They had most likely gone in depth. It must mean that her grandfather knew that he was a gangster and all this while, he acted like Lord Leinhart was aware when she told him to keep it a secret.A part of her thought that maybe Lord Leinhart doesn’t know that he was a gangster but she could not trust her husband nor her grandfather. That old man would
After Mia took her leave, Logan changed into fresh clothes and went straight to his sister’s apartment. He wanted to clarify his thoughts before doing anything else. He had suspected that Lyida was hiding something from him and the next way to find out was to catch her right in the act. He knew how cunny she could be. He didn’t even call in his men to drive him there with his car and he knew to outsmart them and leave the hospital without them noticing him. When Sam was speaking to him about her, he purposely did not mention his suspicions so that he wouldn't jinx it or that won’t get leaked.He was aware that Sam and Lydia were close enough that he would be giving her some heads up. Sam was like their sibling, he is around Lydia’s age so they were like twins.When they bicker or share secrets.As the cab dropped him in front of the exotic houses that the Frost owned, he unlocked the door with his own keys. His sister was lying down on the couch, with sheets covering her properly
When Logan got home, he met his wife packing up to leave, it was like she waited for him to come home before she made her move,“Can you not do this, Mia? I don’t want things to pan out the way you are taking it.”He said softly but she just kept on packing her stuff, “Are you moving back into the Villa?”“It is none of your business Logan We are strictly following the contract now. My lawyers will contact you.” Mia had planned to deal with her family members through her own lawyers, even if Melissa crossed the line, she was going to sue her in court.She was tired of doing everything for everyone and they were still trying to play on her intelligence. She accepted her husband for he was but he couldn;t share things about himself.Her grandfather never took it easy on her whenever she made a mistake, he didn’t even allow her to have a normal life or time to heal from her mistakes.“I am sorry for not telling you about my sister but I had my reasons.”“Sure you did have your reasons
“So where are we heading to?” Logan asked her as they got into the car.“Er,” she looked at her phone to check for the address then she inputted it into the gps. “Just follow the directions.”Logan could tell from her voice that she was anxious, so he sent a code to Sam. It was a secret code between them so that he knows when to keep track of Logan’s moves.As soon as they got to the place. Melissa got down from the car, then she knocked on the window, Logan rolled down the glass, “You can go down. Thank you so much for bringing me.”Logan didn’t say a word and watched her as she walked away from him. He dialed Sam’s number. “Have you looked into the building? Caleb is in there. He asked Melissa to ome “Yes sir, the building is under Savini’s name. I think his men are in there, we are trying to find our way into their server.”“They are connected to the internet? What for?”“We just found our way in, they are trying to gain access to the security cams in the Leinhart Villa,. But we
“She told me not to tell you sir.” Sam said in a small voice. Logan felt so stupid seeing how Sam had played along all that while, “So were you aware that Alessandro was staying with her in one of our properties?”“Young Miss had him in her house?” Sam asked surprisingly, he was aware that Lydia was going to make things complicated and house Alessandro Wang in her house.Sam wished he had found out first, he would have been able to get him to leave before Logan found out.“What else are you hiding from me?” Logan asked quietly.“Nothing else, sir…. Holy shit!” Sam cursed aloud. “What is wrong?” Logan asked. “The operations we're running just crashed.”“How did that happen? Did Caleb manage to get us? That is impossible? Even Lord Nelson could not do that to us.” Logan said.“It is from the higher ups sir. They logged us out of the main database, we have lost connection to the satellite.” Sam said.“Shit! Those old me really have something to do with what is going on.”“That is no
“Why would they do that? it is not even fair!” Sam lamented bitterly as Logan removed his uniform.”Are you really going outside the country?” “I cannot afford to retire dishonorably.” Logan sighed, it was the wrongest time to leave the country because of Caleb SawyerHe might decide to strike the Leinharts and they will surely be in danger again. Not that he didn’t trust his men to do a good job but Caleb was no weak man that just anyone could take on.If Sam tried to go one on one with him, he would be at a big risk too.Sam understood that retiring dishonorably will just discredit all of Logan’s effect and that is exca;ty what the members of the panel wanted him to do. “Are you going to tell the family about this?” Sam asked, what he meant by family was Logan’s parents, his sister and Mia.“There is no need to tell him. It is just a month I will be spending, it won;t make much difference." Logan said.Deep down he was nervous about the trip because he intended on going solo and jo
