"Don't worry, everything will be okay as long as I'm here, you know that, right?""Yes, Uncle," the little girl nodded.

What if I pay fully for your therapy session and find somewhere new and comfortable for you and your mummy to live?''His heart swelled with emotion as he watched the little girl gratefully embrace him, her small frame trembling in relief. Her mother, Barbara, looked on with a mix of awe and gratitude.''Thanks a ton, Uncle,'' the girl mumbled into his shoulder. ''You’re a real hero!''Logan chuckled softly as he gently freed himself from her embrace, still kneeling to meet her eyes. ''You're welcome, girl. I'm happy to help.

It’s time to go home.''"What do you mean we're going home, Logan? Are you seriously considering challenging Eliza?" Amelia's voice rose as she confronted her son, the strain evident in her cough.Logan met his mother's gaze. "No, Mom. I would never get to challenge her. May her soul rest in peace for now.""Rest in peace? What happened to her? Please don't tell me she's..." Before Amelia could finish, Logan interjected, "Yes, she's gone. The kidnappers ended her life while I thought she could help negotiate your release.""Good heavens, Logan. Do you really think Diane is in any state to see you right now?" Amelia's concern was palpable."That's up to her, Mom. All I know is that we're heading home, now," Logan declared, making a swift turn."I don't know where you're finding this courage, but Diane will undoubtedly unleash the g

Chapter 042- It's Your Home "Tempête, it's Logan," he said, raising an eyebrow as he waited for Tempête's response.Just as Logan anticipated a chilly reception from Tempête, he was surprised when Tempête eagerly exclaimed, "My Lord, is it really you?""Maybe you know another person with this deep voice," Logan quipped.The two guards exchanged shocked glances, clearly taken aback by Logan and Tempête's casual talks."Wow, my Lord. I can't believe you're here at the gate. I'm nearby, you'll see me right away!" Tempête exclaimed excitedly before the call abruptly ended."Wow, you must be highly regarded in this country for Lieutenant sir to address you as his Lord," remarked the first guard as he took the walkie-talkie from Logan."Really? What makes you say that?" Logan asked, barely suppressing a smile."Yes, my colleague is right. Lieutenant sir has only used that title for Lord Oliver Reed when he was alive," added the second guard."And he has never used that honorific for anyone

Chapter 043- El Piero returns“Take this, the pin to open the suitcase is 0052 and all the total proprietorship documents are inside, you can check them out while I show Mother Amelia to her room,” Diane said as she handed Logan the suitcase and went outside.The SUV raced towards the Reed estate, the tension palpable inside the car.Finally, the driver, clad in a black suit, broke the silence. "Master Piero, how was your stay in Afghanistan, sir?" he inquired, but the man in the green turban just stared at him with contempt, refusing to respond.The driver, named Soler, stole a glance at the mirror, expecting the man to be asleep, but he was surprised to find him wide awake."Soler, how many times do I have to tell you to drop the 'master' from my name? I am an Arab now. You should refer to me as El Piero Reed," the man declared.Soler nodded in compliance, grinning a little."I'm sorry for the loss of your brother's wife, El Piero," Soler offered."Oh, that? She did herself a favor

Chapter 044-"Mother Amelia, what?" Piero repeated, blinking repeatedly to ensure he wasn't dreaming."Mother Amelia's son," Diane confirmed. "Uncle Piero, don't tell me you're surprised or, let me just say, you're shocked.""No, no... I'm not. You know, I heard that she and her son were... don't worry. I'm not surprised, actually... I'm happy," Piero stammered.He knew he had to maintain an excited expression if he wished to keep his evil plans going."This return of Amelia and her son, hmmph. I hope it won't be a setback for me," Piero thought to himself as Logan jolted him out of his thoughts."What are you still thinking about, Uncle? Give your niece a hug," Logan said excitedly as he hugged Piero, who in turn wrapped his own arms around Logan."I'm so sorry for not doing that first, Logan. You know, I haven't seen you since you were still a baby, so it was difficult for me to recognize you," Piero said."There's no need to apologize, Uncle Piero. At least, I didn't know I had an

Chapter 045- Anniversary O'Clock"Exactly!" Diane exclaimed. "Can you go there for me? For my sake? Please don't say no.''Logan stood in silence for a moment before finally breaking it. “Is that all?”Diane’s eyes widened, and she quickly replied, “Yes! Big bro, does this mean you’ll go for me? Tempête will be right by your side for the whole event!”With a nod, Logan said, “Yeah, I’ll do it, but you owe me a favor while I’m away.”“A favor?” Diane echoed, her mind racing with possibilities. “Anything for you, big bro!”“Alright then. Tell Tempête I’ll be ready in an hour.” With that, Logan turned and strode back into the mansion.************* One hour later.Logan emerged dressed in a striking purple suit, the warm sun filtering through the trees, leaving dancing shadows on the driveway.As he made his way outside, he froze at the sight: a convoy of sleek black SUVs lined up like guardians, the name R-E-E-D boldly emblazoned on their license plates, ready to take him to the anniver
