Chapter 049- Murderous PlansZora’s lips curved into an enigmatic smile, a glint of determination in her eyes. ''Closure, Mother. Sometimes, to move forward, we must first say goodbye to the dead before we embrace the living.'’Madame Ruthie scrutinized her daughter, the unsettling tranquility in Zora's demeanor sending a shiver down her spine. It was so out of character for her, especially after the tempest of emotions she had just exhibited."What do you mean by ‘closure,’ Zora?" Madame Ruthie's voice trembled with skepticism.Zora turned her gaze to the rain-drenched window, her fingertips drumming anxiously on the glass. "The kind of closure that finally lays the past to rest," she murmured, almost as if the words were too heavy to utter aloud."Madame Eliza meant something to the Reeds. Attending her funeral is my way of honoring that—and reminding a few people that I’m still very much here."Madame Ruthie's frown deepened, her maternal instincts screaming that Zora was withholdi

She looked radiant in her elegant gown.A smile lit up her face as she greeted the group of notable individuals who graced her 66th birthday dinner party.Amongst the guests, who caught his attention was Bradley Lexington, the CEO of Xington Pharmaceutical Industry, a medics company in Sweden.Bradley, being Blake's childhood friend had always dreamt of marrying Zora and with the help of Blake, he had managed to shoot some shots but Zora kept refusing his advances because of the genuine love she has for Logan.''Huh, this fool is one of the reasons Blake and Ings hate me so much,'' Logan

Chapter 004- The Unveiling "Madame, I... I hope you'll like this," Logan said softly, his voice barely audible above the murmur of the crowd.Despite his nerves, he was confident that his gift would be well-received, but he couldn't help feeling anxious as he waited for her reaction.Madame Ruthie's eyes lit up with genuine warmth as she reached out to accept the gift, her smile radiant despite the dim lighting of the dining hall. "Thank you, Logan," she said sincerely, her gratitude evident in her voice.With trembling hands, Logan placed the package into Madame Ruthie's outstretched hands, his heart pounding with anticipation.

Chapter 005- An unwanted visitor Blake's grip tightened further, his fury unrelenting as he glared at Logan with undisguised loathing. "Sorry simply won't cut it," he snarled, his voice low and menacing. "You've endangered my family, and now you'll pay the price!''Logan was caught off guard as Blake's fist came flying towards him, landing square on his nose with a sickening crunch. The impact sent a wave of pain through Logan's face, causing his eyes to water and his nose to gush blood.The crimson stain also began to spread across his shirt as he stumbled back, trying to regain his balance.As Logan staggered back, reeling from the blow, he could hear the gasps and murmurs of the onlooking guests, their shock and horror mirroring his own as Blake loosen his grip completely.''That’s for my mum and the fake love you have for my sister!''

Chapter 006- Logan meet Heiress Diane''Stay alert! I think we have an unwanted visit..'' Before Mr.Bill could complete his command, incoming husky and thunderous voices interrupted him.''Everyone, stay put! Heiress Diane of the Reed family is here!''''Stay right there or we might be forced to break your filthy legs with this pistol,'' Rencroso barked as he, alongside the other Bennett guards pointed guns at the beautiful woman as she elegantly walked in, followed by four hefty men."Even your boss, Bill, wouldn't dare to do that. But let's not talk about family rivalry. I'm here for my half-brother and I demand to see him!" Diane replied firmly, unfazed by the guards' weapons as Mr. Bill reluctantly ordered them to lower them.Zora chuckled and said, "Ohh Diane, do you think this hall looks similar to the one in your late father's estate? And what do you think about your half-brother? You think this is the right place to search for him?"Mr. Bill's patience had run thin as he confr

Chapter 007- Turmoil and Reunion Diane was completely shocked when Logan casually mentioned the first name of her mother, the powerful Matriarch and head of the Reed family.Lost in her thoughts, unable to find the right words to say, Diane struggled to comprehend that the beaten-up young man in front of her was actually her long-lost half-brother, whom she had been tirelessly searching for."Logan, is that really you?" Diane whispered, her words barely audible as she cautiously approached him. "Where on earth have you been all this while?" Her hand reached out to touch his face, but Logan abruptly swatted it away, leaving her stunned and bewildered."I understood that my mother has caused a lot of pain for you and your mother. Despite that, I already made up my mind to find you, Logan.
