Chapter 050- Confession at gun point "Enough," Tempête said, cutting him off. He turned to the guards, his expression hardening. "Take him away. I want him locked up until we decide what to do with him.''“No! Don’t take him away just yet. Let him finish his statement,” Logan insisted, his curious gaze locked onto Soler.“My lord, that murderer has no right to speak!” Tempête fumed, his fury simmering just beneath the surface.“Calm down, Tempête,” Logan murmured, leaning closer. “Soler’s next words might either clear up my doubts or leave me with even more questions. Can you grasp that?”Tempête took a deep breath, nodding reluctantly before turning back to Soler, his expression steely.“What were you going to say before I ordered them to escort you away?” Tempête demanded, his voice sharp like a blade.Soler remained silent, lost in a whirlwind of thoughts. “Why do they suddenly want to hear my explanation? No matter what I say, I’ll still face the consequences. I knew about Master
Once Despised, Bastard Billionaire Chapter 051: Sealed letter
Chapter 051- “Good. It’s time for you to grant that favor. Only then can the three of us dispel our doubts and find the answers we desperately seek.” Diane’s fork clattered against her plate as she lost her appetite completely, the stress of the conversation weighing heavily on her. She pushed her food away and looked at Logan, her voice soft but strained. "Alright, Logan. You win. Just ask for the favor already," she urged, her gaze locked onto him with a mix of exhaustion and curiosity. Logan’s expression grew serious as he leaned back in his chair, the playful glint in his eyes replaced by a steely determination. "I'll ask if you’re ready, Diane," he replied calmly, watching her reaction closely. Diane frowned, irritation seeping through her tired facade. "I’m ready," she shot back, crossing her arms. Logan nodded, standing up slowly as if gathering his thoughts. "If you’re ready, then I’m ready too," he said, his tone even but charged with a gravity that sent a shiver down Di
Once Despised, Bastard Billionaire Chapter 052: El Abrham
Chapter 052:Diane placed the letter on the desk, her expression resolute. ''Let’s quickly go to show mother. I'm very scared right now. What if uncle is back in the house?''''No, sister. It's just that you're not that observant,'' Logan replied, patting Diane on the shoulder.''Really? I'm not observant? What other things do you have to say about me? Speak it out, brother. Pour your silly mind out.'' Diane ranted, pretending to be annoyed at Logan's words remark.Logan curled his arms around Diane's neck and planted a soft peck on her robust cheeks. ''No, Diane. You're getting it all wrong. Sorry, I meant to say, you misquoted me. You didn't notice that your so-called uncle felt uneasy when he saw Soler, with us, in that state.'' Diane smirked, ''I didn't notice anything!''''He was rushing to get out of the estate. He was so scared Soler might have spilled the beans which would tarnish his image. You could see the fear on his face.'' Logan lamented, his voice straining.''I didn't

Chapter 53: Zora plans with BradleyLogan’s breath caught, anger flaring in his chest. ''And this caller? Did he say who he was?'’Diane looked up, her tear-filled eyes locking onto Logan’s. “Yes… He said his name. He said he was El Abrham.”Logan jumped to his feet, pacing the room in frustration. “That’s insane! Why would a criminal risk introducing himself? Doesn’t that seem weird to you? He practically left a trail for anyone to find him.”Diane wiped her tears, her voice calmer now but still heavy with emotion. “I thought the same thing, Logan. I asked Mum why anyone would do that. But she said she believed it wasn’t a risk for him because… maybe because no one could dare go after him.”Logan turned sharply, narrowing his eyes at her. “What do you mean, no one could dare go after him? Who the hell is El Abrham? A ghost? A shadow? An Afghan jihad terrorist? Why would Uncle Piero make Dad negotiate a business deal with a killer?”Diane’s voice was barely above a whisper. “I don't t

"My victim is Logan... my husband, the one I’m married to!" she declared.“What?” Bradley was taken aback. “You've still not forgotten about that guy. He doesn't care you, Zora.”“He forgot me but I'm not ready to forget about him. I'm married to him and he remains my husband.” Diane insisted as she kept admiring the gun.Bradley drew closer as he looked into Diane’s eyes. “But I do care about you, Zora. Why exactly are you not getting that…” “What exactly am I not getting, Bradley. Did I ask you for help or affection? Did I ask you to care about me?” Diane declaimed.“Zora, it's not like that,” Bradley murmured, moving closer as his hand reached out towards her arm.In a swift, instinctive motion, Zora swatted his hands away and pointed the tranquilizer gun at him, her movements sharp, her desperation bubbling to the surface. “Not like what, Bradley?” Her voice dropped dangerously low as

He doesn't deserve to be in the streets.''The guard nodded briskly and stepped forward to secure the man.Logan exhaled, trying teady himself as Diane pulled him aside. ''Are you okay?''Logan ran a hand through his hair, his voice filled with emotion. ''No, I’m not okay. I can’t stand perverts like that. If I hadn’t seen him…''Diane placed a hand on his shoulder. ''I know, brother. But you did the right thing. Let the police handle it now.''Logan looked back one last time as the security guards dragged the candy vendor toward a waiting car.Suddenly, a woman stormed into the scene, dragging the little girl by the arm.

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

I’m almost done here,'' Fabio stammered, fiddling with the last bow of the table decoration.Tempête’s eyes narrowed, his voice dripping with disdain. ''And who do you think you are, addressing my lord so casually? You should always refer to him as ‘my lord,’ understand?''Fabio opened his mouth to protest, but Logan silenced him with a curt gesture, his finger pressed to his lips. ''Hush,'' he whispered, locking eyes with Fabio. ''Make sure to have your resignation letter ready before the end of this joyous ceremony.'' ''Enough!'' Harris’s voice boomed through the crowd, cutting through the tension.Logan and his crew turned abruptly, revealing Harris, his anger palpable.
