"You Useless man, look at what you have done! You just added fuel to the already burning fire. What did I do to deserve such a miserable son-in-law?" Mrs Fairfax cursed. So did every other person.But Maya was indifferent, while the fight was going on she stood at the edge of the alley, her eyes wide with astonishment as she watched the intense battle unfold before her. She never knew that Logan has such strength. As Logan effortlessly defeating his adversaries with a combination of agility, and sheer strength, Maya couldn't help but feel a mix of awe and pride. Each swift movement, each calculated strike, revealed a side of Logan she had never seen before, a side that showcased his incredible skills as a fighter.Meanwhile Bardot was laying at a Conner groaning and screaming for help all the while. "I think I might have broken my waist, it hurts so badly, someone should call the ambulance!!?" He said, his voice accentuated pride, though he was at the point of death.Everyone's atten
On hearing her, Logan smiled lightly. He knew that on a normal day, Maya would never shift blame on him, she would rather take the blame. Maya struggled her way out of the car, but Logan wouldn't let her jump out, the car was at a high speed. She was determined to go searching for her mother by all means.“Maya, Maya! Listen, look at me.” He smoothly held Maya's jaw and Maya looked directly into his eyes. “I will see to it that your mother is safe, but for now, please let me get you home safely.”He continued. “The trouble won't be much searching for one person, than it would be trying to save two at a time.”All the while Lucy was listening, and she was disgusted at the two, she was wishing she wasn't in the car in the first place. She was so irritated by Logan and Maya, “can you please stop talking, my ears are itching from your garbage talks.”Maya took a quick glance at Lucy but continued anyway. “How do you know she would be okay? No, tell me, how!?” She put on a worried look as
“Gloria, what is wrong with you? Can't you see that we are in a meeting, I guess you do not have any regards for me, but what of your grandmother, can't you at least show some respect?” Huxley said.It was as if no one spoke. Gloria continued but as she was still speaking, Olivia gave out a murderous sigh and walked to her room, but before she walked out, she glared at Gloria. She uttered: “Gloria you are a shameless fool! And it is unclear to me why Grandmother hasn't done anything about your nonchalant behavior. I wonder what you have on her. If what you said was true, then Balenciaga must be making a huge mistake.” Olivia snorted.On hearing her, Mrs. Fairfax lifted her eyes to examine the person speaking, and she briefly rubbed her nose without uttering a word.When Olivia was leaving, Gloria rolled her eyes at her in disdain and continued speaking to whoever cared to listen.In the whole Fairfax family, Gloria wasn't only known as the celebrity of the family, she was also known
Maya exhaled, lazily, before speaking. “You don't have to.”“What?” Logan asked in a confused tone.Maya lifted her eyes as she said; “Don't worry I will turn myself in, after all it is all because of me that she is there. I just got a message from Smith.”“Smith? Who is Smith?” Logan asked.“He is Bardot's cousin.”“Oh! I see, what is the content of the message?”“He wants me in exchange for my mom, actually he wants you as well, but don't worry, I will face whatever it is even if it's to die, I will die and everything will return to normal.”She continued. “You have your mother to take care of, everything will be fine, I promise.”'What is she saying? She wants to die and leave me. Is she hearing herself?' Logan thought.“No I won't let you die, Maya! Just let me handle this. Please, I won't fail you.”Logan's phone began ringing, he took it out of his side pocket then tapped the answer button, he placed the phone on his ear. It was an unknown number which means he didn't know who t
Hospital ICU....Bardot lying in a hospital bed, if anyone had told him that in some hours later he would be in such a condition as he is now, he would never have believed. The quest of wanting Maya has landed him in a life and death situation. He is in a special care unit, the doctor in charge of his case is skeptical of his survival, according to him, Bardot was left way too long before he was rushed to the hospital.“He lost so much blood, and also he has been infected by the glass that pierced him. If he was here as soon as the accident happened, the case would have been different.” The doctor said as he pleaded his stethoscope on Bardot's chest.They made up a lie as to what caused Bardot's injury, and the doctor bought it.“Are you saying he won't survive this, doctor?" Kim, Bardot's mother, inquired. Her face bore a sign of tears, and eventually, it rushed down her cheeks. The doctor looked down at the file in his hand, and after some seconds he shifted his gaze at Kim and s
Rosalind already lost hope of coming out alive, since she was locked in there she had not tested food, not even water. Now she is experiencing what it means to be maltreated, Logan flashed through her mind. She remembered how she starved him for mistakenly breaking her wine bottle. She has just starved for not more than 3 hours, and she is already feeling depressed.“How did Logan endure 2 days of hunger without water? I have been so cruel to him, and I regret treating him that way.”As she was still speaking, she heard the sound of the door open because the room was dark, she didn't see the person. All she heard was a footstep the person was in a hurry, she panicked as she thought that the person was there to kill her without giving her the chance to see her daughter.“Please before you kill me, do me a favor, let me see my daughter for the very last time.”Smith scoffed as he heard her, he turned on the light, and quickly untied. Rosalind, however, was surprised, she was full of
Just the commander's phone began ringing he, however, was hesitant in answer the call, once they saw the caller ID, he sighed, it was Shawn, he knew that he was calling to order them to abort their operation. The commander wanted to deal with the knight's family, he had a personal grudge against them because of what they did to his brother in the past.He reluctantly pressed the answer button and placed it on his ear. “Hello, boss!”“Mike! I am calling to tell you to abort the mission immediately.” “But we are yet to complete the assignment.” Mike objected.“Well, I would have let you complete it, but the young master said it should be discontinued for the moment.”As he heard the young master, his heart skipped, “I will do as you command, sir.” The call ended.He gestured his team to discontinue whatever they were doing, and they left without a word. “What just happened, weren't they supposed to let us know what to hope for, they just left, just like. Smith said. He was not the on
The Fairfax mansion.“Logan! Logan,” Olivia called while hitting on the door to Maya's room. She came as soon as she saw Maya leaving for work. Maya left to work though it was a Sunday, she left very early, so she didn't stay for breakfast.A paperwork was waiting for her in the office, she had an unfinished assignment designated to her by her grandmother. Something that was supposed to be handled by at least 3 persons, but she gave it to Maya just to punish her.If she left it until Monday, it will be a massive setback for her, and she may not have the chance to attend a conference meeting that will be coming up on Tuesday.At this conference, she will be meeting with so many wealthy businessmen and women coming from various part of the world, so she wouldn't want to miss it for anything. Who knows, she might be fortunate to meet investors.Rosalind was still in bed, left for her, nothing will be accomplished that day, after all, it's a resting day. Maya made her breakfast before le
