In his desire for revenge and power, Logan had himself turned to darkness, there was a way it helped him reason and so far so good it seemed to work-A cracking noise filled the air and a flicker from his lighter came on briefly before turning to darkness again.He looked at the lighter closely, the last time he had made use of it was the night of the fire and everything that happened that night, he had thought of keeping to himself including the proof that was locked away in his closet. At the dark end of the hallway that was void of light and life, Logan who had arrived back at the Capre mansion was seated at a corner with anxiety seared over his face, in some way it was hard for him to get over the past hour incident.Within his chest, he listened as his heart thudded noisily—While his heart ricocheted for two reasons first being the fact that he was still wondering where everyone was and the other being down to the fact that he was getting to enjoy that bit of serenity that fill
Still, they hadn't arrived, anyone in his shoes would be worried but definitely not him, it was the last thing he wanted to do at that moment, act worried when he actually wasn't.The maid he had talked with earlier arrives, but not with the information as he had thought but invites him to dinner.Since it was supposed to be for three he thought that he might be having it all to himself, he sat right there at the table and tried not to get himself into cynical thoughts at that moment.Though the thought of Josie especially flickered in his mind, after she had acted the way she did —It was bad enough that she had pointed things out to him about how she wanted things to be run — He had thought she was undeserving of his empathy.Dinner was distracted when the maid arrived again to get dessert out of the way. “What do you like to have?" She asked, without much as looking into his eyes“A bottle of liquor would be great," Logan muttered without looking. " I'd skip others for now. “Is th
In a secluded part of somewhere marked unknown two different footsteps made their way to shore, in the distance all that could be heard was that bit of silence that sat vast into the distance stretching its way down the darkness that engulfed the Vicinity.The search for his body has been a tiring one but it had been rumored to be sighted floating shore prompting the two to search “.“I found something." One of the men started drawing the attention of the rest.Andre's heavy footsteps are seen padding through the water body.When he turned the body that was faced downward, Josie had her hands covering her mouth to muffle a scream, it was grandfather Don Moreno's mutilated body.“Prepare the body for transport," Andre muttered.It took a while but by the dawn of the next, his body had been embalmed and was being transported back home while the siblings drove on the next car trying as much as possible not to ponder about the entire situation.It was obvious question would be asked-“The
It was hard to explain why all he felt deep in his soul was that bit of confusion, he had tried to wonder why the man was speaking to him in the first place but looking into the eyes of the man all he had seen was someone broken, they must've been having a huge misunderstanding and that most definitely explained what this was all about at the Moment.Somewhere deep in his mind, he sighed to himself while wishing that all of this be handled differently, he wished that Josie hadn't called out to the man and he had the opportunity to ask more questions.Josie made her way to where he was, she had this questioning look on her face when she had walked and stopped right before him.“What were you two discussing?" She questioned.Logan wondering why she was being too Inquisitive thought that the best for him was to ignore her.He was merely cutesy and turned away. “So that is how it is going to be, tell me what man ignores his wife."Did She just call him that?The thought rattles through h
Much as they tried keeping it away from the press, it was much more difficult keeping such a high-profile person away from the public, it was the most difficult thing he had to do presently.Don Moreno's burial was attended by more of the important people around, all dressed in black the pope said the final rites as the body was laid to state, buried underneath the ground.For no reason, Logan chose to remain there after everyone had gone staring hard at the epitaph.For some twisted reason in his mind, he wondered how long it was going to take for all of this to come into place, it was hard for him to play through whatever he was thinking at that moment, even more, so that he was so absent-minded he didn't know someone was behind him.“Boss." He turned and his gaze came in contact with Charlie, his Butler…He seemed surprised to see him. “What are you doing here?"“Well, guess I got invited since I manage your estate, what are the odds?"Charlie stared hard at him for a while. “Are y
"I don't know why you couldn't say what you wanted to out there but I hope that now, you'll be able to spill whatever it is you have in mind. And trust me if you do not start speaking, I'll walk away," Logan said to the maid. She looked around hoping no one was nearby before looking back at Logan. Logan was still looking at her with eagerness. He wished she would talk already. Then finally she did. "Sir, how would you like to know what was said in the conference room?" She asked him. Logan looked at her confused, wondering what she meant. "What are you talking about?" He asked her. "Would you like to know what was being discussed in the conference room?" The maid asked again. "And how would you know what was discussed in there? It's a private meeting. No one except Josie, Andre, and the lawyer would know what is going on in that room right now. So once again I'll ask, how would you know what is being discussed in that room?" He asked her. "I was one of the maids serving tea in
"What the hell are you two doing here?" Logan asked but none of them responded to him. "Oh, it seems you know these guys already," Josie said with a sly smile on her face."Know them? I don't think I've ever set my eyes on them before," Logan lied.Of course, he knew who these men were and they probably knew why they were here. He didn't know why he lied when it was obvious that the truth was about to be revealed."You don't know them? We shall find that out very soon," Josie said.Then she turned to the two men."Come on in, guys," Josie said to them and they did as she had instructed. Before anyone else could say another word, Andre walked into the room and said, "Has he confessed to it yet?""Not yet. I just brought in his accomplices," Josie replied. "Well, that means I am right on time. You can begin," Andre said. Josie nodded before turning to look at the two men who had come in earlier. "So tell me what you told me earlier? Repeat the same thing before everyone in this ro
It was one question she would never get to answer as she felt baffled, she walked away from the man she loved, a man that she should've loved regardless of the situation yet found herself still trying to understand.Josie padded the silent hallways to her room, the room had a bit of darkness hovering around it as she ran through her conversation with Logan one more time, in the distance away from where she thought to rest her head, there appeared to be as deep sore feeling in her heart as she listened to the distant beat of her heart leaking from the crevices of her soul into the air.She thought about the entire situation again in her mind, her thought was rather unsettled at the sudden thought of the man toward her, yes she should have loved the man but she found herself doing something different - something about him seemed quite out of the ordinary and she couldn't wrap her finger around what it was.As soon as she entered her room, she left a trail of clothes on the floor and wal
