Lawton has mixed feelings as he stares at his food as Logan's comment about his father strikes a nerve with him.He started to rethink everything that had happened to him and this brought him sad memories.He also began to think deeply about the comment Logan had made about his father.He hated that Logan disrespected his father like that but he knew he had to remain calm to find out the main reason he was there.Mr Logan's taunts had begun to get to Lawton."Aren't you going to eat," Logan said as he looked at Lawton who continued to stare at his food."Did my words affect you that much," he added, laughing."The food smells so good," Lawton said, pulling himself together as he picked up the fork in front of him.Logan continued to worry about how his words had not intimidated Lawton.This startled him as he had expected Lawton to punch him in the face or do something irritational as he spoke rudely about his father but his taunts had just been met with a stone-cold silence.Logan wa
Lawton's eyes widened in surprise as he heard Logan's answer. He looked at him in surprise as he wondered why Logan would want him.He hadn't expected the answer he got from Logan.He wondered what Logan had meant by wanting him as a look of confusion crossed his face.Lawton hesitated for a minute but composed himself as he sat down on the chair."I do not understand what you mean," Lawton said."You want me?" Lawton continued."What does that even mean? I need an explanation," Lawton added."I see potential in you, Lawton," Logan said, looking at a confused Lawton."I want you to join my Empire, Lawton," Logan added, with a stern expression.Lawton burst into laughter as he heard Logan talk, surprised Logan would even think of asking him something like that."You want me to join your Empire?" Lawton said, still laughing."You thought I was going to agree to this," Lawton continued."This is why you invited me here?" Lawton added.Logan was taken aback by Lawton's words.He wondered
Logan was taken aback by Lawton's reaction. He had thought threatening to hurt Amanda would have made Lawton scared and agree to his proposal immediately.He couldn't believe Lawton was unfazed by his threats but pulled himself together as he didn't want Lawton to know he was stunned by his reaction.Logan watched as Lawton gazed at him while he talked with a calm, unreadable gaze.He then started to wonder why Lawton was so calm despite his threats and where Lawton got his unwavering confidence from.Logan concluded Lawton was now working with someone very powerful as he could not think of anywhere else Lawton could have gotten his boldness from.He then decided to apply more pressure and continue to threaten Lawton."You are willing to risk your wife's life because of your stubbornness," Logan said, smiling."Amanda's blood will be on your hand," he continued."I'm not going to spare her Lawton," he added."I would look to see you try," Lawton said, angrily, gazing at Logan."I woul
The journey back to the penthouse was a peaceful one for Lawton.He was tired as he had worked a double shift before going for dinner and he had not had any proper rest.All Lawton wanted to do was go home to his wife but knew he couldn't as he had to go back to the penthouse to inform Smithson about everything that had just happened at the dinner and plan their next step.The driver soon got to the penthouse and informed Lawton who was almost dozing off at the back seat."We are here boss," the driver said, facing him."Okay," A tired Lawton said, as he walked out of the car, walking towards the entrance of the penthouse.Smithson was at the entrance of the Penthouse as he rushed down immediately he heard Lawton's car drive into the compound."Welcome youngmaster," Smithson said, as he saw a tired Lawton walking towards him."You seem very tired young master,' he continued."Did the dinner go well?" Smithson added."Let's talk in the penthouse," Lawton said as he walked inside.Logan
Lawton is tense as he watched Smithson talk. He immediately started to wonder how Logan had gotten his location."Get all the guards ready now," Lawton said as he looked at Smithson.Smithson immediately picked up his phone and ordered all the guards to come into the penthouse immediately."How did this happen?" Lawton said, facing a clueless Smithson."You were supposed to be tracking him, how is he tracking us instead?" Lawton continued."How did he know I was coming here?" Lawton added.Smithson looked at Lawton as talked, he was also as clueless as him."I don't know how this happened youngmaster," Smithson said, bowing his head."He must have followed me here," Lawton said.The guards soon came inside the penthouse and Smithson instructed them to all get their weapons ready as they were going to be under attack soon."Get all your weapons ready!" Smithson stated firmly, facing the guards."Go now! we do not have much time to prepare," Smithson added.The guards rushed out of the
Lawton continued to hope he would get a cab which would take him home soon as he waited by the roadside.He then thought of calling a cabman himself as he brought his phone out of his pocket but stopped as he saw a glimmer of light in the distance.Sighing in relief, Lawton waved at the cab as the car drove towards his direction.The car pulled up in front of Lawton as he opened the door of the cab and sat in the backseat.The driver then drove off immediately as Lawton got into the cab.This surprised Lawton as he had expected the driver to say something, but Lawton shrugged it off as he didn't want to think too much of it.Lawton settled in the cab as he closed his eyes, reminiscing about the events of the day.He thought of his dinner with Logan and smiled softly as he remembered how he had threatened Logan and put him in his place.He then also concluded they had to do something about Logan immediately as he was starting become more dangerous than he thought.Two minutes into the
Lawton looked around as he locked his gate, fearing Logan might still be following him.He then walked up to the door and opened it with his key as he didn't want to disturb Amanda who might be sleeping.Lawton walked into his house carefully and closed the door as he walked into his living room.Lawton sat down on a chair, relieved he was finally home after everything that had happened.Lawton then dialed Smithson's number immediately as he knew he had to talk to him."Hello youngmaster," Smithson said as he answered."I have been waiting for your call, I was getting worried about you," he added.Lawton then explained everything that had happened to him to Smithson.A surprised Smithson then told Lawton to stay indoors until the next morning."Please stay indoors until you deem it safe to go outdoors," Smithson said.Smithson then asked Lawton if he should send some bodyguards over but Lawton refused as he didn't want Amanda to suspect anything was wrong."I'm glad you are safe young
Lawton watched as Amanda fell asleep but he couldn't sleep as Logan's threats about harming her if he didn't say yes to his partnership continued to ring in his head.He lay awake as he continued to stare at Amanda, his mind racing with different thoughts.He knew he needed to sleep as he had to go to work the next day but he couldn't as his mind refused to quiet down.He wondered what they were going to do about Logan as he was getting bolder with his approaches.Lawton started to get scared Logan might hurt his wife if he didn't act fast."I can't let Logan hurt her," he muttered to himself, as he watched her sleep.Lawton then suddenly remembered the woman who insulted Amanda at the party and concluded he needed to take care of her first before doing any other thing.He had been so occupied with Logan and work that he completely forgot about it.He knew he had to find her as soon as possible as he had better things to worry about.He wondered what he was going to do when he finally
