Logan's POVMy eyes slowly went open but I was still having blurred visions , I closed my eyes again and after a while I slowly opened it , immediately my vision cleared I realized I was lying on the bare floor , I sat up immediately wondering where the hell I am and my memories from earlier began to resurface. I was kidnapped, who the hell would want to kidnap me and why?!.My hands was tied to tightly and connected to my legs also.I quickly began to wriggle my hands in a bid to loosen the ropes , and after some seconds it came loose , I raised it up to my mouth and used my teeth too loose it completely, immediately my hands were free I reached for the ropes on my legs and loosened it also.There was a small window in the room and I quickly stood up and headed for it , immediately I got to the window I realized it was a very tall building and down below I could only see water , this place was surrounded by water."I think you should just go ahead and jump out" I heard someone say an
Logan's POV 7:00 pm ..."Thank you" I whispered totally drained of any form of strength and he nodded with a small smile , as soon as I came down he zoomed off.I quickly reached for my pocket took out my phone and dialled Ashton's number."I'm at freedom Road, can you please come with a Taxi to pick me up" I said to him and before he could complete saying the yes word , I ended the call.I slowly staggered backwards as I looked for a place to sit , I found an empty chair at the bus terminal, I took slow shaky steps there before finally taking my seat.I clinged on to my bag as my whole body shook , recounting what just happened to me."Oh My God , Logan!" I heard a familiar voice say and I looked up to see Ashton stepping out of the taxi and rushing up to me.Immediately he got to me , he took my bag from me , helped me up and we began walking towards the taxi.We got in and the driving zoomed off. The journey to his house was a very quiet one , I think he understood the message, I
Ariana's POV Evening 4:30 pm ...I took slow confident strides into the restaurant .I was putting a pink and white stripped blazer and a pant trouser with that same material.Immediately the workers there sighted me , they scurried clumsily and I rolled my eyes .Such unprofessionalism."When you told me about this plan , I had pictured this place empty" I said as I stopped in my tracks and turned to Camilla beside me."What do you mean empty ?! We can just cease operation because you're coming here!" She replied ."You know how bad that could affect us?!""I'm sorry I didn't realize what more bad could possibly happen to something that is already damaged !" I snapped and she looked at me with squinted eyebrows."The resort is not that bad" she whispered."Yeah right!" I said and scoffed."You know what? I'm not gonna argue with you, not today!" She whispered as she slowly exhaled."I already prepared the events hall for you , we'll be using there " she concluded ."Some staffs will
Meanwhile ....Ariana's POV .We were done with that we came here for , it was just I and Camilla left here , we were seating opposite each other , I was glaring while she was just staring.As usual we just had another disagreement .She sighed as she pushed her chair backwards and stood up."Look, I don't want to do this with you anymore " she said ."Good , then tender your resignation letter , I don't need an assistant anyway" I retorted and she smiled ."That's not what I mean , you don't think you can get rid of me so easily right?!" She added and I rolled my eyes."What I meant is I'm tired of going back and forth with you every single time !""This is almost seven pm and we haven't achieved anything substantial today!""If we keep going on this way , I'd like to assume that you'll end up disappointing your dad!" She added."Don't you dare say that to me !" I growled , slamming my hands on the table as I stood up also."You really are cheap huh , how dare you try to use my dad t
One week later .....Wednesday 14th September 2022 ....8:00 am ....Logan's POV"So any news from the restaurant at hong Kong?!" Ashton asked .We were less busy and today we had our shift together which rarely happens."I just refreshed my Mail about twenty seconds ago , still nothing!" "Do these people even have any idea how difficult it is to wait?!" I groaned and he let out a small laugh."Patience brother , patience " he replied , and just as I was about to say something else , two people walked up to us to order coffee.Where the hell did they come from?! I swallowed my words and we got to work."Three cups of Peppermint Mocha" the guy in front of me ordered and I nodded and as I turned the other way to get his order."Here , two cups of Iced Brown Sugar Oat Milk Shaken Espresso" I heard Ashton say ; " wow that person must have such a great taste " and I looked over my shoulder to see who made that order.I wasn't fast enough to catch the face but the only thing I saw was he
Meanwhile ....8:30 am ....Ariana's POV I opened the door to my office and walked in .Camilla was already seated on my table in a way that she was backing the door."You're quite late today " she said, not even turning to face me .I slammed the door shut and began to walk towards my table."Good Morning to you too , Camilla" I replied and took my seat in front of her.The past one week has been, hmm , Okay, she's an okay person and working with her was kind of fun and productive.I don't regret making that compromise with her one week ago , she's my kind of person except too friendly."So when I was coming to work this morning, I got two cups of coffee" I said "Then I realized , Presley wasn't here , so you can take one " I stretched out the crate to her and she took a cup."It's Iced Brown Sugar Oat Milk Shaken Espresso" I murmured as she took a small sip from it ."So in conclusion you got me coffee" she teased and laughed ."Aww, sweet " she cooed with a huge smile and a soft
David's POV 3:00 pm...."Is the job done?!" I asked Eliza immediately she walked into my office."By the job do you mean , the importation of illegal arms or getting rid of that Logan boy" she asked as she walked towards the shelf in my room and began to search through . "The both of them " I replied and she exhaled and walked back to me ."You know how difficult the situation of accomplishing both jobs are ""The importation of arms had to go by sea and they are experiencing some delay , we can't do anything we have to be patient""And the boy , he's very smart , since the last attempt on his life he had become more cautious" she said "Then do something damn it!" I snapped , I turned my chair picked up a cigarette and lighted it.I took in a deep drag and puffed the smoke out angrily."There's no need to yell, if you had covered all the bases twenty years ago , we won't be dealing with this issue " she said and I scoffed."So now it is my fault?!""No, I'm just saying you have to
