Kylie’s POV.As I sat in the garden, reflecting on the chaos I’d sown in Graham and Flora’s lives, I felt a sense of satisfaction. “They deserve every bit of it,” I thought, a smile curling my lips. But now, it was time to focus on something else—my own healing.A few days passed, and I could feel my strength returning. Logan noticed, too, his eyes lighting up with delight whenever he saw me. “You’re looking better every day,” he said, his voice full of warmth.“Thanks to you,” I replied, genuinely grateful for his support.One morning, Logan approached me with a gleam in his eye. “I have a surprise for you,” he announced.“Really? What is it?” I asked, curiosity piqued.“You’ll see,” he said with a wink, leading me to his car.We drove for a while, the scenery changing from urban to rural. Finally, we arrived at a secluded property hidden from the world. The gates opened, revealing a beautiful house nestled amidst lush greenery. My breath caught at the sight of it.“Logan, thi
Kylie’s POV.As I sat in the back of the cab, heading back to my house from the swimming pool, my thoughts drifted to Logan. His touch, his kiss, how he made me feel safe—it was all so overwhelming. I couldn’t deny that I was falling for him, even if I wasn’t ready to admit it to myself fully.The sudden jolt of the cab stopping pulled me out of my reverie. I looked up to see a group of people blocking the road. My heart sank as I recognized them—Umbra Academy. This time, they didn’t look hostile. Instead, they seemed intent on talking.One of the administrators, a stern-looking man with piercing eyes, stepped forward. “We need to talk,” he said, his voice firm but not aggressive.I hesitated, glancing at the cabbie. “It’s okay,” the administrator continued. “We’re not here to harm you. We just need a conversation.”Reluctantly, I nodded and handed the cabbie half the fare. “Wait here for me,” I told him, trying to sound confident. “I won’t be long.”The cabbie nodded, and I step
Kylie’s POV.I could feel the tension radiating off Logan as we returned to our place. His anger was palpable, and I knew it stemmed from the encounter with the Umbra Academy. “Why would she take me there?” I imagined him thinking, the confusion and frustration eating at him. The weight of the day’s events pressed down on both of us, and I knew I had to do something to alleviate his stress.Once inside, I headed straight to the bedroom, trying to think of a way to ease his mind. Moments later, Logan entered, his face a storm of emotions. Without hesitation, I walked over to him, placing my finger gently on his lips. “Shh,” I whispered, looking into his eyes. “Calm down.”I could see the fire in his gaze, but he didn’t pull away. Instead, he watched me intently, his breathing heavy. I let my fingers trace the outline of his lips, feeling the heat between us intensify. Slowly, I moved closer, my lips brushing against his cheek. The warmth of his skin sent a shiver down my spine.“Let
Kylie’s POV.As the morning light streamed through the window, I woke up, stretching lazily. I glanced over to see Logan still asleep beside me, his expression peaceful. The events of last night replayed in my mind, each touch, each kiss, a testament to our deepening bond. “I’ve never felt like this before,” I thought, my heart swelling with emotions. “Logan is everything I’ve ever wanted.”Yet, as much as my heart was filled with love, my mind couldn’t shake off the mission that still lingered. Ruining Graham and Flora was not just a goal; it was a necessity. “I can’t get distracted now,” I reminded myself, though my thoughts kept drifting back to Logan.I sighed softly, trying to refocus. “Stay sharp, Kylie. You’ve come this far. Don’t lose sight of the bigger picture.” I slipped out of bed, careful not to wake Logan, and headed to the kitchen to make coffee. The aroma filled the air, grounding me as I planned my next moves.Later that day, I found myself talking to Damian, one o
Kylie’s POV.As I sifted through the myriad of Logan’s business ventures, my gaze landed on his pharmaceutical company. “Why haven’t I noticed this before?” I mused, feeling a spark of curiosity. The company had been facing many issues—dwindling profits, supply chain disruptions, regulatory challenges, and even a recall of a popular product due to quality concerns. My mind raced as I connected the dots. “Flora’s pharmaceutical company is doing well in the beauty products sector. This could be my chance to undermine her from another angle.”I delved deeper into the reports, my fingers flying over the keyboard as I analyzed the data. “Low profit margins, declining sales, and a damaged reputation,” I muttered, my thoughts aligning with each revelation. “This is perfect. If I can turn this company around, I can also lure Flora’s clients away and drive her business into the ground.”My confidence surged as I reviewed my own qualifications. “My major in college was pharmacology with a
Kylie’s POV.As Logan left my office, I watched him go, feeling satisfied and determined. The door closed behind him, and I turned my attention to the window. From there, I could see Flora being thrown out of the building by security. Her face was a twisted mask of fury and despair, her shouts echoing through the courtyard.“Prepare yourself, Anne! I won’t leave you easy!” Flora screamed, her voice dripping with venom. “I’ll find out who you really are, you and Logan both!”I couldn’t help but smile at her rage. “Poor Flora,” I thought, a smirk playing on my lips. “She’s scrambling in vain, like a moth to a flame. She doesn’t realize this battle was lost before it began.”I moved away from the window and sat back down in my chair, feeling the power of my position. “She still doesn’t know about the relationship between Anne and Graham,” I mused, tapping my fingers on the desk. “Once she finds out her precious man is already drooling over me, she’ll be in for the shock of her life.”
Kylie’s POV.I crouched in the shadows, my heart racing with anticipation. The moment I had been waiting for was about to unfold. Flora burst into Graham’s office, her face a mask of concern and confusion. “Graham!” she gasped, her chest heaving.Graham, unexpecting her visit, looked shocked to see her. “Flora, what are you doing here at this hour?”Flora, falling short of breath, said, “We need to get you to the hospital. Your secretary called and said you were very sick. What’s going on?”Graham’s eyes widened. “Flora, what are you talking about? I’m perfectly fine. Why would you think I’m sick?”Flora’s brow furrowed as she struggled to catch her breath. “Your secretary called me,” she insisted. “She said you needed to be taken to the hospital immediately.”Graham shook his head, a bewildered smile spreading across his face. “Flora, I think you’ve been pranked. I’m fine, see?” He spread his arms, showcasing his health.Flora, still uncertain, approached him and placed a hand
Kylie’s POV.I dialed Graham to finish our fallen-through dinner date, ready to ruin him further. I wouldn’t rest until Flora was utterly devastated. Simply taking Graham wasn’t enough; I needed to dismantle her world piece by piece. A smirk curled my lips as I waited for him to answer, having ignored his calls and texts for days. Now was the time to lure him back, to ensnare him even more tightly in my web.Graham answered on the first ring, his voice eager and desperate. “Anne! Finally, you called. Why have you been ignoring me? Did I do something wrong?”I bit back a laugh, keeping my tone sweet. “You didn’t reply to me after I left your office that day. The day you wanted to kiss me so badly.”His voice wavered, guilt creeping in. “I’m so sorry. Flora showed up right after you left and caused a scene. Please, forgive me.”I could picture him, torn between his guilt and his desire. “Who do you love more, Graham? Me or Flora?”There was a brief pause. I imagined his internal
