Lucas POVI was so scared that Sofia wouldn't allow me to help her family. She was so stubborn at first that she wanted to refuse. But Ava came to my rescue.I was so happy. I don't know why she's hiding the identity of the man who hurt them, but I will dig into that and make sure I fish out the man; he has to be punished for what this family passed through. I was lost in my thoughts when Adam came into my office. "I have spoken with the doctor, and he made me realize her chances of survival are 50% if we really want to carry out the operation. And my bill is huge." He said, and I glared dangerously at him."So did you ridicule me to that extent? Do you think I am afraid to pay the bills? All I wanted was for this operation to be successful. I can't watch Sofia break down if anything happens to her. Why would they be giving 50% chances just for eye surgery? I don't want to hear about that.Look for any other hospital, because I know there are many across the world. Search till you

I can't just sit without doing anything, love won't make me stop my revenge never. I will like to split their family, his mother is my biggest enemy. Ava is just a sweet girl, did she even think I was crying because of the slap her grandmother gave you? This is the best joke I have ever heard.

But I can't do that, Ava will be worried about me. I remember what mother told me, few days ago.'i don't want a bloody revenge, Sophia. I don't understand what you're trying go do by dating me, but I
Lucas POV I walk briskly toward her room while Ava stay behind, and I push the door open once I arrive at the doorstep. I stop on my track when I walk into the room and find her sitting on the bed, hugging her knees to herself while having her face buried between them, and crying profusely like she would just lost someone. Strangely, I feel this unexplainable pain in my heart, seeing her like that hurts me for a reason I'm clueless about, and I bite my bottom lip. Why did mum decided to come here and make her cry? What right does she have to do that? My blood boil Im rage and I feel like seeing mum right now, she has to tell me why the hell she came here without informing me, does she think she can come here without telling me?

She's already crying profusely and I can only wonder w

He says and pointed his middlelle finger at his mother"How dare you, how dare you point your fingers at me right. She must be casting a spell on you. I know she's a witch!" she shouted and jerked his hand away. "I love it even if she's using a spell. Is it your spell?" If it is a spell, I really love it. Didn't you also say the same thing when I introduced Emily to you? This isn't going to happen. I won't allow that. But if you continue, you won't love my reaction" He warned and rushed out of the house angrily. "What will you do? I am your mother. And I will decide what is best for you. Understand you have to listen to me. I don't know what came over you. You are just so full of yourself" She shoute
Lucas POVThis is my amazing daughter; she is so full of herself, just like my mother. It's true that a trait can be strong. I couldn't believe she was asking me if she could control me. Like, who is the father here? I was so speechless and glared wonderfully at her. "Baby, let's go now.You must be stressing dad. He hasn't rested since he came back," Sofia said, and she squatted to her level."Sofia, I am very sorry for what my mother did. This won't repeat itself again," I said, trying hard not to gaze at her."Uncle Adam, come with me. I have something you need to do for me," Ava said, walking towards my room. This girl is so wonderful, so she wanted us to have our privacy and deceived Adam. After they left, I chuckled. "Hmm" I hums."You don't have to worry, as long as I have Ava with me. She's my happiness, and I can't afford to see her stay far away," she said, shoving her head in the ground. Why is she staring at the ground instead of looking at me? I moved closer and used my

I don't know how mother will feel. We don't have the money for her surgery and I can't tell Lucas not to help, that's not possible I want my mum to see again, I don't like seeing her like this."Are you for real?" I asked and rushed into his arm he was taking aback. I buried my face on his chest and he chuckled. I can see you're very happy, I am glad you're happy. He says and ruffle my hair with his hand. I withdraw my head from his chest and stare into his eyes, I feel like kissing him but I can't bring myself to do that, I don't know what he fucking did to me. He raised my chin up with his hand and draw his lips closer to mine, he slam his lips on mine and I was taki
Sofia POVAnd this is my chance, I will sure ask him about Ava's mother. he had to tell me what happened to her. Did she married her or just a victim of rape like me?, I just need to asked him. I can't hide this anymore. And I don't think he should be hiding this from me. At least he considers me a girlfriend now, right? What was I thinking? I am really taking this far. I am just here for revenge. I'll strip off my feet like that. After walking through the building, I finally got to the entrance of the garden. And I saw him there, waiting patiently for me, immediately he saw me, a cute smile lit his face. I try to avoid his gaze, but he won't stop staring, and that makes me almost lose my step because of the nervousness. I just have to summon some courage, I can't always misbehave around him."You don't have to be nervous around me, Sophia, come over here and have your seat," he said, smiling. And I shyly went to sit beside him. He chuckled before smiling at me, and I feigned a smil
Lucas POVAfter I finally told Sofia how I felt about her, there was a long silence, and the lady that appeared in front of me looked really confused. Why is she confused? If it were possible for me to read her mind, I would just do that. When I saw that the silence was already killing me, I decided to break it."You can take your time; I am not rushing you," I said, and she nodded her head in reply.I couldn't stop myself from glaring at her. Like she's really driving me crazy, and if not for the fact that I have already promised not to do anything in the garden, I will have to go for her lips, even though I know she will decline. I was so happy kissing her a few days ago. Her lips was so sweet and soft that I didn't want to compare. But I must say that her lips were more sweet than Emily's."So what do you wanna ask me? That question brought me back to reality. And I gulp down my lumps and smile. With the way she was looking, she thought I wanted to mock her. But it was the questio

A few days laterLucas private captain announced the arrival of the plane at the new york city. Lucas and Sophia smiled at each other as they walked hand in hand out of the plane. A car was already waiting; Lucas led her into the car by opening the passenger door, leaving the driver to go get their luggage."You owned this car too?" she asked, just wanting to be sure. "Well! I do; you know I am freaking rich," he said arrogantly."Don't try to be pompous, Mr. Owner." They both smiled at the joke. He went into the car from the other side."Sir, it's been a while since you've been here; it's good seeing you again." His driver said, and he scoffed."Yes, I have been busy with work. How's everything here in New York?" He asked, trying to start a discussion."It's cool, sir; we've been pushing through." He replied, focusing on the road. They discuss some random things and also crack jokes with them, making the drive to the Logan house a smooth one.Getting to the house, Sophia saw the mar
Sophia came to their house to give them the news about her and Lucas going on a trip. She can't wait to announce that news to her family, but coming there, she saw Stephen dressing."Hey! "Are you going to school today, and what's the time?" Sophia asked, wondering why Stephen was dressing up really hot. Is he trying to impress someone?"Did I look cute? Please be serious," he asked, waiting for her reply. "Why are you dressing up so serious? Are you going to a party?" she asked, and Stephen chuckled softly."I guess the problem I have with you is that you ask questions a lot. Well! Today is Natalie's birthday, so I promise to take her around. Tell me where you can take a girl so as to make them happy?" he asked, waiting to hear from Sophia, who was just staring at her. She had come to express her happiness, but he's here playing a lover boy."Take her to hellfire; that's where girls love." She said with a slight hint of jealousy in her voice."Are you jealous that my son is now goin
Two Months Later"So where did you say we are going to?" Sophia looked up at Lucas with a bright smile, ready to go anywhere with him. Lucas pretended to be in deep thought, rubbing his chin before flashing his trademark smirk. The sun was shining down on them, casting a warm glow on the couple as they chatted. "I don't know for now," Lucas said coyly, watching as Sophia rolled her eyes but in a playful way. Sophia stepped closer to Lucas, narrowing her eyes slightly. "Tell me where we are going to when I am being nice," she teased. Lucas continued to hold back the surprise, delighted by Sophia's playful demeanor. "It's a surprise," he finally relented. "It's good to have some alone time to ourselves. Ava is with her grandmother, so I don't think we'll have any disturbances. Let's spend three days in another country. I promise to only think of you." A gentle breeze picked up and the surrounding trees rustled slightly in agreement with Lucas' romantic plan.Sophia's face lit up wit
"You don't have to worry, sweetheart; mom will be okay." He reassured her and sniffled."Should I come over? I want to see her?" She asked, her tone filled with worry."No, stay there. I will come get you soon," Lucas's voice strains through the phone."Okay, dad, I wished Mom a quick recovery." She prayed, her voice low. The call ended, and Lucas dipped the phone into his pocket. He went closer to the bed and sat on the edge, caressing Sophia's face.The hospital counterStephen and Kingsley rushed into the hospital and rushed to the counter, breathing heavily, their faces full of worries. They looked around but couldn't find Lucas."Please, my sister, where's she?" She was rushed here, and my brother in-law called to inform me that she needed a donor. I am here; can you take my blood sample?" He spoke sharply, his voice laced with concerns for her sister."What's your sister's name, and which ward?" The nurse in charge asked."Her name is Sophia Owen, but we didn't know her ward. We
She took the phone closer to ear immediately she clicked on the answer button. "Nice hearing your voice. I couldn't fathom that you're calling me personally. That's strange. Anyway, what did you call me for?" She said the last sentence sarcastically. Lucas was yelling at her end, and she could sense him boiling in anger right now. She burst into laughter before hearing his voice again. "Elena, where the hell did you put my child? Where's my child?" "This is kinda funny, I don't know how you got my number, I thought you don't have my number," she replied, "Anyway, she's also my child. Why are you panicking? Are you afraid I might hurt her? If you're afraid, yes, I can hurt her," she added. "No, Elena, you can't do that. She's your child, your blood." Lucas pledged and Elena scoffed at Lucas' words."Blood? I don't know why weak people like you believe you can't hurt your blood. I can hurt her, she's nothing to me," she said. "What did you want from me, Elena?" Lucas asked, In a n
FlashbackSophia was about getting to the school when a car crushed hers. "What the fuck" She cussed and get down the car to check who the hell did that. The person whined down the glass and it turned out to be Elena. A sinister grin played by her lips as she stepped down the car. She folded her hands together and put it on her breast, she slammed the door with her legs her body rested on her car. Sandra step down from the other side of the car. "You evil Lady, where have you being hiding? And what's your motive for showing up here?. I guess you must want to kill me right?" Her voice filled with rage, glaring aggressively at her, her teeth gritted her eyes shallow on her. "You know what, I love to see people like you brag, empty vessel" She laughed sarcastically."If you were so bold enough, you shouldn't have hid. You should have come out bitter soul" She confronted her, her chest boiling in rage, as their gaze meet.. Elena was already losing it, she clenched her fist, her eyes b
"Going to get Elena, she can't escape this, she dare killed my child, she'll regret ever crossing my path" Mrs. Logan speaks with a fierce determination. Her words are filled with anger and hatred towards Elena. ***** Elena and Sandra make a grand entrance into a club, where the music is booming and the atmosphere is lively. The club is filled with excitement and energy, and Elena appears to be basking in the thrill of it. Sandra is by her side. They came to celebrate."Did you think Leon will be dead by now?" Sandra's voice struggled to be heard above the music and din in the club as she asked Elena a question. Elena asked her to speak louder. "Did you think Leon will be dead by now?" Sandra shouted. Elena nods her head without a hint of pity on her face, "Sure, Leon can't be alive, he is gone," she replied, with a touch of amusement in her voice. They exited the club each holding a cigarette. As they walked, "What's your next plan, Elena?" Sandra asked and Elena replied with a
Lucas darted to his parked car as fast as he could. His heart pounded against his chest as he flung open the back door and carefully lowered his brother, Leon, on the seat. Without a moment's hesitation, Lucas jumped into the driver's seat, revved the engine and peeled out of the parking lot, breaking every traffic law in his way. The screeching of tires and sudden jolt of every sudden stop echoed through the empty road as he sped towards the hospital. He didn't even bother to park the car properly when he arrived, instead, he leapt out and sprinted towards the entrance, holding Leon's limp body in his arms. "Doctor! My brother must come out alive!" Lucas's voice broke as tears streamed down his face. The nurses whisked Leon away from him, rushing him to the available wards as Lucas and the rest of the Logan family followed closely behind. "Are you sure my son will be fine?" Lucas's mother broke down in tears, collapsing onto the cold, hard floor. Her hand clutched her forehead as
