Emily's POV

I was taken aback by the mixture of emotions that swirled inside me. Sighting Logan once again sent a wave of emotions crashing over me.. Anger, hurt, and a hint of sadness all battled for dominance. I didn't know how to react or what to say.

All I could do was stand there, my eyes fixed on Logan's, as the world around me melted away.

Logan's gaze never wavered, his eyes burning with an intensity that made me feel like he could see right through me. The sounds of horns blaring and cars moving jolted me out of my reverie.

Swiftly, Logan alighted from his car after parking it at the side of the road.

He had a collected composure as he approached me with his long legs.

“How are you Emily?” He asked, his voice rich with concern but I didn't give a response

Carl wrapped his arms around me, coughing incessantly while I tapped him gently on the back.

    Logan's POVAs the days rolled by, I could feel the weight of the situation hung heavily on my shoulders. Emily has been avoiding me and I'm still keen on getting the DNA test for Carl.I paced back and forth in my room, my mind racing with various thoughts.The sound of the door being slammed against the wall got my attention. With furrowed brows, I shifted my gaze in the direction.A sigh escaped my lips when I realized it was Vivian.“Good morning, Logan,” She greeted, holding a mug and stirring the content in it with a spoon.“Morning but why do you have to bang the door!” I replied in a cold tone.“I had to slam the door just to get your attention, darling husband because it seems you're deep in thoughts once again,” She mumbled, clicking her tongue as she neared me.Her lips curled into a lopsided smile. As I fixed the cufflinks on my sleeve cuff, she helped me with adjusting my collar. My lips conformed into a thin line, knowing she was pulling an act of pretense. She wasn't t

    Logan's POVI paced back and forth in Samantha's office, my mind racing with thoughts of Carl and the DNA test. I had tried to reason with Emily, to convince her to agree to the test, but she had refused. Now, I'm left with no choice but to take drastic measures.“A Court order for DNA?” Samantha asked, adjusting her spectacles as she peered at me.“Yes,” I replied, my voice firm and unwavering.“So you mean, four year old Carl Gills, the son of Emerald Gills is your son as well?” She asked while I nodded in confirmation.Samantha sighed deeply as she raised an eyebrow. "Logan,” She began, and my heart skipped a beat as though the weight of her words could break the fragile calm of her office.“I understand your concerns, but getting a court order without Emily's consent will be difficult. We'll need to prove that you have a legitimate reason for requesting the test."My jaw clenched and I paused in a track. "I have a legitimate reason," I replied, "I want to know if Carl is my son

    Emily’s POV The night passed slowly, each minute dragging in like an eternity. Dawn crept in through the curtain, casting a pale light across the room, but it did nothing to lift the weight on my chest. Logan had commenced processing a DNA verification for Carl, and although he had discussed it with me earlier, I still couldn’t believe he’d commenced it without my approval. Sitting on the bed, I sighed and slammed the alarm with my palm. The blaring sound went off, and silence ensued. My phone chimed after a while. Yawning, I stared at the caller ID through hodded eyes. “Kate,” I mumbled, sitting on the bed and reclining on the headboard. “Hi Emerald , Good morning. How was your night?” Kate asked, concerned. “My night was fine. How was yours?” “It was great. I spent the night at Jeremy’s. I’m on my way home.. Guess what Jeremy did last night?” Kate asked, her voice tinged with excitement. I nibbled my lips and crossed my legs on top of the other, hinting at what it co

Samantha, my lawyer was beside me, eager to help me win this case..Emily has her lawyer beside her, Jenkins–one of the most renowned and famous lawyers in New York. The air seems to thicken as everywhere suddenly becomes warm, a stark contrast to the air outside.Each time I stare at Emily, she doesn't even look in my direction. Even in the middle of the case, I just couldn't help but admire her beauty. She looked so hot in that black minidress of hers which gave justice to her well endowed curves and behind. It took a lot of self-control for me to refocus myself to stop staring.“Mr. Logan.”. Samantha mumbled, grabbing my attention.“Yes.”“I’m glad the result turned out positive. And as for the custody case…. I'll do my best.” “Thank you, Samantha,” I replied, straightening my tie

I couldn’t help but worry because I’m starting to feel she’s still upset about the whole thing that happened at the restaurant back there. I stared at my reflection in the mirror, a stern look on my face. After raking my fingers through my hair and ensuring it was smooth, I wore my suit over my sparkling white shirt. My lips conformed into a thin line as I adjusted my cufflinks and wore my wristwatch. My phone chimed, alerting me of an incoming call. I peered at the screen. It was Alex calling. Alex is part of the members in our mafia clan. Picking his call, I propped the phone between my ear and my shoulder as I fixed the time on my wristwatch. “Hello, Alex. What’s up?” I greeted, strolling to my shoe rack to get myself a pair of brogues. “Good. I just want to inform you that the meeting commences by nine. Anyone who fails to attend early will be punished by Lorenzo. He made it clear the
