Charlotte’s POVHe smiled at me, led me to my hotel room, then sighed and said, "Call me if you need anything. I already told the security guard to be very wary, because Logan might come back and cause more trouble." “Cedric, I can’t thank you enough for your help.” He said, “Don’t mention it.” I gave him a shy smile as I’m about to close the door, and whispered softly, “Goodnight…” “I’ll see you tomorrow?” I didn't want to disappoint him, so I smiled, nodded, and hesitantly said, "Yes, sure." But the fact is that I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to see him again tomorrow since I didn't want to continue to make his life more difficult in any way. His help this night was more than enough for me to cherish.I took a few deep breaths and glanced at the bed as I pulled the door shut while wearing a glum expression on my face. After that, I touched my diamond necklace. I took a pillow with me and slept on the floor. I'm not sure why I was like this, but I find that when I slee
Charlotte’s POVBecause I was so hungry, I ate the apple pie he ordered and even drank his coffee since he didn't touch it. He smiled at me and asked, "Oh, you're hungry? Then you told me you weren't. I think you told me a lie." I used a towel to wipe my mouth and told her, "That's not a big deal. Thank you for the meal." I stood up and cleaned the table. "Well, you should get to work. I'll find you a nice place to stay. Ralph told me that he kicked you out of the house last night, so I punished him for that."I lowered my voice. “Why do you have to punish him? It was enough that you tortured him already and please don’t find a place for me, I’ll be staying with a friend in the meantime until I get my paycheck.” “Why do you not want me to help you? I’m just concerned about you and to think that you’re seeing Cedric—” I cut him off, “I’m not going to see him again.” When he heard that, he smiled. I was about to say something, but Amara called me away to help another customer. "I
Charlotte’s POV"Would I let you kiss me just because you bought me this place? Oh, no, not yet, not that fast...Logan." I moved away from him, stood up, and sighed. I tried to act brave so I wouldn't give in to his hungry, tempting lips, but I can't help but bite my lower lip when I think about him kissing me deeply and me melting into his arms.“Do you want to try it?” he asked as he kissed the back of my neck. I gave him a dirty look to tell him not to start it, and he sighed and said, "Okay, you win this time. But if I wanted that kiss, I wouldn't think twice about kissing you." I didn't look at him but smiled and groaned behind his back. My feet still hurt from all the work I did in the kitchen today. I entered the room and sat on the bed with my head down. I didn't realize he had followed me until he put his arm on the door and stared at me. “Are you tired?” I nod, “Yeah, But I can do this.” "Why don't you apply for a job that would fit you?" He asked. "I can't. My adoptiv
Charlotte’s POVI woke up feeling so sore, and my body felt heavy. I lost my balance when I got to the bathroom, and I found my panties and clothes there. Then I clean it and put it in the laundry. When I went to the kitchen, I was startled as I saw Logan drinking his coffee while reading the news on his phone.“Why are you still here?” He put his phone down, and walked towards me with a smirk on his face, "I told Ricardo to take care of all the things for me while I'm on my little holiday." I bit my lower back as I thought about what happened last night. It was surreal but it actually happened because the center part of my body felt sore. He grabbed my waist and kissed my lips, then asked. "Do you have a dress for tonight?" I was so busy that I almost forgot that today was Casey's Big Event, and now I have no idea what kind of event I was supposed to go to in the first place."I don't have anything to wear..." I replied with reluctance and then opened the refrigerator in search of
Charlotte’s POVLogan took me to a place I had never been before. When we got there, a young blonde woman greeted us warmly. She showed us around her shop, where there were a lot of lovely gowns for tonight's big party. My eyes sparkled beautifully because I'd never worn a gown in my life, and I'd never been to a debut because Miguel forgot my birthday, and I cried for a whole month. Even though I was upset and angry, he didn't care about me at that time. Only Nanny Grace took good care of me. She took me and her son, Diego, to the mall on my birthday.I thought about Diego again. He moved to another country to follow his dream of becoming a pilot, and now he's a pilot and happy with his life. Nanny Grace would be very proud of him. Logan gave me a little shake of the hand to wake me up because I was too busy thinking about the past. I gave him a quick look and said, "What are you saying?" "I said pick whatever you want, and then talk to Jess about the gown that you've chosen." He
Logan’s POV I haven't gone anywhere without a woman for a long time, and now that I have Charlotte with me, Cedric wants to take her away from me. I can tell by the way she looks at Charlotte. He always had his eyes on her. Casey saw that, and as soon as she did, she started to feel less close to Cedric. She went to Charlotte and asked, "Charlotte, can we talk?" I know this woman will only ask about Cedric, so I stopped Charlotte and said, "Casey can talk to you later, right?" She gave Casey a quick look, and Casey's eyes filled with envy. Then she smiled at Casey and said, "Yes, of course, you don't want to be alone?" She teased me. I said, "Yeah, I'm a clingy boyfriend you know?" "You're not my---" Casey's grandma, Felicity, interrupted us and waved at us happily. She gave Charlotte a happy kiss on the cheek. "Oh my god! You look incredibly good!" Casey let out a long sigh in the corner as she watched her friend be the center of attention, especially since some of Charlot
Charlotte’s POV“Logan what’s going on?” I asked him as he drove the car away from the Villa. Then as his eyes were focused on driving, the silence between us was even louder. I kept glancing at him, but his mind was so full of entangled thoughts that he couldn’t tell me what it was. His eyes whetted, and the force he gripped the wheel made it seem like it might snap at any moment. I reached out and touched his shoulder, saying, "You need to calm down or we both die!" When he saw that Cedric's car was following us, he looked at me with guilty eyes and grunted. "This scumbag jerk again! What the hell did he want from me?" He stopped the car in the middle of the road. Then, he got out of his car with a gun and pointed it at Cedric. I had trouble breathing when I saw how angry Logan looked. He asked Cedric calmly but threateningly, "What are you trying to do? To stop me? To win her heart? Well, you should know that Charlotte will always pick me over you. If she didn't want me, she wo
Charlotte’s POVI was sitting at my desk when the door to my office opened. I looked down and saw a pair of red heels on the floor. When I looked up, Samantha had barged in and looked around as if she didn't like what she saw. Then she looked at me disgusted and said, "I just don't understand why my brother would give money to someone like you! You really turned me off, chick. Did he give you money because you work for him? slave to bed, right?" "You could have asked your brother. I don't know why he's doing this for me either. But it's in my name and it's my dream to own a fancy diner like this one. Samantha, your brother is not kidding at all. He really bought me this." I smiled sweetly, and that made her lips purse in anger."You! You'd better shut up, you bitch! He bought this place for you with the money that comes from our family. Tell me how much you want so you'll stop bothering my brother. I don't want him to be in danger because of you. You are the devil's daughter—" I int
