I handed the document to him, relieved that this task was finally over. “You’re welcome. Scarlett said she had to rush to the bathroom because she had a stomach ache.”Logan nodded, but then, instead of leaving, he hesitated for a moment. I could sense the change in the atmosphere between us. “By the way… how’s your son? I heard he was hospitalized a few days ago,” he asked, a little awkwardly.I was momentarily stunned. Oh, he’d heard about it. “Yes, his name is Adolf. He’s doing better now, just needs a few more days of treatment,” I answered simply. I wasn’t used to talking about personal things with people, especially Logan, who I honestly wasn’t that close to.Logan smiled faintly, probably relieved to hear the news, but I could see the confusion in his eyes. “Oh, thank goodness. That’s good to hear. The care here is good, huh?” He tried to continue the conversation, but I just nodded and replied, “Yeah, good.”A sudden silRelated chapters

Emma's POVI bit my lip, feeling even more cornered. "Scarlett, please, you're overreacting. Logan was just trying to help, that's all. Besides, I'm not looking for... anyone. My focus right now is Adolf and how he can get better soon."Scarlett looked at me with a knowing smile. "Emma, I know you want to protect Adolf and yourself, but there's no harm in opening up. Logan might be someone good for you and for Adolf. Just think about that, okay?"I sighed, feeling a little overwhelmed by this conversation. "Scarlett, I... I don't know. But for now, I just want to focus on Adolf. That's all."Scarlett finally nodded, though her mischievous gaze hadn't completely disappeared. "Okay, I won't force you. But if you change your mind, I'll be here, ready to support you."I just smiled faintly, though inside, the conversation had made my mind spin. Could Scarlett be right? I didn't want to think too much about it. What was clear was that

Logan's POV I sat in the car, staring blankly at the dark street outside the window. It was late at night, but even though my body was tired, my eyes remained open. Thoughts about Emma kept running through my head, making me unable to sleep. I don't understand why, every time I meet her as Logan, everything feels so cold and awkward. She almost never looks at me directly, let alone speak more than a few brief words. Her smile was always half-hearted if she even smiled. It felt like there was a huge distance between us, even though we were technically in the same room most of the time. And that's... that's what confuses me.She didn't know that me, Logan, and Joseph were the same person. To her, Joseph was the past—someone she hated, perhaps even more. I was the biological father of her children, but not someone who deserved to be in her life anymore. In her eyes, Joseph was a pimp, someone not worth considering. As Joseph, I

Emma's POV I knelt down beside his bed and held both of his cheeks. “Adolf, listen, honey. Mommy just wants to take care of the payment so we can go home quickly,” I said softly, trying to calm his anxious heart. “Later we can play with Adney, Ainsley, and Allonza at home. You want to go home quickly, right?”He bit his lower lip, looking hesitant for a moment. His eyes blinked a few times before he finally nodded slowly, although he still didn’t let go of my hand. “But you won’t be long, right?” he asked hopefully. I smiled and kissed his forehead which was still a little warm. “Not for long. Aunt Scarlett will take care of you. Mommy promises.”Scarlett, who was standing behind me, looked at Adolf with a reassuring smile. “Hey, Adolf, how about Aunt Scarlett bringing you some delicious chocolate for later on the road? You’ll definitely like it.”Hearing that, Adolf seemed a little calmer even though he still looked at me with a doubtful ga

Emma's POVThat night, after we returned from the hospital, I felt relieved and full of warmth. Seeing Adolf safely back home was enough to calm my heart. Adney, Ainsley, and Allonza immediately ran to Adolf as soon as we arrived home, their faces bright to welcome his return. I could see how much they missed their brother who had been absent from home for the past few days."Adolf! Are you better?" Adney exclaimed, his round eyes sparkling with joy. Allonza, the youngest, also reached out, trying to hug Adolf even though her body was smaller.Adolf nodded with a wide smile, even though his face was still a little pale. "Yes, I can go home. But my head still hurts a little," he said while gently rubbing the bandage on his head.I could only smile, even though my heart was a little worried about his health. I patted Adolf's shoulder gently, giving him support. "Adolf should rest tonight, okay? Tomorrow when he's better, we can play longer."

Emma's POV I sat at the kitchen table, checking my watch which showed 8 am. I felt a little rushed, so I immediately picked up the phone and looked for Reyna's number in my contacts. With fingers shaking slightly with anxiety, I pressed the call button and waited for the ringtone to ring.After a few seconds, Reyna’s voice came through the phone. “Hello, Emma. What’s up?”“Hello, Reyna,” I said, trying to sound calm even though I was feeling a little anxious. “I’m sorry to interrupt you so early in the morning. I just wanted to make sure you were available to babysit today.”“Oh, sure. No problem,” Reyna replied in a knowing tone. “Is there anything in particular I need to know?”“Yes,” I began, “Adolf is recovering from an accident and he still needs to rest at home. He can’t go back to school for a while. So, I’ll be going into the office today, and I need your help looking after Adney, Ainsley, and Allonza as well.”“I understand

Emma’s POVI was frustrated and exhausted, and I felt like I was stuck between wanting to give them a chance and protecting them from any possible harm. “I don’t know what to do with all of this. I just want my kids to be safe and happy. That’s my top priority. I can’t let you be a threat anymore.”Joseph nodded slowly as if he understood how difficult this was for me. “I understand, Emma. I just want you to know that I really want to change and if there’s a way to prove it, I will. I’ll wait for the right opportunity to prove myself.”I looked at Joseph with mixed emotions. The anger and disappointment that had built up over the years began to boil over inside me. He stood in front of me, pleading in an almost convincing tone, but something inside me refused to believe it.“I don’t want to hear it anymore, Joseph,” I said firmly. “You’ve always come and gone as you please, showing up when you least expect it, and now you want to talk about change

Logan's POV But Logan… She didn’t know Logan yet. Logan was someone new in her life. A man who didn’t have the burden of a heavy past between them. A man who, if given the chance, could steal her heart. I felt a new urge inside me. Maybe this was it. Maybe I shouldn’t force Emma to take Joseph back. Instead, I should be Logan. Logan who could be closer to her, who could show her that I was a different man without the burden of the past. As Logan, I could start over, without the shadow of Joseph’s failure haunting my every move. I closed my eyes for a moment, imagining the plan coming to fruition. What if I started slowly approaching Emma as Logan? I could show her my attention in a way that she never would have received from Joseph. I could be there for her, giving her support without making her feel burdened by the past. And eventually, maybe I could win her over. It felt strange, but it made sense at the same time. Emma didn’t need to know that

Logan's POVMatthew stood with his usual fake smile. His ingratiating attitude was too obvious. "President Logan, we at City of Men have managed to increase profitability by 12% in the last quarter. We are working hard to ensure that the company remains a major player in the sector. Although we have faced some headwinds, we remain focused on increasing efficiency and... uh, expanding the market."He spoke with a heavy heart, trying to get my attention with numbers that he knew would sound good. But I could see through the bullshit. Matthew might be able to fool others, but he couldn't fool me."Good," I said, cutting him off in a flat tone, "But do you really think I'm going to believe these numbers?"Matthew swallowed, nervous even though he tried to hide it. "Uh, of course, President Logan. If you want a more detailed report, I can prepare one.""I'll go down to your branch myself," I interrupted, my tone turning colder. My eyes were f

Logan’s POVThat night, the atmosphere in the restaurant Scarlett had chosen was warm and festive. Soft lights hung from the ceiling, creating an intimate atmosphere that made everyone feel comfortable. The tables were beautifully set, decorated with crisp white napkins and small candles lit, creating the perfect atmosphere to celebrate Scarlett’s promotion.When I arrived, Scarlett was already sitting in the middle of the room, surrounded by several cheerful coworkers. A wide smile lit her face when she saw me enter. I waved and felt a tinge of warmth as she waved back, signaling that I was in the right place.“Finally, Logan!” Scarlett called out as I approached, the atmosphere growing even more festive as everyone stared at me. “I was worried you wouldn’t come!”“I wasn’t going to pass up this opportunity,” I replied with a smile. Although awkward, I tried to hide the nervousness that was hanging inside me.The rest of my coworkers beg

Logan’s POVI sat in my office chair, my eyes blankly staring at the computer screen. Although I tried to focus on the pile of documents in front of me, my mind was distracted by Emma. Twice I had been rejected by the woman I wanted most in my life. Twice I had felt like I had fallen into the same abyss.The incident in front of Emma’s office was still fresh in my mind. I couldn’t understand why she was acting the way she was. When I pulled her hand away, hoping to explain my feelings, Emma instead slapped my hand away angrily. The frustration grew when I realized that her rejection was not only because of me as Logan but also because of my past as Joseph.Confusion and annoyance swept through my mind. I wanted to scream, wanting to express all the mixed emotions in my heart. Why couldn’t she open her heart to me? Why did she have to compare me to other men, especially Joseph? I felt like I was not only competing with that man but also fighting against the

Emma's POV After making sure all the kids were asleep, I walked into the room and grabbed my phone that was lying on the table. Tiredness was starting to creep up on me, but I felt the need to talk to Scarlett. For the past few days, it seemed like we hadn't spent much time together, and I needed a little cheer. I dialed Scarlett's number and picked it up when she answered. "Hello, Scarlett!" My voice was cheerful, but a little tired. "Hey, Emma! How are you?" Scarlett's voice sounded warm on the other end. "I'm fine. Just finished dinner with the kids. They're very cheerful, as usual," I replied, sitting on the edge of the bed. "That's good to hear! They must make you feel better after all the drama at work." Scarlett sounded enthusiastic, and it warmed my heart to hear her voice. "Yeah, but I'm still tired. And the Logan thing's confusing me too," I said, my voice dropping slightly. "Logan? Still bothering

Emma's POV The journey home felt lighter with their cheerful voices along the way. They kept talking about the animals they wanted to see, the games they wanted to play, and the delicious food they imagined they could try at the tourist attractions. Although tired, I felt grateful to have four children who always made me smile in the midst of all the chaos of life. And I knew that no matter what happened in the future, as long as I had them, everything would be okay. When I arrived home, I was immediately greeted with laughter and screams of joy from my children. They ran around the room holding toys they brought home from daycare. Seeing them excited made my heart flutter. I immediately changed into more casual clothes, distracting myself from the tiring day. After changing, I headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner. Even though I was tired, nothing was more satisfying to me than cooking for my children. They all loved pasta, so I decided to make

Emma's POV The question hit me hard. Yes, I was thinking about Joseph, the man who always made me feel safe, but I also knew that behind every lie I made to protect my feelings, there was a huge void that no one could fill. Not even Logan. But I couldn't just admit it. I swallowed, hardening my heart. "Yes, you're right, President Logan," I said firmly. "I like another man. And that's why I don't want you to keep bothering me. So, please, stop all this. Stop making me feel special because I don't want it." My words sounded firm, but inside, everything felt like a mess. Logan was silent, saying nothing. His gaze changed—disappointed, hurt, and maybe a little angry. But I knew that what I was doing was the only way to stop this madness. Logan shouldn't get too close to me. I wasn't the one for him. Logan finally nodded, though his eyes still flashed with disbelief. "If that's what you want, Emma," he said, his voice colder than before. "I'll stop."

Logan’s POVI was silent, feeling the weight of this burden on my shoulders. What if Scarlett was right? What if I was going to lose Emma, not because of my past, but because of the lie I’d been hiding?“But what if she can’t forgive me?” I asked, almost in despair.Scarlett smiled thinly. “If she loves you, she’ll understand. But you have to give her the chance to make that decision. You can’t live in fear all the time.”I knew Scarlett was right. I couldn’t live in the shadow of this lie. If I truly loved Emma, I had to give her the truth, no matter how hard it was.Scarlett stared at me for a moment, then took a deep breath. “Logan, you know what you have to do. Don’t waste this chance.”I nodded slowly, feeling my resolve begin to strengthen. Maybe it was time for me to stop hiding. Maybe it was time for me to face the truth, no matter the consequences.Scarlett stood up and straightened her clothes before walkin

Logan's POV "We will be restructuring the team soon, and starting today, Scarlett will be appointed general manager to replace Matthew." The room fell silent. Everyone looked shocked. Emma's eyes widened, and Scarlett looked like she couldn't believe what I had just said. "President Logan..." Scarlett finally said in a shaky voice, clearly uncomfortable with the situation. "Is... this final?" I didn't budge. "Yes. It's final." "But why me?" Scarlett asked again, her eyes staring at me with a confused look as if she didn't want to believe what she had just heard. "And why now? There was no warning, no prior discussion." "Scarlett," I said in a colder tone. "You know this company needs a leader who can make quick decisions. You're the right person for that." She was still looking at me with doubt, and out of the corner of my eye, I could see Emma looking confused and a little anxious t

Emma's POVI opened my office door with shaking hands, trying to calm myself after what happened earlier. My head was still full of all the commotion that happened, but I couldn't let it bother me any longer. As I stepped into the room, my gaze fell on my desk, which was usually my sanctuary, but this time it felt like a burden. I sat down on the chair, took a deep breath, and tried to think clearly, but my head was filled with voices colliding with each other.A moment later, my office door opened slowly, and Scarlett walked in. Her expression immediately changed when she saw my face which must have looked confused."Emma, what happened outside?" Scarlett asked, her eyes full of worry. "I heard the commotion, and everyone was talking about you."I took a deep breath, feeling the weight on my chest getting heavier as I had to tell this again. "Thea came… and she slapped me in front of everyone," I said, still not believing that it really happene

Emma's POVWhen Logan pulled my hand, I could only stare for a few seconds. The atmosphere around me felt so foreign, even though I had just arrived at the office a few minutes ago. And suddenly, Thea came attacking me like a storm. Then Logan appeared, like a hero protecting the victim, but I was not a victim, and I didn't want him to protect me like this. Especially with the way he handled the situation earlier, telling Thea to leave and then canceling the business cooperation. It was too much.I pulled my hand from his grip, and the feelings that were boiling in my chest immediately exploded."President Logan, what are you doing?" I asked in a firm tone, trying to calm myself even though my blood was still boiling. My eyes looked directly into his calm eyes. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at the head office?"Logan was surprised to see my attitude. He frowned, then said calmly, "I was going to continue the problem here, but then I saw Thea
