Alone in the car, Alessia’s brows knitted, an uneasy feeling creeping over her.

She hated exploiting people, and she was determined not to let Logan think she was just after his riches.

His earlier snide remark about her being poor but ambitious had hit a nerve, and she hadn’t expected such a strong reaction.

Sitting in the car for a moment, she took a deep breath.

Then, raindrops started drumming on the windshield, and anxiety seeped in.

With a sigh, she decided to take action.

‘Logan, it’s raining. Can you please come back?’ she called out, but Logan remained unresponsive as the rain intensified.

Getting out of the car, Alessia was now soaked, her concern mounting.

Unable to spot Logan, she pulled out her phone, using its flashlight to pierce through the rain.

To her shock, she found him about eight meters behind the car, kneeling as if injured.

Her heart clenched, and she darted towards him. ‘Logan?’

The heavy rain made it challenging for her to see, water stinging her eyes.

    Logan leaned back in his seat, his gaze fixed on Alessia as she drove.Thoughts of the recent events raced through his mind, and his gaze grew more profound.Meanwhile, Terence swiftly contacted the hospital, arranging for an emergency bed and an expert to stand by in the emergency centre.He was visibly anxious, his mind racing.The bodyguards and the doctor gathered at the entrance of the emergency centre.‘They’re here!’ one of the bodyguards suddenly shouted, ‘It’s the president’s car!’Amidst the pouring rain, Alessia skilfully manoeuvred the car into the emergency centre parking lot, although every space was occupied.Then, she spotted an ambulance pulling out with sirens blaring.Her eyes lit up, and she floored the accelerator, the car’s engine roaring.She swiftly approached an empty parking space and slammed on the brakes.Logan was nearly launched from his seat, and when he finally regained his composure, he looked at Alessia in amazement.She’d parked in the ambulance zone

    ‘I need to call my sister,’ Alessia sighed. ‘I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t be going home tonight.’‘Why don’t you call her after our conditions have stabilized?’ Logan suggested.‘Okay.’Alessia took out her phone and texted her sister.[Alessia]: Veronica, I don’t think I can make it home tonight. I have some stuff to do.In less than a minute, Veronica replied with a smiling emoji.[Veronica]: Sis, don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything.[Alessia]: Thanks, V. Tell Milo I’m sorry.[Veronica]: No prob. Have fun!Alessia put her phone down and felt a deep sense of relief.She wouldn’t know what to do without Veronica in her life.‘I’m going to take a nap. Wake me when it’s time for the blood draw,’ she said, her eyelids heavy.She was exhausted and just wanted to sleep.Logan nodded. ‘Rest well.’Without another word, Alessia closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep within seconds.Half an hour later, a nurse entered the room.Seeing Alessia asleep, she was surprised. ‘She’s not s

    Logan’s concern was immediate, and he sat upright, scanning her from head to toe. ‘How are you feeling? Short of breath?’Alessia, her breath still shaky, replied, ‘Yes, I’m breathless, and it’s like I’m in a panic mode. Thanks to you.’Alessia thought her breathlessness was a result of his passionate kiss.‘Doctor!’ Logan’s voice rang out, and there was instant commotion at the door.Terence’s voice followed, ‘Sir, I’ve called for the doctor.’Logan had wasted no time, summoning a doctor while in the middle of their passionate moment.‘Logan, why do I feel like I can’t breathe?’ Alessia’s heart raced on, and there was no relief.Hearing her words, Logan grew even more anxious.‘Why hasn’t the doctor arrived yet?’ he demanded.‘He’s here.’ Terence held the door open.The doctor entered the room, and Logan instructed him firmly, ‘Hurry, take a look at her.’‘Good, you are awake,’ The doctor addressed Alessia. ‘How are you feeling?’Alessia admitted, ‘My heart’s racing, and it’s getting

    Alessia shook her head, her expression tender. ‘There’s no need for that. I’m feeling much better now. What happened earlier was just a minor scare.’‘You fell asleep, and no one could wake you up,’ Logan’s voice was tinged with the fear he felt, a fear he couldn’t express in words.Alessia offered reassurance. ‘No, it’s just that I was too sleepy. The doctor said I’m fine now. Don’t worry. I truly feel much better.’Logan’s gaze held gratitude, but he remained cautious. ‘You do look better, but that doesn’t mean you’re fully recovered and safe.’Alessia countered, ‘But I think the best way to conserve energy now is to sleep.’Still, Logan hesitated, his protective nature refusing to wane.Alessia patted the space beside her, her smile warm. ‘Come on, if you’re still concerned, let’s lie down and sleep together.’Logan’s eyes lit up at the suggestion. ‘You’re right.’He removed his shoes and settled beside Alessia.She grinned, feeling the warmth of their closeness. ‘That’s better.’A

    Heath, impeccably dressed, offered her a ride.Veronica accepted without hesitation, and they made their way to the hospital.Tension hung in the air as they entered the hospital ward.Veronica led, Heath followed, and they reached the ward’s entrance.The bodyguards were unfamiliar with Veronica.Now it was Alex guarding the door.He halted Veronica, addressing Heath, ‘Mr Carpenter, what brings you here?’Heath asked, ‘Where’s your boss?’‘He’s inside.’Veronica, in a stern voice, declared, ‘I want to go in.’With politeness, Alex asked, ‘May I ask who you are?’Heath explained, ‘This is Miss Jansen’s sister. Can we go in?’Alex maintained professionalism. ‘I’ll check with the boss. Please wait.’A knock on the door elicited a response from inside, ‘Come in.’Logan, sitting at the edge of Alessia’s bed, frowned as Veronica rushed in.She didn’t hesitate to voice her irritation, giving him a pointed look before turning to Alessia. ‘Sis!’Veronica’s gaze landed on Alessia in the hospit

    Deep down, Veronica knew Alessia had done all this just because Logan was Milo’s biological father.She wouldn’t stand by and watch Logan lose his life before Milo had a chance to get to know him.Of course, there was always the possibility that Alessia had already fallen in love with Logan.Alessia straightened her shoulders.‘This was my choice,’ she said firmly.Veronica could not say anything more at this moment.She could only hold Alessia in her arms and burst into tears.This situation surprised Logan and Heath.Something was amiss, and it seemed like there were deeper meanings to what they’d just heard.Alessia wiped her sister’s tears away, looked at her watch, and said, ‘Veronica, it’s past four o’clock now. I’m fine, but I can’t go back today. You’ll have to go home.’Veronica understood what Alessia didn’t say—go home and take care of Milo.She nodded.***‘Aunt Veronica, you don’t look very well.

    The little fellow had a sharp mind and wasn’t one to give away information easily.He regarded Heath with suspicion and questioned, ‘Why are you asking me this? You’re wearing a fake uniform, aren’t you? Are you a real policeman, or are you a fraud?’Heath found himself amused by the child’s inquisitiveness and replied, ‘Kid, you should answer my question first.’Milo remained cautious and said, ‘My mommy is with my father. I’m here with my aunt. Does that answer your question?’Heath chuckled. ‘Alright.’Milo, not one to let him off the hook, urged, ‘It’s your turn, then. I asked you a question, but you haven’t answered.’Heath relented, ‘I’m a real policeman. This police uniform is real. I’m not a fraud, okay?’Milo, with a mischievous glint in his eye, probed further, ‘Why are you wearing your police uniform? Are you on duty?’Heath explained patiently, ‘Off duty. I didn’t have time to change out of it. I had a meeting today.’But Milo wasn’t easily convinced and brought up a recen

    Alessia pouted and said, ‘I mean, who knows? You might really have a child out there and have no idea about it.’‘What’s wrong with you?’ Logan chuckled and asked. ‘Don’t take it seriously; I was just fooling around. Heath spotted a child who looked like me, and I just thought of asking you the question. That’s it.’‘Heath saw a child who looked like you?’ Alessia’s heart raced again.Could it be Milo?‘Where?’ She pressed for more information.‘I don’t know. He’s always cruising around town in that car of his,’ Logan replied. ‘Well, this has nothing to do with me. It has nothing to do with you either. Okay?’Alessia bit her lip, her thoughts whirling with possibilities.If Milo had been seen by Heath, it could mean that their secret was at risk.Glancing at Alessia’s perplexed look, Logan frowned and asked, ‘What are you thinking about?’She snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head, ‘Nothing. I was just thinking what if...’‘What if what?’‘What if you really have a child?’‘Th

    With the briefcase in hand, Logan left the office and got in his car.He did not involve Terence; the meeting could be dangerous.Besides, he had backup.Logan raced through the city streets, weaving through traffic with a desperate determination.The clock was ticking, and the warehouse loomed ahead like a dark, ominous secret.As he approached the entrance, the flickering neon lights buzzed overhead, casting eerie shadows on the crumbling walls.Logan stepped into the darkness, the echoes of his footsteps the only sound in the desolate space.A figure emerged from the shadows, wearing a hooded jacket to conceal their identity.Logan’s pulse quickened, his senses on high alert.‘I brought the money, now show me Sirena,’ he demanded, his voice steady but edged with a simmering rage.The figure chuckled, the sound echoing eerily through the cavernous space. ‘Impatient, aren’t we?’He pulled out a phone from his pocket.With a swift motion, he tapped the screen, and a small screen on th

    Logan’s office at Wilde Enterprises was a haven of order in contrast to the chaos unravelling in his personal life.The sterile hum of fluorescent lights bathed the room as he sifted through paperwork, attempting to find solace in the routine of his professional responsibilities.His phone buzzed, the screen lighting up with Heath’s name.Logan’s heart skipped a beat as he answered the call, the outside world fading away as he focused on the voice at the other end.‘Heath,’ Logan greeted, his tone carrying the weight of worry.‘We found her,’ Heath’s voice crackled through the phone. ‘She was at the BuzzBeat office. Got into a bit of a scuffle with Alessia.’Logan’s temples throbbed in response, the news striking him like a physical blow. ‘Alessia? Is she okay?’There was a pause on the line, and Logan could almost feel the hesitation in Heath’s response. ‘According to the colleague who filed the police report, she’s got a couple of scratches, but otherwise, she’s fine.’Relief washed

    The room was cloaked in a muted glow from the bedside lamp, casting a warm light on the framed photographs that adorned the walls.Sirena moved silently, her eyes scanning each corner of her parents’ room as she began the meticulous search for anything of value.Ralph was still in intensive care, which meant Naomi wouldn’t leave his side, giving Sirena the time she needed for a thorough search.Her fingers brushed against the cool surface of a polished wooden dresser, adorned with small trinkets that echoed the laughter of her childhood.A porcelain figurine, a relic from a family vacation, stood alongside a faded picture of her parents and a much younger Sirena.The memories were bittersweet, a reminder of the life she had left behind.As Sirena opened drawers with deliberate care, the soft rustling of papers mixed with the creak of aged furniture.In one drawer, she found a stack of handwritten letters tied together with a ribbon.Memories of birthday wishes, expressions of love, an

    The Veridian airport bustled with a kinetic energy that only a major transport hub could exude.Travellers weaved through the expansive terminal, navigating a sea of bustling crowds and rolling luggage.The air hummed with the constant murmur of announcements, the clatter of footsteps, and the intermittent symphony of departure gates chiming to life.Alessia, her eyes scanning the digital departure board, stood amidst the organized chaos.The Veridian airport, a sprawling architectural marvel, boasted high ceilings adorned with sleek modern designs.Concourse shops beckoned with an array of luxury goods, and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air from the bustling cafes.It had been a long time since she flew—juggling a job and raising two kids hadn’t left a lot of time for the luxury of flying.‘Hey, I thought that was you.’ Someone tapped her on the shoulder.Alessia, startled, turned around to find Vince, a smile playing on his lips.‘Vince, what are you doing he

    Naomi scoffed, bitterness lacing her tone. ‘Make things right? Can you bring back the peace we had before you barged in with your promises and complications?’Logan shook his head. ‘I can’t change the past, Naomi, but I can help with the present. Let me take care of Ralph’s medical bills. It’s the least I can do.’Her expression hardened, and she retorted, ‘Money won’t fix the damage you’ve caused. Sirena is missing, Ralph’s heart is failing, and our lives are in shambles. Don’t pretend you can fix it with a cheque.’Her words were still ringing in his head hours later.Logan stood on the roof, smoking, lost in thought, until his phone rang with an urgency that cut through the air like a serrated blade.He glanced at the caller ID, and a sinking feeling gripped his stomach as he answered.‘Logan, what the hell is going on?’ Albert’s voice, usually a bastion of calm, resonated with a furious edge. ‘Alessia called me, all cold and distant, calling me Mr Wilde instead of Grandpa.

    ‘Ralph! Naomi, call an ambulance!’ Logan’s urgency cut through the stunned silence, and Naomi, her face pale with shock, fumbled for her phone.Panic swirled in the room as Ralph clutched his chest, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.He toppled backwards.‘Ralph!’ Logan caught the old man in time.Within moments, the wail of an ambulance echoed through the quiet neighbourhood.Naomi and Logan hurriedly helped Ralph onto a stretcher, his face strained with agony.The ambulance doors slammed shut, trapping the trio in a suffocating bubble of uncertainty.The ambulance tore through the city’s arteries, its siren piercing.Inside, the confined space thrummed with urgency.Naomi clung to the edge of her seat, her eyes unblinking as she watched the paramedics work on her husband.Ralph lay supine on the stretcher—his heart just stopped.The heart monitor emitted a relentless warning beep.Naomi’s hands trembled as she tried to steady herself, the medical jargon exchanged by the paramed

    Naomi stirred the simmering chicken soup, the aroma filling the kitchen with warmth.She glanced at Ralph, who was grabbing his keys.‘Ready to head to the hospital?’ he asked.‘Absolutely,’ Naomi replied, wiping her hands on her apron. ‘Hand me the thermos.’They were only allowed to visit Sirena once each day, the visit lasting no longer than half an hour.The doctor explained that the restricted visits were important to establish routine in Sirena’s life.As they prepared to leave, they heard a knock on the door.Surprised, they exchanged a puzzled glance before opening the door.Standing on their doorstep was Logan. ‘Can we talk?’Naomi and Ralph exchanged a wary look but nodded, allowing him inside.Logan took a deep breath, eyeing them both. ‘I’m sure you know why I’m here. I need Sirena to sign those divorce papers.’It had been almost three days since Sirena’s hospitalisation, and Logan had waited long enough.Naomi’s lips trembled. ‘Logan, we can’t believe you’ve moved on so
