The billionaire who stole my heart Chapter twelve
I still stood there, gasping for breath after that asshole’s attempt to strangle me, my heart racing with a mix of fear and rage.Mouths in the room had started mummering as the hefty hands of the security guards restrained Logan,who was still fumming with rage. Why the anger? I thought.Mo rushed to my side, her eyes wide with concern.“Are you alright?” She asked, trembling slightly. I nodded, trying to keep my breathing to be on point.“I think I'm okay, just shaken up.” I replied, my voice hoarse.Francesca, was looking pale and shaken herself, fiddling with her phone… What was she doing?Within minutes, uniformed officers arrived at the scene, their presence adding to the the gravity of the situation. The police immediately questioning everyone involved, gathering statements.It was my turn now…to give my side of the story. I recounted my version of the scene, explaining I was there for an interview with the dick head,,Logan, directed by Mason.Then he flamed up, claiming I assa

“Officer, she’s lying,” Francesca said at the top of her voice as she reached out to the police officer questioning me. What the hell did she mean by “I was lying”?I was saying the facts, I said exactly what had happened. I looked at her, it was more of a glare actually, almost seeing through.I shifted my gaze to the police questioning me. Come to think of it, this wasn’t a matter to be handled by the police. So why the hell was this happening? Fine, I knew I was wrong to have broken the vase, but he caused it. He ignored me and that was the only way I got his attention.I tucked my hair behind my ear as I saw Logan on a phone call. It seemed pretty serious. Our eyes suddenly met as I removed it, shifting my focus back to the police officer. I swallowed deeply,“officer, don’t listen to this girl. The exact thing I had told you was what happened, don’t listen to her.”“Why the lies, Raleigh? You did. What do I stand to by bearing false witness against you? I’m all ears, tell me.”I

Raleigh’s POVA smile curled against my lips. Oh, my goodness. He’d better be joking. My heart beamed with joy as I heard those words: “I’ll pay” It couldn’t be true.I ran as swift as my leg could carry, to him. I hid the joy in me.“Are you sure about this?” I asked, looking straight into his eyes. I needed to be sure. I couldn’t just let him take my burdens just because we were friends. He bent towards me, his foreheads almost colliding,“Ask me again and I’ll change my mind.” He said in a low voice and we chuckled. Could I have asked for a better friend than this? A friend who would be there in your highs and lows. I took Mo’s hand in mine, squeezing it.“Officer, no need to make matters worse. Raleigh is not going anywhere with you. I’ll make the payment to my friend.” Mason said, a hand in his pocket, and eyes targeted at the cop.It seemed the cop wanted to be reluctant, but stopped. He knew who was making that offer. He knew it was no random guy.It was a man with the cash tha

Logan’s POVShe should be glad I let things slide. That has never happened, but I did that today. If it were another day, I’d sent her right behind bars.Hey, don’t get me wrong. I just can't stand her …I can swear no one can tolerate her like I do.She’s frustrating and gets on my nerves and I wonder how she manages to do that. I’ve mastered the technique of not letting anything anyone does get to me, but, she somehow manages to get through.I wonder how she does that. Congratulations to me, nine months of going monk mode had just been a waste.I robbed my temples. I wish she knew how invaluable that vase she smashed was. Damn, it. I couldn’t handle much anymore. To crown it all, Mason has got her back.I needed a leave. From everything. From work, from friends, from life…Everything. I couldn’t take it anymore. Not anymore. I was back at work after the ruined gathering was over.I couldn’t sit there, watching everything in my life crumble. And I meant those words I said to her by t

Raleigh povThose words hung to me like a chain around my neck or even a lump in my throat. His words were cold and emotionless, not caring if I felt anything from the way he spoke.I felt like I was some sort of bitch he was talking to. It was my fault. I had brought down my ego and thought it would be a good idea to apologize and perhaps he’d accept my apology.But obviously, this wasn’t the case. It was way far from it.Humiliated, trashed, and looked down on. Damn it, Raleigh. You caused this disrespect in the first place. You should have just stayed back home. I swallowed deep; trying as hard as I could not to let his words get to me. I needed to switch to my stone heart.I couldn’t afford to be moved by someone like him.Never. His words meant nothing. It’d be better if I dropped the value to the floor and just heard the words but did not listen to them.Yeah, that was the best thing to do. Something in me whispered in me to leave and never come back here. I knew it was that littl

RALEIGH'S POV’“Who do you think sent the message?” Mason asked. I racked my head through, but no one I could think of. I was always on the good side of everybody’s life.At least for the one I’m sure of. Who would want to harm me?“I don’t know,” I said.“Raleigh has no enemy as far as I know. She’s a good person. Perhaps this was not directed at you. It could be spam or it was sent to you mistakenly.” “What do you mean?”“What I mean is that whosoever sent it might have made a mistake sending it to you. It might have been directed to another person, but it came to you.” She expatiated. OH, yes. I got her now. No one would want to hurt me because I’ve done nothing wrong.I nodded. “You think so right?”“Yeah…no need to stress things.”“But be careful. Don’t put your guard down. Remain vigilant about everything and everyone around you. If you notice any sues [vicious activities, you can report it to the police.” He was right.The message might not have been a mistake.“Guys, i think

Logan's Pov“I’m not fucking interested if you had a fight with her or not. How the fuck does that affect my life? To crown it all, Mason, these are low lives…they’re definitely after your money. How hard is that for you to comprehend?” I said.I was indeed furious for me to speak to my own best friend that way. Sometimes, he behaves gullible and sometimes makes me wonder if he uses his brain or not. “You’ve got to calm down, Logan. It isn’t that complicated as you make it to be. You’ve been doing the talking since, it’s my turn.” I let out a heavy sigh, trying to get myself to understand his perspective here. To me, everything was glaring that the girl was a low life after his money.“I’m all ears.”“Thank you.” He said as I rolled my eyes.He had better said something reasonable and convincing, or else, this would be our third world war.“Can you just make your point?”“Well, I think I’m the one at fault here. And to clarify things, this girl is not a gold-digger.”“How sure are
The billionaire who stole my heart chapter 19
Raleigh’s POVI wrapped her up in my hands. Yeah, I knew Mo to be a crybaby especially when something like this happens – heartbreak from a guy. I heard strictly warned against getting too intimate with anybody just the moment you met someone and this was what she always did – (giving too much of herself) that led guys to break their hearts. And now, it happened again.I never knew Mason could be an asshole. So he never considered her his girlfriend when they were kissing, cuddling, having sex every two seconds, and the rest of that bullshit.I was disappointed. I expected something better from him. That’s why asking the right questions like “What exactly are we doing? What do you see me as?” is important to avoid unnecessary and stupid heartbreak.“Mason,” I growled.“I don’t want to hear his name.” Mo sniffed, pulling more of me into her.“You know you caused all these, Mo. I warned you when you were going into this.”“Have you ever loved someone?” she released herself from me, with

Logan’s POVIt had been a week of chaos and unanswered questions, and the city streets offered the only reprieve I could find. Driving through the bustling nightlife in my Benz, I tried to clear my mind. The soft hum of the engine was soothing, but no amount of speed could quiet the storm of thoughts raging inside me. Francesca’s name lingered like a ghost in my head, her voice from our last conversation echoing in my ears.The woman was a master of manipulation, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that she had her fingerprints all over the mess between Leigh and me. Every time I thought I’d left Francesca in the past, she found a way to creep back into my life. And now, with Leigh in the picture, it felt deliberate—like she was trying to dismantle everything I cared about.The streets were alive with energy: neon signs flickered, couples walked arm in arm, and laughter spilled ou

Leigh’s POVI sat on the couch, legs folded under me, staring at the wall like it held all the answers I needed. My head felt heavy, and my chest even more so. Everything was going wrong. The whispers at work, the photos online, the endless judgment. It all pressed down on me like a weight I couldn’t carry anymore.Mo walked into the room, a steaming cup of tea in her hand. She placed it gently on the table in front of me and sat down beside me.“You’ve been sitting there all day,” she said softly, like she was afraid her words might shatter me.I shrugged, still staring at the wall. “What else am I supposed to do, Mo? Pretend everything’s fine? Because it’s not. My life’s falling apart.”Mo reached over and put a hand on my shoulder. “Leigh, I know it feels like that right now, but this isn’t the end. You’ll get through this.”I turned to her, my eyes stinging with unshed tears. “How, Mo? How am I supposed to get through this? Everywhere I turn, people are talking about me. At work,

Logan’s POVThe knock on my office door was sharp and impatient. Before I could answer, the door opened, and Mr. Grayson stepped in. His face was red, and his jaw was tight. I knew immediately this wasn’t going to be a friendly visit.“Logan,” he said, slamming the door behind him. “We need to talk. Now.”“Good morning to you too, Mr. Grayson,” I said, forcing a calm tone. I gestured to the chair across from me. “Please, have a seat.”“I won’t be sitting,” he snapped, his voice cold. “Explain this nonsense!”He threw a newspaper onto my desk. I didn’t need to look at it to know what it was about. The headline blared something ridiculous about me being caught with a “secret lover.” The photo of Leigh and me was front and center.I sighed, l
The billionaire who stole my heart Chapter 45
Logan’s POVI stared at the headlines on my phone, my stomach twisting. The photo of Leigh and me was everywhere. The media was having a field day, spinning the narrative as if we were more than an interviewer and her subject. The words burned into my eyes: “Logan Hunt and Mysterious Woman: Secret Affair Exposed?”This wasn’t just unfair—it was cruel. Leigh didn’t ask for this, and now her career might be at risk. All because she had the misfortune of crossing paths with me.I tossed my phone onto the desk and rubbed my temples. My mind raced, trying to figure out who would stoop this low. Only one name stood out. Francesca.She always had a knack for stirring trouble. Ever since we broke up, she’d been bitter, finding ways to remind me she could still cause chaos in my life. I had no proof it was her, but my gut told me she was involved.

Leigh’s POVI kept staring at the comments, my hands shaking. Who would take such a private moment and share it with the world? My stomach twisted as I scrolled through the comments. People were calling me names, questioning my character. Some said I was using Logan for money, others thought I was unfit for my job.I couldn’t stay in the office and wait for anything, I needed to talk to Logan.I got dressed quickly, my heart racing. I just grabbed my bag and headed out the door.The ride to Logan’s office felt like forever. My thoughts were loud, questions circling in my mind. How could he let this happen? Why didn’t he warn me?When I got to his office, I stormed past the receptionist. She tried to stop me, but I wasn’t in the mood. “I need to see Logan,” I said, my voice sharp.She stood up, looking worried. “Ma’am, he’s in a meeting.”“I don’t care,” I snapped, walking straight to his door and pushing it open.Logan was sitting at the head of a long table, his board members around
The billionaire who stole my heart chapter 43
Logan’s POVThe morning had started out normal, calm. I was just getting ready to head into the office when my phone buzzed. I ignored it, thinking it was probably just a random email or reminder, but then it buzzed again, then again, and again. That was strange.When I finally picked it up, my screen was flooded with notifications—texts, emails, missed calls. I blinked, trying to process what was going on. My heart picked up a bit. Something felt off, but I couldn’t tell what it was yet.I decided to open one of the news alerts to see what was happening. And then I saw it. Right there, on the front page of a popular news site, was a picture of me… and Leigh. We were close, her face right up to mine, and my hand was wrapped around her waist. It was unmistakable; we were kissing. It was the kind of photo that left no room for guessing.For a second, I couldn’t even move. I just stared at the screen, trying to process what I was looking at. How? How could this picture be out there? I di

Leigh’s POVI sat down, trying to steady my breath, but then I saw him. Mikel. He was standing by the coffee machine, acting casual, as if the last few days hadn’t happened, as if the tension in the office wasn’t because of him. The same smug look I had come to know so well was still plastered on his face, and his eyes flicked to me, almost daring me to make a move.I wasn’t going to let him win. Not today.The buzz of the office seemed to drown out everything around me, the whispers becoming more audible. It felt like the whole room was waiting for something to happen, and I wasn’t about to give them the satisfaction of seeing me crumble.I stood up abruptly, not giving myself time to second-guess. I walked toward him, my steps firm, my mind set. My heart was pounding in my chest as I approached, but I pushed everything down. There was no time for fear. No time for weakness.When I was just behind him, I stopped. The weight of the tension in the air was palpable, almost suffocating,

Leigh's POVEverything felt wrong.I sat on my bed, staring at my phone, feeling like the world was too heavy. It was like a big dark cloud was hanging over me, and no matter what I did, I couldn’t shake it away. I didn’t want to think anymore, but the thoughts kept coming, swirling around in my head. I felt like there was no way out, like everything I had tried so hard for was just slipping through my fingers.Just then, my phone buzzed loudly, making me jump. I picked it up, my hands shaking as I looked at the name on the screen. It was Mikel. My heart sank deeper. I knew him well—he is someone who makes things hard for me. He’d say rude things, give me mean looks, and laugh when I made a mistake. But this felt different. I didn’t want to answer, but I knew I had to.I held my breath and pressed the answer button. “Hello?” My voice sounded small, like I was a tiny bug he could squish.Mikel’s

Logan’s POVI was sitting at my desk, thinking about work. Mason, came in with a big smile on his face. He looked excited, and I couldn’t help but smile back.“Hey, Logan!” Mason said. “You won’t believe what I just heard!”“What’s up?” I asked, curious.“We have a new investor, remember? I just got off the phone with him. He loves what we’re doing!” Mason said, his eyes shining with excitement.“Really?” I said, sitting up straighter. “That’s great news! What did he say?”Mason leaned closer, his voice low. “He thinks our idea is going to make a lot of money. He believes in us, man!”I felt a rush of happiness. It was nice to know that someone believed in our work. “This is awesome! What does this mean for us?”“It means we can grow our business faster. We can hire more people and maybe even make our product even better,” Mason explained, bouncing a little in his seat.I thought about it for a moment. “Wow, that sounds amazing! I really want to make this work. We’ve worked so hard.”“
