I heard Ashton ask in the ear connection and just as I was about to raise her to a standing position she pushed me angrily and stood up."Are you blind !!" She said immediately as she adjusted her clothes.Okay Rude !!Immediately she stood to face me , I got a good look of her face and my mind raced back to the day Olivia introduced me to her and how she embarrassed me by almost not taking my handshake.I doubt she remembers who I am , people like this do shit to people and never ever remember again , just like her father!.It's a good thing she doesn't remember me though.It's a pity that someone as pretty and physically perfect as she is, is a spoilt brat.My eyes involuntarily moved to her wrist again

I asked."I'm just saying " she replied as she slowly took her seat on the chair"In whatever you do, just remember all of us here ""We're at your mercy," she said and I nodded."But I won't allow her to talk me down " I added."Just make sure you don't get fired " she replied."I'll think about it " I whispered."You can go in the car" "There's no need, I'll just go with an Uber," I said and brought out my phone to order.I ordered the Uber and within a few minutes, the driver beeped me that he was already around."I'll call in the evening, to tell you how our plans will go ""They plan to attack Tuesday night, it's

Logan said to her yesterday "That's exactly what it makes you!!" She replied angrily."With all due respect, I know my worth ma'am and I won't hesitate to leave if you don't accord me that respect!"

Logan's POV"Auntie, you guys have to see this!" We heard Phoebe say as she rushed down the stairs to us with her phone and we turned to look at her.Immediately she got to us, I took the phone from her hands and my eyes nearly popped out of its socket.It was an Article on a dead body that had been found in the forest and my name was listed as a suspect!."How is this possible?!" Auntie Katie asked as she looked up at me."I have no idea!" I replied immediately in more shock than any of them could be in.Suddenly a knock came on the door and we all turned towards the entrance. The knock on the door became more persistent, and Auntie Katie hurriedly went to answer it. I could feel my heart beating faster as I tried to process what was happening.When Auntie Katie opened the door, two police officers stood before us, their stern expressions making my anxiety levels rise even higher."Logan Rivera?" one of the officers said, looking straight at me.I nodded, unable to find my voice."

Brett and Ashton exchanged uncomfortable glances, while auntie Katie put a comforting hand on Ariana's shoulder."Mia!"

Ariana's POV"Where are we going?!" I asked mom as she stepped on the accelerator and increased her speed."I have no idea" she whispered tears streaming down her face."Mom" I whispered moving closer to her ."Ariana!" She called softly"I'm driving that's alright, I think I just want this place to be quiet" she whispered quietly her eyes on the road and I nodded in reply as I rested back on my seat.As we drove further away from our home, the silence in the car became more deafening. I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of betrayal and hurt. Dad has hurt us, me especially in many ways unimaginable!. The man I thought I knew, trusted, and loved had shattered my perception of him into a million pieces.My mind raced with questions, but I couldn't bring myself to voice them out loud. Instead, I sat there in silence, watching the world pass us by, lost in my own thoughts.Mom's hands were tightly gripped on the steering wheel, and I could see the tears that she was trying to hold back.
