All Chapters of A Perfect Distraction: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Hey, Karrie. I hope everything is set for tonight." Scarlet's chirpy voice came through the other line of the phone. I let out a sigh before dropping myself on the bed. My mind was constantly playing tricks with me. At some point, I was pretty sure our plan will work out and I'll be able to gather as much information possible from Olivier about my parent's murder. But right now, I'm not having that much confidence to go on with this plan."I don't know," I mumbled in a strained voice."What do you mean ‘you don't know'?" Scarlet asked. I could hear her rummaging through something from the other side. Guess she is getting ready for the ball whereas I'm still in a dilemma. I took a shaky breath and clenched my eyes tightly before opening."I don't know whether I can do this, Scar. What if our plan doesn't work? I can't risk yours and Tyler's life because of me." I said as my eyesight became blurry. I held my breath as the other line went silent for a moment

Logan's POV:Everything was going as planned. Attending the ball, talking business, and waiting until the ball ends so that I can go back to my love and cuddle to sleep. This night would have been perfect with Lia as my date instead of Zara.  I know my girl always dreamed of attending a ball like this, but for me, her safety is first. And this place isn't safe for her because of one certain person - Olivier.I'm also aware of the fact that she is angry with me, so I called her earlier before going to the ball. At first, she sounded fine and good, as if we didn't even fight. But eventually, she got it and tried to put on a tough facade. I felt something was off when I called her. I just couldn't figure it out. She seemed awfully fine that I was going to the ball without her. Considering her nature, I thought she would make it too hard for me. She can be pretty hard-headed at times. Even after coming to the ball, I had this nagging sensation to call

 It has been four days since Logan left for the business meeting. It may sound corny, but I’m already so dead inside without him. I miss him so much. I miss his muscular arms around me, those ocean blue eyes that would look at me ever so lovingly. I feel empty without him. The thought of him being miles away makes me down and depressed. I know I might be overreacting as he’s going to be back soon, but the past days without him were so melancholic and horrible.We talk every day, but it isn’t enough. Nothing is enough when he’s miles away from me. His voice just won’t make me feel complete again as his presence did. Never have I ever wanted something so much except him. I’m horrified at the realization that I’m starting to depend on Logan for everything.I was laying on my bed, lost in my world of thoughts. Mainly revolving around Logan. My phone started to vibrate and a smile spread on my face as the fami

‘Is he serious now?'My mouth fell open in disbelief and surprise, but I slowly closed it. I pursed my lips together and glared at the back of Logan's head as he spoke with his personal assistant, I presume. He exchanged a few more words with her before turning around to face me. He frowned as he saw me, and my glare intensified."Logan Zachary Watson, you have 10 seconds to explain why I see eight bodyguards instead of one," I said displeased, pointing at them who were standing a few distances away, all wearing an emotionless face and dressed in black clothing including William."I don't want to take any chances.""That's not an answer," I exclaimed, throwing my hands in the air and he let out an exasperated sigh."We talked about this on the way, Lia.""Yeah we talked, but you didn't mention you hired freaking eight guards. Two guards are understandable, but this...""Lia, this is for your safety. I

“Happy Birthday Karrie!, happy birthday to you...happy-”“Ughh” I groaned loudly and threw a pillow at the object from where the annoying sound was coming.“Whoa,” a familiar deep male voice chuckled.“Rise and shine, birthday girl.” the same annoying voice yelled. I realized the sound was coming from a phone.“Bug off, Scar” I yelled back and covered my head with a pillow, trying to embrace my sleep again. “I’ll wake her up and call you guys later”. After a few seconds, something heavy landed on top of me emitting an oomph from my lips and snatched the pillow from my hand. I let out a loud groan and opened an eye to see Logan grinning down at me, his muscular arms on either side of my head supporting half of his body weight. “5 more minutes, please?” I pleaded, wanting to go back to sleep again. He chuckled and pr
