Chapter 21

Ava’s POVThe warmth in my body was overwhelming, an electric buzz I couldn’t shake. My steps faltered as Oliver’s hand tightened around my arm, his voice blending into the haze around me.“Ava, stay with me,” he urged, his tone edged with something close to panic.I blinked up at him, trying to focus. “What… what’s happening?”Before he could answer, another voice cut through the noise—a voice as cold and sharp as a blade.“Is there a problem here?”I turned, swaying slightly, to see Logan. He was standing a few feet away, his tall frame commanding attention even in the crowded ballroom. His dark suit seemed to absorb the light, and his piercing gaze flickered between me and Oliver.Logan’s presence sent a ripple through the room. People instinctively stepped aside, whispering in hushed tones, but his focus remained locked on us.Oliver stiffened, his face draining of color. For the first time, I saw fear in his eyes.“No problem,” Oliver said quickly, his grip on me loosening. “She’

Chapter 22

Ava’s POVThe evening air hung thick with anticipation, the dim light casting soft shadows across my face. Logan stepped closer, his movements unhurried, like a predator sizing up its prey, though his expression held nothing but warmth. “You don’t have to be nervous,” he said, reaching out to gently brush a stray strand of hair behind my ear. I swallowed hard, my heart pounding as his fingers lingered, his touch sending a shiver down my spine. “It was my first time. I don’t want to mess this up.”Logan’s lips curled into a knowing smile as he cupped my cheek, his thumb brushing gently against my flushed skin. “Ava, trust me, I’m very good at taking the lead.”My nerves began to melt away as Logan’s confidence enveloped me like a warm blanket. He kissed me passionately as he guided me to the bed. When his hands touched my breast they were warm, and he began to touch my soft skin. This was just the first session and his hands were confident, as his fingertips steadied my shoulder to u

Chapter 23

Ava’s POVAfter that night, Logan became a regular fixture at the coffee shop where I worked. He would sit at a corner table, watching me with a soft smile as I bustled around, taking orders and making drinks. His presence was both comforting and exhilarating, and I often found myself blushing under his gaze."You're doing great, Ava," he would say, his eyes twinkling with amusement whenever he caught me looking flustered."Thanks, Logan," I would reply, my cheeks turning even redder. His support meant the world to me, and I cherished every moment we spent together.Logan was there again, sitting at his usual table by the window. He was pretending to read something on his phone, but I could feel his gaze on me, as steady and warm as the late afternoon sun streaming through the glass.Every time I glanced his way, his lips curled into that easy, knowing smile that made my heart stutter. It was impossible to focus when he was around, but I secretly loved the way he watched me. Sometime

Chapter 24

Ava’s POVThe rain tapped against the window like a persistent melody, filling the quiet space between us. Logan was sitting across from me, his fingers idly tracing the rim of his coffee cup. His demeanor was calm, as always, but there was an edge of curiosity in his gaze—one I couldn’t ignore.I took a deep breath. “Logan, I need your help with something.”He looked up from his coffee, curiosity flickering in his eyes. “What kind of help?”“I need to find someone,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper. “Can you help me find Oliver? He's disappeared.”For a moment, Logan didn’t react. Then he leaned back in his chair, the faintest smile tugging at his lips. “Oliver, huh?”I nodded, unsure of what to expect. Logan always seemed like the kind of person who could find anyone, but the thought of asking him felt daunting.“You’re asking the wrong guy,” he said, shrugging. Logan's expression remained calm, but there was a slight tension in his jaw. "Ava, I wish I could help, but I don't

Chapter 25

Ava’s POVAs we settled into our cozy corner, I could sense that something was weighing on Zara’s mind. She took a deep breath before speaking."Ava, I need to talk to you about Logan," Zara began, her tone serious.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What about him?"Zara glanced around, as if to ensure no one was listening. "I think you should stay away from him."Her words hit me like a cold splash of water. "Why would you say that?""Now that I work for his company, I've learned things about him... His identity is not as simple as you think," Zara explained, her eyes filled with concern.I leaned in, my curiosity piqued. "What do you mean?"Zara hesitated, clearly torn. "I can't tell you directly, Ava. But... I found out at the last party. Let's just say, he's not who he seems to be."Frustration bubbled up inside me. "Zara, you can't just drop a bombshell like that and not give me any details."She sighed, looking pained. "I wish I could tell you more, but I can't. Just trust me on

Chapter 26

Ava’s POVLogan's birthday arrived on a rainy day, the sky a brooding grey, as if it too was contemplating the events to come. I was at home, lazily flipping through a magazine, when there was a knock at the door. Opening it, I was greeted by a makeup team, laden with boxes and garment bags."Happy birthday to Logan," one of the makeup artists said with a grin. "He's sent us to make sure you're ready for the celebration tonight."I was taken aback, but I let them in. From one of the garment bags, they pulled out a stunning, floor-length dress in a deep, emerald green, accompanied by a pair of towering heels and a set of heavy, jewel-studded earrings. The ensemble screamed luxury, but as I looked in the mirror after they dressed me, I hardly recognized myself.While they worked on my makeup, I tried to make small requests. "Could we maybe go a bit lighter on the eyeshadow?""Oh, but Logan insisted on this look," one of the artists replied with a practiced smile. "You look absolutely st

Chapter 27

Ava’s POVAs Logan walked away, leaving me alone in the crowded party, a wave of confusion and frustration washed over me. My eyes scanned the room, desperate for something, anything, to ground me. That's when I saw Oliver, standing by the bar with a glass of champagne in hand, a mask of ease masking his true emotions.A surge of conflicting feelings hit me—anger, desperation, and a fierce need for answers. My heart pounded as I pushed through the throngs of partygoers, each step heavy with determination and uncertainty."Oliver," I called out, my voice trembling as it cut through the hum of conversation. "I need to talk to you about my father's death. I need to know the truth."Oliver turned, his expression shifting from surprise to a guarded look. "Ava, this isn't the right place," he began, but I cut him off, my voice rising above the background noise of the party.I took a deep breath, steeling myself. "No, Oliver. I've waited long enough. I need to know what really happened. Why

Chapter 28

Ava’s POVAs soon as I overheard Logan's conversation with his friends, a plan started to form in my mind. I needed to act quickly. I calmly left the balcony, keeping my emotions in check. Once out of sight, I tore a small portion of my skirt, enough to allow me to move freely if I needed to run later. I took out my phone and quickly booked a car, making sure it would arrive at the door in ten minutes.Oliver watched me, a puzzled look on his face. "What are you doing, Ava? What's going on?"I ignored him, focusing on the app as I secured the nearest car to pick me up at the front door in ten minutes. The adrenaline coursing through my veins kept me steady. With the car sorted, I turned my attention back to the party.I picked up a nearby teapot, still steaming with hot tea, and marched back to where Logan and his friends were gathered. Their laughter and conversation died down as I approached, their eyes widening in surprise.Without a word, I lifted the teapot and poured the scaldin

Chapter 29

Ava’s POVI woke up to the soft light of morning filtering through the curtains, but my chest felt heavy, as though the weight of the night still lingered. The dream clung to me like cobwebs, vivid and cruel, pulling me back into memories I’d tried so hard to bury.I sat up and began to prepare myself for the day ahead; we were here on a business trip, and I needed to focus on what came next.I found myself staring at the glossy brochure of Logan's company. Every page was like something out of a sci-fi movie: full house smart home systems that practically breathed for you, drones zipping through cityscapes delivering packages, and driverless cars gliding along sleek, futuristic highways. It was impressive—intimidating, even.Still, my gaze kept drifting to the section about their high-end supermarket chain. Compared to the other options, this was familiar territory. I had experience in supermarket chains, though nothing quite as glamorous as what Logan’s company seemed to offer. I wa

Chapter 30

Ava’s POVThe moment we stepped into the supermarket, I felt like I’d been dropped into a parallel universe. This wasn’t a grocery store—it was an experience, one that practically screamed exclusivity. Between the marble floors, perfectly curated displays, and a café in the center that could rival any upscale coffee shop, it was clear that this wasn’t the kind of place most people would shop for bread and milk.“Logan,” I said, my tone clipped as I turned to him, “the brochure didn’t mention this place required a membership card or that it catered exclusively to people with deep pockets. That’s a pretty significant omission.”Logan, ever the composed businessman, didn’t flinch. Instead, he nodded, the faintest hint of a smile tugging at his lips. “That’s an oversight on our part. I’ll make sure it’s corrected for future collaborations.”I smirked, though inside, I was rolling my eyes hard enough to strain something. “An oversight, huh?”“Absolutely,” he replied, completely unfazed. “A
