تسجيل الدخولLOGANI didn't know why I was telling Isabella about my mother. But for some reason, I felt it was necessary to let her know since she’d always wanted to find out. Watching my father push my mother down the stairs was so terrifying that I got traumatized after the incident. And my father? He never owns up to his actions. He twisted the narrative, made her fall look like an accident and even forced me to give false testimonies in front of her family members. I could no longer stay with a monster like him, I had to leave the house at a tender age and start my life. A life that didn't involve my father or his wealth. Everything I owned today was a result of my hard work, my dedication, and not my father's support as people had always believed. One of the reasons I didn’t want to get involved or take over his company was because of my hatred towards him. I wonder why he didn't have another child with his mistress because if he believed I was going to take over his damn company, he was
ISABELLALogan asked me to wait for him at the driveway where his car was parked, while he dropped his helmet in his locker. I clasped my hands behind me as I leaned on the car, waiting for him. My heart raced wildly in my chest and I took a deep breath to steady myself. I hope that whatever conversation I was about to have with Logan would end well. I sensed his presence before seeing him. My breath hitched before I even turned like my body already knew he was near. I turned around and my gaze locked with blue eyes staring back at me. When he got to the car, he opened the car door for me like he always did. And without a word, he moved to the other side of the car and slipped in. “What is it you wanted us to talk about?” I asked the moment I got into the car. “You go first.” He muttered gently. Although the coldness in his eyes was still there and I was used to that already. “I just wanted to apologise for what happened,” I whispered, avoiding his gaze. I wasn’t one to apologi
ISABELLAWhen I opened the door to see who was at my door, I found Nina standing with her arms crossed over her chest. “Are you okay?” She asked, her eyes frantically searching my body as though she was scared I was hurt. A sigh of relief escaped her lips after she must have confirmed that I was not injured. “I was worried because you were silent.” She whispered. A small smile made its way to my lips despite myself. It felt so strange to know that there was someone who was worried about me, about my safety. It made me realise I was truly no longer alone in the world anymore. “I’m okay, Nina…” I had barely completed my statement when I heard the sound of a door opening. We both snapped our heads towards the direction of the sound and we saw him. Logan Black. Since my room was at the high end of the hallway, I could see him clearly. Nina gasped as we both watched him make his way to the stairs in his skating jersey and with a cap shielding his face. “He is going to the stadium?” I
LOGANCertain things aren't always expected. Things like walking in on someone digging into your past. A painful past you thought you'd buried. There was nothing about my last that I wanted to remember. I had tried so hard to bury them and live my life. However, walking on Nina and Isabella having a conversation about what my past was like had triggered something inside of me. It brought back memories I never wanted to remember. I lost control, and for a moment, I didn't know what I was doing anymore. I had been so consumed by whatever tragedy had haunted me in the past that I didn't know I was hurting Isabella. When I realized what I was doing, I wished I had stopped earlier. I wished I hadn’t heard everything Isabella had asked Nina.Guilt and regret gnawed at my heart as I watched her eyes fill with pain. Even though this happened because she was prying into my past, I knew I was fucking wrong. Damn! If she wanted to know the kind of life I'd lived, she could have asked me. She
ISABELLANina’s body shook and without being told, I knew Logan was referring to her. I still couldn’t lift my head to look into his eyes. But I should. Especially now that he was talking to Nina. I should let him know that this wasn’t her fault, but mine. I had started it. I was the one who came to meet Nina. This wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t questioned her. “It’s my fault.” The words slipped out of my tongue before I could stop them. “You shouldn’t blame her.” I tilted my head up and shook it as my eyes met with Logan. His expression was unreadable, the kind that made me question whether he was offended or simply amused. “Come with me, Bella.” He ordered in a cold tone that sent a chill down my spine. The finality in his tone gave no room for negotiation. I rose to my feet almost immediately, sparing Nina one last apologetic look before trailing after Logan.He walked ahead of me, his back straight, his footsteps echoing louder than they should have as he ascended the sta
ISABELLAThe past few hours had been nothing but a tangled mess of thoughts. I’d been thinking about what might have happened to Logan, replaying his look when I questioned him. For fuck’s sake, I wasn’t meant to be bothered about him or what went wrong with him. Logan could take care of himself, but my timid heart wouldn’t just stop being concerned. “Get a hold of yourself, Isabella!” I cautioned myself, drawing in my lower lips. I was meant to be at the restaurant, working on important things that’d make the next Friday night memorable. However, I was here, locked up in a room, thinking about a man who didn’t give a fuck about me. A man who kept warning me not to fall in love with him because I probably didn’t deserve his heart. A hysterical laugh broke out of my lips. What the hell was even going through my mind? I dragged myself out of bed as I told myself he’d come around sooner or later. But before then, I should speak to Nina about him. Without wasting any more time in my
