Logan’s POV

She was already there when I arrived, sitting by the window, legs crossed, posture calm, but I saw it in her eyes.

Tension.

Not the angry kind, just quiet, distant.

I walked over, keeping my gaze on her. She didn’t look away.

“Hey,” I said, pulling out the chair across from her.

“Hey,” she replied, lips barely moving.

I sat, let the silence breathe for a second. Her eyes met mine, steady. Still so guarded.

“Once again… I’m sorry if I said something that hurt you.”

She didn’t answer right away. Just looked down briefly, then back at me.

“You didn’t hurt me,” she said too quickly, like it needed to be out of the way.

I looked at her for a moment. She always did that; acted unfazed when I knew better.

“You sure?”

She gave a small smile. “Sure, Mr Logan “

I studied her face.

Her fingers moved slowly around the rim of her glass.

Then I asked, “Can I ask you something?”

She gave me a side glance. “Depends,”

I smiled a little at her pettiness.

“Now that you and Jake are no long

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 043

    Logan's POV The first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was her. Amelia, curled against me, her hair messy across the pillow. My chest tightened. She looked too peaceful and perfect, like I might break her if I moved. Last night replayed over in my head. The way she touched me, the way she said my name. She gave herself to me and I hadn’t felt anything that real in years. I never wanted whatever this was to end now. But…I sighed deeply. Carefully, I brushed a strand of hair from her face. She moved a bit, sighing softly. Then my hand froze. Damn. How could someone like me deserve her? What was I even doing? I'll just end up hurting her. It's better I stick to the plan. But how about how I felt… I shifted slowly, careful not to wake her as I slid out of bed. But the sheets rustled and her lashes fluttered open. Amelia’s eyes met mine, still heavy with sleep, her cheeks pink. “Sorry, didn’t mean to wake you,” I murmured, leaning down. She shook her head, biting her lip, sud

    “I… I’m trying to process things,” Logan said, his voice rough. “Process what?” I snapped softly, tears burning my eyes. “Us kissing and you acting like nothing happened between us?” “Something happened.” He nodded, rubbing his hand through his hair like he was losing control. “I agree… I just… I’m confused.” “Then figure yourself out, Logan. And please...leave me out of it. Don’t kiss me anymore if it doesn’t mean anything to you!” My voice broke as the tears slipped free. He stopped. His eyes lifted, locking onto mine. “It did mean something to me.” His hand reached for mine, warm. “No, it didn’t,” I whispered, trying to pull away. “Yes..yes, it did,” he said firmly, holding tighter. “The first time we kissed… and now too. It…” His throat caught, words trembling in his mouth. “Logan…” I breathed, looking at him. He looked like he was begging me to believe him. “You drive me insane,” he finally said, his voice low. “God, Amelia… I think about you every second of the day. Eig

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 041

    Amelia's POV What has just happened? Why did he leave suddenly? I stood there, and touched my lips before moving back to our seat. Still my mind still went back to that moment. The way he touched me, the way we both went away from reality and just focused on the kiss…. Was this still part of the contract? The way I felt, the tension I felt…was this still based on a paper. I was confused and just sat there, thinking. Was he as nervous as I was? I don't think so but…I don't even know. I touched my chest and felt how fast my heart was beating. Oh Amelia.. What's going on? A sudden touch on my back made me flinch. I turned and found Monsieur Durand standing there, a glass of wine in hand and that ever-present charming smile on his face. “Didnt think I'd see you again, Ms Connels,” he said smoothly, as though the sight of me made his evening. “Well,” I smiled nervously, “We’re in the same hotel and all…the chances are 90%” I told him, keeping my voice calm. “Yes, yes. I don't s

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 040

    Logan's POV Her eyes were locked on mine, sharp but unsure, and for a second I almost stepped back. Almost. But then my hand brushed her cheek, and she didn’t push me away. God, she didn’t push me away. Her lips were right there, and I couldn’t stop myself. My chest tightened and every part of me was screaming to close the distance. So I did. And then my lips touched hers; just soft, barely there, like a permission. I wasn’t sure if she’d let me, if she’d turn her head and leave me hanging. But she didn’t. “Logan..” she breathed, the smallest breath left her mouth against mine, shaky, and it was enough to break me. "Tell me to stop, and I will," I said as I pressed closer. She didn't say anything so I kissed her, moving slowly because if I rushed I’d ruin it. I savoured the taste of her lipstick and I loved every part of it. My tongue flicked with hers, playing with each other. I heard the slight chuckle she let out. Her hands clutched at my shirt tighter, pulling

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 039

    Amelia's POV I was actually stunned by how big and wide the ship for the cruise ship was. Honestly, it felt more like a palace floating on water. It had a fine elegant setting. “Wow,,” I muttered to myself since Logan wasn't near me. It was giving this plane-like feeling but more comfortable because I loved looking at the ocean. Paris at night was so beautiful, it was moments like this you'd be with people you loved. Inside, the tables had candles that flickered softly, and a man with a bow tie was playing something smooth on a saxophone. Soft jazz. Romantic. But I don't know, it felt the kind of atmosphere I didn’t need right now. I don't even know if I am that angry at Logan or I'm just so pissed that Jake's here. I was in Paris with Jake like last year and this year I hated any fiber of him close to me. Logan on the other hand, it was fun giving him the silent treatment. A bit childish? yeah maybe. Satisfying? Very. I walked to the table section where dance chai

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 038

    Logan’s POV It was finally time for the event of the night: the Dinner Cruise. Amelia hadn’t said a single word to me since this afternoon. I couldn’t even blame her. I was the one who convinced her to let Jake come along, and now everything was spiraling. But that didn’t make the silence any easier to handle. Especially when she looked… like that, all beautiful and dressed up. She wore a satin floral gown that hugged her body just right, flowing yet delicate, the kind of dress that made me want to pull her into my arms and never let go. Instead, I kept my eyes down, focusing on buttoning my shirt like it mattered. The plan hadn’t gone smoothly today, thanks to Jana’s little stupid drama but at least Amelia was definitely tired of her ex. That counted for something. My phone buzzed on the table, Snipe was called He must have landed in Paris by now. I glanced at Amelia as she adjusted her earrings, carefully. There was no way was I answering his call right now. I cut it o
