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

    Logan's POV Jana’s fingers tightened on my arm the second we stepped out of the black car. Cameras flashed immediately–loud, aggressive, blinding. The hotel entrance was burning with white light.I didn’t smile.I couldn’t.But Jana did. Big, fake, and confident… like she had won something.She leaned closer to whisper through her teeth.“Remember, Logan. Behave. If you don't, Amelia will never see you the same again.”Her voice was light, but the threat in it was sharp.My jaw locked. My hands were in fists. The guts of this woman. I wanted to push her away, walk back into the car, disappear. But I stayed. Because she had said the one thing that I needed to know; the person behind Amelia's attack.I didn’t know if she was lying or not, but she knew a detail she shouldn’t have known. Something only someone close to the person behind it would know. And if she was telling the truth… I couldn’t risk Amelia getting hurt again.So I let Jana hold onto me.The photographers shouted our na

    Amelia's POV I woke up feeling like my whole body had been drained of life. My eyes felt heavy, sore, and hot, as if they had been washed with salt. My head was pounding from crying too much, and for a moment, I just lay there staring at the chandelier in my room, trying to breathe without my chest tightening.When I rolled onto my side, I saw Alex sitting on the chair beside my bed. His hair was messy as if he had barely slept and he looked at me with soft worried eyes.“You’re awake,” he said gently.I nodded. “Yeah.”“You want water?”“No… I’m fine.”He didn’t believe me I was and I didn’t even believe myself.I reached for my phone not because I wanted to talk to anyone, but because for some stupid reason… I wanted to know if Logan had called. A part of me kept hoping he would check on me, even though he had made it clear to me that our relationship meant nothing to him.When the screen lit up…Nothing.There was no missed call, no message, nothing from him.I swallowed my disap

    Logan’s POVMy office was quiet.I stared at the documents on my desk, the numbers blurring together. My pen hovered over the page, but nothing was making sense. I had been sitting here for hours, pretending to work, pretending I could focus.But I couldn’t.I was hurting deeply. The fact that I and Amelia were… done.I squeezed my eyes shut and leaned back in my chair.“Fuck,” I muttered under my breath, hitting the armrest with my fist not too loud, but loud enough to release some of the frustration boiling inside me.A soft knock came almost immediately.My assistant, Anna, peeked her head in. “Sir? Are you okay?”I straightened and forced a neutral expression. “Yes. I’m fine.”She nodded slowly, not convinced, but she stepped back and closed the door.I ran a hand through my hair, letting out a long breath.This was ridiculous. I couldn’t keep thinking about her. I had work. I had responsibilities. I had a company to run.But every time I told myself to move on, it felt like my c

    Alex's POV The mansion was quiet, very quiet. Because everyone was sad about Mama Linda’s death. Honestly it's sad that I'd never see her smile in the kitchen anymore.I stepped out of my room and headed downstairs, even the walls felt different, as if they were grieving with us.I don't know why I was expecting to see Amelia at her usual morning spot–the dining area, all dressed up and ready to go to her office. I didn't see her anyways.Helen was standing by the hallway, her arms folded, a worried expression on her face.“Helen,” I called.She jumped a little. “Oh—Alex. I didn’t hear you.”“Well, how long have you been here? Is she out yet?”Helen shook her head. “I checked on her twice. She’s still in her room. She hasn’t eaten, hasn’t even opened the door… she just keeps telling me to go away.”My chest tightened.I didn’t expect her to bounce back immediately, but Amelia shutting people out… meant she's really hurt.“Ok, let’s go together,” I said.Helen nodded, falling into st

    Amelia’s POV The cold air hit me the moment I stepped out of Logan’s mansion. My chest felt tight. Every breath was heavy, as if I was carrying a weight I couldn’t put down. I nodded when Erica asked if I was okay, even though I wasn’t. I swallowed hard and forced my legs to move toward my car. Each step felt heavy, as if the weight of the world was pressing down on me. Sitting behind the wheel, I just stared ahead, hands gripping the steering wheel like it was the only thing keeping me grounded. The silence inside the car was deafening. I dialed Helen’s number, my fingers shaking so much I almost dropped the phone. “Hello?” Her voice was warm, but I could tell she sensed something was wrong. “It’s over, Logan and I” I whispered, my voice cracking. “I think it’s really over.” There was a pause. Then Helen’s voice was soft but steady, “Amelia… I’m so sorry. Do you want to talk about it?” I shook my head even though she couldn’t see me. “I don’t even know what to say.

  • The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge    Chapter 075

    Logan’s POV I opened the door for her before I could change my mind. She stood there.I wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked today. White dress. Soft makeup. Eyes tired-- not from lack of sleep, but from holding too many emotions at once. I felt something inside me collapse. I forced my face into something neutral. “Come in,” I said quietly. She stepped inside slowly, like she wasn’t sure she was welcome. I moved back and gestured to the seat in front of my desk. “You can....sit.” She sat. Hands on her lap. Nervous. I stood instead of taking the chair opposite her. It felt safer — distance felt safer. I didn’t trust myself to speak if I was so close to her. If I said the wrong thing, I’d break her. If I said the truth, I’d break myself. There was silence between us. The air was too heavy. She finally broke first. “What happened? What's happening?” her voice was barely a whisper. “What changed, Logan?” I didn’t answer. She swallowed hard, her voice shaking slig
