All Chapters of The Heiress And The Billionaire's Revenge : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

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

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 barely noticed the door opening. My eyes were fixed on the email, the words blurring because my eyes were becoming slightly teary and I noticed hands wouldn’t stop shaking too. Shipments cancelled? Partnership withdrawn. The largest client we've had in years. My throat felt dry, my chest tight. This was the first time that something like this is happening in the years of me becoming CEO of Connells ENT. “Amelia?” Logan’s voice was calm, steady as he walked in. I turned towards him, my breath shaking. “Logan… something happened.” My voice cracked, and I hated how weak I almost sounded. “One of our biggest shipments was cancelled today. Our clients, they pulled out of the deal. Cathy just sent me the email... I'm so confused right now.” He moved closer, his steps slow and deliberate, a slight worry on his face. “Sit down,” he said softly, guiding me towards the edge of the bed. His hand brushed my arm, his touch warm, and grounding but somehow it only made my panic spill out fast

My breath caught. Did he just… ask me that? The world around us blurred. I could swear I heard my own pulse hammering in my ears. Me? I wasn’t even sure if I was going to hear that word again this early. Was he serious?? I mean yes I want to be, Logan. Yess I opened my mouth but nothing came out. “Logan…” My voice cracked, soft, helpless. His thumb brushed my cheek, tender but steady. “Don’t overthink it. I know you’re not really sure, but I also know what I feel when I’m with you. You ground me, Amelia and I don’t want you to be my fake girlfriend anymore. It’s real…what I feel for you.” I swallowed hard, blinking back the small sting in my eyes. “ I understand… I just don’t know if I can….” What was I doing?? He pressed his forehead gently against mine, stopping my worries. “You don’t have to answer tonight,” he whispered. “Just… don’t push me away.” The lump in my throat grew so big it hurt to breathe. I nodded faintly, unable to form words. Finally, he pu

Logan's POV The moment I stepped back from the group of men I’d been speaking with, I realized I hadn’t heard a single word they’d said for the last ten minutes. Not one. Because my eyes had been somewhere else. On Amelia. I couldn't say anything to defend myself after what Jana had started. Trust, I was gonna kill her this time. Amelia wanted to hear an explanation from me, but I gave her none because I couldn't just say anything. But she was never gonna talk to me again if I didn't tell her, was she? I sighed heavily, my chest feeling tight. I needed room, I needed space from all….this. So I walked out of the party room, I was going back to my suite because I was done with this. Once again, I was leaving Amelia behind. Was I a coward? Perhaps. Because I always walked away from things I felt was too much to deal with. I hadn't heard from Snipe since two days now so it's better to go check up on him. I went towards the direction of his room and stopped when I
