From Rejected Son in Law to Empire Heir

Chapter 12: On His Knees

 Meanwhile, at the gate, most of the internal staff members were watching a scene which was happening outside with awe and amazement. Logan had gained the upper hand and singlehandedly beat his colleagues that were harassing him. He refused to be a pushover because he wasn't working for them anymore. 

 Francis took a step back when he saw that Logan was the one winning. He never expected for Logan to be the one winning, he growled, stomping his feet. "Why are you all useless? Such a small task, and you all failed to carry it out." 

 The security guards were also shocked too. They couldn't explain how Logan could singlehandedly take them down. His power was quite scary. 

 "What the hell is going out here?" Jared's furious deep voice echoed, gaining everyone's attention. 

 Francis' face lit up when he saw that it was the company's general manager. "Sir, I'm equally shocked as you are." He rushed over to his side. "This man is really barbaric. If I had known earlier that this is his true nature, I could have gotten him fired a long time ago. Look at how he beat up his colleagues." Francis said, giving the head of security a sign to add more fuel to the fire. 

 The head of security guard understood Francis' message as he rushed over to Jared. "It's true general manager Sir.  He's really a beast. We were just peacefully telling him to leave the premises just as you had asked but he turned around and attacked us." 

 "See," Francis interjected, "Mr Fisher, this is considered to be a criminal case. We should hand this trash over to the police and let him rot." 

 "Shut up!" Fisher yelled as he turned a furious glare at Francis. He grabbed the man on the collar of his shirt. "I suggest you shut that hole you call a mouth and keep it quiet." 

 The audience, who were numerous workers at the company, were really shocked at Jared's outburst as they began to murmur among themselves. They wondered why he was not agreeing to get Logan arrested. 

 Francis was beyond confused. "Mr Fisher, what is going on?" 

 "Listen, you mischievous imp, I'm only going to say this once.” Jared grabbed the man's collar even tighter. "You're going to apologize to Mr Mitchell over here or I'll make you regret the day you stepped foot into this company."

 Everyone gasped.

 The audience were stunned by Fisher's words. They wondered what was going on.

 "What?" Francis' eyes widened as he stared at Fisher. He was taken aback. "Sir, do you really know what you're asking of me?"

 "And I won't ask you again." Jared's voice became more cold, he showed that it was actually a threat. "Apologize to Mr Mitchell right now or lose everything." Then he pushed the director away.

 Fear gripped Francis when he saw how serious his superior was. He wondered what changed as he thought of reasons why he would suddenly switch sides. The only reason he could think of was that maybe Logan had offered his beautiful wife to the general manager and now the man was his puppet.

 "That whore…" He muttered under his breath as he cursed Ava.

 Everyone watched as Francis turned over to Logan. "I am... I am...sorry." Francis said with much reluctance. It was really harder than he thought.

 "Apology not accepted." Logan said flatly as he pointed at Francis and then at the people who were watching. "Everyone here could tell that your apology was fake." He said, raising a finger. "You have one last chance to do it right or else, I will walk away." Logan said those last words while looking at Jared.

 Jared shook with fear as he remembered his superior’s warning. He turned to Francis with anger. "Are you deaf or just plain stupid?  Can't you hear what he is saying? I want you to go over there, bow to Mr Mitchell and ask for forgiveness. Make sure it's sincere this time or else..."

 With how loud Jared's voice was, Francis' body turned stiff as he gulped, before walking towards Logan.

 He stood in front of Logan's composed posture, he then slowly bowed. "Mr Logan Mitchell, I am deeply sorry for the trouble I have caused you. Please, can you see it fit to forgive all my wrong doings?"

 Everyone stood there shocked, especially the security men and Logan's colleagues who were now shivering in fear. They wondered why a man who held much power and authority in their company was being forced to bow to a poor man like Logan. Things weren't adding up but that was the least of their problems, right now, they feared what Logan would do to them for what they did to him.
