2026-05-15 23:29:36Meanwhile, Logan began to lead Mia through the aisles of beautiful clothes and he was deeply happy when he saw the cheerful smile on her face as she began picking some clothes.
“Dada, I like this one!” She said, jumping happily. “Dada, I want that dress! Can I have it?”
With a warm look on his face, Logan lifted his daughter so he could look her in the eyes. “Of course, my princess, you can have anything you want.”
Mia gave Logan a toothy smile before turning her gaze until she spotted a beautiful blue dress.
“Dada, I want that Cinderella dress,”
“Right away.” Logan carried his little girl to the aisle in the store and gently put her down.
Mia had just picked up the dress when another little girl suddenly snatched it from her hand.
"This is mine." The girl glared at Mia before pushing her to the ground.
The middle-aged couple behind her simply stood there, watching their daughter bully another girl.
Logan's eyes widened as he quickly rushed forward to help her up, checking if she was hurt anywhere. He looked at the other girl with surprise before looking up to find that her parents didn't care about what their daughter had just done, nor were they reprimanding her for it.
Meanwhile, it was at that moment that Stacy entered the store with shocked eyes. She had rushed over earlier to confront Logan for wasting away her sister's hard-earned money, then she caught the sight of the other girl snatching away the blue dress from Mia's hand before pushing her to the ground.
Luckily, Mia wasn't hurt, but she was quite furious as she got back up and faced the other girl who was around her age.
"That was mean. That dress is mine."
"That was mean." The girl said, mimicking Mia. "Ha! You snooze, you lose!" She added, sticking out her tongue at Mia mockingly.
"No, it's mine! Give that back.” Mia leaped forward grabbing the other end of the blue dress. "I took the Cinderella dress first so it's mine,"
Logan was lost for a while until he found Stacy walking towards him. "What do you want now?"
"I'm here to stop you from spending my sister's money, you pathetic loser." Stacy pointed an accusing finger in Logan's face.
Logan rolled his eyes before ignoring her. The Coopers never get tired of bothering him, do they?
This was when the middle-aged couple began insulting Mia and her father.
"You!" The middle-aged woman snapped at Logan, "Get your wild child off my daughter right now and tame her properly." She spoke with a standoffish attitude. "My goodness, does this mall just allow the riff-raffs in here nowadays?"
Logan was about to retort when he saw Mia kicking the other girl, forcing her to let go of the dress, then she quickly ran and hid behind her father's legs with the blue dress successfully in her grasp.
Even Logan had to admit that his daughter was no pushover. She could be feisty when she needed to be. He couldn't stop a smile from forming on his lips.
"How dare you kick my daughter?" The middle-aged man spoke with fury as he glared at Mia, he then turned to Logan, "You! Look at the way you're dressed. It's clear that you and your daughter are middle class citizens. How dare your daughter bully my child?!"
"Sir, please watch your tongue." Logan spoke with a calm tone even though his eyes were scary at the moment. "My daughter and I are customers at this establishment just like you. So I refuse to take any insult just because you've deceived yourself into believing that you're above us."
"My goodness, he's even talking back to us." The woman shrieked as she called the attention of the nearest staff. "I want that dress taken from that little witch’s hands right now!"
The staff seeing that the so-called witch was cute little Mia, tried to reason with the couple first. "But Ma'am, there are more blue dresses like that one in the store. I can help you get one with even better designs."
"No! That blue dress is what my daughter wants.” The man spoke with an air of authority like he was talking to his servants. "If you don't get us that dress, we will return all the $300,000 worth of items we've purchased today."
Logan almost laughed. $300,000? That was nothing to him. Unknown to anyone here, he had chosen up to $900,000 worth of items in this boutique. He just wanted Mia to pick everything she wanted so he could pay for it at once. But the staff, being unaware of this, went up against Logan and Mia, asking them to let the dress go…

Chapter 20: The Rejected Truth and Confrontation
Logan looked at the resentment in his wife's eyes then began to explain. “Ava, the truth is… I'm not who you think I am. I belong to a very powerful family, and I'm the heir to the business empire. The headquarters is being controlled by my family's butler named Alfred Alfonso. So you see, I'm a….” “Shut up, you liar!” Ava angrily grabbed her pillow and threw it at Logan's face. “That's it! I can't stand seeing your face right now.” She pointed at the bedroom door. “I want you to get out! You're sleeping in the living room tonight until you stop trying to feed me all this nonsense, you're not sleeping anywhere near me!” Logan was speechless. He would have persisted but he could tell that Ava was too tired for this conversation, so he got up and left. Mia finally woke up the next day and cried when she saw her parents. Logan and Ava couldn't hold in their emotions when they hugged their daughter. It took two weeks of proper monitoring before the doctors officially discharged M
Chapter 19: New Heart, Old Misunderstandings
Logan was beyond amused that he almost burst out laughing, Adriana was taking the glory for what he did. However, instead of exposing her lies, he decided to watch and see how well she faked it "You're too kind Adriana, unlike some people who tried to lie and deceive us about having a familial relationship with the CEO." Stacy said, giving Logan a hateful glare. "Just ignore that clown." Leslie said, sneering at Logan. "A lowlife like you who tried to claim Astral Corp's CEO is your butler. How pathetic." Ava walked over to Adriana with a warm smile. "You helped my family and I would like to repay that. How about I buy you dinner? Please, don't refuse me." "Okay, I won't refuse you but if you don't mind, I'll be bringing my older brother. He has always wanted to meet you. If that's okay with you…" Adriana requested and glanced at Logan. Ava agreed immediately. Logan watched how his wife made plans to have dinner with this ridiculous woman and her stupid brother the coming day.
Chapter 18: The Fraudulent Favor
Meanwhile, at the Cooper family house. Leslie Cooper was shaking when she was on the phone with someone. "This is such great news. Thank you so much for reconsidering my proposal. I'll make sure to rewrite it before sending it to your company. Thank you." Stacy walked into the living room to see her getting out of a phone call and screaming in joy. "Oh my God, Mom. What was that for?" She asked, covering her ears with her hands. "You won't believe who I was talking to just now." Leslie rushed over to her daughter and held her hand. " Astral Corp’s headquarters just called me and they expressed their interest in accepting my proposal." "Oh my, that's good news. How did it happen?" Leslie thought for a minute and then looked at her daughter with a smile. "It was none other than Adriana Lima. I'm sure she did all this. Guess her father does have connections after all." Then Stacy saw her picking up her bag and car keys. "But where are you going, mom?" "To the hospital, dea

"Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.” Logan whispered, almost tearing up. Then he remembered the conversation he had with Leslie and Stacy at the cafeteria. He didn't want to do it, but for Ava, he instructed Alfred. "I need you to give feedback to Smile Corporation on the proposal that the deputy sales director has been trying to get you onboard with. You can instruct them on how to update their proposal and the amount you want to pour into the business, I'll leave it to your capable hands." "Very well sir but if I may ask, the deputy sales director is your mother-in-law, isn't it?" Logan sighed as he shook his head. "If you already know this, then why ask again, Alfred? I already know you ran a background check on me." Alfred chuckled softly. "You seem to know me very well, sire. If that is all, I'll get to work now." The elevator dinged and he stepped out with the phone still in his ears. "Thank you very much, butler Alfred." He said discreetly, not wanting th
Chapter 16: The Truth Dismissed as a Lie
Logan turned back to them and said to Leslie in a low voice, "I think it's quite… Good, but your proposal will need a lot of polishing in it if you really want a company like Astral Corp to invest their money into your business." "I don't need your opinion on my proposal." She said with a displeased look. "What do you even know about business?" She quickly held her tongue before she said any more insulting words. She really needed his help so for now, she needed to behave. Logan sucked in a breath, "That can be arranged." He decided that it was no use hiding the truth from them since it would be revealed in the future anyways. "The CEO is my family's trusted steward, so getting you to meet him is nothing." The smile on Leslie's face morphed into a look of anger. "What the heck are you saying?" Logan was shocked about her sudden change in reaction. Did he say something wrong? Stacy suddenly began to laugh. "I told you not to come to this fool for help, mom. Now, look at him
