Chapter 065- Shattered Loyalties
Logan’s jaw tightened. He glanced at the cracked table, then at both of them. “Yvonne,” he said, grinding his teeth.Logan paced the floor like a lion in a cage, his boots hitting the marble with a rhythm that spoke more of confusion than control. Every second, he turned on his heels, hands clenching and unclenching at his sides.Madame Amelia sat on the edge of the living room resting sofa, her arms folded tightly against her chest. “I thought… finally, I thought we’d breathe good for once. The moment your identity was cleared—Logan then these people no longer saw you as a bastard. I was happy—and yet, what have we had since? Chaos! Death, kidnappings, betrayals! Not even a month, and peace is already a distant dream we must keep chasing. I’m tired. We are bleeding and—”“Enough.” Tempête’s voice cut clean through the air, sharper than an unsheathed sword. “This is not the time to wail. We don't want to cry? Fine. But let it be after something is done to save Lady Diane. If you don’t
Chapter 064- You Just Picked The Second Option
“You’re speaking to the President of the republic,” the voice snapped, trembling with rage. “The father of the man you murdered.”Logan kept the phone close to his ear, his eyes narrowed as the weight of the voice on the other end sank in.“President Luther?” he repeated, confused. “Why the hell are you calling me? I didn’t kill your son.”There was silence for about a minute. Then the voice returned, laced with more anger.“You’re not even worth interrupting my sleep for, Logan. But I’m making an exception.” the president paused for a second before continuing. “You’ll show up tomorrow at Lutheriux Lounge. Don’t be late.”Logan blinked. “Lutheriux Lounge? Where’s that?”A bitter chuckle came through the line. “You really are just a novice, aren’t you? A special assassin breed… you even sound like a teenager! You better not be.”Logan frowned. “What the stink is that supposed to mean, Mr. President sir?”“How can a full-time killer not know the biggest name lounge in all of Brixton me
Chapter 063- You Don’t Have to Face Him Anymore
“Agh! My lord… it’s me… Tempête,” the man groaned, holding his head. “What has happened to you? You don’t recognize me anymore?” "I'm sorry, Tempête..." Logan muttered, his voice low as his eyes scanned the quiet street. "I didn’t mean to hit you like that. I thought it was someone else" Tempête, still nursing his swollen forehead, quickly shook his head. "Don’t apologize, my lord. Please. Don’t." Logan looked at him, guilt still thick in his chest. "I should be the one apologizing," Tempête continued, his voice shaking slightly. "After I didn't get reinforcements yesterday, I... I didn't know exactly where to look for you. Me and the two pilots… we searched everywhere. Every checkpoint, every alley, every damn street we could find in this bullshit country. But you were gone." Logan said nothing, letting Tempête spill anything he had to say. Tempête’s eyes glassed up a little. "But I saw it. The old car. That black Peugeot. You were inside. Driven off by some old bastard I could
Chapter 062- Near Death
"I implanted a bomb on myself," El Abrham whispered, his countenance fading fast. "It will go off in five minutes... starting from a minute ago.” “What do you mean—implanted?” Logan stammered, eyes wide with horror. “I don’t care why you did it—take off your clothes! Let’s defuse it now!” He frantically ran his hands over El Abrham, desperate to find and remove the bomb. “Ah, little one,” El Abrham sighed, offering a bitter smile. “Give my regards to your family… and good luck making Piero pay for his crimes—” He didn’t get to finish. A shrill, continuous beep erupted from under his clothes, and Logan bolted out of the car in a frenzy, running for his life. El Abrham smiled in satisfaction, watching Logan flee. “Thank you, Allah… for granting me my final wish,” he whispered, rubbing his palms together as he prepared for his last prayer. Then— “Bang!” “KABOOM!” The bomb inside El Abrham detonated with a thunderous blast, shaking the entire city of Kabul. Logan hadn’t gotten f
Chapter 061- "It Will Go Off in Five Minutes"
El Abrham turned to face Logan fully, his eyes cold yet calculating. "Yes, he did. And he did not regret it. Your father was a strong man, a man with a kind heart. But he..." El Abrham paused, wiping tears from his eyes with the collar of his clothes. Logan observed the moment in silence. Somehow, Logan was starting to believe he was wrong about El Abrham and that he wasn't evil and stronghearted as his mind had concluded so far. Slowly, he got down from the Peugeot and walked to where El Abrham knelt. A surge of willpower he couldn't fathom, enveloped him as he also knelt beside El Abrham. Even though he wasn't sure if to believe El Abrham yet or not, he felt strongly connected to the dilapidated tombstone in front of him. He felt the same way he was feeling when he was with Grandpa Dom at the hospital before he gave up the ghost. His eyes shifted to El Abrham who was still muttering some Arabic supplications amidst sobs he was trying to head back. Logan was not willing to have
Chapter 060- Meeting Father's Grave
Chapter 060- Meeting Father's Grave"I need reinforcements," Tempête snarled into the receiver, his voice steely. "Lord Logan's been taken away."************In the grand living room of the Reed Mansion, Diane paced back and forth, her voice rising with anger. "I swear, I’ll make sure that doctor rots in jail! How can a patient just go missing from his hospital, and he totally claims to know nothing about it?"Madame Amelia, seated on the couch, rubbed her knees in frustration. "Diane, calm down. What you did by involving the police might be a mistake. He could be innocent.""Innocent?" Diane shot back, her eyes blazing. "There's no way he doesn’t know something, mother. I’m certain he’s hiding information about Logan and Tempête’s whereabouts."Madame Amelia sighed deeply. "Instead of jumping to conclusions, we should focus on calling them. Have you tried their numbers again?"Diane paused, pulling out her phone. "I'll try Tempête's number on WhatsApp. Maybe that’ll work.""Please,
