The Son-In-Law’s Revenge

46

His car stopped finally at the restaurant, he dragged a breath as he looked into the vicinity again for what seemed like a long minute.

Confused by the anonymous messages that kept popping in filled with pictures of Joanne and the other man he stomped into the restaurant, his heart beating heavily.

The door man tries to stop him but was shoved away.

He walked in suspense filled into the room, time paused, just the silent echoes from Logan's own heart beating erratically .

Bu-bum!

Bu-bum !!

*******

Present Moment…

He stood there for a moment taking in the view as he watched their lips touch, she backed away soon enough and turned to see him .

He had a smirk on his face. She wanted to leave after him but Armani's hand held her back .

"What are you doing?" He questioned.

"Isn't it obvious, I am getting away from you."

He smirked. "You did that when was it again, yesterday and you are back to me today, what more do you need to know that this is not working— I mean whatever you think you share. "

She looked at the door again, her mind weighed between what she had seen and why she needed Armani, the fact that all of this was because she needed him to sign a paper .

" Well,. Fine I'd stay but no more kissing. "

" No , more kissing," he promised. "

It was distracting the big blank space left at the back of her mind by the event that just unfolded just moments ago.

No matter how much she tried to , she couldn't get it out of her mind . The sequence of the entire situation was sickling even to her. She hated the fact that he saw them and even more she hated the kiss.

To think that he had kissed her just days ago was it not , and she had slapped him across his face.

All Armani did was brag about how superior he was and how he would have broken Logan's face if he had acted up.

She tried as much as possible not to listen to what he had to say, but at a certain point she found herself comparing the two more and more every moment.

When she couldn't take it anymore, she glanced at her watch.

"I think it is time to leave." She muttered.

"It is still early." He replies. " Are you sure?"

"Yeah, besides I still have to make a few stops."

"I'd drop you then. "

" That is not necessary, one of the men texted, he is outside already. "

" I'd work for you then. " He insisted.

She rolled her eyes, she was tired of the man, and the way he usually acted all too paranoid, it wasn't really the reason why he had broken up with her, but it was definitely why she had not given it another thought.

He got the door from her and attempted to kiss her again, this time she was quick to act and the kiss fell right on her chin.

"Call me when you get home." He muttered.

" I would." She rolled her eyes countless times.

Soon as the car left , Armani walked back into the restaurant with a smirk on his face.

He dialed up a number. "We almost have them to ourselves, phase one is done."

****

There was just one question at the back of her mind as the car drove slowly and it was how she was going to get out of this mess.

She definitely knew she had some explaining to do about how everything happened, especially the kiss.

It haunted her soul, she had tried calling him to let him know but obviously he was still pissed at her.

Finally, the car pulled up at the parking lot and she got out making way to the lift. She swiped with her key and stepped in with the two guards behind her.

Her heart echoed within her. Soon the lift stopped, the door opened as she stepped out.

She calls him…

No replies.

"Where could he be?" She questioned. His room was all empty as well, it looked for a minute like he had left.

"Ask the guards if they saw him leaving."

As they walked away from where she was, she braced her hands on the table with a disrupted feeling over her face.

" What have I done? "She muttered as she ran her fingers through her hair.

With the way she was worried about Logan she found the situation very worrisome.

In any other circumstance it would be hilarious, but in this one, not so much: Could it be that he was starting to have a hold on her?

The guard she was sent walked in a couple of minutes later. "I heard he left with his bag."

"Really?" She asked..

"He left for the other apartment."

Immediately she heard the words her palm clutches the table holding it close in an iron

grip.

Her mind is disturbed as he thought that he might be alone with Wade left her feeling a bit unsettled.

"Get my car ready, we leave at twenty ."

Once again, her mind was ruined,  sweat trickled down as she made way to the room and packed her bags, for some reason she was mad at him.

"Coward, why can't he just wait to face me."

She decided she needed a shower first, then she can figure out what her next steps are.

And why the hell wasn't he picking his phone.

"Pick the god-damned phone!"

She slammed the phone to the room and walked into the bathroom.

She didn't care about anything at that moment, she just wanted to look into his eyes and tell him she hadn't really wanted to kiss Armani, she didn't know why but she felt she owed him.

She had lied to him for far too long, making her dreadful of the truth. Much to her dismay, he wasn't here,he wasn't here to listen to her say those words, it was getting obvious that she was.

she sighed to herself again, as she duck under the soapy bath 

Soapy bubbles popped.
