Logan continued staring at the photograph.The businessman in the picture was not an ordinary figure.He was one of the country's most respected entrepreneurs, a man frequently invited to government functions and charitable events. His reputation was spotless, and countless people admired him.Yet there he was, captured in a clear surveillance image, shaking hands with a man already identified as one of the senior operatives of the criminal syndicate.Logan frowned."This photograph alone isn't enough," he said.The intelligence officer nodded."We know.""It establishes contact, but not guilt."Logan placed the photograph back into the envelope."I don't arrest people because of assumptions.""Exactly why you were chosen for this assignment," the officer replied.Logan looked up."I want every file connected to this man.""His companies.""Financial transactions.""Business partners.""Travel records.""Everything.""They'll be on your desk before morning."The officer saluted polite

Early the following morning, Logan left for the capital.Before leaving, he stopped by Elowen's residence one last time to check on his son after the recent hospital stay.The little boy was already energetic again, crawling around the sitting room with a toy airplane in his hand.The moment he saw Logan, he squealed happily and stretched out both arms.Logan smiled warmly."Someone looks much stronger today."He bent down, lifted the little boy into his arms, and gently kissed his forehead."I'm glad you're feeling better."The child laughed and grabbed Logan's nose, making both Logan and Elowen laugh."You've become his favorite person," Elowen said with a smile.Logan chuckled."I doubt that.""It's true," she replied. "Whenever he hears a car stop outside, he immediately looks toward the door."Logan looked at his son affectionately."I'll come back as soon as I can."Although the little boy could not understand the words, he smiled innocently as though responding.After spending

The following months settled into a quiet routine.Logan visited his son whenever his schedule permitted.If work prevented him from coming in person, he made time for a video call. Though the little boy was still too young to understand much, he had already begun recognizing Logan's face and voice. Every time the screen lit up with his father's image, the child would clap his tiny hands excitedly.That simple reaction always brought a smile to Logan's face.Meanwhile, Charlotte remained in Dalton, busy expanding Elysian Bloom into neighboring cities. The company was growing faster than she had imagined, and her days were filled with meetings, product launches, and negotiations. She and Logan spoke every evening, encouraging one another despite living apart for work.Neither of them imagined that another storm was quietly approaching.One afternoon, Logan was leaving a government conference when his phone rang.It was Elowen.He answered immediately."Hello.""Logan..."Her voice soun

Several months passed peacefully.The arrangement Logan had proposed remained exactly as it was.Whenever there was a medical appointment, Elowen informed him.Whenever their son needed anything, Logan made sure it was provided immediately.He never delayed.He never ignored a message concerning the child.However, outside matters relating to their son, there was almost no communication between them.Gradually, Elowen realized that Logan had truly meant every word he had spoken that day in the restaurant.He was a responsible father.But nothing more....One bright Saturday morning, Logan arrived at Elowen's residence for another scheduled visit.The security personnel opened the gates immediately after recognizing his vehicle.Inside the mansion, Elowen had already dressed their son neatly in a blue outfit.The little boy had grown remarkably within the past few months.He could now crawl across the sitting room at surprising speed and had begun attempting to stand with support.The

Elowen remained standing at the entrance long after Logan's vehicle had disappeared beyond the gates.The baby slept peacefully in her arms, unaware of the storm raging within his mother.Mrs. Beatrice approached quietly."Miss Elowen, you'll catch a cold standing out here."Elowen slowly turned around and walked back into the house without saying a word.She handed the baby to the nanny before making her way to the study.Closing the door behind her, she sank into the leather chair and stared blankly at the ceiling.Everything had gone wrong.She had spent hours preparing for Logan's visit.She had imagined that seeing their son would soften his heart.She thought perhaps he would stay longer.Perhaps he would ask about her.Perhaps he would see them together and realize they could still become a family.Instead, Logan had done exactly what he promised months earlier.He had come for the child.Only the child.Whenever she tried to steer the conversation toward herself, Logan gently

A week passed after Logan returned from seeing Elowen.Outwardly, everything appeared normal.He resumed handling official matters, attended meetings, and kept in close contact with Charlotte, who was still in Dalton while overseeing matters related to Elysian Bloom. Their conversations were warm as always, and Logan deliberately chose not to burden her further. He believed she had already carried enough emotional weight from hearing about the existence of the child.Meanwhile, Elowen spent her days in her luxurious villa, taking care of her newborn son.Every time she looked at the little boy, she became even more determined.She had informed Logan that the child had been born, yet that was all. Logan had not come to see the baby. Neither had he asked to spend time with him.Instead, he had simply arranged for the child's expenses to be fully covered. A trust fund was established in the baby's name, the best pediatrician in the city was assigned to monitor his health, and every finan
