Chapter 2 - Logan Realizes The Deception
The ice-cold realization washed over Logan as he stared directly into the eyes of the blonde woman.
The grand estate foyer remained utterly silent, save for the faint, steady rustle of the US flag near the sweeping staircase.
The light blue and white traditional maid uniform of the young woman trembled slightly as she lowered her smartphone.
“Logan, she locked the study doors from the inside and ambushed your mother right after the morning meeting,” the maid whispered.
The blonde woman in the ruby red satin evening gown tried to maintain her theatrical posture, but her fingers twitched nervously.
“Don't listen to her hysterical lies, Logan; she’s covering up her own gross incompetence and negligence!” the blonde woman protested shrilly.
Logan did not break eye contact, his athletic frame radiating a quiet, terrifying aura of controlled fury.
He stepped past the terrified maid, his dark navy blue suit brushing against the polished marble floor.
