As the announcement for his flight echoed through the terminal, Hope reluctantly pulled away. “Don’t forget to eat and get some rest,” she reminded him, placing her hands on his arms.

“I promise,” Logan assured her, gently tucking stray strands of hair behind her ear before leaning in to kiss her, pouring his emotions into the tender moment. Stepping back, he glanced briefly at Clifton.

“Keep watch while I’m away,” Logan instructed him solemnly, his gaze lingering with. full of concern.

“Don’t worry, Boss,” Clifton reassured Logan.

“Logan, I’ll take care of Hope as well. So, don’t stress about her well–being,” Paul’s girlfriend, Violet, chimed in, wrapping her arm around Hope’s shoulder for added comfort.

When Logan lost Olivia, he was shattered, and in the heat of the moment, I said something to him that caused him to resent me. Despite still communicating through Paul, our relationship was never the same.”
