The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

Chapter 1164

Barry was rambling on, his lighthearted and chatty demeanor soon dragging Logan into the conversation.

"Everyone was buzzing with excitement when they heard you were coming, Logan. Your reputation precedes you, so having you visit our hospital was a real surprise for many. Even Faye was taken aback, had to double-check it was really you." Logan was momentarily stunned. Faye had actually asked about him?

A rush of indescribable emotions flooded him, and for the first time in a while, Logan found himself speaking up, "This Faye you're talking about?"

"Oh, I meant to ask if you knew Faye. You know, Chief Faye?"

Hearing that name that had been etched into his mind countless times, Logan couldn't help but feel his heart race, as if he was suddenly transported back to those high school days.

Lost in his thoughts, Logan didn't even notice Barry calling his name until a sharp "Logan!" snapped him back to reality.

"What's up?" Logan, still slightly dazed, locked eyes with Barry.

Barry, scratching his head awkwardly, thought he had misspoken, "Oh, nothing, Logan. Just that we've arrived at the hospital."

Shaking off his reverie like waking from a dream, Logan stepped out of the car, adjusting his outfit as he took in the sight of the large building before him.

A crowd had gathered outside the hospital to welcome him, and among them, Logan's gaze immediately found Faye, the person he had been secretly longing for.

Faye, recognizing Logan, was genuinely thrilled beyond her initial shock.
