Did she want to divorce him?

She really had some nerve. She even dared to

throw out the divorce card. Wasn’t she afraid
he might actually walk away?
A surge of fury reignited in Logan’s chest, so
intense his hands began to tremble. He
yanked the document out and flipped
through it in a frenzy, eyes scanning but
registering nothing.
On the last page, he saw his name.
His signature.
When had he signed it? He had no memory

of this.
Impossible. He hadn’t achieved his goal yet,
he never truly meant to leave Cecilia: How
could he have signed a divorce agreement?
“Fake. This has to be fake!” Logan muttered
stiffly, his voice cracking.
But then, a memory hit him.

The night Leah moved in, Cecilia had handed
him a document. He hadn’t even glanced at
it, Leah was unwell, and he had been

desperate to check on her.
“She tricked me. She actually dared to trick
me!”
Logan lost it. He tried to tear the divorce papers apart, but the housekeeper quickly stepped in and stopped him.
“Sir, why not take a look at the USB Madam
left behind? It might contain clues about
where she went.”
Logan shut his eyes, took a deep breath, and

forced himself to calm down. Then he sat
before the computer.
There were three video files on the USB.
He clicked on the first.
Cecilia appeared on the screen, her back
facing the camera, standing just outside the
study door.
Inside, the sound of his and Leah’s flirtatious
laughter came through clearly. And she had
just stood there quietly for a long time.

Later, he came out of the room.
He remembered he’d meant to comfort her.
But she had been so distant those days,
slipping further from his grasp. His temper
got the better of him.
He never meant to hurt her. It was that damn
obsession with control. It always was.

On–screen, he watched his past self casually
sign the paper without even sparing her a
glance, then turn and rush into another
woman’s arms right in front of his wounded

wife.
And then, he shoved her to the ground so
violently she didn’t get up for a long while.
So, the divorce agreement really had been
signed by him in his own hands.
In the second video, Cecilia was seen
dragging herself out of the room. She
crawled, trembling, to the door and barely
managed to pull it open before someone
came to help her.

Her face was ashen, her hair and the back of
her shirt drenched in cold sweat, utterly
pitiful.
Logan remembered that day clearly.
He had taken Leah to the hospital and spent
the night there.
Cecilia had called once during that time.
He’d scolded her for bothering Leah, then
blocked her number.

Days later, when he finally unblocked her, she
quietly told him she’d been in the hospital.
He had scoffed then, thinking she was just
trying to earn his pity… but in truth, she had
been seriously ill.
He hesitated at the third video.
His fingers tightened around the mouse.
After a pause, he clicked.
Two women appeared on screen, locked in a
confrontation.
10:06 AM Mon 23 Jun

He watched Leah collapse, deliberately
throwing herself down. Without a second
thought, he ran to catch her and kicked his
wife aside.
Cecilia hadn’t done a thing.
All she wanted was to retrieve his portrait.

But he hadn’t seen her sincerity. He hadn’t
believed her. And he had crushed her heart in
the cruelest way.
Then he noticed the fragments scattered

across the floor, and his chest tightened
instantly.
He remembered. It had been a pregnancy
report.
Could she really be…?
“Where is it? That report?” he snapped.
The housekeeper barely breathed. “I’m not
sure… I think Madam took it with her…”
Logan kicked him hard in the leg. “Useless!

What the hell do I pay you for? You let her
clean up the house by herself?!”
Frustrated, he paced the study twice, then
grabbed his phone.
“Find out which hospital she went to. What
tests did she do? I want the results, fast!”

The assistant agreed without hesitation. Just
then, Leah, tired of waiting, came looking for
him.
She flung herself into his arms. “Logan, that

this just to hurt me!”

But the moment he saw her, all he could think
of were the three videos.
Every wound his wife had suffered, all of it
pointed back to Leah.
She had been the one to push his wife out
again and again.
Leah sobbed and whimpered, her voice
trembling. “Logan, she made Mom and Dad

misunderstand me. Only you can help me now! Say something!”
Logan didn’t spare her a glance. Instead, he
turned to the housekeeper. “Why are you just
standing there? Can’t you see Miss Leah is
hurt? Take her to get treated. Make sure she’s
well looked after.”
Those words rang out, cold, sharp, and
deliberate.
The housekeeper paused for a beat, then
quickly moved to support Leah.

She hadn’t expected him to be this cold.
Before, even the tiniest scrape on her skin
would have him fussing over her, blowing
gently, applying ointment himself.
Now, he handed her over to a servant?

She flared up. “Logan! My parents don’t
believe me, and now you don’t even care?! All
I did was ruin a few of that bitch Cecilia’s
paintings, and this is how you treat me?!”
“You have to avenge me! Did you hear me?
Help me get revenge!”
10:06 AM Mon 23 Jun

Logan’s hand came down without warning.
Blood welled up again from the gash on her
cheek.
His expression was ice, eyes glinting with a
strange flicker of excitement. “Paintings.
Right. Thanks for reminding me of those
paintings.”
“Keep a close eye on her. When Cecilia
comes back, we’ll return them to her with
interest.”
