Back at the hospital in Logan’s room, logan was standing by the window down as the nurse from earlier stood behind him with huge cash in her hands as a sister simple appeared on her face.
“You did a good job and now I still have work for you, come back tomorrow morning for further instructions”Logan said in a deep time and the nurse nodded and left immediately and Logan stood there just as the door opened and a tall elderly man in brown suit walked in and noticing his presence, logan turned around and frowned.
“I see you are still trying your best huh”the bald man said and without saying anything logan with speed wrapped his hand around his flabby neck and slammed him against the wall and the man gasped for air.
“You are failing me Crawford, I gave you strict information to ruin his factory and you failed me!”logan yelled as he tightened his grip in the man such that he felt like his head was going to be separated from his body if he continued.
“L… wait… let…”the man tried to say and logan let go of him as he gasped for air to fill his lungs and coughed a little while massaging his neck which was hurting.
“Talk, he already found out about Allen, Clark and Harris, so what more should be done when you failed miserably”Logan was angry as he spoke, nothing but venom was in his eyes, he was fade up with his plans flopping each time. He teamed up with Canada’s wealthiest business tycoon, the shrewd man who owned 90% of the most well known casinos in Oakville. Crawford didn’t get his wealth by good means but he tricked small companies as well as big companies by ruining them then propose a business deal which one would have no choice than to except then he would get all the shares that was why he had him target Emiliano and used Emiliano’s top executive workers to do the deed since they were not happy with Emiliano taking over the company hence it was easy to use them but Logan was furious because his planned failed and Emiliano found out about everything.
“We still have the upper hand because I’m sure he doesn’t know about us and as long as emiliano is kept in the dark we could still ruin him”after catching his breath Crawford said to logan who calmed down a little but frowned.
“And how do you expect we do that, that damn loser already fired my men from his company and I can’t do anything if I don’t have inside help”logan remarked and the bald man let out a sarcastic chuckle as he walked to logan and fixed his hospital clothes he was wearing and patted him on his shoulders.
“Leave that to me Logan, Emiliano has a weakness and we all know what that is… all it will take to end him is a beautiful woman”crawford said with a sly smile and logan realizing what he meant smirked and nodded in satisfaction, yes emiliano was a Casanova who chased around women and never resisted a beautiful woman therefore using a woman to ruin him was no so bad. Amd that way he would kill two birds with one stone because for starters Emiliano’s company would be ruined and Sia would leave him forever.
“Do what you have to do then”Logan agreed and Crawford smirked.

After a silent ride home the couple arrived at their mansion and to Sia’s surprise she got a call from Carmen saying that Diego was going to stay with them for a while since the old lady wanted him around. Sia didn’t object about it and even though she wasn’t used to staying without her son she agreed knowing full well Emiliano’s family were done if Diego and actually speaking of Emiliano the man was still in their room while after she showered wen to the kitchen to prepare something for him hoping he would eat.
“Madam, do you need anything?”Lulu asked as she finished washing the dirty dishes.
“Not really and please Lulu don’t call me madam, I’m 21 not 50 as it is you can just call me sis”sia turned to her and said but Lucia nervous shook her head in denial and lowered her gaze to the floor.
“You are my boss so no”she was younger than Sia by a year but still Sia was her boss and she was just a servant on a low status. Sia didn’t argue more with her but finished up with her food preparation, she was getting a hang of it little by little and knew with practice she would know how to cook.
“I’ll spoil him today, maybe he won’t be angry”She said out loud as she made her way upstairs to the room with a tray of food and once she reached there she pushed the door open and found the man busy with his files and eyes fixed on the laptop screen. Sia exhaled deeply and walked in and set the tray on the table and nervous looked up at him as she thought about what to do or say to the man, she glanced at the bed and back to where he was sitting and swallowed dry air.
“C… could you spare a few minutes to eat something?”she asked with doubt and closed her eyes as she waited for him to tell her things but when she peeked at him with one eye she found him putting away his laptop which was on his laps and shoved the files on another sofa.
“Okay”he replied and Sia with delight nodded and served him the food, she was relieved and happy, she sat there watching him as he ate the food she prepared and again she was confused, it wasn’t a secret to her that the food she made for him was not nice however why didn’t he say anything every time he would eat and finish everything without saying anything bad about he horrible cooking.
“T… tell me do… do you really like the food?”she asked without looking at him and emiliano posed and looked up at her with a blank expression.
“Yeah why not”he simply said and got back to eating, Sia wasn’t convinced.
“Tell the truth, I’m a bad cook just say it… the food I make is horrible you don’t have to pretend okay”she said with both anger and sobs as tears nearly fell but she pushed them back and walked to the bed and sat down, she had no idea why she was feeling emotional lately. Emiliano stopped what he was doing and sighed.
“When did I say I pretend huh, I love the food you make… as long as my wife makes the food for me I would gladly eat it”she heard him say and when she looked up she saw him standing before her.
“I only went there as a friend nothing more… as long as I’m married to you I will remain loyal you don’t have to worry about anything”she got to her feet and said in a soft low voice.
“I don’t like it when he looks at you, I hate it when you show him love and care… I’ll get rid of him if he ever thinks of taking what’s mine from me”his voice carried so much anger and hate that Sia looked at him with blinking and thought back to what Logan had said to him.
“Why?”she voiced out her question looking straight in his eyes and Emiliano’s gaze softened.
“First give me something that would guarantee you won’t go running to him like you did today”this time he reached for her shoulders and lowered his head and murmured.
“I told you already and I won’t go back on my words… why can’t you understand”sia was no frustrated with him not getting her point clearly he was acting weird and making assumptions over a small issue which they would just talk it out but here he was acting like a jealous husband.
“Show me”Emiliano whispered and immediately the two words left his mouth and echoed in Sia’s ears sending a strange shiver in her body. She moved closer to him and pulled him in a kiss, shocking Emiliano as her hands wrapped around his neck as she deepened the kiss.
