“Hope, this is Paul, my secretary,” Logan introduced her to Paul.
They both had a friendly handshake. “I'm also the friend of your husband. You won't mind if | call you by your
name, right?” Paul humbly said.
“Not at all. | thought Logan didn’t have any friends,” Hope said and glanced at Logan.
“Did you tell
your wife that you've no friend?” Paul queried him.
“I think we should leave,” Logan avoided that question and opened the door for Hope of his car.
“Hope, I'm the only friend who knows a lot about Logan. You can askwhatever you wish to learn about him,”
Paul opined. Hope nodded at him and they both glared at Logan.
“It’s not good to lie,” Hope said.
“Yeah. How could you lie about not having a friend?” Paul inquired him.
Logan gritted his teeth at Paul and asked him to shut his mouth. “She wanted to know my childhood friend. We
becfriends in university,” he explained. Logan didn’t like. Hope's accusatory gaze at him.
“We shall leave. I'm hungry,” Logan said and gently pushed Hope into the passanger seat. As he closed his door,
he told Paul not to open his mouth.
“You think I'll spill out your secrets,” Paul arched his eyebrows at him. “Dude, | won't be telling anything to Hope
that may make you feel low. But you cannot stopfrom telling her about your university days. She should
know how popular her husband was!” He smirked and quickly got into the backseat.
Logan shook his head. Bringing Paul was a bad idea and now, he was accompanying them. He went to the
driver's seat of his car and drove it out of the parking lot.
He applied the brakes on the car outside a restaurant and asked the two of them to step out. Paul told Hope they
should go in since Logan would take tto park the car.
“Okay.” Hope walked inside the restaurant with him and they settled around the table, which Logan had already
booked in the morning.
“Is everything going well between you two? | know about the deal he made you sign,” Paul said as he placed the
glass after sipping water.

“Oh, you know. Logan said he likedand today, what he said clearly depicted that he

has moved forward a little.” Hope smiled as she was happy because of this sligin progress in Logan.
“Even | was surprised when he said that,” Paul stated. “But you must have something special that he said that
for you. No woman could charm him after Olivia. You have becthe exception.” he proclaimed.
Hope's heart overjoyed to hear that. “I don’t know what his relationship with Olivia was but | truly want to have a
family with him. Since you know about the deal, you also must be aware that he wanted a child from me.” Hope
asserted.
“Yeah, | am aware. | had an argument with him over this. But you see, Logan isn’t that kind of man, who will
force you. He ended up putting such a clause because of his grandfather, who wants an heir from him.” Paul
explained to her.
Hope nodded at him. “I understand that. Logan treatsso well. | had heard strange rumors about the Lycan
Prince, but he turned up to be the most caring man. All my life. | was abused and crushed. Logan held me,
punished those who hurt me, so this | must do for him. If he needs a child, I'll give him that too. Also, I'll make
sure he becomes happy again,” she proclaimed.
Loadmired Hope's positive response toward her relationship with Logan. “I'm sure
Logan will
will open to you slowly. He has already made a lot of improvement, he stated. with a smile. He sensed Logan's
coming and held the menu in his hand.
“You shall choose what should we have for lunch.” Paul handed her the menu. Logan pulled out the chair for him
when his eyes fell on the group of four college-goers men. who had their eyes on Hope's legs. He took off his
blazer and then, covered her legs. with it after giving a sharp glare at those men.
Hope gazed at him while Logan took a seat beside her. “Did you decide what to eat?” he inquired her.
“No. It's confusing,” Hope replied.
Logan took the menu from her and asked Paul if he had certain choice for lunch.
“No. Just order what you like,” Paul stated.
Logan hummed and told the order to the waiter. Wine was excluded since Logan had to drive after lunch.
“Your husband was a hot dude back in the university days. Paul suddenly made the atmosphere more lively by
opening up the conversation.
“Well, | cannot deny with that, Hope affirmed.

Chapter 41
“He used to get many love letters,” Paul stated..
Logan chuckled and asked him not to exaggerate. “It wasn’t daily,” he muttered.
“But most of the days of the month, you'll get them,” Pual stated. “Even seniors were crazy for Logan. Every guy
was envious of him,” he asserted. “But them most wanted to get close to him because of his status,” he added.
“But wasn’t Logan in a relationship that time?” Hope queried and looked at both of them.
The smile from Paul's face disappeared and he turned quiet, not understanding what to say further.
“I was not a type to announce about it,” Logan asserted.
“Oh. Did Olivia study in the suniversity as yours?” Hope asked.
“Let’s not talk about her,” Logan said. The waiter brought the food trolley and served them the meals. Hope
began cutting the steaks when Logan took the plate and cut it for her.
Paul felt that Hope was desperate to know about Olivia, but Logan was adamant of not telling anything about
her. Now, they shared a bond where Logan needed to open, but he was still hesitant to it.
“Eat,” Logan said as he placed the plate in front of Hope after cutting the steaks. “There’s no use to talk about a
dead person. It only brings memories of that person,” he asserted.
“I'm sorry,” Hope promptly apologized as she realized the discomfort she had put Logan in.
“It’s fine. | know you are curious about the woman | cherished a lot once. But as | have said before too, you've
becmy present,” Logan proclaimed.
Paul smiled a little to hear a mature response from Logan. “Hope, let's have icecream in desserts after finishing
our meals,” he suggested.
“Sure. | love chocolate one,” Hope stated with a smile.
From the floor above them, Henry looked at them. “Logan seems to be in love with Hope. Did Daniel say the
truth?” he murmured while keeping his hands inside his pockets. He still had to gather the real evidence which
stated that Logan and Hope had a contract marriage.

“Baby, what are you doing here?” A blonde woman wrapped her arms around Henry. She wondered whom Henry
staring at.
Chapter 11
“Let go of your hands from me,” Henry stated sternly.
The blonde woman did so and he turned to face her. Putting sgood amount in her hands, Henry said, “Don’t
ever showyour face. Now, leave.”
“Are you-"
“We never dated. You know this well” Henry pronounced with a cold tone. “You don’t have to return such
expensive gifts | gave you. Keep them as the service you provided to me,” he asserted.
The blonde woman clenched her fists, but she didn’t say anything to him. There was nothing she could say to
him since she was aware of Henry's high status. Silently, she left Henry's sight..
On the other hand, Logan felt Henry's presence and wandered his eyes around. He saw him at the floor above
them and squinted his eyes. “What is he doing here?’ he thought and quickly averted his gaze from Henry.
He finished the meals silently along with the others before moving to icecream
desserts. Hope and Paul kept conversing with each other, smiling and laughing together while Logan was just
silent.
He noticed the chocolate on the side of Hope's lips and brushed it using his thumb.
“What is it?” Hope asked and saw him licking the chocolate from his thumb. She stopped blinking for a moment.
Paul got an urgent call and he had to excuse himself after finishing the icecream asap.
Hope blinked finally when she saw Logan engrossed eating the icecream from the bowl in front of him. As Paul
left, a silence surrounded them.
“Olivia used to be in strade as me. But that was all in the past. Recalling and talking about those memories
won't bring any good to both of us,” Logan suddenly said, thus bringing her attention to him.
Both their eyes were now on each other.
Logan spotted the few hair strands resting on Hope's check and he brushed them away. “You are blushing,” he
said with a heart fluttering smile at her.
