REBORN AGAIN:- Master's Darling Wife

Chapter 40:- HER MALICIOUSNESS

     Logan walked into her ward still shocked by the information he learnt about. 'Who are you?' he questioned himself internally as he stroke her white hair.
     Evelyn's eyebrow furrowed and she opened her eyes for the second time.
     Her head pounded like it was being worked on by a carpenter. She groaned in discomfort attracting the attention of the handsome man that sat at the edge of the window.
     "Don't move around too much your wound would open" he scolded helping her up. He handed her a bottle of mineral water and she took few sips.
     Evelyn stared at the window and her eyes widened in disbelief. It was already evening. Her little apprentice must be so furious he had cursed her.
     "My phone"she told Logan who got it for her. She immediately opened it and there were a 100 missed calls and 60 unread messages from him.
     She dailed his number back and she could feel an headache coming on.
     "Boss! You're evil. How could you make me wait the whole morning and afternoon for you" he immediately whined the moment the call was connected. His voice was loud making her frown in slight discomfort.
     "Shut up you make a lot of noise. I'm in a tight situation let's set a new date" she told him in a firm voice and he grumbled before picking next week.
     "Who was that?" Logan asked as he peeled an apple with all the kingly elegance his body can hold. 'Does cutting an apple require such air of elegance?' she mocked him in her heart.
     "How is it any of your business?"she replied. She was angry about what happened in the morning.
     "Why not go accompany the fragile young miss of yours. Why are you here?"she asked him sacarsm dripping in her voice but he ignored her, his focus on the apple in his hands.
     "Hmph, you're a despicable human being. You called me a business associate. How I wish I could beat and scold you to...."she wanted to continue cursing at him but he stuffed a slice of apple in her mouth.
     "Eat up you talk too much" he scolded her and gave her the whole plate to munch on.
     "Sawyer is on his way with food , manage this till he's here. I'm going out, I'll be back in a while"and he just walked out on her leaving her stunned and a bit angry. She was sure he was going to see Clara and she couldn't stop him nor blame him, he is indeed indebted to her.
             ****
     Clara sat in her bed fuming with anger. Logan hadn't shown up since he heard that that bitch from the Stone family had fainted.
     She was so angry her teeth itched. What qualifications does she have to compare with her and try to steal Logan away?. She would make her pay, she would wish she was dead. If only she knew she had died once.
     As she was fuming, Logan stepped into her room and her face immediately changed.
     "Brother Logan you're finally here. I've been waiting patiently for you for a while now, how's she?"she asked with a sweet smile hiding the disgust in her voice as she mentioned Evelyn's name.
     "You don't need to worry about her, she's fine" he replied clearly not wanting to speak about her.
     "I can't help but think she's more than a business associate if not Brother Logan wouldn't have sat there with her,fed her and apple he cut by himself and be indirectly protecting her" she pointed out making him a bit stunned.
     He wanted to ask himself why he did that but no matter how many times he questioned his decisions regarding her, he couldn't get a clear answer.
     "It's fine I trust Brother Logan is an upright man and wouldn't do anything to hurt me" she reminded him indirectly and he replied with a hmmmm.
             ****
     Sawyer had arrived and began to dish her meal but she didn't have much of an appetite and instead felt nauseated.
     "Sawyer open the window for me" she said but soon regretted it. Her room was opposite Clara's room and she could see her sweet smile but not Logan's expression but judging from her smile they seemed to be having a good time and her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.
     "Miss Stone is everything alright?" Sawyer asked a bit worried. Logan had asked him to take care of her in his absence if she felt uncomfortable the slightest, he would be crucified by Logan.
     "Nothing can I take a walk?"she asked and her reply was a flat no.
     Feeling a bit angry she picked up Logan's computer and told Sawyer to excuse her, the later reluctantly left after closing her window .
     She opened the laptop and began typing away. She popped a lollipop in her mouth, while playing a game.
     She wasn't only the journalist God or an hacking God but she was also a gaming god who dominated the game realm.
     As she typed mindlessly, she played 5 matches but no sign of Logan. Feeling annoyed she decided to contact Smoke and vent all her anger on him.
     "Hello" a gruffy male voice answered. "Hello Smoke I'll go straight to the point. I have a job for you. Your last employer, I need you to do some specific things to her and I'll pay you 5 million dollars" she said straight away.
     "Who are you?"he couldn't help but ask fearfully. Why did she sound like that little girl from a few days that beat him up till he landed in the ICU.
     "Don't tell me you've forgotten me. The white haired girl" she said teasingly.
     "Boss! I dare not forget you. Whatever you need me for, Smoke is at your service" he replied bowing down in his room like she was before him.
     "Good disciple, I need a favour from you. Listen carefully " she said.
     By the time she was done talking, Smoke shuddered involuntarily. He felt cold all over like he was held at gunpoint.
    This young lady was outright terrifying and malicious. His assignment was outrageous and if he does it, Laura Scott might commit suicide eventually.
     It'll take up to 3 months to get the job done and the job would require him to perform a wicked act but he had no choice.
    His boss is malicious!
