I watched Logan as he toyed with an apple, grinning at me, "So, how are you planning on dealing with him?"
I sank deeper into the couch, glancing at the grand chandelier hanging in the living room. "No rush. I haven't quite landed on the right scheme yet. But it’s gotta be fitting for his style."
With a wicked smile, Logan leaned in conspiratorially, "I've got a killer idea."
I sat up straight, eager, "What is it?"
He chuckled, gestured me closer with his finger, and whispered his plan in my ear.
After hearing it, I stared at him in disbelief and asked, "You serious?"
"Absolutely," he said, tossing the apple in the air, grinning.
"That’s it. We’ll go with your plan," I smirked, feeling this was a good idea.
Just then, Hannah's phone rang. She quickly answered, "Hello? Okay, let’s meet tomorrow at 1 PM. Got it."
After hanging up, she turned to me, "Allie, I gotta step out. Jaylan’s causing a scene at the villa, blocking the agent viewing."
I stood up immediately, "He's got some nerve, playing the tough guy."
Hannah scoffed, "Looks like he’s got nowhere else to go. Never saw him this clingy to the house before the divorce. Now he can’t seem to stay away."
"Let's go then, and I’ll come with you," I said.
Ronan strode over, "What's up?"
I explained, "Jaylan's at the villa. I need to swing by. Plus, I've got a few questions for him. Don't worry, and I'll be back soon."
I made the situation clear to him.
