Eliana had worked hard to be here today because she didn’t want things to stray too far from her past life. She wanted to avoid the butterfly effect messing up the success of the project.

But after Logan stirred things up, Eliana was ready to walk away from working with Tobias.

If Tobias and Logan were so intertwined, even if she forced the contract through, she couldn’t trust Tobias to be truly committed.

Right now, Logan still didn’t believe Eliana could actually take over the Westridge project, so he wasn’t showing much

emotion.

But once he realized the project was really slipping out of his hands, he wouldn’t be playing it cool anymore.

The Eliot Group had already poured a ton of money into this project. Even if Logan himself was willing to write it off, the shareholders definitely wouldn’t.

If Logan could interfere, he definitely would, and things would just get a whole lot messier.

Thinking it over, Eliana didn’t even bother heading back to the private room for Tobias. She just turned and walked out.

Meanwhile, Logan stood in the private room for a long time, still reeling from what had just happened. The way Eliana had spoken so confidently made his unease grow stronger.

It wasn’t until someone knocked on the door that Logan finally snapped back to himself. He went to the door and opened it.

Addy was waiting at the door, his eyes filled with concern. “Are you okay?”

Logan nodded. “I’m fine.” As he spoke, he headed out. “Let’s go, didn’t you mention dinner?”

“No rush,” Addy said, leaning casually against the wall and lighting a cigarette. He looked at Logan and asked, “Do you know why your wife came here?”

Logan’s brow furrowed slightly. “What’s she doing here with Tobias?”

Addy looked up at Logan, but didn’t say a word.

But soon enough, Logan realized. “The Westridge project? She actually thinks she can take that over all by herself? What a pipe dream.”

“It’s not just a pipe dream anymore,” Addy said seriously. “Are you really that clueless? She’s already got a new investor.”

For the first time, Logan’s face actually showed some real emotion.

Seeing he didn’t know, Addy didn’t hold back and said directly, “You know Nathan Turner, right? He’s getting ready to invest in the Westridge project.

“At yesterday’s charity gala, he showed up with your wife…” Addy continued, raising his brow. He couldn’t shake the feeling that something was just off about it.

After a pause, he went on, “Nathan took her all over to meet different suppliers. Those companies that went on strike because of you? They’re out of the picture now.

“They’ve already found replacement suppliers. The only reason she came to Tobias was because his patented products are hard to replace, but it looks like she’s ready to give up and find someone else.”

Logan’s face darkened with realization. No wonder Eliana had been so confident in standing up to him. She really did have

Logan was getting more and more frustrated. After his talk with Addy, he didn’t feel like sticking around anymore. He just said a quick goodbye to everyone and left.

On the way back, Logan couldn’t shake the unease. He called Andrew and told him to dig deeper into the relationship between Nathan and Eliana.

‘If they were just high school classmates, Nathan didn’t even finish school before heading overseas. No way they’d still be close after all these years, Logan thought. There had to be something he didn’t know.

Logan was dead sure Eliana couldn’t pull off the Westridge project, and just as convinced that nobody in Ockgend would ever openly challenge him.

So when Eliana started demanding a divorce and insisting he give back the land, he signed the papers without a second thought. He thought everything was under control, but now reality was completely derailing.

The thought of how much money and effort he had invested in that land made Logan slam his fist into the car door.

If Eliana really went through with the divorce, and the project ended up with Lyons Group and Nathan, not only would he lose money, but it would also feel like he’d done all the work just to let someone else reap the rewards.

Logan was already on edge, but when he walked into his messy house, he just couldn’t hold back his frustration anymore.
