Logan's face instantly went rigid.
The recording kept playing.
Danielle: "I heard you have a PhD. I'm shocked you'd settle for a loveless marriage."
Sloane: "If it were any other guy, maybe I couldn't accept it. But it's Logan Lennox. Based purely on his physical appearance, I'm more than satisfied. Not to mention, he's an elite soldier."
Danielle: "So you're just obsessed with his body. You're no different from those desperate women drooling over hot guys on social media."
Sloane: "You're absolutely right. I'm not on some higher moral ground. Staring at a gorgeous man puts me in a good mood. Why wouldn't I enjoy it?"
After the recording ended, Logan stared at Danielle with icy eyes.
His voice was colder than she had ever heard it. "Why the hell did you go bother her?"
Danielle crossed her arms. "I just went for a physical checkup and happened to ask her a few questions."
Logan let out a harsh laugh. "How are you any different from those gossiping old women in the cafeteria?"
Danielle stepped directly into his path.
"Logan, the rest of your life is a long time. Are you really willing to spend it with a woman who doesn't love you and is only obsessed with your body? Does that sit right with you?"
Logan smirked with total confidence, glancing toward the hospital. "What's wrong with being obsessed with my body? If she enjoys the view, I'd happily strip naked for her every single night."
"You... Logan, you're a complete jerk!"
Furious, Danielle ground her teeth, spun on her heel, and stormed off.
Leo happened to be walking over and saw Danielle stomping away in a blind rage. He instantly knew the boss had said something infuriating again.
However, as he approached to greet Logan, he noticed the dangerously dark expression on his Captain's face.
Leo smartly did a 180 and walked away.

Sloane picked up the phone. It was Logan.
"Are you coming home tonight?"
