Who Knew My Assigned Mechanic Husband Was a Big Shot? novel Chapter 223

"Logan, I need a word with you."

Out on the training field, Miles stepped up beside Logan.

Logan's gaze was still lingering on Danielle's lonely, defeated figure nearby.

Assuming Miles was here to stir up more trouble regarding Sloane, Logan replied coldly, "We have nothing to talk about."

He was just an unthreatening rival!

Miles stared him down. "Logan, don't you want to know what kind of mission Danielle actually went on eight months ago?"

Logan's expression hardened. "If it's classified, then it's none of my business."

Miles scoffed bitterly. "A woman who loved you that deeply suddenly dumps you to take a deployment overseas, and you didn't think something was off? Do you honestly believe someone's heart just changes overnight?"

Logan narrowed his eyes. "Since when did you become a relationship expert? Have you ever even dated anyone?"

"Maybe I haven't," Miles shot back, "but Logan, you owe Danielle more than you could ever repay!"

A sharp, invisible thorn twisted deep in Logan's chest.

When Danielle had ruthlessly ended things between them, he had been utterly baffled. Could a mere commendation really be enough to shatter their relationship?

He had practically begged her. "You're throwing us away over a single training course? A chance at a promotion? Are you planning to never come back? Can't we just overcome the distance together? I'll wait for you, Danielle."

But she had been immovable, even announcing it in public: "Logan, we have no future together. Just let me go."

Shortly after, Logan was wounded in action. Danielle hadn't left yet.
