The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne) novel Chapter 1184

Logan hastily ushered the interns out of the office, their words leaving him deep in thought.

Could Faye really have seen it?

To confirm his suspicions, Logan quickly shot Faye a message.

"How's your day going?"

The message seemed to disappear into the void, with no reply coming for a long time.

Maybe she's still sleeping?

Puzzled, Logan started his shift, checking his phone so often that even the doctor on duty with him couldn't resist teasing him.

"Dr. Logan, waiting for a message from your girlfriend?"

Logan looked up, meeting his colleague's teasing gaze. "With the way you've been glued to your phone, checking it every minute for the past half-hour, who else could it be but a girlfriend?"

Logan thought his colleague's guess wasn't far off but clarified anyway, "Not exactly a girlfriend, but I'm working on it."

The doctor, caught off guard by Logan's admission, wondered if he had a knack for guessing these things.

After his shift, Logan still hadn't received a message from Faye, even as he headed home.

Just when Logan began to worry something might have happened to her, a call from an unknown number came through. Intuition told him it had to do with Faye, so he answered immediately.

"Doreen's voice came through. "Is this Logan?"

"It's me." Logan recognized Doreen's voice instantly. "Is there something you need?"

"Oh, you with your formalities," Doreen laughed, glancing at Faye, who had been sulking all day on the couch. "I mentioned before about inviting you for dinner, right? We heard about the legal matter, and thank you so much for..."

Logan's mind raced, focusing solely on one thought: "Faye has seen the message!"

So that was why she hadn't replied?

It suddenly made sense.

"How about it, Logan? How about we meet at that diner not too far from you? Faye mentioned you might be off tomorrow?" Doreen browsed through her list of restaurants.

Snapping back to reality, Logan quickly responded, "Yes, I'm free tomorrow."

"Great, we'll see you there for dinner."
