Chapter 21
Hope left bewildered by Logan’s sudden pull off during their intimacy. The entire night she thought what
could be the sudden reason that he stopped in the midway and didn’t even come to see her in the living
room. With that she spent the entire night on the sofa and the next morning, they headed to the villa,
their house.
Even in the car, Logan was silent. Hope tried a lot of times that she could speak in front of him, but
seeing a strange expression on her face, she decided to remain quiet.
Well, this didn’t happen for one day, but till the day of their reception. Logan avoided talking much with
her. If she would come from college and see him, Logan would pass a small smile to her, but he
refrained from going into further conversation.
“Hope, look at yourself. How pretty you look in this dress! Master Logan surely has a great choice,”
Camila complimented her beauty. She noticed Hope’s arms were no longer bruised. It relieved her that
those marks had vanished completely.
Clad in a mermaid style white, off-shoulder gown, the dress truly accentuated Hope’s curves. Although
she couldn’t have a grand wedding, but the reception dress truly covered that. Logan indeed knew
what suited best on her.
Her hair was kept lose, with low curls at the bottom of her hair. The pearl clips were used to keep the
few hair strands on their place. She was given the real pearl jewelry to wear, which she already worn.
Logan stepped into the room, his urgency evident in the quick pace of his words as he addressed
Hope. “We’re running late. How much longer will you take to get ready?”
As Hope turned to meet his gaze, Logan was captivated by her ethereal beauty. She looked absolutely
breathtaking in that dress, as though it was tailored solely for her.
Despite the enchantment of the moment, Logan shook himself from the mesmerizing sight and made

eyelock between them.
Camila pushed Hope toward Logan and she began walking toward him. He held her hand and drew her
close. “I can walk by myself. You don’t need to hold my hand,” Hope said as she attempted to pull away
her hand from his grip.
“Stay quiet,” Logan said and his finger brushed her cheek. “There was an eyelash on your check,” he
added, looking into her eyes.
“Is everyone gathered already?” Hope queried.

“Yes,” Logan said and asked her to smile.
Hope forced a smile on her face and the two went out to the main garden of the hotel, where the
reception was kept. Hope got to meet a lot of people and even realized how luxurious their lives were.
Everything went well until a drink was dropped intentionally on her dress by Jessi.
“Oops! I’m so sorry, Hope. You should have walked carefully,” Jessi said with a grin and tried to help
Hope clean the stain..
“Oh my go d, Jess! Did you just stain Hope’s dress?” Natasha blurted out, trying to shoe sympathy
toward Hope. “It’s considered inauspicious if the dress is ruined in your wedding or reception,” Natasha
then remarked.
Logan, who was busy with a few of his friends from the business circle, noticed the discomfort in which
Hope was. He paid attention to her and found out her dress was
ruined.
He excused himself and went toward Hope.
“Is everything okay?” Logan asked and his eyes fell upon Hope’s dress. The stain had spread all over
and it looked bad. He even heard the gossip the guests were having about Hope. Taking off his tuxedo
blazer, he put it around Hope and said, “Let’s go.”
Hope glared at him as if she was angry at him. The look in her eyes wasn’t pleasant all. But could she
even complain to him? No! Because of that damm contract she needed to stay quiet like an obedient
wife.

The most annoying thing was that Logan suddenly showing care for her. She walked away on her own,
leaving the guests around with quizzical glances.
William also noticed something was going on between the two and furrowed his brows together.
Logan headed outside the magnificent hotel and asked Hope to stop. She was already on the stairs
and was running to reach the birthday. Once she was at the bottom of the flights, she took off her heels
and picked them up in her hand to easily run away.
“Why did you leave the reception suddenly? Do you even have idea how many eyes. were on us?”
Logan asked with a stern tone.
“Leave my hand,” Hope protested.
“I didn’t grab it to leave it. What happened?” Logan inquired, his voice turning calmer.

“Are you upset because the dress got ruined?” He loosened his grip from her hand and pulled the
blazer close for her. “Accidents happen, okay?” He wanted to make her feel better.
“Why are you like this? You ignored my presence after that night. Now, suddenly you care for me. Is
this way you are supposed to make me undergo heartbreak?” Hope finally questioned him.
“I didn’t ignore you, Hope,” Logan said.
“You did! Just admit it. You see, I’ve only you and I have kept all my faith in you,” Hope said, pressing
her pointer finger on his chest. “You know, that night I truly thought your want me your life. But the next
second, you changed. I truly admire how you do things for me but then you ignore me.”
Tears welled up her in eyes as she tried to stay calmer. But it was getting hard and suffocating for her.
“I think I will not love you and may throw you away from my life. That’s why I stopped. It becomes
harder to be around you. But I don’t wish to hurt you. Your future should stay safer, Logan explained
her why his behavior suddenly turned odd that night. “I told you getting love from me is going to be hard
for you. You need to be strong to make my heart win. I don’t know how many times I’ll do this.”
Logan didn’t want to keep her in dark. Olivia, his past lover, would always restrict him from getting close
to Hope even if he wanted to.
