I listen to mom and dad speaking to Logan about their plans to go abroad and taking me with them. .
Mom is not happy with the war that is going on between the Daniels and whoever else the elder Mr. Daniels is involved with.
"I've made up my mind Logan and I spoke to your father about it and he has agreed,. Jamie and I will leave and remain in Milan until the baby is born or this war between your grandfather. Jerome can go with us, and it is final." mom says firmly to dad and Logan, who both remain silent or they have fallen asleep.
When neither of them responded, mom continues angrily, "does the fact that you are silent mean that you agree with me or are you trying to fight me on my decision?" Mom's tone of voice gets louder.
'Mom, I.. I don't know. I just can't agree to that. I'm sorry, I just can't send Jamie away like that." I heard Logan trying to explain how he feels about me leaving for another country.
I heard mom huff, ""talk to him" mom, says and I know that she is speaking to dad.
After hearing a deep sigh, "Logan you heard you mother." Dad said and if I wasn't pretending to be asleep, I would burst out laughing.
"Really?" Mom asked angrily, before I heard feet stomping off.
"She's afraid you know" dad tells Logan.
"Yes, I know and I am too, but dad, I can't send my wife away. I have found another way for her to be safe until all of this is over." Logan says and I am intrigued
I heard a deep breath, "what's that?" dad asked.
Logan was silent for a while and I wondered what he was thinking but I can't very well ask him.
"Her grandparents." Logan says to dad and I am shocked! Grandparents? What the f*** is Logan talking about?
There is silence and dad didn't question Logan, so like me he was just waiting for him to continue.
"Jamie's mother parents, Mr. and Mrs. Phillips. I honestly believe that they love her and I also believe they could keep her safe, I just have to find a place for them to go, but I am not sending my wife to another country." Logan sounds determined but all I can think about is, my grandparents? How does Logan know about them? Did he have them investigated?
"Have you spoken to them about it?" dad, asks slowly, sounding cautious.
"No, I haven't, at least not about sending Jamie to stay with them, but I spoke to Mr. Phillips today and he told me who he is to Jamie and what happened in the past." Logan said and I spun around, pushing to sit up furiously.
"What?" I screamed at Logan, who turned to stare at me, his expression bland.
Raising an eyebrow, I realize Logan was playing me because he knew that I was awake all along.
Chuckling, dad glances between the both of us, "you knew she was awake?" dad asks Logan.
Shrugging, "I know that Jamie would wake up once I am here, so" he finishes, standing to help me sit up.
I lifted questioning eyes to him, "my grandparents?" I asked frowning, "why didn't you tell me?" Wrapping the blanket around me, shaking my head, "I knew but," I shoved his arm. "You made them leave, when I was getting to know them." I moved my legs to get up, but Logan held me down.
Instead he lifted a plate, placing it in my hands, "I kept some of my dinner for you" he says.
"Is that all?" I stare, at the half empty plate. "I can get something, you need to eat your meal." I tried to stand again, but again I failed.
Giving the plate back to me, "eat" Logan insisted in a commanding tone.
I started eating the cold meatballs and spaghetti, screwing my face in disgust, because I hate cold food.
Turing to dad, because I am still curious about today and what happened to Jessica.
"How's everyone at the mansion?" I asked dad.
Sighing, he shakes his head, "they are presently booked into a hotel. Dad booked an entire suite for himself and the Lawrences and Jessica." Dad updates me on their wellbeing.
I need to know and the only way to find out is to ask, "what about Jessica.?" I asked, causing dad to turn to Logan.
Laughing softly, "You guys would not believe what Jessica suggested and I believe that she will go through with it.
Intrigued, I hand Logan the empty plate and look anxiously to dad.
"Jessica is trying to find the owner of this place to either rent it or purchase it." dad explains and I frown because I own it together with my grandparents and I do not want them involved with Jessica or Mr. Daniels.
Scared now for the Phillips, "please don't let them get to the Phillips" I asked Logan, looking at dad and him.
Putting an arm around my shoulder, "I won't" Logan promises, but he seems worried.
"What is it?" Dad asks him, also concern.
Staring at me "Jessica knows that this place was sold, do you think she remembers the location?" Logan wonders out loud. "Why does Jessica want this place?" Logan continue to question himself because I can offer no explanation, since I only recently how out that I am the sole owner.
I turn to dad, "what is keeping you back from destroying your father's empire for good?" I asked because I'm totally fed up of this life.
"We can get rid of them tonight, but whatever he has dragged Logan into will still be out there and whatever he promise them, they will still be expected to pay.
Exhausted I stood up, " then stop playing games with him and find out who he's associated with and what they want from Logan. " I demanded , walking off.
