Simon Clark was the first to board the yacht, with Zach closely following behind.
Logan squinted slightly as he followed the two onto the yacht.
As soon as he stepped on board, Logan was stopped by a burly man in black.
"Sir, I need to check if you're carrying any dangerous items."
Zach was already ahead, being searched by another burly man, looking like he was taking it all in stride.
However, Logan frowned and said, "I was invited here to have fun, is this how you treat your guests?"
"This is just a standard procedure for the safety of everyone on the yacht."
The burly man in black stared at Logan with unyielding eyes.
"Heh, in that case, I'm not interested in playing anymore." Logan turned to leave.
But the bodyguard moved, blocking Logan's way.
"What's this? You won't even let me leave?"
Logan's face turned cold.
"Sir, if you're not carrying any dangerous items, just let me search you. This is Young Master Clark's private yacht. Since you're here to have fun, please cooperate and give our young master some face."
So this yacht belonged to Simon Clark, meaning these men were Simon Clark's private bodyguards as well.
Logan chuckled, casting a cold glance at Simon Clark, who was standing a few meters away watching the scene unfold.
"And who the hell is he that I should give him face? Do I even know him?"
"You!"
The black-clad bodyguard's eyes widened, and a powerful aura emanated from him, pressing down on Logan.
At this moment, the yacht had already left the dock.
Logan frowned.
"What? Planning to use force in broad daylight?!"
It was only then that Simon Clark stepped forward, speaking ambiguously:
"Hodor, this is my half-brother, how could you be so blind?"
Brother?!
Logan was Simon Clark's brother?!
Everyone looked at Logan in shock.
The bodyguards' expressions were a mix of shock, disdain, and contempt.
The most surprised was Zach. He had known Logan for so many years, but he never knew that Logan had this connection with the richest man in Harbor City.
However, to Logan, this was nothing but an insult.
His mother had married the man who killed his father.
Brother? This was the first time in their lives that they had met.
Simon Clark was simply using these words to humiliate him.
Logan gritted his teeth, controlling his urge to kill.
He forced himself to stay calm. To Simon Clark, he was just an insignificant ant. In his previous life, Simon Clark had never even met him before the apocalypse.
This sudden approach must have a purpose.
He couldn't let anger expose his intentions.
Logan looked at Simon Clark with confusion:
"What are you talking about? I don't even know you."
Simon Clark feigned a sudden realization and pointed at Logan:
"Oh right, you weren't there on the day your mom married my dad. Let me introduce myself. I'm Simon Clark, your mother's stepson. She's a good mother, treats me better than her own son."
Logan clenched his fists.
The bodyguard named Hodor stood in front of Simon Clark, ready to take down Logan at any moment.
Logan tightened his fists and then relaxed them, lowering his gaze to hide the murderous intent in his eyes. He forced a bright smile onto his face.
"Oh? Is that so? It seems you really enjoy being someone's son."
Simon Clark's face immediately darkened, his eyes filled with brutality.
"What did you say? Say it again?"
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Zach hurriedly tried to mediate:
"Hahaha, aren't we here to have fun? Let's enjoy ourselves. Look, the ocean is beautiful today."
Zach wasn't trying to smooth things over for Logan's sake. The truth was, the atmosphere on the yacht was a bit strange. Besides Logan and Zach, there were Simon Clark and eight burly men in black, all of whom were now glaring at the two of them.
This was not a good sign.
Simon Clark reined in his rage, plastering a cold smile on his face as he turned and went into the cabin.
The rest of the black-clad men followed him inside.
Only Logan, Zach, and the bodyguard named Hodor were left on the deck.
"Mr. Logan, please allow me to search you."
Hodor requested again.
Zach lightly nudged Logan, whispering in his ear:
"Logan, a wise man knows when to back down. He's a wealthy young master; there's no shame in going along with him."
Logan shot him a cold glance, then opened his arms to the black-clad bodyguard:
"Go ahead, search."
Hodor gave Logan a disdainful look. After a thorough search, confirming that Logan was not carrying any dangerous items, he entered the cabin.
Inside the yacht's room, Simon Clark violently swept the last glass on the table onto the floor.
A bodyguard was cleaning up the shattered glass on the floor, even as his hand was cut by the glass, he continued cleaning with a frown.
Hodor entered the room and said:
"Young master, I've checked. He's not carrying anything. But that guy named Logan has been working out for a long time, so he might have some skills. Once we're in the water, I'll handle him."
Simon Clark slammed the table with his palm, his face full of viciousness:
"Just killing him would be too easy. How dare he mock me?! I want to make him regret ever coming into this world!"
A look of fear flashed across Hodor's eyes as if he recalled something unpleasant.
"Young master, we're still in the country," Hodor reminded him.
Simon Clark angrily pounded the table again, then coldly glared at Hodor.
"Get rid of the one who came with him too."
"Yes, sir."
...
Logan and Zach were on the deck, enjoying the ocean view, with attendants serving them drinks.
It wasn't long before Simon Clark came out as well, returning to his initial roguish demeanor, chatting and laughing with the two.
"We're going to a more remote spot for diving this time. I know a small island nearby, no one around, and the underwater scenery is beautiful. I guarantee you've never seen anything like it."
Simon Clark exaggeratedly described the beauty of the area.
Zach nodded repeatedly, looking excited:
"I'll leave everything to Young Master Clark, I'm up for anything."
Logan didn't object either.
About two hours later, the yacht arrived near a deserted island.
There were no other ships around, nor any sign of people.
The sunlight glittered on the light blue sea, and a few thousand meters ahead was a pristine beach, with lush green forests on the island, creating a truly beautiful scene.
A bodyguard informed them that the diving gear was ready and led them to the other end of the yacht.
When the three arrived, Hodor had already donned his gear.
Simon Clark immediately picked up a diving suit and began putting it on.
Hodor threw the other two suits in front of Logan and Zach.
Zach looked at Hodor and rubbed his hands nervously.
"I've never dived before. Maybe I should just stay out of the water?"
Logan glanced at Zach in surprise.
"Hodor is an expert diver. He can protect us underwater. We agreed to dive together, so are you going to disrespect me, Simon Clark?"
Simon Clark frowned at Zach.
Zach quickly waved his hands, turning to see that Logan had already picked up a diving suit, so he had no choice but to put one on as well.
As the two finished gearing up, Simon Clark turned around, his eyes flashing with mockery and malice.
