The Divorced Heiress Is Entering a New Marriage

Chapter 0175

In the past, he would have asked Dylan to act as intermediary between him and the news outlet. Dylan was the only person that Logan trusted to handle this sort of thing.

Logan’s grandfather’s attorneys or those that worked for the company would undoubtedly handle the matter efficiently and quietly, but then word of Hazel would get back to his family. Logan wasn’t ready for them to know about her and their relationship just yet.

Sighing, Logan picked up the phone. He would have to take care of this all on his own. He hoped he didn’t botch it.

“Half an hour later, Logan finally ended the call. He’d given up way more money than he knew Dylan would

have, but at least the matter was resolved now. The editor of the news outlet accepted the money and the deal that they would keep the matter of Logan’s love life out of their articles… for now.

Logan knew that only meant the journalists would stalk him now. If the rumors were untrue, Logan wouldn’t have offered money. With blood in the water, the sharks would begin to circle.

Without Dylan, things felt more complicated.

Maybe Logan should call him and apologize…

No. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Hazel was Logan’s wife. Dylan was the one at fault for trying to pursue a romance with her. Especially after finding out that she and Logan were married.

Dylan had betrayed the rules of friendship.

Logan might have been guilty of a few things too, but mostly… it was Dylan. 1

Besides, Logan handled things okay. Even if Dylan would have made it easier.

Logan deleted the email with the article and continued on with the rest of his work for the day.

Since I had promised Logan to be more careful, I made sure to tell each of my friends that knew about my marriage to keep it under wraps. From now on, I’d have to limit the amount of information I told anyone.

So the only person I shared what happened with that day was Maria.

“They got your photo?” she asked. We sat in her bedroom, speaking softly with the door closed. It pained me, not being able to talk things out with my other friends too. I trusted them, but everything felt so fragile now. I couldn’t be responsible for Logan having to pay out even more money.

“They were in the courtroom,” I said. “They overheard the entire hearing.“.

“I suppose those things are public record. Gosh, it’s a good thing only one reporter was in that room.”

“Logan took care of it,” I said, though my nerves still felt raw.

“From now on, you are going to have to watch your back. No going out to eat, or anything like that.” Maria frowned a little. “How are you two going to date?”

I shrugged, a bit helplessly. Nothing about Logan and my relationship has been conventional. That seemed to be a trend that was bound to continue.

“I guess a lot of stay–at–home dates,” I said. The problem, of course, was that I still didn’t have my own place yet. That meant any dates would have to be at Logan’s place. I wasn’t sure how to smuggle myself over there without it being noticed.

Maria hummed thoughtfully, though I noticed now that she was a little distracted, tracing shapes on the comforter atop her bed.

I was being selfish again, prioritizing myself in the conversation. Maria clearly had her own problems. Well, I was done being a bad friend now.

“What’s going on with you?” I asked.

“Oh… it’s nothing…”

The way she trailed off meant it was more than nothing

“It’s not nothing.” I said. “Tell me what’s going on.”

She hesitated a moment or two more. Then she finally admitted, “One of the supervisors has been hitting on me at work.”
