Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 188

Chapter 188: He Truly Loves You

The call was quickly answered by Logan’s legal team. "Mr. Reid, how can we assist you?"

Selina’s eyelid twitched. Wait a minute... why was he calling his lawyers? Was he planning to sue her for extortion?

Then she heard Logan’s leisurely voice. "How long would it take to transfer all my assets to Mrs. Reid?"

The lawyer on the other end: "..."

There was a noticeable pause. "Sir, are you sure?"

"Very sure." Logan lightly tapped his fingers against the table. "Draft the paperwork."

Still baffled, the lawyer hung up. Logan then looked up at Selina and said casually, "If I give Mrs. Reid all my assets, will that be enough to compensate for today’s losses?"

Selina’s heart skipped a beat.

Her mind screamed that this was just another one of his tricks, and she absolutely should not fall for it.

But her face betrayed her—flushing ever so slightly. "If it happens once, it’ll happen again. What if Angelica keeps flaunting herself in front of me?"

Logan’s lips curved into a smirk, a subtle hint of jealousy lacing the air. "Mrs. Reid, don’t worry. I’ve already issued a directive—she’s no longer allowed to use my name to show off."

Selina blinked, momentarily at a loss for words.

Logan tilted his head, his gaze playful. "I heard Mrs. Reid was planning to bring me lunch at the office today?"

"...Yeah," Selina responded absentmindedly, then suddenly paused. Wait—how did Logan know about that?

Logan chuckled softly. "So, do I still have that privilege now?"

Selina’s eyes glimmered with mischief. "You want me to visit the office?"

"Mrs. Reid holds a prestigious title. Naturally, she should visit the company more often."

"Alright then." She agreed instantly. "You head back first—I’ll be there soon."

Logan saw right through her scheming but chuckled in amusement. "Alright."

The moment he left, Selina hurried into the kitchen. "Vice President Wilson, mind if I borrow the kitchen for a bit?"

Half an hour later, Selina turned off the stove and took a small bite of her dish.

Yep. As always—consistently terrible.

She packed the food into containers, got into the car, and ordered, "Take me to Reid Group."

Upon arrival, Jack was already waiting downstairs. The moment he saw her, he stepped forward eagerly. "Madam, you’re here. Sir hasn’t eaten yet."

Selina took the executive elevator straight to Logan’s office. Without a word, she placed the dishes on the table.

"Mr. Reid, I brought you lunch. Enjoy."

Logan’s gaze fell upon the dishes.

A charred, unidentifiable mass... and a few over-fried shrimp.

Selina smirked slyly. "It may not look great, but it’s made with love. I assume Mr. Reid wouldn’t be so heartless as to reject it?"

Without a flicker of hesitation, Logan picked up his chopsticks and feigned curiosity. "Mrs. Reid made this herself?"

"Of course. Otherwise, wouldn’t I be an irresponsible wife? I should at least try to do my part, don’t you think?"

Logan knew she was still holding onto some resentment, and if eating a meal she cooked helped her vent, he was more than willing.

Besides, how could he possibly dislike something she made?

With an unreadable expression, he calmly ate, as if savoring a five-star meal instead of whatever monstrosity she had created.

By the time he finished an entire plate, Selina swallowed nervously.

She had tasted these dishes herself and knew just how inedible they were. Yet, Logan had eaten every bite with a straight face?

A man of his status could have the finest gourmet meals at his fingertips—why on earth was he torturing himself like this?

She cleared her throat. "Uh... are you full?"

Logan glanced up at her teasingly. "Not quite. Why?"
