Chapter 233: His Plan

Jacob paused at the door, his voice uncertain. "Logan?"

Selina immediately tried to push him away, but Logan held her tightly by the waist and gave her lips a sharp, punishing bite.

She whimpered, feeling like she might explode. _{fгeewebnovёl.com}

Logan responded lazily, "Mr. Carter, do us a favor and leave."

Jacob pressed, "Is Selina in there? I’m taking her with me."

Logan suddenly let out a soft laugh, full of meaning. "Mr. Carter, you must be very bored—interfering in matters between husband and wife?"

Silence fell on both sides of the door.

Selina nearly blacked out.

Does Logan have no shame?! Even if he didn’t, she still did!

She took several deep breaths, forcing herself to sound calm. "Mr. Carter, I’ll be out in just a moment. No need to worry."

Only then did Jacob give a slight nod. "Alright then. I’ll head back. Miss Clark, if you need anything, just call."

After a long pause, the sound outside disappeared. Selina’s legs gave out and she collapsed into Logan’s arms.

Logan looked down at her, cool and unbothered. "Mrs. Reid, tell me... do you think Jacob has any idea what we were doing just now?"

Selina’s flushed cheeks had barely calmed down—then immediately flared red again.

No one had ever told her that the head of the Reid family was this shameless!

"But even if he does," Logan said offhandedly, "what’s the problem? I haven’t seen Mrs. Reid in a while. Got carried away. I’m sure he’ll understand."

Selina’s rationality came crashing back. She shoved him away, face burning. "I’m going back to the party. Do whatever you want!"

She bolted for the door like there were wild animals chasing her.

Logan chuckled softly. "Mrs. Reid... you might want to check the mirror first."

Selina blinked. There just so happened to be a full-length mirror near the door. She glanced at it instinctively—

Her face was flushed, eyes hazy, lips swollen with a tiny red mark—anyone who saw her would instantly know what had just happened.

There’s no way she could walk out like this!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She turned and shot Logan a murderous glare.

But she didn’t realize—right after being kissed, her gaze had no real bite to it. It only made her look more alluring.

Logan’s Adam’s apple bobbed. His voice came out hoarse. "Selina, we need to talk."

Selina was busy applying lip gloss to cover the mark. At his words, a wave of frustration bubbled up inside her.

"What’s there to talk about? I know you lied to me. You’re not even the heir to the Carter family!"

Logan looked at her calmly. "Mrs. Reid, I admit I didn’t come to you with pure intentions at first. But I never meant to hurt you."

Selina glared at him.

He walked up behind her and gently placed his fingers on the nape of her neck.

"Whatever you want, I’ll help you get it. Whatever Jacob can do—I can do too. Selina, I told you when we got married... ’divorce’ isn’t in my vocabulary."

Selina reflexively blurted out, "What about Angelica—"

"I promised her two things. When did I ever say I’d divorce you and marry her?"

Selina choked up.

Thinking back... he really hadn’t said that.

Everything about him divorcing her and marrying Angelica came from Angelica’s mouth.

Her voice softened, laced with a twinge of vulnerability she didn’t even realize was there. "Then why did you celebrate her birthday?"

"Her birthday?"

To her surprise, Logan suddenly smiled. "Mrs. Reid... are you sure I was celebrating Angelica’s birthday?"

Selina gritted her teeth. "It’s the end of December. Isn’t that her birthday? Everyone knows you promised to celebrate it with her—and even go to the Clark estate!"

Logan lowered his eyes. "I am going to the Clark estate. And I am celebrating someone’s birthday that day. But who ever said... it was Angelica’s?"
