Chapter 8
Logan's POV.
"Sir, the captain says we'll be landing soon, do you need any help putting on your seatbelt?” DoTlook like a four-year-old, Karen? “No, thank you, Karen, I'm perfectly capable of doing it myself" “Shame” Karen pouts as she walks away to her seat gently rubbing my shoulder as she did.
1 don't know what itis with these women like my air stewardess Karen or my secretary Sophia but they always seem to find a way to be as close to me as possible so that they can flirt with me or touch me.
Tve never even encouraged these women and I always remain professional with them because at the end of the day, the only relationship we'll ever have is a boss and employee relationship, not to mention there's only one woman I ‘want and I'm not gonna risk a potential future with her because of women like Karen or Sophia.
Thirty minutes later, the plane landed and 1 was quickly and secretly escorted to a waiting car outside of the airport.
Twanted to be as discreet as possible because if the UK tabloids were to find out Logan Black was in town then it ‘would be all over the papers and magazines alerting my girl that I'm here and I can't allow that.
1 can't have her knowing I'm here just yet, the timing isrit right “So, what have you got for me?" Task my second in command and best friend Cameron as his twin brother and my other best friend Caden drives the car to our hotel “Well, 1 guess the good old saying money talks is true because the school were more than happy to give Ryker Lacey's details, as well as all of the information they've got on the kids as soon as they found out you were donating a huge sum of money to them” Fucking idiots.
Dorit get me wrong, I'm ecstatic that they've given me this information but it still doesn't change the fact that they're stupid.
1 could be a paedophile, a rapist or a murderer for all they know and yet they're willingly giving me this private information just for a bit of money.
Tshook my head at how stupid and neglectful these people are and I made a mental note to have a chat with the principal about it when I meet him/her.
Anyway, Cameron handed me my iPad which showed an email from the school that had several different attachments on it which were filled with different information about each one of my kids.
Twas blown away and I almost teared up when I saw my eldest son has not only got my name but he's also got my.
father's name for his middle name as well
1 don't know why Lacey did this but I'm glad she did and I know my father is going to be really happy about t.
‘When Ryker and Tiffany had Elijah, they wanted to honour her father and uncle who had died in a horrible plane rash when she was fifteen, so my dad wasn't tributed through his firstborn grandson but he was with his second.
From the looks of things, my kids seem like incredibly intelligent and insanely talented children and according to reports from the schools, they're all kind and well mannered and nobody has got anything bad to say about them Even though my youngest son Dayton seems like a cheeky and mischievous little fucker just like his uncle Liam was and still is, he's not malicious with it and he doesn't disrupt the class with his shenanigans and according to his teacher, he'd rather wait until playtime to act up and joke around.
Liam is gonna love this kid Tlooked through everything Ryker had sent me with a fine tooth comb and I narrowed my eyes in anger on one file ‘when saw it was an incident report.
“Why is there an incident report done on my kids?" “Oh, that's nothing to stress over, if anything you should be proud of it"
“What do you mean? why should I be proud?” “Well because according to Ryker, Eljah was being bullied by a group of boys because of his autism..." WHAT?" 1 growl interrupting Cameron.
My nephew was being bullied, T can't believe this.
Whos raising these little bastards? “Let me finish” Cameron says annoyed and I huff “When Logan Jnr; Dayton and Teddy saw what was going on, they confronted the boys and they not only protected young Eljah but they gave the kids who were bullying him a harsh lesson” “Did they beat them up?” Task and Cameron smirks.
“No, they didn't but they did verbally annihilate them according to the teacher, read what she had to say” Tlook back down at the iPad and my heart swelled with pride when I read what the teacher had to say about my three bundles.
She commended my kids for standing up for Eljah and telling the boys off for being nasty bullies instead of participating in a physical attack ‘The teacher also said that she overheard my daughter telling the boys that it takes less time to be nice than it does to
‘The teacher also said that she overheard my daughter telling the boys that it takes less time to be nice than it does to be horrible and vile before my eldest boy told them it says a lot about them and their characters when they bully someone, especially someone who is autistic like my nephew is.
1 couldn't contain the smile on my face or the pride in my heart for not only my children but also for Lacey because she's clearly done a phenomenal job raising our three babies on her own and she's raised three kids who didn't hesitate to step in and stand up for their own cousin despite not knowing that they re related.
“She did good, brother” Cameron says and 1 nod my head “Yeah, she did” We arrive at my hotel not long after we had set off and Caden parks the car behind my hotel so that I can sneak through the back way and use the private elevator to get to my floor so that I'm not seen Tthen spent the rest of the day discussing Lacey and my kids with my men and trying to get as much information as 1 could on them.
Teven received a nice little visit from my brother, his fiance and my nephew which was nice until the jet lag started to kickin and all I wanted to do was have a shower and get some sleep which 1 was finally able to do when my brother and his little family left ‘The Next Day.
Today has been a very productive day for me even though I've done nothing but sit in my car as I follow my Lacey around all day.
When first saw my girl again, she quite literally took my breath away because of how beautiful she is.
Lacey's always been a stunningly beautiful woman but it seems time and giving birth to our kids has only enhanced her beauty, not to mention her body.
Twas forced to shift several times in my seat just from looking at her sexy, curvy body because it was making me feel very uncomfortable down there.
My d**k was getting hard and had to hide it as best as I could considering I was in the car with two of my best friends who wouldn't waste a single second to crack a joke or laugh at me.
My heart then jumped for joy and happiness and had to control everything in me to stop myself from getting out of the car and going to embrace my children when I saw all three of them walk out of the two-storey home looking like they were ready to go to school Tt was then that we followed Lacey everywhere.
At first, we followed her to the school which is ane of the best schools in London and I couldn't help but smile when I saw my three kids and my nephew laughing and talking with each other on the school grounds.
Lacey then went shopping where she purchased several bags of toys as well as several bags of food, she then went home where she stayed for a couple of hours before going to get our kids from school Thad a feeling Lacey wouldrit be leaving her home again tonight, so Twent back to my hotel to get something to eat and have a shower.
I planned on going back to Lacey's tonight to see her and hopefully have a conversation with her about us, our kids, everything that's happened and hopefully our future.
Tt was around seven now and 1 was heading back out to my car when got a phone call from my father “Hey, dad” “Where the hell are you, Logan?" His angry voice boomed down the phone to me without so much as a hello.
“T'm in London” Ttell him and I swear I heard a litle gasp coming from him.
“What? why are you in London, Logan?" “Because the company needed me, that's why" “For what? there's a reason why we put Ryker in charge there, son” My dad says and I sigh in annoyance as I get in my car and hook my phone up to t.
“Yeah I know but Ryker needed my help with something” “And you couldn't deal with this something over the phone?” He growled angrily at me.
“Unfortunately no, dad, T couldn't 1 needed to deal with this personally in person” “But what about Christmas? will you be back home in time for Christmas?" “Of course, Iwill, dad stop worrying” And hopefully, Tl be bringing Lacey and the triplets back home with me as well if things go my way.
“Youd better come back home son, your mother won't forgive you if you miss Christmas” Dorit know it
Good" 1 continued to talk with my father during my drive to Lacey's house and thankfully, our call had ended when my mom called for my dad just as I had parked up behind Lacey's car Isat there for a couple of minutes just trying to calm my nerves and gather my thoughts before I eventually got out and approached the home.

Istood outside of the bright red door with a light-up Christmas wreath decorated on it as 1 pressed the doorbell, my body filled with nerves and anxiety as did “Til get it, mummy” A sweet angelic voice says before the door opens revealing my daughter to me.
Tlooked down at my beautiful little girl who was the image of her mother except she's got my natural blonde hair and my blue eyes ‘Those electric blue eyes were looking at me with a strange look in them but they also had a look of familiarity as well ‘which is weird “Can help you, sir?" ‘The young lady spoke with an accent that sounded like a mixture of Tom Holland and Tom Hardy which was so freaking adorable.
“Yeah, I'm looking for my friend Lacey, is she home?" “Youre my mummy's friend?" She asks whilst eyeing me up and I nod my head.
“Yes, Tam" ‘The litte girl eyed me up for a few more seconds before doing something that shocked me, she opened the door ‘wider and invited me in.
Tnervously stepped into the beautiful home and my daughter shut the door behind me.
“Follow me” She said and waved her hand for me to follow her We walked into the cosy living room where my beautiful Lacey was currently sitting on the floor with a pile of ‘wrapped-up presents surrounding her “Mummy, this man said he's an old friend of yours and he wanted to see you" Old Friend? 1don't remember saying that.
“What man, Teddy?" Lacey tured around looking confused and her eyes widened in shock as she stood up and looked directly at me.
1 couldn't help but smirk at her reaction, she looks so damn cute when she's startled and confused.
“Logan” “Hey, Lace, it's good to see you again, babe”
