His Toxic Addiction-Chapter 316: Laura’s Storm.

Hey, y’all!!!

I’m so sorry for repeating a few Chapters lately. If you must know, a lot has been going on in my life at this moment and writing hasn’t been easy.

Trust me, I haven’t lost my passion for it. I just need to clear all in my plates and end all of these tears standing in the corner of my eyes.

For now, I pray you all can bear with me. When I’m back from this storm, I’ll make it up to you and at that, I’ll need encouragement and motivation to keep me going.

Thank you so much. ✨

Logan watched the news about Alfred with great interest. Dismay, surprise, and satisfaction all flashed through his eyes at once.

The news caught him off guard and he realized how long he had wasted in toying around, searching for the man’s wealth.

However, the news gave him great satisfaction. Satisfaction of finally ending everything without him having to stress much over everything.

He scoffed when the news mentioned nothing about Nicklaus as the person who had leaked Alfred out. Seeing that, he nodded slowly and relaxed on the couch with plans and traps running through his mind like cars would do roughly to a highway.

Somehow, he managed to get his hands on information concerning Arissa’s marriage. A member of the higher-ups has become his puppet - perhaps a cordial one. Well, the information about that person or how he made the proud dickhead abide by his wish would be a secret for now.

That gist would be for later on. Right now, his main focus is on Wyatt’s marriage. Valeria might be wrong or perhaps right. He might not love Arissa or he might be only obsessed with her but whichever way, he wants her by his side.

If she stays by his side and becomes unbearable or he realizes he doesn’t love her as he thinks, he will make sure to crumble her. More than her father has done to his sisters.

He once planned to keep her away from his revenge lookout but at this moment, her response to become his would determine all of that.

He believes the couple will part ways soon. If the information he received were true, then it would be just a matter of days before the couple’s divorce headline would take the world by storm, and thanks to them, news about Alfred would lessen down a bit.

He stood up from the seat before his computer screen and walked towards the lampstand beside his bed. Opening it, he brought out a few files and started at it.

This was the file he signed with Alfred two years ago. He calculated himself then and if things had gone smoothly as he had planned with no marriage coming forth to become an obstruction to him, he must have been done with his these plans or must have still been toying around.

Alfred was very calculating. Logan would give him that credit. The man was so smart and would hardly let out vital information but all of that became history when his company got hit by Laura’s storm.

His company breaking down changed Alfred so much that the once smart, calculating, and pretentious man became a ghost of himself.

Logan planned to end Laura. He felt disgusted when he found out how she sat and laughed with her husband when her fellow woman who could pass as her child was being raped before her. But on second thought, he realized he did not have to end her.

If anyone was able to take revenge on Alfred, it was all thanks to Laura - note the sarcasm. Yeah, it was all thanks to her. She crumbled the company with her greed, which crumbled the man in every way possible.

He wondered what her plans were as she embezzled the company’s wealth back then. He wondered how she planned to spend it.

Considering the type of husband she lived with, spending such an amount of money was impossible.

It surprised him where he found the money. She was an extremely smart, cunning, and greedy woman and her mind worked well that way.

He searched everywhere he could think of without finding the money and the reason why he wasn’t able to find the money was that she carefully hid it under the ground outside their house. In the living room.

She built the place in the form of an underground room. When she placed the cash there, she would come out through a ladder, lock the door leading down there, and fix the marbles back on the floor.

You won’t even have the slightest guess that the marbles there have been shifted or replaced. He suspected she planned all of this all along before the house was even built.

He sat on the bed with the files in his hand. Flipping through the pages, he carefully read all of it.

Alfred going to jail gladdened him. His only regret was the fact he wasn’t the one who pushed that monster in there.

He would have felt more fulfilled if he had been the one to do that. Mr. Adams has disappeared without a trace but the man can hide all he wants. He would find him and make him pay for playing his part in the game of giving his wife over to someone else.

He felt doom lurking around but what was there to be afraid of when he had nothing more left to live for? As he had always wished for, Alfred is currently in jail with high charges and...

Valeria!

Her name clicked in his memory, cutting him off his line of thought and his heart skipped a beat. He stared away from the file and drummed his fingers on his bed.

Your organization!

Another reason hit his heart like a stray bullet. Yes, his organization. He could just hand it over to Vincent and disappear from the world when it’s time but for some reason, he understood the difference would be clear. Perhaps, they would crumble or scatter.

He can’t place much bet on Vincent in his absence. Vincent preferred calm leadership and most of the boys surrounding them do not always deserve calm leadership. He imagines the society being filled with his boys when leaves Earth and he immediately shuts his eyes.

He never realized he had so much responsibility until today and for Valeria, he doesn’t even know what to do with her.

He can’t keep on pushing, the moment he places Arissa beside him and either crumbles her or lets her live peacefully, his whole reason for survival will be over and he can feel Arissa becoming his soonest.

The sensation of that feeling was so strong...
