Chapter 37
After the call with Noah, actually. I ended the call in his ear as I didn’t know what to say to hir man in my house, that someone broke in?
him. What did he mean he fought with a
Why would anyone do that?
Well, I’ve been calming my son and waiting for Richard, as even when Noah said it was safe to go in, I was still too scared even when I was in the ear, I was constantly looking around just in case someone came up to us.
Okay, Richard was now taking too long, and I was beginning to worry. Andreas seemed to have fallen asleep as well, so taking the risk, I settled him on the seat before I got out of the car. After locking it, I walked toward our apartment. It’s crazy how people were still walking around, living normally, not knowing that there was a break–in just next to them.
I got to the door and was met with Richard, and 1 at first flinched seeing him.
“They didn’t reach the stairs,” he said, making me nod my head. “We can’t stay here; I called for help. After this, we’ll get a hotel, okay?” He said and I responded with a firm okay.
He then held me, leading me to the car. Inside the car, I rested my head on the seat while Richard helped Andreas get comfortable in the backseat
Help came, and Richard attended to them as he asked that we remain in the car; after that, he came back after getting important things from inside, and then he drove us to a hotel.
We got a room with two beds, which was just convenient for us with a son. I helped Andreas get in bed while Richard ordered room service, even when I said I wasn’t hungry, he insisted since we hadn’t had dinner.
When the food came, Andreas was asleep, so Richard and I ate. I was actually forced, and I knew skipping a meal would not be good for my body, so I decided to eat
After that I went to bed while Richard was on a phone call. He first called, I think, his people from London. Yep, he had guards and stuff like that before calling whom I recognized as Michael since he said that it might be relating to his father’s case, but there was a debate. He tried to sound low, but I could hear everything.
Michael suggested that it might be my competitor or one of my obsessed fans, but he made him understand that no fan knew I was in Miami, and he was right, as I haven’t posted about it. I haven’t even told them about the movie adaptation, so this was weird.
I don’t know when I fell asleep or when Richard joined me as when I opened my eyes, Richard was struggling to do his tie–yes, struggling because I always did it for him.
“Where are you going?” I asked as I sat up and rubbed sleep from my eyes.
“To get our bags, we can’t stay there anymore; it’s not safe.” He answered, making me nod as he was right, I was even planning to move out of that place because Lopin knew about it. “Can you give me a lund?” He asked, pointing to his the, and I nodded as he came to me, and bending. I helped him do it. “I called in sick for you.”
“What
“You can’t go anywhere; stay here until the culprit is found, okay?”
“What about Andreas!”
“He’s staying. I’m also not working: I’m just going to get our belongings and check with the authorities how far they Investigation, then I’ll be back, and I’m sure our flight will take off at that time.”
“What flight?”
“You were right, coming back here was not a good idea. I will manage Dad’s company from London.
“Richard-”
“I made a decision, Patricia; I hope you respect it.” He cut me off, leaving me with no choice but to nod

I was done doing his tie, so he kissed my forehead and then walked to Andreas, who was fast asleep, giving him a kiss. He left without looking back. I took a deep breath before I got my phone and dialed Noah’s contact, who picked up almost immediately like he was waiting for my call.
“Patricia, are you okay? Do you need anything?”
Chapter 37
“I’m fine. Noah, thank you.””
“It’s my job”
“Logan is not my husband anymore; you don’t have to look out for me.”
“I’m not only doing this for Logan. He answered in very low tone
“Where’s he
“Who, Login?”
“No, the man who broke in, you said-
“I took care of him
“What did you do?”
“He didn’t want to speak, so I did what any man like me would do, his body will be found in a truck soon. Something about an accident
“Noah!” I knew what he meant by that; yes, Noah was not just Logan’s driver or trusted man, Noah was a trained killer.
Remember the nights I invited him to have dinner with me when Logan didn’t come home? Well, I found out all this about him; he didn’t have any family. He said he was part of the trained killers that worked for the government where they took out threats and so forth. It didn’t make sense, but I understood him, and the fact that he didn’t have a family made us bond, as I could relate to that.
“I’m going to do everything I can to get to the bottom of this. I will find who sent him.”
“How do you know he was sent?”
“He’s a hitman; we used to work for the same boss before… before Logan rescued me.”
Thank you. Noah, but my husband is taking care of everything, you don’t have to worry yourself.” I said, as I trusted Richard. “And besides, we’re going back today”
“What?!”
“I can’t stay here.”
“But you have a project-
“Which I can work on online. Goodbye, Noah.” With that, I ended the call and then turned to Andreas, who was now awake as he was stretching himself. “I will help you clean up now,” I said to him, and he nodded. Then I turned and was going to dial Renea’s contact when my phone started ringing, and it was an unknown caller.
Now, on a normal day, I wouldn’t pick an unknown caller, but with what happened, I was curious, as it might be the person who sent that man to attack us, as I was sure if we were home, he could have attacked us.
“Patricia.” I almost jumped hearing the voice.
Why the hell was he calling me?
