《Hidden Riches》Chapter 34
Advertisement
I woke up the next morning hearing the front door squeak open, then slam closed. I sat up in the bed. I was alone. Logan was nowhere to be seen.
"Logan?" I said, my voice hoarse. I waited, but no response came. I said his name a little louder, but I was left with silence once again.
I stood from the bed and pulled my wrinkled shirt down to my thighs. (Logan was a rough cuddler)
I opened the door of the room. It loudly squeaked, causing me to wince. "Logan?" I said again.
The sound of drawers opening and closing caused me to start shaking. That wasn't Logan, was it?
I quickly pulled my long hair into a ponytail. If I was going to have to fight someone, I didn't want my hair in my face.
The room was empty of weapons, so my fear meter went off the chart.
I slowly tiptoed to the door once again and peeked out. In the living room was a tall burly man in a white suit, wearing sunglasses. He was walking around the living room, searching for something on the couch.
Now's my chance!
My body went into attack mode. I was going to hit this guy with anything I could find. I grabbed a boot from the corner and charged out of the room. The man turned in my direction. Now! I jumped over the couch and slammed the boot down on to the man's head. I slammed onto the ground before him, the boot flying in the air, then falling in the corner.
"Ahhh!" He screamed and fell to his knees. He rubbed his head viciously. He tore his glasses off his face and glared at me. "What the hell are you doing?!" He yelled.
"Who the hell are you?!" I yelled standing.
"I'd ask you the same thing! How dare you hit me in the head like that?! You could've killed me!"
"Fuck that! Get out of here or I'll call the police!"
"Logan!!" The man yelled.
I could hear footsteps storming down the hall. The front door swung open. There was Logan, looking as sexy as ever in his gorgeous black suit. "Tim-" Logan's mouth closed as soon as he saw my face.
"Who the hell is this chick, Logan?! She almost cracked my head open!" The man named Tim yelled.
"Who is this creep, Logan! He was going to steal from us!" I yelled back.

Logan sighed and rubbed the back of his head. "Both of you calm down. Bunny, this is my work buddy, Tim. Tim this is my girlfriend, Bunny."
"Hannah," I corrected.
"Bunny, Tim wasn't stealing. I told him to get something for me but he's an idiot so he made it harder than it really was. Everything's fine. Right?"
Tim and I glared at each other once more, then nodded.
Logan came over to me and took my hand. "Wait here, Tim." Logan pulled me into the bedroom and sat me on the bed. "Sorry, I was going to come back before you woke up."
"Why'd you leave?"
"Tim called me in about an emergency. Apparently, he found Chloe trying to sneak in this morning. We had to fire a few of our guards today. They're very easily led on and let her in."
"She's gone now, right?"
"Yeah, but now she knows I work here. She knows you're here too."
"How?!"
"I'm not sure. She's a lot smarter than she looks. It's all settled now and we're going to step up our security. Anyway, let's get you dressed. Today, you'll be with Bethany, Tim's personal assistant. She's going to show you around while I'm working."
Chloe, huh? How in the hell did she know I was here? And how does she know Logan works here? Did she see us leave the ceremony? Still, she would've had to follow us to know we were here.
"Do you like this outfit, Bunny? Bethany helped me pick it out for you." Logan said. He was holding a pink long sleeve button up top and a black mini pencil skirt in his hands. He held it out to me.
"Very professional," I said, taking the clothes into my hands. "I like it."
The door slid open. Tim was behind it. "We have to go now, Logan. Bethany will be here in a few minutes for the girl."
"I have to go now. I'll see you for lunch, Bunny." Logan leaned down and kissed my forehead. He let me go, then rushed out the room with Tim, leaving me all alone.
I searched the "room' and found the bathroom. It almost identical to mine at home.
I took a long shower using Logan's body wash. Once I finished, I searched the bathroom for a toothbrush. A pink one was waiting for me in the mirror cabinet. I brushed my teeth, then got dressed. I pulled on my outfit then brushed my hair straight.

I went back to the bedroom and found a white box with my name on it on the bed. I opened it. Inside was a pair of shiny black heels, the last piece to me attire. I pulled the heels onto my feet to complete my outfit.
While I was searching for food to eat, there were a few knocks on the front door. I left the kitchen and opened the door.
Behind the door was a woman. The woman was gorgeous. Long blonde curls lay on her shoulders, her big gray eyes shined behind big black glasses. She was dressed in a pink button up top and a black mini skirt. "I'm Bethany! Are you Bunny?"
Why does he tell everyone that?
"It's Hannah. That's just my nickname."
"Oh. I guess that's Mr. Python for you! By the way, I'm here to show you to place!"
"Yes. I'm ready."
"Then let's get to it!" She snapped her fingers. "I'll take you to the lobby first. You're probably starving."
She and I walked down a long hall and reached an elevator. Once the doors slid open, a dozen businessmen rushed out, yelling on their phones. Once they emptied out, she and I walked in. She pressed a button with a number one on it. The elevator slowly went downward.
When the doors opened again I followed her down another hall. We entered a small room full of coffee makers, donuts and workers. A few other women were inside. They waved to us, then they were crowded by a group of hungry businessmen.
Bethany and I squished past them and picked up some frosted donuts and some coffee.
The same redhead who I had seen behind the front desk the day Logan and I arrived approached us with a smile on her face. "So, how long have you and Logan been dating?"
The question caught me off guard. "Um, about eight months."
Why does she want to know?
"Oh? Almost a year. Congratulations!" She said, smiling once more.
"Thank you. It was very nice meeting you." I said as Bethany pulled me to our next location.
Once Bethany and I left the lobby, we went up each floor and she showed me where meetings took place and where the businessmen took their breaks. I found Logan having a meeting with a group of businessmen. He looked frustrated which made me laugh.
"Alright, in a few minutes we'll have lunch," Bethany said, sitting down on a bench in the hall. I sat down with her.
While we waited, she told me about what she does as Tim's P.A and how much work it was. I had a feeling I would have to become Logan's P.A one day, so I decided to listen closely.
At twelve thirty, we took the elevator along with a few other businessmen to get lunch. The elevator doors opened to a giant cafeteria. Hundreds of people were already seated inside, stuffing food into their mouths. The smell of garlic and tomatoes filled my nostrils, making my stomach growl.
I spotted Logan and Timothy. I left Bethany behind and joined Logan.
Logan's arm immediately circled my waist when I sat down. "You missed me?" He asked, placing a strand of my hair behind my ear.
I quickly nodded and snatched a fry from his plate and popped it into my mouth. I was starving even after stuffing my face with donuts a few hours earlier.
"Get your own food." He joked. Bethany and I went into the line together and stuffed our plates with food.
The food was delicious and I looked forward to eating it again. I stuck to Logan after lunch because Tim needed Bethany for a meeting.
He and I went back into the room after lunch. I slid off my heels then I fell onto the bed in exhaustion. I yawned loudly. I heard him chuckle behind me.
"It's been a long day, baby. Come lay with me." I yawned again.
I watched as he took off his jacket and his tie. He threw them to the floor and joined me on the bed then circled his arms around me. I moved in close my body resting against his.
"When are you and Logan gonna have sex?" Violets words echoed through my head. I buried my head in his chest to hide my blush.
"Bunny?" He softly said
"Hm?" I answered, wanting to sleep.
"Let's go on another date. An uninterrupted one. Just you and me. No one else."
Another date with Logan? I've wanted him to ask me this for so long. That's why I gladly said yes. **************************************
