Kelsey Sharp couldn't remember how she got herself out of there. When she got home, she bolted straight into Logan Sutton's study and began to frantically search. After a while, she came up empty. Just as she was about to blow her top, it dawned on her that Logan had a safe. So she spun on her heel, left the study, went into the bedroom, and found the safe.
She tried Logan's usual password, but the safe just wouldn’t budge. After racking her brain again, she tried the password that Grant Sutton had given her. Even though she was dead set against trying it, the safe did indeed open. Kelsey's heart started beating like a drum, her hands quaking as she pulled out the contents of the safe: a crystal photo frame, a keychain, and an old, worn-out wallet.
She checked each item one by one. When she turned over the crystal frame and saw a picture of Paige Owens and Logan locking lips, Kelsey's emotions went through the roof. The sweetness of the scene, coupled with Logan's pained expression and his beaming smile while kissing Paige, sent Kelsey's emotions into a tailspin.
She inspected the keychain, finding a small acrylic tag with yet another picture of Paige and Logan in a passionate kiss. Lastly, the wallet was so old that one could practically see its history; the leather was cracked and peeling. Opening it up, there was nothing inside except for a small photo in the clear pocket on the side.
In the photo, Paige looked like a junior student, her hair in a ponytail, with bright eyes and a radiant smile. In the bottom right corner, you could just about make out a seal, as if the photo was torn off from some sort of ID.
Kelsey found it hard to breathe. So, it turned out that Logan's crush on Paige didn't start four years ago, but much, much earlier. He had stolen her ID photo and kept it in his wallet. Kelsey gritted her teeth in rage and cursed, "The nerve!"
That day, for Kelsey, was worse than hell itself. She had always thought that as long as she loved Logan enough, no matter who he had in his heart, he would be hers. But now, the secret Logan had been holding onto was laid bare—he had loved Paige for over a decade. How was she supposed to snatch Logan back from Paige? Unless they never saw each other again.
Kelsey clenched her fists, took a photo of the picture of Paige and Logan kissing, and sent it to Grant. "I'll arrange to settle abroad with Logan after the wedding; make sure you keep things in check here," Kelsey said, her voice stern.
On the other end, Grant was nearly in hysterics. He wouldn't have guessed in a million years that Kelsey would be so efficient.
