    The next morning, both Hope and Logan returned home. They readied to head to Logan’s grandfather''s house after having their


    breakfast. Hope had her head leaning against the window of the car while Logan was busy on a call with his secretary, Paul.


    As he disconnected the call and ced the phone beside him in the phone’s space, he gazed at Hope. “Why are you gloomy?”


    Logan inquired her.


    “| almost died yesterday,” Hope stated.


    “Are you scared now?” Logan ced his head on the headrest.


    “No. | wonder why | am that hateful,” Hope murmured. “What did I do wrong to him except love him?” Her eyes were darted at


    her hands, which were on hisp.


    “You still love him,” Logan arched his eyebrow at her.


    Hope met his gaze and shook her head. “I don’t, but it hurts when | think all that,” she admitted truthfully. She then chuckled.


    “Why did I even tell you this? You don’t do love, so you don’t understand love,” Hope remarked.


    “Let''s get into business,” Logan stated.


    “Business?” Hope looked puzzled.


    “If Grandpa asks you how we met, you must tell him that you saw me in a cafe and ended up asking me out. Grandpa must not


    be aware of my deal with your bastard father, so keep it in mind not to tell him,” Logan exined to him.


    “You want me to lie to your grandpa,” Hope opined.


    “Yes. It''ll be best. Also, try to be a good wife, who is madly in love with me,” Logan. pronounced. He then handed her the iPad


    and asked her to memorize everything. “It’s my family tree. You need to remember every single detail. If you fail, then get ready


    for the punishment,” he threatened Hope.


    Hope understood her value as a purchased wife in his life. All he wanted from her was to follow his orders and give him what he


    wanted. “Thief!” She mumbled.


    “What did you say?” Logan looked annoyed.


    “Nothing. | think you need to check your ears,” Hope muttered.


    Logan didn’t wish to argue with her, so he leaned back on his seat and waited for the car to reach his grandfather’s ce.


    Finally, after an hour and thirty minutes drive, they were at their destination. Logan.

    “Is this a royal pce? Hope murmured as she stopped beside Logan and tilted her head to look at him. “You are the Lycan


    Prince. That means your grandfather is the Lycan King,” she allirmed.


    The butler, who had opened the car’s door earlier, smiled to hear Hope’s words.


    “Stay quiet. Logan told her and grasped her hand. They began walking when Hope asked him to slow down. But he didn’t listen


    to her. The back of her feet got bruised from her high heels.


    Finally, they were in the cozy lounge room of the vi and they could an old man seated on the couch. Logan nced at Hope as


    he slowed down finally beforeing to a halt.


    Hope greeted Logan’s grandfather before taking a seat beside Logan, “Grandpa, | brought this for you. | hope you like it, she


    asserted after cing a small gift bag on the drawing table.


    William was surprised to see a gift brought by her granddaughter—in—w. He grabbed it and checked it first. “How did Hope know


    | would like this?” he asked as he saw a diary along with an expensive pen with it. The radiant smile on his clearly showed how


    delighted he was to receive the gift.


    Even Logan was surprised how Hope knew about his grandfather’s choice. Hope did a little research about Williamst night and


    got to know that he published a few books, so from there, she thought he would like a gift of a diary and a pen set.


    As she exined it to William, he remarked. Your wife is smart, Logan. I’m impressed. Hope. The house butler returned with a


    maid, who served them tea, except Logan since he preferred coffee.


    “Look, who is here!” Logan’s first aunt’s voice reverberated in the living room. Hope gazed in her direction. “Logan and his wife.


    Why did you not invite us in your marriage? How could you marry in such a rush?” Victoria asked as she sat at the side of the


    couch.


    “We wanted a simple wedding. Logan replied as he inhaled the scent of the coffee. He took a sip as he heard Victoria say


    further.


    “Hope, how did you meet Logan? It’s tough to please his heart. We tried our best to bring the best proposals for him, but he


    refused every time,” Victoria stated as she patiently waited for Hope’s response.


    “| met Logan first time at a cafe. He would usuallye there at the evening hour.”

    Hope asserted. Logan lightly smiled as she answered what he had asked her to. However, the next moment he started coughing


    when he heard Hope.


    “Logan was the one, who proposed me to date him,” Hope announced with a bright


    smile.


    Logan promptly ced the cup on the table before him when Hope held his hand. “He somehow fell in love with me at first sight.


    Logan, tell them how you proposed to me at the beach. | kept refusing him but he was so head over heels for me,” Hope said

    Hope gazed at her husband, who didn’t look pleasant at all. She had no idea that Logan used to love a woman.
