Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 299

I looked at her curiously and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Jaylan didn't go home after leaving the hospital. Instead, he went to a private residence. We've

confirmed that Jerome is there!" Hannah said, looking serious as she spoke to me.

I was startled, bolting upright from my bed. "What? He went to see Jerome?"

Hannah nodded solemnly. "Yes, he went to see Jerome."

I found it hard to believe, muttering, "That's impossible... Why would he go see Jerome? Didn't they

have a falling out? Why would he go see him in the middle of the night?"

I looked at Hannah and said, "This doesn't add up."

Hannah agreed, "It certainly doesn't, especially at this hour. It's very telling."

I started to feel worried. "Could their feud have been fake? That would be terrifying!"

The more I thought about it, the more it scared me. If that was the case, it meant they had a sinister

plan, and I was undoubtedly their target.

I immediately dialed Logan's number, and he answered it quickly. His deep voice came through, "Hello, Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

darling."

Hearing his voice was immensely reassuring. I wasn't sure when, but Logan had somehow become a

pillar of support for me.

I didn't beat around the bush. "Logan, I need to ask you something. Can you still eavesdrop on Jaylan

like you did before?"

He quickly responded, "The bug I used was basic, with a low battery life to avoid detection. It's not

working anymore. What's up? Why do you want to spy on him?"

I sighed in frustration. "I'm in a bit of a situation." Then I explained how Jaylan had met with me and

then immediately went to see Jerome.

He paused for a moment before responding, "If it's necessary, we can plant another bug."

"I need to know why Jaylan went to see Jerome. That's pretty scary if they’re playing me," I said,

struggling to keep my composure. The whole situation sent chills down my spine.

"Don't worry, Allie. You stick to your plan, and we'll handle the rest. Even if they're putting on a show,

we'll break it," Logan assured me confidently.

"Really?" I asked, excited.

He responded lazily, "What else? We can't let them string us along, can we? You're smart. You'll be

fine. You got this!"

His words made me laugh, and I suddenly felt a little more at ease. "You're such a joker! Kidnappings

are becoming routine for us, so how can I be calm? And 'got this'? I'm the one being played!"

"No way, this was just a fluke. It won't happen again," Logan reassured me, "No matter what happens,

don't panic. Stay calm. Remember when you gave me the Tylenol? You handled that perfectly."

His words made me burst out laughing. That memory was still fresh.

"You're grossing me out again?" I said, laughing so hard that I was crying. "There's one more thing!"

"Even if there were a dozen more, they'd be nothing. Go ahead."

I smiled, feeling warm. I then told Logan about my encounter with Janetta today, and how Catherine

and I managed to get information out of Olivia.

He listened without interrupting. Once I was finished, he chuckled, "You women are something. You

can get top-secret information as easily as picking up a burger at a drive-thru. I'm impressed!"

His praise made me feel even more proud. "Right?"

"With your brains and Catherine's gift of gab, you two could con anyone!" Logan knew us too well. "You

two should team up. You could make a killing. We're talking seven figures!”

"Really? Then Catherine and I won't starve in the future!" I joked.

"No way, my cousin and I won't let you two starve! We've got enough to get by," Logan's words were a

little cryptic.

"What do you mean?" I asked, instantly wishing I hadn't. Did he mean that Ronan would take good

care of me for a lifetime? A swift blush spread across my face.
