Chapter 188
Logan knew every word was true, but hearing it from the other person really cut deep.

‘Yeah, only back then did Eliana use to care so much about me. But now… Logan thought, feeling a wave of emptiness.
After all these years of marriage, Logan had never truly held Eliana close to his heart.
So he never even thought about whether Eliana loved him or cared about him.
To him, it all just seemed normal, like that was just the way things were meant to be.
It wasn’t until Eliana was really gone, until he’d truly lost her, that he finally started to regret it.
An overwhelming urge to win Eliana back surged within him, stronger than ever before.
Just then, a news alert popped up in the corner of his screen.
[The Epic Proposal: Nathan Turner, CEO of Turner Group, Proposes to Eliana in a Lavish, High–Profile Ceremony]
Logan stared at the news, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He knew Eliana and Nathan had a complicated history, but he never expected Nathan to pop the question so soon after their divorce.
He figured someone like Nathan, with his status and reputation, would at least have some reservations. After all, Eliana had been married to him before and even had a child with him. Even an ordinary person would care about that, let alone someone like Nathan.
But now, it was clear that all those worries had just been in his head.
Nathan didn’t mind at all. He was practically itching to make Eliana his wife.
This was probably the kind of genuine care Eliana had been longing for all along.
All those things she never got from Logan in six years of marriage, she found them with Nathan the moment she walked
away.
Logan didn’t even have to click the article to know what Eliana’s answer would be.
Clinging to his last bit of hope, Logan’s fingers shook as he hesitantly tapped the news article open, scanning every line, afraid to miss a single detail.
The instant his eyes landed on the words “Eliana said yes to the proposal,” Logan’s face went deathly pale, and he shot up from his seat, unable to sit still for another second.
Just finding out that Eliana had risked her life to save him back then had already left his heart in shreds. But at this time, he saw the news that she’d said yes to Nathan’s proposal. Logan felt like everything was tormenting him.
Logan shot to his feet, not wasting a single second. He headed straight for the Lyons Group.
When he arrived at the company, the receptionist, Laura stopped him. “Mr. Eliot, sorry, do you have an appointment?” “Where’s Eliana?” Logan stepped forward, looking straight at Laura.
*So you don’t have an appointment. Please wait here for a moment. I’ll call Ms. Lyons to see if she’s available,” Laura said.

Everyone at the Lyons Group knew all about Logan’s past actions, so they weren’t exactly thrilled to see him.
Back when Eliana was devoted to him, Logan never appreciated her and treated her harshly.
Now that Eliana was back and leading the company to new heights, he was suddenly showing up again, unable to stay away. Of course, as part of the Lyons Group, none of them liked seeing him act this way.
That was exactly why Laura was giving him a hard time on purpose right now.
Logan listened to Laura, assuming Eliana must be in the building. That thought eased his nerves a bit, so he let Laura make the call without protest.
Laura hung up quickly and looked at Logan. “Sorry, Ms. Lyons isn’t available at the moment. You’ll have to wait here for a bit.”
With that, Laura turned back to her own tasks.
Logan glanced at her and kept quiet, settling in to wait patiently.
He knew he owed Eliana a lot, so as long as he could see her today, he was willing to wait however long it took; he wouldn’t utter a single complaint.
As the minutes crawled by, Logan forced himself to be patient, just sitting there and waiting for Eliana.
He knew Eliana well enough now. She’d probably make him wait until the end of the workday.
With that expectation, the wait didn’t feel all that unbearable.
Just then, his friend sent over a photo. [Logan, isn’t that your ex–wife? She’s already out shopping for wedding dresses with another guy? Isn’t that a bit much?
[Dude, you haven’t even moved on, and she’s already about to get married? Honestly, I wonder if she ever really cared about you all those years. Your reputation was ruined, and she’s just chilling, even landed Nathan.]
Logan saw those messages first, and his mind was already reeling. But he took a deep breath, braced himself, and tapped on the photo.
The moment Logan realized the photo showed Nathan and Eliana trying on wedding dresses together, his face went pale. He jumped up and marched straight to Laura.
“Didn’t you say Ms. Lyons was busy? Didn’t you say she was here in the office?” Logan pressed, his voice tight with
frustration.
Laura said calmly, “No, I never said Ms. Lyons was in the office. I just said she’s busy and can’t see you right now. What’s the
issue?
“Ms. Lyons really is busy. Do you seriously think she’d have time for you right now?”
Laura replied with total confidence, not even a hint of panic.
Logan was pissed, but he knew now wasn’t the time to pick a fight with her. He turned on his heel and stormed out.
On his way to the car, he fired off a text to his friend, asking where the photo had been taken.
As soon as his friend texted back, Logan jumped in, gunned the engine, and took off without hesitation.

Meanwhile, over at the bridal shop, Eliana came out wearing a new wedding dress.

Nathan had been waiting nearby the whole time. As soon as Eliana walked out, he got up immediately, his eyes shining with admiration and love. “You look amazing. Seriously, you’re stunning.
“Eliana, you’re gorgeous.”
The sales assistant let out a soft laugh at Nathan’s words. “Ms. Lyons, your fiancé really adores you. Just look at the way he gazes at you, and anyone can see how much he loves you.”
Eliana’s smile grew even brighter at the sales assistant’s comment. Turning to Nathan, she couldn’t help but tease, “Seriously, you say that about every single dress. How am I ever supposed to choose?”
Nathan stepped right up to her, his eyes brimming with adoration. “Honestly, every dress looks incredible on you. You could throw on a potato sack and still look absolutely stunning.
“If you really can’t pick, then let’s just buy them all. That way, you can wear whichever one you feel like, whenever you want. “Or we could save them for our anniversaries, first year, second year, third year, just switch it up every time. How does that sound?”
The sales assistants watched them with envy, but Eliana just reached out and playfully flicked Nathan’s nose. “You’re being ridiculous,” she laughed.
