Few moments earlier…
A knock at the door pulled Logan out of his thoughts. His maid stepped in, handing him a thin stack of morning newspapers.
"Leave them there," he said flatly, already guessing what he'd find.
Sure enough, the headline was there, bold and mocking…
"Cassandra Cole Causes Scene At Jean Adams' First Appearance As Mrs. Kingsley!"
"The Ice Queen Defends Her Husband… But At What Cost?"
Logan sighed.
So much for a smooth public launch.
He carried the paper towards her room and after knocking, he opened her door without waiting for her response.
Jean was curled under her sheets, clearly trying to fall back asleep. Her phone lay beside her, buzzing non stop. She didn't even look at him as he stepped in.
"Morning, darling," Logan said dryly, waving the newspaper. "Thought I'd deliver your fan mail."
"Tell the fans I'm dead," she mumbled, face buried in her pillow.
