After arriving in New York, everyone was making final preparations for tomorrow’s conference. Everyone except Bailey, who was causing drama as usual.
“Logan,” she cooed, clinging to his arm shamelessly right in front of me. “I’ve never been to New York before, Won’t you show me around?”
She batted her eyelashes at him. “There’s this dress that’s only available in stores here. Take me shopping? I’ll model it for you tonight.”,
I frowned. “We still have work to do.”
She rolled her eyes dismissively. “You have all these people working already. The team leader doesn’t need to be involved in every little thing.”
“Director Reed is one of tomorrow’s primary interpreters. His work requires absolute precision. If you two insist on carrying on your disgusting affair, at least have the decency to wait until after the
conference“.
Bailey immediately turned to Logan with a wounded expression.
“Logan, I just wanted to buy a dress. I wasn’t trying to interfere with your work. Does your wife have to humiliate me like this?”
Her voice quavered theatrically. “I know she doesn’t want me here. Fine, I’ll book a flight home right
now!”
With that, she even made a show of walking toward the door.
Logan immediately pulled her into his arms, then glared at me furiously.
‘Filthy minds see filth everywhere! Autumn, if you dare to bully Bailey again, you can forget about participating in tomorrow’s conference!”
Several team members who were friendly with me looked outraged, but I gestured for them to stay quiet.
knew the more dramatic Logan and Bailey behaved now, the worse their downfall would be after he conference.

Chapter 2
Logan retained enough sense not to abandon his responsibilities entirely.
He promised to take Bailey shopping after finishing his work. Though visibly disappointed, she nodded in agreement.
Yet her compliance lasted barely hours before she started targeting me again.
At dinner, she insisted that since she finally made it to New York, she was dying to try the famous local clam chowder, and specifically demanded that I be the one to go buy it for her.
When I refused, she immediately whined to Logan, who used his authority as both team leader and husband to force me into becoming Bailey’s servant.
As I returned to the hotel room with the clam chowder, I found her wearing my pajamas, nestled comfortably in Logan’s arms as they watched TV.
Seeing me, her smile oozed smug satisfaction.
“Thanks for the trouble, Autumn,” she purred. “Oh, I forgot to pack pajamas, so Logan gave me yours. You don’t mind, right?”
She stretched, showing off how the fabric clung to her body.
“These are so ugly though. No wonder Logan’s lost interest in you. When we get home, I’ll gift you some pajamas he actually likes!”
I fought to control my rising anger, my voice deliberately flat: “Don’t bother. Keep them for yourself.”
I handed her the clam chowder bowl.
Suddenly, she tilted her head, a calculating smile playing on her lips.
“Oh, and Logan told me your clam chowder is pretty amazing too! I’d love to swing by your place and try it sometime!”
As she stood to take the bowl, she whispered so only I could hear: “You fucking bitch. You’ve been blocking my entry into the Translation Bureau forever, so I’m taking Logan from you. Fair’s fair!”
In the next instant, the bowl crashed to the floor.
Most of it splashed onto me, yet somehow she was the one crying hysterically.

“Logan! It’s burning hot! If she didn’t want to buy me clam chowder, I wouldn’t have forced her. Why would she deliberately scald me?!”
SLAP!!
Before I could defend myself, Logan’s palm connected with my cheek in a stinging slap.
“Autumn, when did you become so vicious? Apologize to Bailey right now!”
Something inside me finally snapped.
I shot them both a venomous glare and stormed out of the room.
Looking at my soiled clothes and reddened arms from the hot porridge, my hatred for Logan
reached its peak.
