Chapter 299
Sanya was at a loss for words.
She quickly sized up the woman, her mind racing with thoughts and connections.
This woman was dressed impeccably, so Sanya figured that she was likely a daughter from a rich family. Given that this woman showed up at Logan’s home at this time, it was obvious that the two of them had a close relationship.
Sanya thought, “When she saw me, her expression was instantly filled with shock and disbelief. There was even a hint of grievance and sadness. It’s not difficult to imagine that this woman must have a thing for Logan.
‘It’s even possible that they are lovers. If that’s the case, the situation would work even more in my favor!
The matter of “war machines” could not be casually revealed to the outside world, so Logan could not directly tell the woman about Sanya’s identity. Now that Sanya had appeared at Logan’s house, this woman would definitely misunderstand her relationship with Logan.
As long as Logan cared about this woman, Sanya would be one step closer to achieving her goal.
‘She really showed up at the perfect time,’ Sanya thought. ‘I’ll definitely make good use of this woman.‘
Smirking and raising her eyebrows, Sanya tilted her body, leaned against the door lazily, and sneered at the woman, saying, “As a matter of courtesy, shouldn’t you introduce yourself first before asking who I am?”
When Tonia Foster heard this, her beautiful eyes were filled with shock, and she said, “I…”
She did not understand why the girl in front of her could still be so calm. ‘She appears in a single man’s house for no reason and is even dressed so provocatively and indecently,’ she thought
‘Now that she sees an outsider here, shouldn’t she be flustered and hurry to change her clothes? How come she could still question me like this?‘
“What?” Sanya said. “I asked you what your name was and what you’re doing here.”
Her presence was strong. Those who did not know better would think that she was the owner of this house.
As a delicate young lady who was well protected by her family, Tonia was not Sanya’s match at all. She couldn’t hold her ground for even a few seconds before being overwhelmed by Sanya’s aura. “I, I’m Tonia,” she said. “I’m here to see Logan.”
Sanya thought, ‘Logan? What an intimate way of addressing him. I won’t believe that they are not in an illicit relationship.’
Sanya was in a good mood. She continued to block Tonia, asking her as if she were checking her identity. “Why do you want to see Logan so early in the morning? What’s your relationship with him?”
Tonia was controlled by Sanya and did not even think of refusing to answer. However, when she was asked about her relationship with Logan, her cheeks flushed, and she stammered, “He, he and I are…”
Seeing that Tonia was not confident enough to reveal her relationship with Logan, Sanya felt a little disappointed.
She thought, ‘What’s going on? Could it be that their relationship hasn’t been confirmed yet?
‘If they were really lovers, seeing a strange girl in her boyfriend’s house, even someone with a weak personality would definitely be angry and question that strange girl confidently. But this woman is just being led around by me and doesn’t even dare to say what their relationship is.
‘If they’re not lovers, the effect I
nt would be greatly reduced need to observe Logan’s attitude toward this woman first.‘

Just as Sanya was about to call Logan over to claim Tonia, he had already walked up to the door. “Go back to the room and change your clothes first,” he said to Sanya.
“Why?” Sanya said. “Could it be that you have a secret relationship with this woman?”

She looked back at Logan with interest, eagerly anticipating his explanation of what exactly his relationship with this woman called Tonia was.
Unfortunately, Logan did not intend to explain it to Sanya.
Seeing that Sanya’s eyes were gleaming with excitement, he knew that she was definitely plotting something against Tonia.
He turned slightly, looked Sanya in the eye, and said in a serious voice, “Go back to the room for now.”
“What if I refuse?” Sanya said.
She tilted her head, locked eyes with Logan, and smiled provocatively. She wasn’t the obedient type, and she wouldn’t comply without getting the answers she wanted.
“Go back to your room,” Logan said, his tone growing more serious and filled with anger.
Sanya sneered and squinted. “Say that to me again with that tone?”
Logan was left speechless, thinking, ‘She is unmoved by neither force nor gentle persuasion.
Logan had lived for thirty years, and this was the first time he had met such a difficult girl.
Since using force wasn’t working, and Tonia, who was at the door, was staring at them with her eyes wide open, continuing to argue would be of no benefit to anyone. Logan had no choice but to compromise with Sanya again.
He sighed and said, “I’ll tell you everything you want to know in a bit. Go back to your room now and change your clothes. Is that okay?”
“Hmph, wouldn’t it have been fine if you had talked nicely to me earlier?” Sanya said. “You insisted on pushing me to the point of getting angry.”
After getting a satisfactory answer, the corners of Sanya’s mouth curled into a satisfied smile. This time, she turned around readily and said, “Alright, I’ll go back to the room to change my clothes. You two take your time to chat.”
Upon seeing Sanya go upstairs, Tonia, who had been suppressing her puzzlement, could no longer hold it in. With teary eyes, she questioned Logan, “Logan, who is that girl? Why is she in your house? Why is she wearing your shirt? What exactly is going on between you two?”
Logan was at a loss for words.
Facing Tonia’s barrage of questions, he did not answer. Instead, he responded by asking in return, “What brought you here today?”
Noticing that Logan didn’t answer her questions, Tonia felt upset again. However, she didn’t forget why she was here today. She pursed her lips and thought for a while. Then, her eyes got teary again as she choked out, “Logan, my dad hopes that we’ll get engaged. Why didn’t you agree?”
Logan glanced at Tonia indifferently and said, “I’ve likely told your dad, right? I have no romantic feelings for you.”
Tonia said in pain, “You’re lying to me. It’s not that you have no feelings for me. Rather, it’s because my dad and your dad are old friends, but you’ve already cut ties with your dad, so you’re taking it out on my dad. That’s why you’re unwilling to marry me, right?”
“You’re overthinking things.”

Tonia let out a chuckle Fm overthinking things? I also think I’m overthinking things, but what’s with that girl showing up at your place today? Aren’t you trying to force me to withdraw from the relationship, so you intentionally brought someone into the picture to rile me up?
“Logan, I really didn’t expect that you would play such a trick to rile me up.”
Logan was left speechless, and he was helpless.
He thought, “Tonia is really overthinking things, but the truth isn’t what she thinks.
‘However, the fact that Sanya is a war machine is classified, and I can’t casually disclose anything related to war machines. So, I can’t explain to Tonia why Sanya shows up at my place. Of course, I also have no reason to explain to her.
So, he said, “I don’t need to explain what’s going on between me and her to you. Hurry up and go back. I have to go to work.”
Tonia bit her lip. Reluctant to be resigned to the situation, she said, “I should go back? What about that girl? Isn’t she still in your house? Logan, we’re childhood sweethearts. I haven’t even spent the night in your house, yet you want to keep that girl
here.
Logan thought, ‘How should I respond? It’s not that I refuse to let that girl leave. But I’m no match for her in terms of fighting, and I can’t outtalk her either. What can I do?‘ Admittedly, Logan was also really troubled by Sanya. He didn’t know how to deal with her at all.
With Tonia now in the picture, there was only one thought left in Logan’s mind at this moment. He wanted to go to work.
“I’m not leaving!”
Tonia suddenly became stubborn. She sniffed and said to Logan, “If she can stay at your house, why can’t I? Go ahead to work. I’ll stay here and wait for you to get off work.”
Upon hearing this, Logan frowned and said, “Tonia-”
Just as he was about to ask Tonia to leave, a soft sensation suddenly pressed against his back, and a clear voice could be heard.
“Darling, why haven’t you chased this annoying woman away? If you continue flirting with her, I’ll be upset…”
