Chapter 137: Chapter 137: LOGAN CIRCLE OF FRIENDS

"Should I wear this or that?" she mumbled to herself as she held two dresses in hand, checking how they looked in the mirror.

Briar was having a headache. It was a Tuesday evening and the day she would be meeting Logan’s friends.

During the weekend date, Logan informed her about meeting his friends, and she agreed. At first, it wasn’t certain when they would be able to meet, but yesterday when they were cuddling in bed, Logan informed her about the gathering’s date and time.

And so, it happened to be tonight. It seemed that someone was too eager to meet.

Since that was the case, she was aiming to please, but who would have thought that she would be having so many good things in her closet now?

"Dear, do you need help?" just as she was struggling with a choice, a familiar baritone male voice she would never be tired of listening to rang in her ears.

A smile blossomed on her face as she looked at the man who was appearing in the mirror.

Logan was dressed already; unlike the serious and business-like outfits he always wore. He had loosened up a bit and looked less stern.

Without tucking the shirt like every day and having those buttons open and revealing that handsome clavicle, she was starting to have a fetish for them; he looked young, hot and sexy. She wanted to keep him in the house.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t do so. Other women were going to see her man looking like that. It panged her heart, but when she thought about how they would be looking but unable to take, her mood suddenly got uplifted and she started looking forward to how sour that person’s face would be.

Looking at what Logan was wearing, an idea flashed in her mind, and she gratefully grinned at Logan.

"Hubby, no worries. I just found what I want to wear," she responded to his earlier question, a smile beaming on her face.

Logan, seeing that she had it all under control, didn’t force it but resumed what he was doing earlier.

Briar put back the two dresses she had in hand and started rummaging through the closet and found what was looking for.

After seeing Logan’s black outfit, she was inspired and picked a black circle skirt and a white cowl blouse.

With the clothes in hand, she didn’t hesitate but got rid of the robe she was wearing, revealing the black lingerie which made Logan give her several glimpses and felt his body getting hotter with each moment.

Briar finished dressing up and sat at the dressing table to have her make-up done.

Her hair was on the shorter side, but it didn’t make her look that bad. She didn’t plan on wearing a wig that night. If that other person had ill intentions, she might knock off her wig and make her get embarrassed. So, it would be better if she just showed herself as she was, rather than using other external help.

With her taking the beauty pill, her skin was much better than before. So, she didn’t feel suppressed or like she had low self-confidence.

She didn’t forget one last armor for a woman going to a battle, something that would keep Logan’s eyes on her no matter what. A beautiful diamond choker he bought for her.

She stood on her feet and took a good look at herself and felt very proud, especially seeing the dangling anklet on her leg. She wondered how that woman’s face would turn different shades once she saw that.

Logan also looked at Briar and seeing her all done and looking confident, he smiled involuntarily applauding her for being a good stylist. Knowing what fits one’s body was a blessing, and he was glad that she was finally knowing what she warned and what suited her.

Briar picked up her phone and turned around, facing Logan, who was looking at her appreciatively.

Seeing his gaze fixated on her, she felt smug and couldn’t help but feel like teasing him.

"Hubby, how do I look?" she asked coyly as she swirled around, the circle skirt blooming like a flower.

With the black and white mingling together, Logan felt like he was seeing a white lotus blooming from the mud, and it was sensational.

"You look great!" he earnestly responded, a smile tugging on his lips as his eyes flashed with a satisfied glint.

Briar grinned sheepishly upon hearing that and felt her ego scratched.

Logan chuckled lightly upon seeing that.

’She is a child!’ he couldn’t help but think.

The couple left the mansion in one of Logan’s sedans. Since drinking was natural at the gathering, they didn’t drive personally but had the chauffer take them.

The couple sat at the back with the partition in place, giving them privacy as they talked.

"Dear, will your friends accept me?" Briar nervously asked as she looked at Logan.

Those friends used to like Selena a lot, and they barely looked at her. She was just another servant in that household, so how could they care? But now things were different. She couldn’t help but worry.

Logan’s hands didn’t stop caressing her arm as he listened to her speak, her voice laced with worry and nervousness. However, when she was done asking that, he couldn’t help but pinch her chin softly so that she was looking directly into his eyes.

The two locked gazes and could only see each other.

Badum. Badum. Badum.

Her traitorous heart started racing wildly, and it was so loud, Briar saw Logan’s lips curling upwards and she just felt like disappearing on the spot.

However, when he suddenly lowered his head, her eyelashes trembled, her mind spinning hard and wondering what he wanted to do. Only to find him pecking her on the nose and forehead. A smile bloomed on her face, and all the embarrassment vanished.

Why be shy when she was facing her man?

It wasn’t like she was having an affair!
