How was your day?’ Sophie’s heart did a leap at Logan’s easy greeting. It beat out an erratic tattoo as he leant forward in the opulent foyer of the Carlisle Mining building, and kissed her as if it was the most natural thing in the world to do. ‘It just got a whole lot better,’ she said a little breathlessly wanting to melt into him and forget about the stand-up arguments she’d had today with Felix over environmental issues. ‘What did you do all day?’ ‘Acquired office space, fielded a few important phone calls despite being on leave, had a quick meeting to see how Scott’s hotels business is going—’ ‘You were left in charge of that, right?’ ‘Yes. Scott’s original will left me as executor and placed me in charge of the business. I have the responsibility of making sure the business ticks over nicely but if Thea Winston wins custody of Charlotte, I’m pretty certain her next action would be to challenge me for control of the hotel chain as well.’ Sophie felt her lips firm.
