#Chapter 191: For Networking

Ella   We spent the rest of the ride back to the mansion in silence. I kept grinding my teeth over my frustration with Logan; I hated feeling this way, like I was spiraling out of control. I had thought that telling him would have made me feel better, but after today, I wasn’t so sure.   Here I was, having to fight off Marina’s advances, and all the while Logan wouldn’t even tell me what his plan was. He kept assuring me that I was safe, and I believed him, but I hated not knowing. I felt like a pawn in this game rather than his equal.   “Typical man,” Ema growled, just as annoyed at him as I was. “Always making the woman step aside so he can handle everything. Too stubborn for his own good, that one.”   I couldn’t have agreed more. Logan’s apparent arrogance and insistence on keeping me in the dark were infuriating. I just wanted us to be equal partners in this dangerous game we were playing, not for me to feel like a piece of bait in whatever grand scheme he was concocting.
