Chapter 1184
Mrs. Long was rather plump, so she was naturally clumsy on her feet. She stumbled back several steps, only managing to break her fall when Mr. Long caught her.
Logan then exerted some force as he pressed his arm against Shawn’s neck, making it slightly difficult for him to breathe. Shawn’s face turned bright red, and at this time, fear consumed him. He said nary a word, merely struggling wildly.
At the side, the matchmaker was also shocked. “Hey, what are you doing? Quick, let go of him! Don’t fight. Let’s just talk peacefully, okay?”
Disgruntlement swamped Logan as he stared at Shawn’s cowardly self. Is such a scaredy-cat worthy to be my opponent? Releasing his hold on Shawn, he stood up. “Scram. Be gone with your family.” After saying that, he whirled around. With his back to Shawn, he took out his cell phone.
Mrs. Long, on the other hand, couldn’t take it lying down, so she roared and made to lunge forward. At this, Mr. Long hurriedly held her back, for he could tell that Logan was probably a big cheese. With a single glance at the car parked in the courtyard itself, he was certain that it was an expensive car, so he reckoned that Logan might be awfully rich. And he didn’t dare offend rich people. After all, affluent people usually had power. While his son had a secure job, he was just a low-level grunt, so there was much to fear.
Shaking him off, Mrs. Long shoved him to the side. “Why did you hold me back, you worthless dog?” Logan made a phone call. The call was quickly answered, and the person on the other end hastily asked, “What’s wrong, Young Master Jefferson? How may I help you?” These people might come back to make trouble again if I don’t settle this once and for all! Logan didn’t want to dawdle with the Longs, so he gave his location to the person on the other end and said that he needed some help with a minor problem. The person on the other end simpered. “Please don’t stand on ceremony, Young Master Jefferson. Just tell me if there’s anything I can do.” Turning half his body, Logan stared at Shawn, the corners of his lips lifting into a smirk. “I’d appreciate it if you could help me sort someone out.” “Ah, who’s so audacious to offend you, Young Master Jefferson?” the other person quickly blurted. At this, Logan laughed. When Lola saw this, she instantly had a bad feeling. She hurried over to him. “What are you doing? Don’t blow this out of proportion.” Logan ignored her entirely. He merely lifted a hand and placed it onto Mr. Hunt’s shoulder before patting him a few times, telling him without words to go into the house first and leave things here to him. Mr. Hunt didn’t quite understand his meaning, but Mrs. Hunt beckoned to him upon seeing this so that he’d leave things to Logan. After pondering for a moment, Mr. Hunt truly pivoted and returned to the house. At the same time, he even reached out and dragged Lola in as well.
Chagrin filled Lola. “Why did you drag me in? Someone should be there to hold Logan back. You don’t know how hot-tempered he is. When he blows his top, he might make matters worse.” Mr. Hunt waved a dismissive hand. “Stop jabbering. I know what I’m doing.” Lola was truly rendered speechless. To begin with, this matter has nothing to do with him. Leaving things to him now is totally unreasonable and makes zero
sense. No matter what, he’s an outsider here. Besides, she was also a tad anxious since she was well aware of his explosive temper. That man has no morals. Thus, she was truly afraid that he’d beat up the Longs when his temper spikes. However, she was then proven wrong. He said something or other, and the Longs then left while cursing them out. Mrs. Long was a notorious shrew, so while she had her jaw clenched and her eyes blazing with anger, one could tell that she was keeping herself in check. .
