Chapter 1213
Lola was a little nervous when Logan slowly approached her. While he was inexperienced when it came to romance, nor was she. When she was dating Shawn, they treated each other almost as strangers, so nothing happened between them. It wasn’t when Logan was a few inches away from her that he asked, “Shouldn’t you close your eyes?”
Lola obeyed him, closing her eyes obediently, while he stared at her for a while before kissing her. The kiss felt different from yesterday’s, but Logan couldn’t quite put a finger down on the exact difference; all he knew was that it was different. Yesterday, he did it both out of rashness and nervousness, but he felt bliss when he kissed her again now, while his heart was bubbling with emotions that were on the brink of overflowing.
Meanwhile, Lola felt the same as Logan cupped her face in his hands. Although he was trying his hardest, he didn’t seem to quite get the hang of it. However, it was good enough considering that neither of them left with chapped lips. When they parted some time later, both of them were panting slightly, and Lola was blushing even.
Logan cupped her face in his hands before kissing her on the forehead. “When will you be leaving for home? I’ll tag along. I think your father might have misunderstood me in some way, so I’ll explain myself to him.”
However, Lola knew that there was never a misunderstanding to begin with, as while Langdon liked Logan a lot, he was also overcome with fear. Not only did he fear Logan’s prestigious family, but he was also worried about the possibility that they might mistreat Lola. Therefore, she rubbed her arm against Logan’s before comforting, “I don’t think there is a misunderstanding between you, so don’t you worry.”
Heaving a sigh, he said, “I used to think that your father liked me, but I’m not so sure after yesterday.” Lola merely smiled, and she didn’t explain too much to him.
The morning went by in a tranquil atmosphere, and the both of them went and had lunch in a restaurant that Lola chose. Prior to that, Logan already picked out a few starred restaurants as he wanted to provide Lola with the best after they finally got together. However, Lola didn’t seem to care much for that, as she wasn’t a materialistic person to begin with, so she merely chose a mid-tier restaurant. They arrived a little later than expected, so there were no more private rooms, which left them with no choice but to sit in the hall. While oblivious when she sat down, Lola noticed after she was done ordering their meal that someone had been staring at her. Turning around, she was startled to see Jasmine. Judging from the fact that Jasmine was surrounded by other girls, Lola figured she came with her colleagues. It wasn’t until then that Logan noticed her presence, but he averted his gaze after glancing at her while keeping a straight face, as if having seen a stranger. Pouting, Jasmine averted her gaze after glancing between Logan and Lola, her expression stiff. Although she already knew of the outcome, the sight of Logan dating someone else still stung her. Meanwhile, Lola was also feeling a little uneasy, but Logan caressed the back of her hand when consoling her. “There’s nothing between us, so you shouldn’t be overthinking this. While I didn’t let you down, nor would I consider myself as having let her down.” He thought so as he had tried to offer her monetary compensation. Back then, despite the unreasonable price she named, he agreed to the deal nonetheless.
