Chapter 1233
Turning to look at Logan, Langdon could only follow behind him despite his annoyance. Meanwhile, Logan looked rather uptight while sitting in his chair, seemingly waiting for Langdon’s upcoming interrogation. Langdon sat down before him to give him a once over. Even though he was extremely satisfied with Logan, the situation still left him feeling vexed.
Clearing his throat, Langdon began questioning Logan about his familial background, to which Lola explained while sitting beside Logan. “He has four sisters, and there’s also his father, whom I have all met during a meal. They were very nice to me.”
Shooting Lola a glare, Langdon raised his second question. “Your four sisters—”
Before he could finish though, Lola interjected, “All of his sisters are married, each owning a company of their own. Not only are they very caring toward him, but they also showed me great hospitality when I visited them last time. They were extremely nice toward me.”
Langdon took a deep breath before continuing, “Your father—”
Once again, Lola interjected before he could finish his question. “His father is slightly older than you. He is a retired man with a gentle temperament.”
No longer able to withhold himself, Langdon turned to look at Lola. “Can’t you let me speak? Besides, I’m asking Logan questions, so why do you insist on interrupting?”
Lola pursed her lips while nodding. “Oh… Do continue. I won’t talk from now on.”
This time, without needing Langdon to ask, Logan spoke up of his own accord. “My father is still alive and kicking, but my mother passed away early on. Also, all of my sisters are married. My family is nice to both Lola and I. If we ever get together, Lola will be the decision maker within my household. You can also rest assured that my family doesn’t care about her financial status, as they put more emphasis on her character.”
Staring at Logan, Langdon shot back, “Talk is cheap.
Why should I believe you?” After a moment’s hesitation, Logan said, “I don’t mind transferring all assets to her name after marriage, but if you need more reassurance, I can sign a contract that dictates me to leave all assets behind in the case of a divorce.” Lola whipped her head around to look at Logan, visibly surprised by the outrageous terms he laid out for himself. However, it still made sense as Logan never really cared much for material wealth. Meanwhile, Langdon was staring at Logan intently while asking pointedly, “Will you be able to do that?” Lola quickly interjected, “Don’t do that, Dad. We don’t need to go that far.” However, Logan reached out to hold her hand in his before intertwining their fingers. “I am a man of my word, so I will do it.” Although unsure if he would actually do so, Logan’s unyielding attitude managed to reassure Langdon. After all, he was still rather fond of Logan. A moment’s silence later, he switched topics. “What is that wine
that you brought? I’ve never seen them.” Logan quickly realized Langdon was trying to ease them out of the interrogation phase, so he handed him the wine with haste. “They were imported wine which I sell in my clubhouse.
You can give them a taste. If you find them to your liking, I can bring more, as I have quite a lot in my stock.” Checking out the wine, Langdon didn’t actually understand what was written on it, but he could feel how high-end it was just by looking at the packaging. With a sullen look on his face, he put the wine down by his side. “I will be disappointed if they aren’t to my liking.” Without warning, Lola began laughing. “You seemed to enjoy even the cheapest alcohol though.” Langdon was practically staring daggers at her. “Your mother wouldn’t believe me when I told her we might be marrying you off. I should’ve shown her how you’re behaving. Do you even listen to what you say? Are you that eager to marry this guy?” novelbin
