The Hunts came up to them, and Fiona clicked her tongue when she saw the two of them in the yard. “They just love to show their affection, don’t they?”
Langdon gave her a glance. “It’s all good, honey. I thought Lola would never find a boyfriend with that attitude of hers.” Fiona nodded in agreement, and she left.
Once Lola was done washing herself up, she went back to help her mother with the meal prep, while Logan helped. However, it was painfully obvious that he was a klutz in cooking. Still, it was no surprise; even rich young ladies might not know how to cook, let alone the young masters.
Fiona gave him a chance, but she thought it was getting cramped in the kitchen after a while, so she chased the couple out. In response, Lola chuckled and held Logan’s arm as she dragged him out. “That’s enough, Logan. You’re more trouble than help in the kitchen anyway.”
Logan felt embarrassed, and he whispered, “You know I’m not good at cooking, but I can’t just stand there while you guys work. It’s rude.”
To that, Lola only smiled and patted his shoulder. At the same time, Langdon came back out with a shovel. Villagers usually had their own yards and garden, and the Hunts had one too. The yard was used to grow some greens.
Langdon said he wanted to loosen the soil, and Logan followed him. At the side, Lola wondered if she should go with them, though she did in the end. It was Logan’s first time seeing soil getting loosened, so he wanted to try after watching how Langdon did it. Langdon hesitated for a second before handing the shovel to him. “Here. You try it.”
Lola put her hands in her pockets and gave Logan a smirk
At first, she thought he’d fail, but contrary to her expectations, he learned how to work the soil quickly. Compared to his failure in the kitchen, at least he didn’t ruin all the vegetables that were planted in the garden. Lola pursed her lips, and the more she looked at him, the more she fell in love. She had never been this way before. Before this, it was impossible for her to feel happy just by looking at someone quietly like this. Langdon turned around after a while and saw Lola grinning, and her smile infected him. So I guess we’ll be entrusting her to Logan very soon then, but it’s fine. Logan’s treating her nicely, and he doesn’t seem to think lowly of us. Langdon wasn’t worried now that someone was taking good care of his daughter. Then, Fiona called them back in for lunch. They washed their hands before that, but someone came to visit before they even took their seats. Lola sighed. Logan’s like an exotic animal now.
Everyone in the village wants a piece of him. Logan smiled and shook his head. Of course, he disliked being barraged by questions. If it were the old him, they would have gotten it, but he couldn’t embarrass the Hunts, so he went with it. A different group of neighbors came visiting
this time, and they were rowdy. “We heard Lola came back with her boyfriend to discuss their marriage, so we want to see who he is.” They didn’t beat about the bush, and that was commendable, but Lola was still frustrated about it. I’ll bet the rumors are going to change again in a few seconds. Langdon felt embarrassed too, and he looked at Logan first before answering as calmly as he could, “The marriage isn’t happening that soon. We’ll have to meet his parents and go through the details.”
