The Returning Ex Chapter 1096

Logan simply parked himself there. I’ll just stay here and annoy her!

Naturally, Lola knew that Logan was there, but she wasn’t in the mood to entertain him. I indeed overreacted just now, but his attitude wasn’t all that good either. For that reason, she swallowed all the explanation she was planning to offer him. Furthermore, I met his sister, Lorraine, and I feel that the way she treated me seemed off. Hence, she wanted to keep a bit of distance between them, feeling that they were a little too close at present.

Logan waited there for the entire afternoon, yet Lola didn’t even spare him a single glance. This had him feeling exceedingly irked. This woman seems to have reverted to her past indifference with me. Thus, their recently improved relationship seemingly returned to its tense state of the past overnight. He couldn’t fathom it, so he gave up figuring it out. I’ll just ask her what she’s trying to do during dinner later. Or does she not want me to protect her during Ernest Bailey’s birthday celebration? With this thought in mind, he waited until she got off work at night.

Before Lola had even finished packing up, a phone call came in from Jasmine. Since she couldn’t make it for lunch, she wanted to get together at night. After all, a dating couple would find a missed lunch date to be a huge deal. Gripping his cell phone, Logan hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’ve something to do tonight, so let’s make it tomorrow.”

Mild disappointment inundated Jasmine. “Oh, I see. What are you doing tonight? How about I wait for you?”

Logan cast his gaze in the direction of Lola’s office. Upon seeing that she was putting everything away, he answered, “I’m not sure. Anyway, don’t wait for me since it might take quite some time.”

After murmuring an assent, Jasmine then hung up reluctantly.

Putting his cell phone away, Logan sauntered over and stood by Lola’s office door. He crossed his arms and leaned against the doorframe while waiting for her.

Lola actually saw Logan, but she walked out of the office with her eyes fixed straight ahead after having packed up, ignoring him altogether. Used to such an attitude from her, Logan merely chuckled before pivoting and trailing behind her.

When Lola exited the gym, she made to hail a taxi home. Logan initially wanted to stop her and propose having dinner together, but he then nixed the idea after mulling it over for a moment. When she had hailed a taxi and climbed in, he swiftly dashed to the other side and opened the car door in a flash before squeezing himself in as well. Blowing up, Lola shot daggers at him. “Get out! Why did you get in?”

Logan then unleashed his scoundrelly attitude. “You may drive now, mister.”

Assuming that it was a lovers’ tiff, the driver chortled before driving off.

Embarrassed to have it out with Logan in front of outsiders, Lola gave him her address.

After arriving at her house in the taxi, Logan then languidly followed her to her doorstep. Lola looked over her shoulder at him. “This is me, so you can leave now.”

At this, Logan doubled over in laughter. “Did you think I was merely escorting you home? Go on and open the door so that we can go in. Are you planning to cook dinner yourself? I’ll have dinner here at your place.”

Reaching out, Lola grasped his shoulder. At the same time, she pushed him in the direction of the elevator. “Scram!”

Snickering, Logan planted his feet firmly, so she couldn’t quite move him. Then, he leaned into her. “I’m going to scream if you continue pushing me. If you’re not embarrassed, neither am I.”
