The Returning Ex Chapter 1098

This man is such a shameless b*stard! Wouldn’t leaving be the normal reaction under such circumstances? Lola dusted her clothes and combed through her hair. Although wanting to curse at Logan, she didn’t think she could do it under the current atmosphere as it was extremely awkward. After some thought, she went to the kitchen instead.

Standing in the living room, Logan spent some time schooling his emotions before heading toward the kitchen to observe Lola while the latter was prepping the ingredients for cooking. With how adept she was, it was apparent that she knew how to cook. Meanwhile, Logan rested his hand on his chest to calm himself, all the while wondering why he was getting agitated. It wasn’t until a while later that he approached her to ask, “Do you need any help?”

Lola froze momentarily before replying, “No, I don’t.” Such feelings of uneasiness never surfaced whenever she was with Logan, but she could obviously feel it now. Her heart was racing when she recalled the sight of Logan hovering above her and looking into her eyes.

Never had she ever observed Logan’s face up close, not even when she was pressing him against the table or locking his arms back then for multiple times. However, she got to look at him so closely just a few moments ago. He always seemed like a hooligan, which was perhaps due to the expression he normally wore, but he wasn’t in fact ugly. Instead, he was actually quite handsome.

Lola mentally hissed at herself, as she wasn’t sure why she would think about those. Seeing that Logan had a girlfriend, her imagination was only going to make things hard for herself. Taking a few deep breaths, Lola quickly redirected her attention to meal prepping and cooking, whereas Logan stood watching by the entrance without taking a step away.

If he were being honest with himself, Logan didn’t quite understand why he was feeling both pleasant and all pumped-up when he observed her. Different from when she was brawling with him, he liked Lola better when she wasn’t as prickly. In the meantime, Logan didn’t notice that he was smiling, nor

did he notice the gentle gaze he held. All he knew was that he liked standing there and watching Lola no matter what she was doing.

As they only had two people, Lola didn’t cook a lot, so they only had a veggie dish, a meat dish and a pot of soup. Although she never liked Logan, she also acknowledged that she did care about him to some extent, as she would normally only make a single dish for her own meals. Well, I’ve made two dishes and a soup for him, so I guess this counts as making it up to him, I guess? she thought. Due to the awkward atmosphere between them after what happened, they ate in silence, with Logan consuming most of the food and soup as a sign of his appreciation for Lola’s hospitality.

After the meal, Logan’s phone rang, but he didn’t actually need to check to know who was calling. He wiped his mouth before leaving for the balcony and fished his phone out, only to see that it was indeed ringing with a call from Jasmine. Picking it up, he asked of her intentions, but Jasmine hadn’t called for any particular reason other than wanting to know what he was up to. After a grunt, Logan told her, “I just had dinner.”

On the other end of the call, Jasmine gave a nod, but she didn’t think to ask who he had dinner with. She told him she was watching some drama on TV at home out of boredom. However, Logan wasn’t interested in what she was doing, so he said, “Alright, I will be hanging up if there’s nothing of importance.”

Assuming that Logan was busy, Jasmine agreed. “Alright, go work on your stuff.”
