The Returning Ex Chapter 1142

Fiona stared at Logan and nodded. “That’s good to hear.” Actually, Fiona was impressed by Logan. He was tall and sturdy, so she thought he’d win any fight he was in. If Lola does marry him, she’d be well protected. At that thought, she started looking at Logan in a loving manner, like a parent would to his or her child.

Meanwhile, Langdon had too much to drink last night, so he didn’t wake up that morning. After they had breakfast Fiona made, Lola and Logan were going to go back. Langdon was still sleeping, so Fiona heaved a sigh and sent them off. “Come over whenever you have time, Logan.” She looked at him fondly. “You’re always welcome here, so make yourself at home.”

Logan smiled. “I’ll take you up on that offer then, Mrs. Hunt.”

Fiona nodded, then she saw them off until the car was just a dot in the distance.

In the car, Lola stared at the rear-view mirror and noticed her mother kept looking at them. She clicked her tongue at that. “I don’t understand why my parents like you that much.”

Logan laughed. “Your parents have great taste. Why don’t you learn from them and date me?”

When Lola heard that, she only snorted, and Logan didn’t force her to make a choice. He liked to take it slow, and coercion was the worst strategy to take when it came to women like Lola.

He sent Lola back home before going to his club. When he came inside, he saw Lorraine coming down from the second floor, and he stopped humming. “What brings you here, Lorraine?” He quickly went up to her.

Logan’s appearance made Lorraine heave a sigh of relief. “Where were you, you brat? You didn’t even take my calls, and your employees said they don’t know where you are, so I went up to look for you. Your whole place is a mess, and I thought you’ve gotten yourself in trouble.”

Logan laughed. “My phone’s dead.” He didn’t bring his power bank, since that visit to the Hunts came up suddenly.

Lorraine glared at him. “Someone looks happy. Did something good happen?”

Logan smacked his lips. “Um, no. Everything is normal.”

At that, Lorraine looked at him suspiciously. “Dad’s discharged yesterday. Where were you anyway? I tried to call you back for dinner, but you didn’t take any calls. And then your phone was dead.”

Logan scratched his head. He didn’t hear anyone calling him the previous day, and he had forgotten about his father’s discharge. After a moment of thought, he said, “Why don’t I go back tonight then? Something came up yesterday, and it needed my attention. Can’t do anything about my phone dying, can I? Why don’t I go for dinner tonight? And I’ll bring someone along to make it up.”

Lorraine frowned. “Someone’s coming with you? Is it your girlfriend? Oh, Miss Hunt, huh?”

Logan chuckled and said nothing, though that was the same as saying yes.

Then, Lorraine patted his shoulder. “Sure. If you’re coming home with your girlfriend, then we’ll let this slide, but you’re getting it if you aren’t.”

Lola went to the gym that afternoon and stayed until dusk, and then she wanted to go to the supermarket.
