The Returning Ex Chapter 1145

That only made Lola more uneasy, for bringing gifts or a simple visit wasn’t something a friend would do.

Lorraine was already waiting at the doorstep, and she welcomed Lola with even more gusto than the previous time, scaring her. Actually, she knew Lorraine back when she arrested Logan over his club operations. She was always the one who bailed him out, though Lorraine didn’t remember her. When Lola saw the other lady, she forced a smile and greeted her. “Hi.”

Lorraine held her hand and patted it. “Oh, you’re finally here! We’re all waiting for you.”

All the Jefferson ladies were already inside, and Logan’s father was wearing a red robe while sitting in the center of the living room, looking solemn.

For some reason, Lola was reminded of Logan’s visit to her house. Her father told his tales loudly and kept drinking with Logan, which was totally different from the Jeffersons. Lola had gone to big residences during her days in the force, but she still felt nervous standing in the living hall of Jefferson Residence.

Lorraine dragged her to the sofa. Surprisingly, she was even more of a chatterbox than Logan was, and she introduced her to her father and her sisters.

Apparently, Old Mr. Jefferson liked Lola. Well, as long as Logan got himself a girlfriend, he’d like them all the same.

The other ladies didn’t pester Lola about anything, for they didn’t want to scare her away, since it wasn’t every day Logan could get a girlfriend. All they did was ask her about her job and whether Logan was annoying her. “Tell us if he’s been pestering you. We’ll rip a new one on him.”

Logan sat beside Lola, looking delighted. “You guys are underestimating her. If I annoy her, she’d kick my arse.”

“D*mn right she should.” Logan’s father pointed at him as he spoke. “I could have lived to two hundred, but this brat managed to cut it in half by annoying the crap out of me. Do you know how long I’ve waited for someone who can keep him in check to come along? Kick his arse whenever you can.” Old Mr. Jefferson was quite funny, and Lola started losing a bit of the tension.

Lynett, the oldest of the sisters, looked at Lola. “We’ve been spoiling Logan all these years, and he turned out to be a brat. But since we’re getting busier, we don’t have time to teach him a lesson, so do it for us. You don’t have to feel nervous. Just do what you have to. We’ll support you for sure.”

Logan looked at Lola. “See? I told you I’m adopted. Even if I’m not, I bet I’m just here so my sisters can beat the heck out of me.”

A smile appeared on Lola’s lips. Now, she thought the Jeffersons were different from the other rich families she came across; at least they were sincere and didn’t look down on her.

After a while, the servant came out of the kitchen and announced that dinner was ready.

The ladies quickly took Lola toward the dining room. “We don’t know what you like, so we did it according to our tastes. Tell us what your favorite food is, and we’ll make it the next time you’re here.”

Lola quickly replied, “I’m not picky, so everything’s fine by me.”
