The Returning Ex Chapter 1177

On the other end, Mr. Hunt’s voice was hesitant as he said, “I’d like a confirmation of your decision. I’m worried that you were merely blinded by rage when you rejected Shawn Long back then, but if you’re really not interested in pursuing a relationship with him, I’ll be firmer in my rejection next time. I didn’t dare rebuff them so resolutely the few times they came over, afraid that you might change your mind.”

Lola looked up and gazed at Logan again while replying to her father, “I’ll never get back with him, so if they go again, just reject it directly on my behalf. I hadn’t taken much of a liking to him even back when I was in the dark about his misdeeds, so I’m all the more detached now after learning about it all.”

Mr. Hunt was a touch delighted, making it clear that he didn’t like Shawn either. “Sure, sure. I’ll kick them out if they come over again.” After saying that, his voice turned sly. “What about that Logan kid? Are the two of you still in contact? I think he looks quite decent, so he must be a good man.”

Lola hesitated for a moment before admitting it. “He’s right outside my office door now. He’s indeed quite a decent person, but he’s got tons of flaws as well.”

Mr. Hunt wasn’t at all bothered. “Ah, all young people have some flaws. As long as he’s upright, everything else is secondary. You just need to consider whether his flaws contrast with your principles. Minor flaws are inevitable, for even we ourselves have flaws.”

Lola laughed. “Why are you telling me all this? You make it sound as though I’m going to date him.”

On the other end, Mr. Hunt guffawed without saying anything in response. However, both of them understood his underlying meaning.

A hint of unease rose within Lola. “Alright, alright. I’m hanging up if there’s nothing else. As for taking leave, I’ll make some arrangements and go home when I’m free.” She then breathed a long sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

Actually, Dad isn’t really an easy-going person. He has a lot of requirements. There are plenty of young men my age in the village, yet he didn’t take a liking to any of them, either finding their posture, voice, or dressing offensive. Or else, he would take offense to their principles. Anyway, he doesn’t think anyone is worthy of his daughter. The only reason he simply agreed to Shawn was because of his kindly countenance that had him looking decent.

At that point, she turned to look at Logan. But why did he take a shine to the man outside the door? Anyone with decent judgment probably wouldn’t fancy him, what with his scoundrelly attitude. So, why is Dad behaving contrarily in this matter?

Logan had no inkling that she was contemplating so many things over there. When he’d finished his game, he turned back to look at her, only to see her spacing out while staring at him. All at once, he grinned. Getting to his feet, he stretched before pushing open the door and walking into her office. “Why are you surreptitiously gazing at me? Just call out to me if you want to see me, and I’ll present myself before you so that you can stare to your heart’s content.”

Lola sucked in a breath. He indeed loved making equivocal and suggestive remarks in the past, but he’s never been this cheesy. Why does it sound so nauseating?

After spending the entire afternoon there, Logan took Lola out for dinner at night. Considering his background, he definitely patronized high-end places, so Lola chortled as she followed him. “If I weren’t with you, I probably wouldn’t be stepping foot in such a place in my entire life,” she commented.

Logan turned and looked at her, his voice exceedingly serious. “If you’re with me always, I’ll bring you to such places every day in the future.”
