The Returning Ex Chapter 1188

Without waiting for Lola to reply, Logan who was beside her let out a sigh. “I was just thinking of drinking with you, Mr. Hunt.”

How shameless! Does he have any shame? At the end of her rope, Lola gave him a swift kick that landed on his calf though she didn’t put much strength into it.

Logan wailed mournfully while grinning, but Mr. Hunt shot her a glare at the side. “You’re getting increasingly rude, girl.”

Snorting, Lola spun around and stomped back to her room.

The man Logan sought out was very much efficient, giving Logan a call and informing him that everything was settled when he’d done as ordered. Logan thanked him, to which the man countered with a chuckle, “It’s nothing. If you regard me as a friend, Young Master Jefferson, then no thanks are needed.” Logan then asked him to visit his clubhouse next time when he was free, saying that it’d be his treat. They both exchanged some pleasantries before hanging up the phone.

Putting his cell phone away, the corners of Logan’s mouth curled into a sneer. It feels quite a waste for me to have him sort that coward, Shawn Long, out!

Since Lola saw him answering the call and vaguely heard some of the conversation, she could more or less guess what it was about. Thus, when Mr. Hunt was distracted, she sidled over to him. “Did you ask someone to sort Shawn out?”

Logan turned and stared at her. “Shouldn’t I?”

“You truly did so?” Lola hissed. “Did you ask someone to beat him up? I don’t think that’s necessary. It’ll be scandalous if it were to get out.”

Logan guffawed. “What are you thinking? Am I such a violent person? I’m not going to beat someone up when it’ll affect my image. Don’t worry. Shawn won’t go around spreading it even if whatever I do were to get out of hand considering his ego.” Rather, he might try his level best to conceal it and keep it under wraps.

Still, Lola felt that it was rather rotten to have him straightened out just because of a failed blind date. It’s not such a huge grudge or grievance.

Lifting a hand, Logan pinched her cheek. “Considering his dogged attitude, he’ll continue pestering you if you show him mercy. Trust me.”

Lola pursed her lips. He’s right about this. Shawn suffered a defeat with me, so he’s adamant about regaining victory. I want to compromise, but my hands are tied in this matter. In the end, she didn’t continue debating with him. She knew that she couldn’t win against him, so she gave up.

In the evening, the Longs came again, as expected. This time, they didn’t bring the matchmaker along; it was just the three of them who came bearing gifts. Their attitude now was totally different from how it was this morning. As soon as Mrs. Long stepped in, she called out, “Are you all at home, Mrs. Hunt?”

Her friendly demeanor shocked the Hunts. She’d just left in the morning while cursing us out, but she now came back in the afternoon itself, acting all amicable at that! Could she be possessed? Mr. Hunt again rushed out. Lifting his hand, he pointed a finger at all three of them. “Why are you here again? Buzz off!”

Despite having been lambasted, the Longs weren’t at all angered. In fact, Mrs. Long was still all smiles. “You misunderstand, Mr. Hunt. We’re here to apologize this time. It was indeed rash of us to have come over in the morning, so we should apologize to you. We’re really sorry.”

Taken aback, Mr. Hunt’s brows creased. What exactly do they mean by this?

Meanwhile, Mr. Long came over as well, apologizing profusely.
