The Returning Ex Chapter 1365

Pouting, Lola turned and gazed at Logan. Logan initially felt that Mrs. Hunt was right, but the moment he glimpsed her pitiful expression, he went over and pulled her into his arms. Then, he patted her on the back. “It’s okay, it’s okay, we’ll talk about it later.” Subsequently, he lowered his voice. “I’ll sneak some for you later.”

Upon hearing this, Lola’s expression finally eased a fraction.

Mrs. Hunt placed the ice cream back into the freezer, her voice turning gentle. “You’ve had some today, so have a care for your body. Just wait until you’re no longer suffering from nausea, then you can have some. It’ll always be there.”

Lola nodded reluctantly. As she recalled Logan’s promise earlier, she settled down. “Okay, got it.”

Mrs. Hunt turned and went back to the dinner table. Meanwhile, Logan was still holding Lola in his arms. “Mom is right.” The moment Lola looked up at him, he instantly changed his tune, his voice filled with righteous indignation. “I’ll sneak it for you later. Wait for a while first, and I’ll sneak some for you when they’re otherwise distracted. You’re pregnant, so you’ve got to get some of everything you want to eat. Don’t worry.”

Giggling at his expression, Lola pinched him on the waist. “I want melon flavor.”

Logan nodded. “Sure, sure, anything you say.” These few words had Lola in high spirits.

Lola wanted to go out for a walk after dinner, so Logan abandoned his dinner and held her hand before taking their leave from the others in the dining room since her affairs took precedence, though he hadn’t yet finished drinking. Then, they went to the courtyard for a stroll.

Mrs. Hunt stared at Logan, shaking her head in exasperation. He whispered to Lola earlier, thinking that no one could hear him, but I heard it all. Sneak her some at night? I just can’t believe he actually

said that. Sure enough, if Lola’s care is entrusted to him, he’ll only look on while she does as she pleases.

Logan took Lola out to the courtyard to have a stroll by the fountain that housed goldfish alongside some aquatic plants. The Jeffersons are indeed wealthy to enjoy such a life. With an arm hooked around Logan’s, Lola related the jokes she saw this afternoon on the internet. The jokes weren’t all that funny, but her smile had the corners of his lips curving upward.

They both made two rounds around the fountain before heading to the backyard. There was a small garden in Jefferson Mansion though Lola had no idea what the flowers in there were since she hadn’t much romantic sense, unlike other young maidens who loved flowers. However, when they drew close to the garden, she could smell the slightly pervasive fragrance of flowers in the air. After taking two steps in that direction, she stopped short. “I can’t take it. The smell is too strong, inducing nausea.”

Logan hurriedly pulled her two steps back. “We won’t go there, then.” As he said this, he even covered her nose.

At this, Lola pushed at him. “Your acting is a bit over the top.”

Chuckling, Logan wrapped an arm around her shoulder, and they walked around for a while. A little over ten minutes later, he abruptly recalled something important. He swiftly whipped out his cell phone. “Wait a moment. I actually forgot to tell John and Sophia such a crucial matter. How remiss of me!” I was too absorbed in merrymaking today that I actually forgot to publicize this fact!

Lola shook her head with a smile. “It’s not necessary to do so deliberately, no?”

Not necessary? Logan’s eyes bugged. “Do you know how momentous this is? Of course, I’ve got to inform them with all the solemnity and seriousness in the world!”

Lola simply kept mum and allowed him to put on a show.

All geared up, Logan phoned Sophia, waiting impatiently for her to take the call. Sophia was probably sleeping, for she only answered the phone after an eternity, her voice groggy. “What’s up, Logan? Why are you calling me while on your honeymoon? Are you going to make a public display of affection through the air?”

Logan snickered with a hint of smugness. “I’m not on my honeymoon. I’m home. I came back this morning.”
