Chapter 1125
Meanwhile, Shawn’s expression got increasingly awry while observing them from across them. Uponlaying eyes on him, Lola’s heart skipped a beat before she quickly moved away from Logan. “My fatherwill likely beat the crap out of you if you do that.”
While maintaining his smile, Logan retorted, “We’ll see if that will happen, or will he in fact invite me intothe house for a meal with much zest.” novelbin
Lola knew she couldn’t win against Logan when it came to bickering, so she decided to remain silent.On the other hand, Shawn calmed himself down before telling Lola that his family would like to putdown a date for their wedding as soon as possible. Therefore, his purpose for visiting was to ask Lola ifshe had time to dine with members of both families.
Startled, Lola questioned, “Isn’t this a little rushed?”
However, Shawn only smiled at her before disagreeing with her. “I don’t think so. We’ve known eachother for a while by this point, so this is the customary procedure.”
Since they met on a blind date, it was true that they should be progressing at a faster pace, somarriage was in fact the next logical step. However, Lola was slightly averse to the idea, as she wasn’tfamiliar with Shawn yet. She refused to settle down with someone whom she didn’t know a lot about,so she declined, “I will be a little busy with work, so I need more time.”
Shawn wasn’t about to give up that easily though. “It won’t take a lot of time. All we need to do is to gohome, have a meal with both our parents, and that will be about it.”
Pursing her lips, she gave a vague reply. “I’ll check on my schedule before coming to a decision.” Loladidn’t promise him anything, as she wanted to keep her options open.
Shawn stared at her for a while before nodding. “Alright, we’ll go according to your pace.”
Holding onto his glass, Logan observed Shawn with a smug expression on his face. Since he insistedon staying, the three of them spent an awkward hour on the sofa. It wasn’t until Lola told them that shehad to retire due to the late hour that Shawn stood up. “Sorry for bothering you. We will be taking ourleave now.” What he said was in fact directed at Logan.
Judging from his current relationship with Lola, Logan would most likely be chased out of the houseeven if he stayed, so he had no plans to stay after Shawn left. No longer intent on competing withShawn, he left Lola’s house after bidding her goodbye.
Upon arriving at the corridor, Shawn called out to Logan, the smile on his face long since faded whenhe spoke. “You should know that Lola and I are a couple who might be married soon. Mr. Jefferson, it’simmoral to intervene with someone else’s relationship. Since we’re all grown ups, I suppose you’llunderstand what I mean.”
Nodding, Logan shot back, “While I know what you mean, are you certain that there is any semblanceof love between you? How could I interfere with a relationship when there was none to begin with?”After that, he left for his car, but continued on, “Your relationship with Lola remains ambiguous, soneither are we certain who is the third party in this relationship.” Upon finishing his sentence, he wavedhis hand at Shawn without turning around, his stance casual yet at the same time a sight for sore eyes.
Instead of driving away after getting into his car, Logan made a call. When the call connected, he
sounded furious when he spoke into his phone. “Start an investigation on this guy! And make sure tooverlook nothing! The more thorough you are, the better!”
