Chapter 1158
Upon acknowledging, Lola didn’t really intend to sleep at first, but after lying down for a little while, shefell asleep in a daze. However, she didn’t sleep too well. Halfway asleep, she heard someone knockingon the door, which woke her up immediately.
Hearing that, Logan headed to open the door, and stood still right at the doorway. From the bed, Lolacould hear that a man was serving them some drinks and snacks. Taking the tray from him, Logandidn’t allow the man a chance to take a peek at Lola’s direction. As soon as the man left, Logan lockedthe door once again and placed the snacks, as well as juices, on top of the coffee table.
When they got into the room, there wasn't anything to eat or drink. After a while later, they did feel kindof thirsty. Offering the glass of juice to Lola, Logan said, “Drink some.”
Taking a sip of the juice, Lola felt that it was too sweet for her liking. Considering she was never a fanof sweet stuff, she only took a sip.
Seeing that there was also another cup of tea on the tray, Logan finished half of the cup in a gulp.Initially, he intended to call for someone to serve something over, as he was already feeling thirsty.
Just then, John called over to check on them, making sure that everything was alright. Chuckling,Logan joked, “I think they have forgotten about us.” novelbin
Heaving a sigh of relief, John said that Ernest had been pestering him. It seemed that Ernest had muchto talk about, thus had been yakking his head off. Seeing that, John couldn’t help but suspect whetherhe was instructed to do so by Old Mr. Bailey or he was naturally this passionate. But one thing for sure,John couldn’t excuse himself easily.
Not only had Ernest been rambling about, but he had also invited several other business partners tojoin in the conversation and share about their experiences in managing business. As they were mostlyseniors in the industry, John couldn’t turn them down all at once, for it would be rather disrespectful.
For that reason, plastering a smile on his face, John spoke courteously, but without much sincerity.Nonetheless, this wasn’t what they had expected at first, so John reminded Logan to be on the alert.
As for John, he promised to keep an eye on Old Mr. Bailey as well as Elder Mr. Bailey. If he noticedanything strange, he would send Logan a warning. With that, both of them had come to an agreementand hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Lola was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed. Holding his phone in his hand, Logandidn’t feel like continuing with his game. As there was nothing much to do, Logan surfed the Internet fornews.
Scanning through his phone, Logan felt a little drowsy all of a sudden. He did have quite a late nightyesterday, and woke up earlier than usual today.
Lightly punching on his forehead, Logan tried to keep himself awake, but failed to do so. Without awarning, Logan felt a surge of drowsiness overtook him. Lying down on the couch, Logan shut his eyesand fell asleep in the next second, his phone slipping out of his hand eventually.
At the same time, Lola didn’t notice anything unusual and gradually fell asleep once again.
In the meantime, Sophia was sitting in the car with her phone in her hands, staring at the mainentrance of the Bailey Residence. A moment ago, John dropped her a quick call to assure her that
everything was fine.
Hearing that, Sophia felt her heart eased up a little, but not long later, she saw a car slowly driving outof Bailey Residence. With the car windows shut tight, she could barely see who was sitting in the car.Once the car made its way out of the main entrance, Sophia managed to catch a glimpse of two men,who were impeccably dressed while seated at the driver and front passenger seat.
