Female Novel
Chapter 1190
When the Longs had left, Mr. Hunt ordered Mrs. Hunt to lock the gate. He felt that the resentmentwithin him had dissipated, so he was grinning from ear to ear when he whirled around and returned tothe house.
Logan also wore a smile on his face. “What were these people thinking? If they’d behaved decentlyfrom the very beginning, there wouldn’t have been such a huge fuss.”
Coming over, Mr. Hunt lifted a hand and patted him on the back. “You’ve got some tricks up yoursleeve, boy! I like someone like you! If we can’t stand someone, we’ve got to put them in their place.We can’t just allow them to step all over us!”
Exasperated, Lola went out to the courtyard to help her mother with the cleaning. Dad is also the typeof person who’ll exact revenge for the smallest thing, never admitting defeat or compromising. I can’tsay that such people are bad, but life will be very tiring if one is so serious.
That night, Logan again drank with Mr. Hunt. This time, Mr. Hunt truly regarded him as family, tellinghim everything about the family at the dinner table. He told him about all the changes that’d transpiredfrom Lola’s childhood until now, not concealing anything at all. Even trivial things such as Lola beingdiscriminated against when she first started working, the disastrous missions she went on, and themany times she called home to grouse about her job weren’t exempted. In short, he blurted everysingle detail he remembered.
Lola truly wasn’t in the mood to hear all this. In fact, she wasn’t interested in hearing anything fromanyone who was three sheets to the wind. Thus, she quickly went back to her room to rest after eating.Mr. Hunt’s voice was rather booming, so she could still hear him loud and clear despite lying on her bednovelbin
in her room. She couldn’t quite put a finger on her feelings at this moment, but she seemed to be atpeace.
At this time, her cell phone that was placed at the side vibrated again. Snagging it for a look, she sawthat it was that hounding b*stard, Shawn, again. This time, however, he didn’t say anything about theirrelationship. Instead, he said that Logan probably had a powerful background, so he had to be amaster manipulator and must’ve fooled around often with girls. Thus, he wasn’t someone whom avillage girl like her could hold onto. Then, Shawn warned her that she might lose both the money andthe person if she were to get together with Logan, urging her to know the score.
Anger lanced through Lola at this. What does he mean by advising me to know the score? Who doeshe think he is? Sitting up at once, she rapidly typed out a message to Shawn. Not at all holding backher punches, she told him not to bother her anymore, hoping that he’d remember what he said thisafternoon. Also, she made it clear that whatever happened in her life henceforth had nothing to do withhim, demanding that he kept his nose out of her affairs.
Subsequently, Shawn replied with a brief sentence—I was merely saying that for your own good.Disgust swamped her upon seeing this remark. Finally understanding that it was useless to argue withsomeone like him, she used the simplest method to resolve this matter—blacklisting.
After blacklisting him, she threw her cell phone to the side. Perking up her ears, she heard the soundsof glasses clinking. Sure enough, they’re still drinking! I don’t know about Logan’s alcohol tolerance, butDad can drink someone under the table. So, if he insists on saving face and continues drinking withDad, he’ll probably end up in a worse state than the previous time. Back then, Dad held back since hemerely regarded him as a normal friend of mine, but after his series of actions today, Dad has obviouslyadopted him into the family.
