Since he had done whatever he could to compensate Jasmine, he didn’t think he owed her anythingelse. When they were waiting for their meal, Logan asked if Lola contacted her father last night, and ifthe latter said anything about him.
Smiling, Lola asked, “How did you know we spoke to each other last night?”
Logan heaved a sigh before replying, “It’s not that hard to guess that you had been talking behind myback.”
After some thought, Lola said, “It’s nothing that you need to feel concerned about. It’s just that you’retoo rich, so my father was worried that you would mistreat me in the future.”
Logan moved closer to her. “So was he telling you to keep your distance from me?”
Lola nodded slowly after recalling their conversation, as she supposed it was true. In short, her fathertold her that Logan and her were incompatible, so she shouldn’t get too close with him.
Chuckling, Logan held her hand in his hand before pinching on it deliberately, whereas she retracted itafter letting out a harrumph.
Jasmine, however, took in all their interactions from where she sat, recognizing it as something thatnever existed between Logan and herself. Never once did Logan smile at her so happily, nor did heever look at her so lovingly.
Although Jasmine already told herself to look away, she couldn’t help but stare. Both Logan and Lolawere smiling happily, and Logan seemed like a totally different person after his aloofness melted away.novelbin
Not only was Jasmine feeling uneasy about it, but she felt increasingly so as time passed.
In the beginning, the sight of them merely grated on her nerves, but the feeling of irritation swelled untilit had nowhere to go. After finishing their meal, Jasmine and her colleagues paid for the bill and stoodto leave. Before leaving, she glanced at Logan one final time, only to see him putting some food intoLola’s plate, his expression gentle, his eyes almost shining. The sight caused Jasmine to whip herhead around to leave with her colleagues.
On the other hand, Logan didn’t seem to notice her at all. After they finished their meal, they paidbefore leaving, only to see Jasmine standing across the street as soon as they stepped out of therestaurant. She had her hands in her pockets, and seemed to have been standing there for a long time.
After mulling over the situation, Lola gave Logan a tap on his arm. “I suppose she is waiting for you, soyou should go meet her.”
However, Logan looped his arm around her shoulder and pulled her into an embrace. “Not gonna dothat. I already told her everything that I needed to, so there’s nothing else that we have to deal with inprivate.” While Logan seemed cruel, on the flip side, his attitude toward Jasmine made Lola feelsecure, so she didn’t protest when Logan led them both into the car.
On the other hand, anxiety kicked in when Jasmine noticed that neither Logan nor Lola approached herdespite having noticed her. Breaking into a sprint, she tried to catch up to Logan’s car, but it alreadydrove off.
Unable to withhold herself, Jasmine cried out in the direction of his car, “Logan! Logan!” However, hedidn’t seem to hear her, as the car sped away without dallying.
