Female Novel
Chapter 1317
Fiona and Langdon didn’t mind it as well, since Logan was preparing for their daughter’s wedding.
After gulping down the soup, Logan said, “Since you’re here, no matter how busy I am, I will make timeto keep you company.” Then, he asked Lola’s parents where they were going next.
Langdon replied, “Since we’re here, we’d like to visit your father.”
Logan nodded and gladly agreed to it. “That’s wonderful. My dad has been wanting to meet both ofyou.”
After lunch, Logan brought them to the Jefferson Mansion in his car. When they pulled over at theentrance, Langdon and Fiona couldn’t believe their eyes. They knew the Jeffersons were rich, but thismansion was much grander than they thought. Compared to this mansion, the money in the bank cardthey had received was probably peanuts.
After Logan pressed on the honk, the gates of the mansion opened slowly, whereupon he moved thecar into the garage. When they got out of the vehicle, Langdon and Fiona realized that eight otherluxurious cars were parked in the same garage.
Following that, a servant, who apparently had figured out the identity of Langdon and Fiona, came overand invited them into the mansion. Looking rather nervous, Langdon and Fiona stayed beside theirdaughter. Seeing this, Lola held her mother’s arm and patted her gently.
After they entered the living room, Old Mr. Jefferson was coming down the stairs with the support ofanother servant.
Clad in casual clothes, Old Mr. Jefferson looked different from the day when he visited Lola’s home inher hometown. With a smile, he said, “Mr. Hunt, I’m so glad that you’re here. Have a seat, please.”Then, he turned to the servant beside him and ordered, “Bring some fruits and tea here.”
Gazing at the servant, Fiona was awed by the fact that the Jeffersons were rich enough to hire quite anumber of servants. After that, she turned to face her daughter and wondered how on earth the lattermanaged to attract such a rich man and eventually got married to him.
After Logan told Langdon and Fiona to have a seat, they tried their best to look calm and collected,even though they were still nervous.
Noticing the anxiety on their faces, Old Mr. Jefferson told the servants to leave the living room so thatthey could be at ease. Then, he asked with a smile, “When did you arrive?”
Without the servants around, Fiona and Langdon were visibly more relaxed, but they were still sitting inan upright manner, looking like a pair of students who were facing their teacher.
On the side, Lola was amused by the sight that her parents were answering Old Mr. Jefferson’squestion in a cautious way. Her father was normally talkative in the village, but he appeared to beanxious at the moment.
After they were done with talking about their hometown, the Jefferson ladies returned home. BeforeLorraine entered the house, the people in the living room could already hear her loud voice. “Mr. andMrs. Hunt are here? Oh, I miss them so much!”
Lorraine was a socialite, so she knew how to make the atmosphere lively.
When Langdon and Fiona turned around and saw Lorraine stepping into the living room, they heaved asigh of relief. They had a good impression of her from their previous encounter because she was politeand talkative. With her around, they could unwind a little.
A moment later, Logan’s phone started ringing. The hotel manager called to ask him how to settle aminor issue at the wedding venue.
Logan was serious about every detail of the wedding. Should any problems arise, he would solve thempersonally. So, the hotel manager didn’t dare to make the decision on his own.
Since Logan couldn’t identify what the problem was, he couldn’t give a clear order for the moment.Rising from the couch, he left the living room as he said, “Take some photos and send them to me.”
Lola raced after him and said in a hushed voice, “If you’re busy, just go back to the hotel. You don’thave to keep us company.”novelbin
