Chapter 882
Logan was indeed a master at creating the perfect atmosphere—he ordered the staff to set up a grill.Even if one was not hungry, he or she could take a few bites along with the others, and barbequealways went well with alcohol. The three of them went up and sat down around the table.
Ian poured some juice for Sophia and said, “When I first left for the training, everything was still fine.After my return, I found out that you’re going to be a mother. I’m not even sure if I should be happy foryou or feel sad for myself.”
His words made her feel uncomfortable and awkward. Therefore, she lifted her glass of juice, lookingstraight at him. “I have always considered you as a good friend. You always show up when I’m at mylowest point, and you lend an ear to the hidden feelings that I have never shared with anyone else.From that moment onward, Ian, you have become a special existence in my life. But…”
She looked down at the glass in her hand and gulped the juice in one go. Since she was prohibitedfrom consuming alcohol, she substituted it with juice. “But my heart belongs to someone else.”
Yes, it was true that her heart belonged to someone else. Although the man was a horrible jerk, shecould not forget him.
The first awakening of love took time to die down, and one’s first love was hard to forget.
Sitting beside them, Logan stared intently at the two for a long time in silence. After a pause, Sophiaadded, “Ian, you’re a great man. You’re awesome. It’s me who is out of your league. I’m sure you’llmeet a more suitable lady.”
Ian smiled bitterly in a self-mocking fashion. “No matter how great I am, you still won't fall for me.”
She was rendered speechless by his remark. At that moment, Logan let out a sigh. “When did this thingstart between the two of you? Why did I have no idea about it?”
Of course, a dimwit like you, who only knows how to indulge in life, will never develop a keenobservation of anything.
Logan’s interference cut short the topic of conversation. Ian looked at his friend and laughed. “At first, Ithought you’d fall for Sophia.”
Stunned by the remark, Logan hurriedly waved to dismiss the possibility. “Nah, don’t ever say that. Idon’t like women at all—they are too troublesome. Whenever I see those biological beings called‘women’, I’d feel sick inside.”
Sophia did not miss the opportunity to make fun of Logan. “Ian, look out for Logan!” Logan immediatelyglared at her and announced, “I don’t like men either! Sophia Gwendolyn, don’t make that joke! I’m astraight male.”
The expression on his face became complicated as he added, “But, it’s true that the women around meare all abnormal. I’m too traumatized from dealing with them. I’d rather spend my life alone and bathein endless wealth. Isn’t that better?”
Sophia could not stand Logan’s funny comments anymore and burst out laughing. I wonder what Loladid to Logan to traumatize him!
Their dinner kicked off perfectly, and everyone was enjoying the lovely atmosphere. While chatting and
eating, Sophia suddenly recalled the tragedy of the Baileys and briefly updated the other two.
Nowadays, Logan was in no mood to keep up with the news. When Sophia told him about Dexter’sdeath, he was completely baffled. “Dead? He’s dead?”
Logan obviously had not snapped out of it yet. He met Dexter a few times—it was almost impossiblenot to know about the Young Master of the Bailey Family. In those rare meetings, he rememberedDexter as an outgoing and cheerful guy, with eyes that curved into a crescent shape when he smiled. novelbin
Since Logan had a bad impression of Isabelle, in comparison, Dexter seemed more agreeable in hiseyes. Never had he thought that a young man would pass away all of a sudden. Feeling wistful, hesighed. “That’s a pity. I think that he’s way better than his sister. I heard that Old Mr. Bailey placed allhis hopes on Dexter. Although he’s young, he’s learning a lot of things.”
