Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 1019

Following that, Sophia said to John, “Ignore him. Hang up the call now.”

Logan widened his eyes in disbelief. Is this what a friend should say? Before he could utter a word, the call was hung up from the other side.

Seated in the car, Lola gave him a disdainful look and said, “Your friends are not even willing to come out to meet you.”

Turning around to shoot her a look, he fought back by saying, “As if you have many loyal friends!”

Hearing this, Lola was rendered speechless because, just like Logan, she didn’t have many friends. It was mainly because she was an upright person.

In the past, when her relatives wanted to bribe her, she would always reject them. Some of her relatives were involved in illegal trade, so she gave them a warning and even shut down their businesses.

Also, if some of them behaved recklessly, she would educate them on the importance of civility. Hence, over the years, she had offended many people, and naturally, she was just as unpopular as Logan. I was really too quick to mock him on this.

Logan turned to look at the entrance of the shopping mall, but Jasmine was nowhere in sight. He wondered if she truly had gone shopping on her own. Then, he got into the car, closed the door, and asked, “Do you want me to send you home? Or do you have somewhere else to go?”

Leaning against the seat, Lola said, “Don’t you want to look for your girlfriend? She’s probably still inside the mall. It’s honestly inappropriate that you left her behind just like this.”

Logan waved his hand. “There’s nothing inappropriate. Since we’ve parted, why should I go look for her?”

Perhaps it’s better this way. When I was watching the movie with her, I was bored to death. In the beginning, she would always come up with many topics to warm up to me, but I wasn’t interested in the things she was talking about. It was until the movie started and when the theater hall fell silent that I could finally heave a sigh of relief. It was the first time that I felt so tired of getting along with someone. After the movie ended, she said that she wanted to go shopping with me. At that time, I was in a dilemma because I didn’t know how to reject her. Fortunately, Lola came to look for me, which was a good chance for me to leave Jasmine.

Exhausted, Lola said, “If you’re not going to look for your girlfriend, send me home then.”

Hearing this, Logan started the engine and steered his car out of the shopping mall. On the way to their destination, Lola said, “I can see that she genuinely loves you. It’s difficult for you to find a girl who doesn’t find you annoying, so you mustn’t let her go.”

Logan was unhappy with her remark because he thought that Lola wasn’t in a better situation when it came to finding a partner, therefore he questioned, “Aren’t your family members worried about it? At your age, you don’t even have a boyfriend. Is there no man who is interested in you?”

In an instant, the atmosphere turned awkward.

Lola didn’t even know what went wrong that she was rendered speechless twice by Logan this evening. She wasn’t like this in the past.

For the remaining journey, no one said anything again. Moments later, they arrived at Lola’s home.

After she got out of the car, Logan said, “I will arrange for a meeting between you and John again. However, he’s been swamped recently because Sophia is pregnant. As this is an important period in their lives, naturally, he’ll have to spend more time with his wife.”
