Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 1225


Startled, Logan asked, “Do you like these?”

Lola never tried them, so she could only say, “Let’s give it a try.”

Full of confidence, Logan replied, “Allow me to keep you company. I bet you will be scared later on.”

However, that couldn’t be any further from the truth. Either it was because Lola was the brave and adventurous type, or her previous job groomed her for stressful situations, she didn’t even break a sweat, seemingly almost unaffected even after two rounds of the games.

On the other hand, Logan wasn’t faring so well. He led a sheltered life, and he wasn’t accustomed to manual labor, so he never needed to physically exert himself. Thus, after a ride on the roller-coaster and gravitron, his knees were about to give out. With his face pale and heart racing, he had to lean against a tree at the exit for support while he was catching his breath, whereas Lola patted him on his back. “I wasn’t expecting someone like you to be afraid of this. Man up!”

Waving his hand, Logan stubbornly denied her claim. “Who’s afraid of this?! I’m not afraid at all! I just...” He hesitated for a moment before continuing, “My stomach feels weird! We’re being thrown all over the place while on the roller coaster and gravitron, so my stomach isn’t feeling that great. That’s all.”

Upon hearing what he said, Lola chuckled, but she didn’t expose his lie as she knew he was trying to save his dignity. After some rest, Lola was ready for another game. She didn’t actually need Logan to come with her, so Logan could in fact wait for her outside, but he insisted on keeping her company despite his fear. “No, I have to go with you.”

Turning to look at him, Lola didn’t have it in herself to mock him, so she asked, “Aren’t you having an upset stomach? You can wait here while I play.”

However, Logan shook his head. “I know you aren’t afraid of these, but what if you somehow are? Wouldn’t it be bad if I’m not with you?”

Lola stared at him for some time before laughing. Holding onto his arm, she chirped, “Let’s go.”

While looking at the crowd in front of her, she was talking to him as she leaned against him. “Let’s try out something else later. I saw a few that seemed fun, and I’ve never gotten the chance to try those, so I would like to try them out with you.”

Unable to hold himself back, Logan pinched her face lovingly, whereas Lola turned to look at him with a smile that seemed to trigger something within him, prompting him to dip in for a kiss. Startled by his actions, Lola quickly scanned her surroundings before giving him a punch on his shoulder. “We’re in public space, you b*stard!”

Seeing that her face was red, it was apparent that she was feeling embarrassed, which Logan found attractive. While she used to be a tomboy, she was finally displaying a more feminine side to her.

Although he was getting more accustomed to the thrilling rides, Logan nearly puked when he got off this one, his heart pounding and his face completely pale. With his back hunched, he spent some time to suppress the nauseating feeling in him while Lola patted him on his back to help soothe him.

Despite how haggard he looked, Lola felt safe with him, as he was willing to keep her company even though he knew the rides would give him a hard time. Judging from his behavior, Lola figured that he should be a reliable man.
