Next One Is a Babe novel Chapter 869

vA few seconds later, Logan responded with an angry voice. “You know what? That b*tch really just likes to make me look like a clown! I swear I’m going to wreck her gym one day! That b*tch had better watch out for the rest of her life.”

Meanwhile, Sophia couldn’t control herself and burst into laughter. “You’re taking it a little too far, Logan. Why must you pick on Lola out of all the officers who have given you a hard time?”

Logan opened his eyes wide and said, “What do you mean I’m taking it too far? Yeah, you’re right. There have been a number of officers who have come and given me a hard time, but she is the most stuck-up cop among them all. Every time Lola showed up, she had to pin me on the table. Darn it! No woman has ever treated me like that!”

In fact, when Lola first pinned him on the table, Logan had secretly sworn to himself that he would make this lady pay for her arrogance one day. Nevertheless, this day never came, yet Logan was humiliated by Lola again and again. At the thought of that, he could barely keep his anger contained.

As Sophia tried hard to keep a straight face, she propped her chin on the table and stared at Logan’s frustrated look. “Logan, could Lola actually be a curse that’s stuck with you for the rest of your life?”

“That’s bullsh*t!” Logan continued to say, “I tell you what. I’ll be sure to teach her a lesson sooner or later. Just wait and see!”

Sophia raised her eyebrows in disbelief. Oh gosh! This brainless brat has no idea about the odds that are stacked against him at all.

Soon, the waiter started to serve various types of dishes, even though it was agreed that they would have a simple meal. Nevertheless, the waiter didn’t seem to be surprised either, when he noticed Logan’s presence. In fact, Logan had been known for being childish since he grew up in a family of ladies who spoiled him until the salt wouldn’t save him.

Meanwhile, John called back home and realized that Old Mrs. Constance and William had taken lunch. As William was the one who answered the call, he responded with a nonchalant grunt. “I knew you wouldn’t come back and join us.”

John pulled William’s leg and made a joke. “Are you saying that you regret that? Because if you had known I wasn’t coming back, you would have gone for lunch with Mom.”

William responded with an apathetic grunt and hung up the call. After that, he stood at the door, hesitating for a while before he gave Matilda a call. In the meantime, Matilda had a word with her mother at the Flintstone Residence about her relationship with William.

At that moment, Matilda didn’t seem comfortable, realizing that she was to blame for her divorce from William. Now that she had learned from her mistakes and was reconciled with William, everything seemed to be just on track to her.

Nevertheless, Old Mrs. Flintstone didn’t see eye to eye with her on that because she wasn’t happy with the Constance Family’s adamant attitude about the divorce. Although Matilda might be at fault, the Constance Family had treated her a little too harshly. Therefore, she didn’t think they deserved to be the ones to decide whether William and Matilda should remarry.

However, this didn’t change her impression of William. Instead, she was just afraid that the Constance Family would take advantage of Matilda’s easy-going nature by making the ultimate call about remarrying. For that, she feared that this wouldn’t be beneficial to Matilda’s future.

Matilda’s mother tried to advise her by saying, “I think you could really try to work things out with Richard. Although he may not be as well off as William, it seems to me that he is quite a reliable man. In fact, he is also a thoughtful man, just like William.”

Upon hearing that, Matilda felt helpless as she had been explaining to Old Mrs. Flintstone again and again that things wouldn’t work out for her and Richard. Nonetheless, the old lady refused to give in and insisted that her daughter wouldn’t know without trying.
