Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie) novel Chapter 1016

Logan looked at Lisa sleeping peacefully on the big rock, basking in the sun. He couldn't resist snapping a photo with his phone.

Hearing the click, her eyes flew open, and she sat up abruptly, spotting Logan with his phone in hand. She was stunned. "Uncle Logan!"

He calmly put his phone away and walked over. "You're good at finding quiet spots, huh? Came all the way here for that?"

She laughed. "No matter where I go, I can't escape your reach. Are you a wizard or something? Is there a tracking device on me?"

"What are you doing here? Don't like the crowd at home?" he asked.

"Yeah, those relatives only know how to ask questions I don't want to answer. I'm not in the mood to deal with them," she said frankly, lying back down without hesitation.

"You've always been like this," Logan said, sitting on the edge of the rock. "I'm surprised you still remember this place."

"I'm a nostalgic person. I remember people and things from the past clearly," Lisa said. She raised her hand to shield her eyes from the sun. Then, with a playful touch, she spread her fingers, letting the sunlight filter through—just like she used to do as a child.

"By the way, why are you here? Where's Aunt Joelle?" she asked.

Logan didn't answer. Lisa tilted her head to look at him. "You should head back. I can barely handle those relatives—and I'm family. Leaving her alone there wouldn't be right."

"I already sent her back," he said, surprising her.

"You sent her back? Wasn't she upset?"

He picked up a twig from the ground. "She doesn't get angry easily."

"If she never gets angry, she's head over heels for you," Lisa remarked.
