Apparently, Lola had just come out from a shower, and she was clad in a coat on top of her casual clothes. With a bag in her hand, she strode toward Logan’s car.
Seeing this, Logan quickly opened the car door and circled around the vehicle. When the two of them met, he asked, “What’s wrong? I was about to leave. Do you have anything to tell me?”
Lola sized him up and passed the bag to him. “This is for you. My mom made it and gave it to me. However, I can’t finish all of it, and it’s wasteful to throw it away. Since you’re here, I reckon that I’ll give you some of it.”
With a disdainful expression, Logan took over the bag and opened it. However, the content was stored inside a box, so he couldn’t make out what was inside. Smacking his lips, he questioned, “What is it? I have an expensive taste in food, and I’ve tasted the best dishes in the world before. So, I won’t eat any average food. Also, you might have dropped poison in it, since you’re a treacherous woman.”
Lola glared at him. “Do you want this or not? Give it back to me if you don’t like it.”
Logan immediately kept the bag in his arms. “There’s no way you can get it back from me. It’s mine now!”
After pulling her coat tighter, Lola gazed at him and asked, “So, why are you here? Have you come here just to check on me?”
In an impatient manner, Logan waved his hand. “There’s no other reason. I’m just worried that something might have happened to you because you’ve been out of touch for the past two days.”
Lola’s expression turned milder when she heard this. “I went back to my hometown to visit my parents.” Before Logan could utter a word, she went on to say, “I had a date with a man there, and I actually think he’s a nice guy.”
Startled, Logan stared at her and questioned, “You went on a date?”
