With a smile, Logan took a seat beside his father and patted his back. “Don’t be so angry. Come on, it’s bad for your health.”
Still incensed, Old Mr. Jefferson chided, “Go away.”
Catching a glimpse of the bag Logan had placed on the table, Lydia inquired, “What is it? Have you brought it for Dad?”
Logan hurriedly denied. “No! My friend gave it to me.”
Hearing that, Lydia chuckled and went over to open the bag. Seeing the content in the container, she asked in surprise, “Why did your friend give you this?”
The Jeffersons had never had preserved meat before because it wasn’t delicate enough for them.
After shooting her a look, Logan rose from the couch and snatched it back. “Don’t look if you don’t like it. It’s very delicious.”
With a meaningful smile, Lydia stared at her brother without saying anything.
Feeling energetic, Old Mr. Jefferson took his son’s hands and said, “Logan, you’re a mature man now.”
As soon as he finished his words, the others in the living room understood what their father meant.
After a sigh, Logan remarked, “I’m still young.”
Old Mr. Jefferson went on to say, “Yes, you are young, but you need a girl by your side.”
Old Mr. Jefferson let out a long sigh. “I’m worried exactly because I’m afraid that those girls will only have their eye on you for your good looks and wealth. Don’t you understand that you’re a loathsome man?”
Hearing his father’s harsh remark, Logan stiffened. With a displeased expression, he stared at his father. “Dad, am I even your biological son? Don’t you feel embarrassed to remark on your son in such a way?”
Trying to knock some sense into his head, Old Mr. Jefferson continued, “It’s because you’re my son that I have to tell you the truth. Logan, you have to face reality. It’s really hard for any girl to fall in love with you. Those who have their eye on you are only interested in your appearance and wealth. Without the social status bestowed on you from your family, what do you think is left of you?”
His mean words were like sharp daggers that had been jabbed into Logan’s heart.
With a long face, Logan rebuked, “Others always say that I resemble you the most, so how could you remark on me in such a way?”

So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
