Logan seemed to be talking about irrelevant topics. He even brought up the two students in Jasmine’s class who were from good families and had good looks.
What does that have to do with him? Sophia felt that Logan had lost his composure after having a new girlfriend. This was probably why he became worse at expressing himself.
She listened to his rambling patiently until he suddenly exclaimed in a hurry, “I have to hang up now! Something’s up.”
Not only did he start the call fast, he ended it even faster. The moment he finished his sentence, the line went dead.
Sophia clutched her phone and burst out laughing. Shaking her head at his behavior, she placed her phone down.
On the other end, after ending his call with Sophia, Logan immediately picked up another call and his tone instantly changed. Smiling, he gently asked, “What’s up? Are you asking me for a favor again?”
Lola sighed on the other side. “I do have a favor to ask you.”
She sounded quite frustrated and helpless, to which he said with a chuckle, “Tell me, what happened?” The day has finally come when this girl comes to me for help!
After some hesitation, she carefully asked him, “My place is leaking and my kitchen is now flooded. I wonder if you could head over to help me out?”
Logan did not even bother to ask for the details and instantly agreed to it. “Sure. Wait for me. I’ll be there soon.”
Then, Lola hung up and stood at the kitchen entrance, staring at the pools of water on the kitchen floor.
Until now, she had no idea what happened. Not only was the drain clogged, her pipes had burst as well. The rising water in the kitchen looked murky. It was a truly unlucky day for her.
She had been dealing with it for a while. Now, she stood impatiently at the kitchen entrance with her hands on her waist.
