After the subordinate assured them, Lola felt more relaxed and confident. Logan called her over to take a seat at the sofa, telling her, “No problem. You don’t need to worry about the situation. It’s going to be settled soon.”
He sounded like he was the one doing the repair job. Still, she stood at the entrance and watched on for a bit before taking a bottle of water from the fridge, which she handed to Logan. He took the bottle and weighed it in his hand. “What about your boyfriend? Why didn’t you give him a call?”
She leaned against the sofa and finally sounded calmer. “We haven’t put a label on our relationship yet. During the blind date, we got along well, but we didn’t have any chance to learn about each other. That’s why I could not ask him to help me.”
Before this, she had called a few colleagues for help, but they were either working overtime or were dealing with some issues at home. Also, some stayed too far away from her. To be honest, Lola did not want to bother Logan. However, after considering her options, she realized that her friend circle was too small and she could not find anyone else to help her.
Logan scanned her place and thought that it looked like a typical apartment of a single lady. Then, he opened the bottle and downed half of the water before standing up. “What a surprise! I didn’t know that you are good at home making.”
She replied humbly, “No, that’s not true. Don’t you think my place looks very simple compared to yours?”
He shook his head. “No, that’s different.” However, he did not elaborate on what he thought was different.
