Recalling Lola’s words back then that going out together was considered a date, Logan nodded. “Okay. I’ll pick you up then. Where do you want to go?”
Jasmine giggled. “I don’t mind as long as you’re there with me.”
This remark of hers was considered sweet nothings, but for some inexplicable reason, Logan felt a smidge perturbed upon hearing this. No one around him had ever said something like this to him, and every single female around him exhibited disdain toward him. Thus, he was truly unaccustomed to such fawning adoration all of a sudden.
The private room door was ajar, but still, the attendant outside knocked cautiously while averting his gaze. “Is it an opportune time for me to enter, Young Master Jefferson?”
Frowning, Logan straightened. “Why would it be inopportune when the door is open?”
Only then did the attendant poke his head in for a look. Then, he chortled. “Well, I was merely inquiring, afraid that I’d intrude on the two of you.” As he said this, he carried in a fruit tray and some tea.
Jasmine hurriedly sat up straight and smoothed her hair. While nothing happened between them, it was still somewhat embarrassing if someone else were to witness her plastering herself to Logan as she did earlier.
Logan, on the other hand, felt nary a thing. He looked on as the attendant placed the tray down before remarking, “Someone from the Jordan Family will be coming over today, to which I said to reserve a private room the other day. Everything is ready, yes?”
The attendant promptly nodded. “Don’t worry, Young Master Jefferson. Everything is in place.”
Jasmine nodded. “Yup. When you’re with me, you’re serious most of the time.”
After mulling it over for a while, Logan merely nodded without saying anything further.
Jasmine felt that she couldn’t allow an awkward silence to reign between them, so she started jabbering about their date this Saturday. She spoke of an amusement park here which she’d been yearning to visit yet never done so because of either clashing schedules or her reluctance to go due to the lack of a companion. She then admitted that she wanted to go there with him this Saturday, even confessing smilingly, “I’ve always thought of going to the amusement park for the very first time with my boyfriend. Never had I thought that it’ll really come true.”
Logan murmured an acknowledgment, but unbidden, his thoughts wandered. He mainly thought of the matter with the Bailey Family. Ernest Bailey’s birthday isn’t something the Bailey Family has been particularly concerned about. Never once had his birthday been a big deal, and they’d never even publicized it, merely celebrating it behind closed doors. Even if they’re having a huge celebration this time, there was absolutely no need for them to make such a big fuss.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
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...
