Lola froze up after reading the last page. The lady went to the hospital once, and she had an appointment with the obstetrician. After that, she stayed in the hospital for a few days. Even though Lola had no experience in dating, she knew what happened. The lady must have gotten an abortion. Pressing her lips together in exasperation, she closed the document before handing it back to Logan.
Logan took it back and rolled it up before putting it aside. “I don’t think you can let this slide,” he said calmly. “You’d better consider this further. Someone who ditches his girlfriend when she needs him can’t be a good guy.”
Lola massaged her forehead, looking frustrated, but she took his advice. “I’ll find a time and ask him about it.”
At this, Logan said nothing more; it would be ill-advised for him to opine more on the matter. After that, he stayed in the office until noon before going out for lunch with Lola.
Halfway through their meal, Lola’s phone rang. Since her phone was on the table, Logan managed to see the caller ID and saw that the call was from her father.
The call took her by surprise, but Lola picked it up quickly. Logan couldn’t hear what Lola’s father was saying, but from the looks of it, Shawn had gone to the Hunt Residence, and Lola’s father wanted her there.
Judging from the situation, Shawn most probably had gone to talk with the Hunt couple after failing to convince Lola to date him. All this while, Lola’s parents had wanted her to marry, and after Shawn had expressed his wish to do so, they accepted his request. Knowing what had happened, Lola stiffened up, and she was reluctant to go back.
