Lola chortled, yet she didn’t decline. “Okay. I’ll be counting on your connections in the future.”
Logan didn’t ponder on the meaning of this remark. He merely grunted and reassured her by saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll have you making a killing.”
Logan’s car was parked in front of the clubhouse, and he drove Lola straight back to her house. After alighting from the car, Lola initially wanted to wave at him and bid him goodbye, but he climbed out of the car as well. Seizing Sophia’s remark from earlier, he said, “It’s not safe in the corridors, so I’ll see you up to your doorstep.”
Lola stared at him for a few heartbeats, seemingly a touch exasperated. However, she didn’t refuse in the end. “Alright, then.”
The two of them then entered the elevator, and Lola pressed the button for her floor. After a moment’s deliberation, Logan asked, “Did that Shawn Long contact you further?”
Lola stilled without replying immediately, so he could more or less guess the answer. Frowning, he looked at her. “I can’t believe he still has the nerve to contact you.”
In reality, Lola was also annoyed with Shawn. Perhaps his relationship had been smooth sailing in the past, or he was the dominant party during those three years he dated his ex-girlfriend, but he was adamant in fixing her perception of him. He was probably feeling very much humiliated at the disgraceful manner in which they broke up. Hence, he called and texted her incessantly to explain everything between him and his ex-girlfriend.
In his version, his ex-girlfriend and her family were rather greedy. Meanwhile, his parents had toiled for half their lives for his sake, so he didn’t want to burden them, claiming that the disagreement on the bride price stemmed from that. He also said that he was averse to pestering people, but as Lola’s misunderstanding of him was too deep, he felt that he must explain things.

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...
