Lola was utterly famished, feeling like she could easily devour a cow. Leaning against the sofa, she turned to look at Logan. The latter was telling his men to be quick as he wanted his food hot when Lola reached out to hold his ear. Then, she was suddenly reminded of when she inspected Logan’s clubhouse for the first time. With the golden chain dangling around his neck, Logan was hurling insults at the police, but she managed to put him down with a swift move.
Logan might not have expected her to attack him, so when she knelt on his back to subdue him, Logan forcefully threw her off his back. Unexpectedly, Logan was exceptionally strong, so she was hurt during the incident as she knocked herself against the table while falling over, grazing her elbow in the process.
Similar conflicts happened during the subsequent inspections on Logan’s clubhouse, during which Lola did the same to him, but never did he throw her off him again. While Lola didn’t think much of it back then, she came to realize that despite his hooliganism, he was rather gentlemanly toward women.
Meanwhile, Logan was still on the phone when he turned to ask Lola, “Do you have anything that you’d like to eat?”
Shaking her head, Lola smiled in silence, whereas Logan hung up after giving out a few more instructions. After that, he leaned back on the sofa, visibly exhausted. Lola hesitated for some time before lying down on his lap, while Logan reached out to caress her hair. He did it so lovingly as he enjoyed the feeling of caressing her, as it felt like he was caressing a kitten.
Lola pulled his hand closer to play with his fingers. “Logan, does your family have any prerequisites regarding who you take as your girlfriend?”
Her question caught him off guard, whereas she was still burying her face in his waist, so Logan couldn’t actually see her expression. All he could do was hold her hand while consoling her. “Have you been worried about this all this while? My family doesn’t care about status and wealth. When I went home, my father even told me to marry you as soon as possible, as he was afraid you might run away. It proves that they really like you.”
After taking a deep breath, Logan went on to say, “I understand that money is a concern for many, but to be frank, my family is rich enough that we don’t need another family’s support, so we put emphasis on our spouse’s character.” Logan sounded extremely gentle. “You have nothing to fear, as nobody in my family will disapprove of you.”
Lola was feeling less anxious after hearing what he told her, but feelings of trepidation remained. “I am worried that I won’t have a say in matters in your family, as financial status is a deciding factor in familial status.”

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...
