The neighbors nodded after hearing that. It wasn’t that uncommon in rural villages for people to find another partner right after a break up, especially when both parties met each other through blind dates. Women of Lola’s age might be a little desperate to get married, so they would go through multiple candidates in quick succession until they found a match, whom they would quickly settle down with. It wasn’t something unprecedented in their village.
Upon examining Logan, they had an inkling that he was rich, which was somewhat apparent from the fact that he drove a car. Not really liking the neighbors, Logan kept a straight face while allowing them to check him out. These gossipy folk never read the atmosphere, so after chattering for a while longer with Langdon, they went on to chat with Logan instead of leaving the house.
Though they looked as if they wanted to know more about Lola’s possible marriage, they were in fact trying to gauge his background. They had never seen much of the world, so they were curious as to who Logan was upon noticing that he was rich.
Besides, they liked to compare themselves with each other, so they would like to know what kind of man Lola managed to find. That was especially the case when they were neighbors. Although they wouldn’t do that in front of Lola, they would compare their own circumstances to hers while behind her back.
On the other hand, it wasn’t Logan’s intention to show off, but he didn’t see the point in hiding his background as well. After all, he couldn’t possibly reject the inheritance that he rightfully owned. Therefore, he gave the neighbors honest replies when they asked him a plethora of questions that ranged from his job, his possessions, as well as if he would be able to find Lola a job.
Upon knowing that Logan owned a clubhouse and that his family owned a few houses in the city, as well as the fact that he was able to easily find Lola a job, they smacked their lips in dismay. As if feeling unsatisfied, they asked what his family’s professions were. Annoyed by their gossipy attitude, Logan shot back, “All my sisters own their own company, so they don’t have to work.”

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...
