He overestimated his ability to abstain. Lola slept soundly without a care in the world, while he couldn’t even close his eyes. Logan thought the exhaustion would eventually lull him to sleep, but Lola being beside him staved off all sleepiness. A while later, Logan said, “Why don’t I sleep outside, Lola? I can’t sleep with you beside me.”
Logan wondered what was wrong with him. Back when he was dating Jasmine, she’d dropped hints about staying the night together, and he knew her goal was definitely more than that. But all he felt then was frustration, so he pretended to be oblivious to it and rejected Jasmine’s invitation. Now, however, that feeling of lust within him was torturing him, and he didn’t know what to do.
Lola was already drifting to sleep, but she slowly opened her eyes upon hearing him. She could hear the resignation in his voice, so she sat up. Logan still had that towel around him, and there were patches of water on him. Oh dear, he’s hot. Seeing this, Lola licked her lips. “The sofa isn’t that big. Why don’t you sleep on the bed? I’ll take the sofa.”
Logan quickly stopped her. “I can’t let you do that. I’m the man here, so you go back to bed. I’ll take the sofa.” Then, he took his clothes and went out of the room.
When Logan had closed the door, a smile broke out on Lola’s face. He took a cold shower at midnight? That’s some willpower. He held back just like last time. That alone made him better than most men. Lola waited until everything was quiet out there before going back to sleep.

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...
