When Lola woke up, she heard noises from the living room and slowly got out of bed. While stretching, she went out of the room and saw that Logan had already washed up and was placing something on the couch.
Knitting her brows slightly, she asked, “What’s that? Where did you get it?”
“Oh, these are all bottled wine from the clubhouse that I’m bringing over to your family this time,” Logan replied.
It was then that she recalled her dad really liking the two bottles of wine he brought over the last time. Looks like he’s on the right path and will be using wine to buy his way through, she thought with a nod and turned to enter the bathroom before making a simple breakfast.
After breakfast, they changed and drove to the Jefferson Residence, where Lorraine was already waiting there and Old Mr. Jefferson was dressed appropriately, both looking very formal.
The butler came and informed them that the gifts for the visit were already loaded into the trunk of the car, so they were ready to go.
Old Mr. Jefferson nodded and looked at Lola. “Let’s go now.”
For some unknown reason, she blushed and answered, “Okay.”
Lorraine and Old Mr. Jefferson rode in one car while Logan drove with Lola in his own car. Then, they began their journey to visit the Hunts with Logan’s car driving ahead.
Along the way, Logan felt inexplicably excited, and after chatting for a while with Lola, he quieted down and hummed a little tune by himself. Leaning against the car window, Lola turned and looked at him.
He actually didn’t wear his big gold chain for such a formal occasion, she thought. What a feat!
