Old Mr. Jefferson scoffed. “I know that. You two wish to live in a world of your own, and don’t want an old man like me around. Don’t worry. I’m prepared for that.”
Hearing that, Lola felt a little sorry for him, but Logan, on the other hand, didn’t waver for a bit.
In regards to Lola’s job, Old Mr. Jefferson expressed his concern, as he was afraid that she might find it difficult to juggle between work and wedding preparations.
Hence, he was suggesting whether it was possible for her to resign for the time being. Of course, it wasn’t necessary for her to be a housewife. Once this busy period was over, she could always get a new job elsewhere.
Besides, the four Young Ladies of the Jefferson Family each had their own company, so they could easily get a job for her.
With a smile, Lola replied, “It’s fine. I’m one of the owners of the gym, so it’s not required for me to clock in and out on time.”
Nodding his head, Old Mr. Jefferson assured, “If you face any difficulties, don’t hesitate to let us know. We’re a family now, so feel free to come to us anytime.”
Clearly, everyone in the Jefferson Family had accepted her as a part of the family.
Sitting down with his legs crossed, Logan suddenly thought of something. “Did you seek advice from any fortune teller? I’d like to know which date is advisable for marriage registration—preferably a date that will help bless the couple’s marriage life.”
Pulling a long face, Old Mr. Jefferson asked, “Since when you’re superstitious?”
Shaking her head, Lola was left speechless, merely giving a smile.
With a pout, Logan darted a glance at Lola. “Do you have a preferred date?”
Off the top of her head, she couldn’t think of a special date. “I’m fine with anything. It’s up to you.”
With that, Logan concluded, “Tomorrow, then! Let’s get registered tomorrow.”
Dumbfounded, Lola knew all along that Logan was desperate, but not to this extent.
