Feeling joyful that her parents wanted to visit her place, Lola asked, “Why don’t we go back to fetch you now?”
Startled at that reply, Fiona said, “There’s no need for that. I haven’t cleaned up the house yet, so I can’t go over today. When you’re free, just give us a call. We’ll hail a taxi. You don’t have to come over to fetch us.”
After giving it a thought, Lola said, “Alright. You can decide when you’ll come to visit us. Just call me in advance.”
In a hushed voice, Fiona inquired, “Lola, ask Logan how much is in the bank card.” Then, she hurriedly explained, “Those neighbors had come into the house and asked all kinds of questions. One of them even took over my card and helped me call the careline, but I didn’t manage to hear what the customer service representative said. After the inquiry, they left the house without telling me the amount of money. I’m a little concerned, so I’d like you to ask him about this. No matter how much is in the card, we won’t say anything. We just want to know the exact figure.”
Eyeing her husband, Lola grunted and told her mother, “I’ll ask him about it.” Then, she hung up the call.
Before she could speak, Logan asked with a smile, “Does your mom want to know the amount of money in the card?”
After keeping her phone, Lola replied in a helpless manner, “After we left, those neighbors went into my parents’ home and even helped them check the value in the bank card, but they didn’t tell my mom about it and left the house. My mom is concerned, so she told me to ask you about it.”
Logan chuckled. “Why do your neighbors always have to meddle in other people’s business?”
Leaning against the seat, Lola stretched her arms. “I think they just wanted to make fun of us if the card only contained a small amount of money. Then, I’d be the talk of the town again.”
Logan took her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “Don’t worry. I won’t give them the chance.”
Leaning close to him, Lola inquired, “So, how much is it? I still have to tell my mom about it.”

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...
