Logan had been swamped with work recently. Sometimes, it would take him the entire day to supervise the wedding preparations, so he wouldn’t have time to have lunch with Lola. Therefore, he bought a new car for her so that she could drive to work when he wasn’t free.
Knowing that her husband was busy with the wedding preparations, Lola never told him that her parents would be visiting them on this day, and she drove to her hometown on her own.
Naturally, her new car attracted the attention of her neighbors. Upon seeing the vehicle, they appeared to be jealous. One of them crossed her arms and said mockingly, “Oh wow, you’ve bought a new car. How much is it? Are you on a loan? Your husband is rich, so I’m sure he could afford to buy it off in cash, right? Well, nobody takes out a loan to buy a car nowadays. Otherwise, anyone would be able to afford this kind of car. Don’t you think so?”
As though Lola wasn’t aware of the mockery in the person’s voice, she nodded. “Indeed, it’s paid off in cash. Why would I apply for a loan to buy a car when I have the money?”
The person was rendered speechless. Unwilling to give up, she went on to say, “How much is it? This car isn’t expensive anyway. It can be bought for sixty thousand at most.”
After putting on her bag, Lola walked toward her home as she replied, “Sixty thousand? I didn’t know the value of my bag alone was enough to buy this car.”
The person was lost for words.
Without even looking at her, Lola stepped into her home. These people cannot be treated with politeness, or else they’d keep bothering us. If they’re jealous that I’m wealthy, then I have to show them that I can afford to buy anything I want.
Fiona and Langdon had cleaned up the house, and they were ready to go.
After looking around, Lola said with a smile, “Since you’re ready, we should get going.”
Fiona and Langdon had changed into new clothes, looking energetic. Before they left the house, Fiona made sure to lock all the windows and doors.
When they came out of their home, many people were still waiting outside the yard. Some of them appeared to be jealous, while some seemed ready to mock them. Nevertheless, there were still people who were sincerely happy for them.

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...
