The two of them visited a canyon nearby and spent the better half of the day there. On the way back, Lola dozed off in the car, so Logan gathered her into his arms and kissed her gently on the forehead.
The road was rather bumpy out of the canyon, so Lola couldn’t quite sleep well, hugging Logan tightly around the waist instead. Lowering his voice, Logan suggested, “I noticed that you’re worn out after going out for such a long time today, so how about only going out in the afternoon tomorrow?”
Lola was indeed tired. Perhaps I’ve been living the pampered life for too long that it’s truly exhausting after running around and living it up today. My legs are sore. Thus, she murmured an acquiescence. “Okay. We’ve never been idle these few days, so it’s indeed time to take a breather.”
Logan pulled her tighter into his embrace. While the driver was distracted, he dipped his head and captured her lips. Lola didn’t dare react much, so she merely pinched him on the waist. However, Logan wasn’t at all intimidated, only releasing her after he’d had his fill. Feeling a tad embarrassed, Lola hurriedly buried her head into his chest.
After a while, Logan asked, “Did you notice Ian’s assistant?”
Startled, Lola mulled it over, but she didn’t have much of an impression toward Ian’s assistant. The previous time they went out with him, she merely caught a glimpse of his assistant in the hotel corridor from afar, so she didn’t even get a good look at her countenance. Slightly surprised, she questioned, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem with his assistant?”
Logan smacked his lips. “I think his assistant seems to like him.”
At this, Lola laughed. “Do you still remember the fact that he is Ian Morgan? He’s a celebrity. His assistant will definitely adore him, and they both work together, so it’s probably an innocent liking.”
Pursing his lips, Logan mused, “Say, when they’ve interacted for a long time, will some not-so-innocent liking come into play?”
