The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1359

Logan’s movements were exceedingly swift. Springing out of bed, he dashed over to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, a whirlwind of activity. Meanwhile, Lola had already packed up, so she merely changed and sat in the sitting area to wait for him. Logan then packed his luggage as well, but there wasn’t much luggage since most were odds and ends they bought during their trips out.

When everything was done, the two of them went downstairs and ate a simple breakfast at the hotel restaurant. Then, they took a taxi to the airport. They got the time just right, for they boarded the plane shortly after arriving at the airport.

Logan was so excited that despite his initial plan of surprising his family after going back, he gave Old Mr. Jefferson a call while the plane hadn’t yet taken off. When Old Mr. Jefferson answered the call, his voice was no different than usual; he merely knew that they were coming back today, but not Lola’s possible pregnancy. Perhaps Lynett and Lorraine didn’t tell him anything out of worry for his health. Bouncing off the walls, Logan declared, “Dad, I’ll tell you something, but you’ve got to stay strong, okay?”

All at once, a bolt of fear lanced through Old Mr. Jefferson. “Have you done something reprehensible again, you damn kid? Let me tell you, I’m not going to help you if you’ve created a huge mess. You’ve got to take responsibility by yourself!”

Logan hooted in laughter over the phone. Then, he asserted, “It’s not something reprehensible. It’s something good.”

However, Old Mr. Jefferson obviously didn’t believe him. “Have you ever done anything good? You’ve never done anything decent since young.”

This remark truly saddened Logan.

Beside him, Lola could hear everything Logan said. A tad embarrassed, she raised her hand and patted him on the arm, shaking her head to signal him not to publicize her pregnancy. After all, it’s not certain yet since a pregnancy test may be wrong.

After a while, Logan again insisted through the phone, “It’s truly a good thing. Say, why can’t you just trust your son once?”

“Cut the crap!” Old Mr. Jefferson blurted. “I know your despicable character all too well. So, what trouble did you wreak this time?”
