The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1361

A while later, the family doctor arrived. He first took Lola’s pulse, but since it wasn’t a foolproof method, he then took a blood sample and said that the result would be out at night. Despite the lack of a definite result, everyone had already taken it for granted that Lola’s stomach housed a tiny life.

Mrs. Hunt’s eyes were red-rimmed. “You gave me a scare, child. I thought you weren’t feeling well.”

Lola hugged her arm. “While I was indeed feeling indisposed out there, I’m fine now.”

After she’d chatted with them for some time downstairs, a wave of weariness enveloped her. A room had already been prepared upstairs, so Logan took her up for her to rest. Since he’d clocked her distress throughout the entire journey, he was determined to have her as comfortable as she could be now that they were home.

As soon as Lola entered the room, she went over to the bed and sprawled out. Perhaps it was because she was feeling happy that she was physiologically feeling fine, so she let out a long sigh of relief. “It feels great to be home! I’m refreshed in the blink of an eye!”

Chuckling, Logan caressed her face. “Is there anything you want to eat?”

Lola pondered for a moment. “I want to eat ice cream!”

Logan’s smile instantly vanished. “Then, it can only remain a craving. That’s too cold, so you shouldn’t be eating it since your stomach isn’t so good now.”

Upon hearing that, Lola snorted and flipped over, giving her back to him. Sitting down beside her, Logan stroked her arm. “Be a good girl and listen to me.”

Still, Lola snorted as she shrugged. Such an adorable gesture had Logan’s heart softening. After deliberating for a moment, he gentled his voice. “What about just eating a bit? You can’t eat too much. Will a few bites do?”

Lola sat up and snagged her cell phone over, but it was as clean as could be without any messages or missed calls. The employees over at the gym all knew that she’d gone on her honeymoon, so they wouldn’t bother her under normal circumstances. Thus, she was resigned to trawl the internet for some gossip, but this wasn’t quite her cup of tea, so she quickly grew bored after glancing through a few headlines. In the end, she put her cell phone down and slipped out of bed, going over to the window. When she’d reached the window, she was greeted by the sight of the empty space in front of the main building as soon as she lowered her head.

It so happened that Logan had just come in from outside and was striding across the empty space with a plastic bag in his hand that probably contained ice cream. After a few steps, he stopped. Mulling it over for a moment, he then slipped off his jacket and draped it over his arm to cover the plastic bag.

All at once, understanding dawned upon Lola. He’s probably afraid that the others will see it. After all, I’m in a delicate condition now, so they might not necessarily agree to let me eat such a thing.

Subsequently, Logan marched into the living room. Meanwhile, Lola went back to bed and waited for him. In no time, he came up, but he didn’t carry everything upstairs, merely a single carton of ice cream. This is enough! Lola hurriedly beckoned to him. “Come here, come here.”

Never had Logan seen her this enthusiastic toward any food, so while he was still a smidge hesitant earlier, he now felt that it wasn’t a big deal after a moment’s contemplation.
