Mr. Hunt smilingly commented, “Young people lack foresight, so it’s understandable. It’s par for the course.”
Logan didn’t feel that he’d done anything wrong. There were two plates of steamed prawns on the table, so he moved one of them right before Lola. “I was a touch embarrassed to do this earlier, but now that everything is on the table, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about anymore. Here, this is all yours, Lola.”
Lola truly admired his level of shamelessness. They’ve already mocked him that much, yet he can still be so brazen in his speech.
At the side, Mrs. Hunt couldn’t quite stop laughing. “I never knew that Logan’s so hilarious!”
Old Mr. Jefferson harrumphed. “You think he’s hilarious, but I feel like beating him to death!”
Not at all bothered, Logan peeled two prawns for Lola and placed them into her bowl. “You don’t need to bother about them. They’re just jealous.” His voice was exceedingly tender.
Failing to stifle her laughter, Lola guffawed. Jealous? The thing is, what could these people at the dinner table be jealous of?
At this time, the usually taciturn Lysa giggled as well. “Logan’s mental fortitude is particularly strong. He has a set of personal standards, and he doesn’t care whatever people may say. I think such a spirit is quite valuable.” As this remark fell, one couldn’t tell for certain whether it was a compliment or scorn.
Logan nodded, looking all proud to have received a compliment. “Therefore, all of you have to learn from me. Got it? You’ve got to strengthen yourself mentally every day. Look at me. No one can hurt me.” He was actually right, for he was both mentally and physically strong, so it was indeed true that no one could hurt him.
After the bout of laughter, everyone started eating. It was a joyous occasion today, so all the men at the table indulged.
The kitchens prepared freshly-made grape juice for Lola, claiming that it had an antiemetic effect. The Jeffersons truly care a lot for me! In a good mood, her appetite was likewise great, and she ate more than usual.

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...
