Broker Hayes’ face flushed bright red at Logan’s remonstration. It was precisely because she’d helped Shawn to find a match that she’d been criticized behind her back for a long time. His flaws that’d been brought to light spread like wildfire, and the fact that Lola later married a wealthy man such as Logan made it even more obvious that the match she brokered back then was problematic. For that reason, when she now brokered an introduction and played matchmaker, the people out there didn’t seem to believe her anymore.
Anyhow, she wanted to make money besides making an enviable match that would repair her reputation. As far as an enviable match went, it naturally had to be one with a rich man. She wasn’t acquainted with any one of that sort, nor did she have any connections that’d help her to worm her way into their midst. After repeatedly turning it over in her mind, she came to the conclusion that her only resource lay here with Lola. However, it was clear as day that Logan didn’t want to give her an opening, merely mocking her to her face.
Not daring to antagonize him, she flashed him an awkward smile before opening her mouth to defend herself. However, before she could say anything, Mr. Hunt’s voice drifted out of the house. “What are you doing out there, Logan? Come in and rest for a while. Aren’t you tired after driving all the way here?”
Broker Hayes froze, understanding the meaning behind his words. While he was telling Logan to get into the house, it was also a blatant dismissal toward her.
Logan grunted in acknowledgment. “I’ll come in after getting rid of our guest.” His words were painfully straightforward.
Knowing that she wasn’t welcomed, Broker Hayes was naturally aware that she definitely wouldn’t be treated kindly even if she were to get into the house, so she tried her best to maintain a smile on her face. “You all rest, then. I’ll be leaving first since I’ve still got some business to attend to.”
The moment her words reached his ears, Logan spun on his heels and went back into the house. Pursing her lips, Broker Hayes turned around and walked out. As soon as she twisted her body, her expression darkened. He looks down on me just because he has a pretty penny. Pah!
When she’d left, the neighbors then came over. Since it was the neighbors, Logan didn’t go out. Entering the bedroom, he lay down on the bed and muttered, “These people are simply annoying!”

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...
