Cindy reached out and clasped Ian's hand tightly. "That's why I said that the two of us are really alike sometimes."
Ian chuckled in response. "You're right. Some of our experiences are indeed alike."
Just like that, the two of them kept on chatting in bed until they received a call from Logan.
As soon as Ian answered the call, he immediately heard a cry on the other end before the two of them even had the chance to speak.
Other than cries, he also heard the sound of someone cursing.
Just from the voice, Ian could recognise the person as Leah. Since she was crying her heart out, all her curses came out in pieces.
Then, Ian got up and uttered, "Logan."
On the other end, Logan gave a reply, sounding very calm. "I'm almost done with my part. Do you want to see the photos?"
Ian wasn't interested but from Leah's cries on the other side, he could tell that she was in a miserable state.
He assumed that the photos Logan sent over wouldn't be pleasant to look at, so the former decided not to take a look at it, especially since Cindy was next to him.
After refusing to look at the photos, Ian asked again, "How did you deal with her?"
Logan chuckled. "When dealing with a woman like her, all you need to do is to make her remember not to come to you. Otherwise, she'll keep on coming. That's why I left a mark on her body so that she can remember what happened today whenever she looks in the mirror. From now on, she'll have to keep her neck covered."
He didn't go into any specific details, probably because he didn't want to say much over the phone.
"Try not to make a fuss out of it. If your wife finds out about this, she won't let you go easily."
The moment Lola was mentioned, Logan could only breathe a sigh.
Even though she had retired, she was still filled with a sense of justice. Sometimes, even Logan was scared of her.
He was used to fooling around and not following the rules, so whenever he was caught by her, she would always teach him a lesson.
"You're right. I can't let her know what I did today. Otherwise, she'll probably kick me out of the bedroom again," Logan said in resignation.
Recently, Lola tended to have massive mood swings, so he would be easily kicked out if he wasn't careful.
Since Logan didn't dare to offend her, he had no choice but to keep quiet, though he was quite aggrieved at times.
Meanwhile, Leah found out that Logan was talking to Ian on the phone, so she shouted his name from afar.
She didn't say anything else, other than calling out his name.
However, Ian pretended to hear nothing and allowed Logan to finish the business quickly so that the latter could return to his wife.
Not only did he drink a lot today, he also had to deal with Leah. Given that Lola is pregnant at home, he must have neglected her more or less.
On the other end, Logan gave a simple reply and said, "Alright. I'm done with my business here anyway. I should be going home by now. That hag is probably waiting to punish me at home."
After teaching someone else a lesson, it was now time for Logan to be punished at home.
What can I say? Sometimes, you must give in order to take.
Ian didn't talk too much with Logan and he ended the call afterward.
However, Ian still remembered what Sean had mentioned, so he typed a message and sent it to him.
He didn't know the specific details on how Logan dealt with Leah, so he could only tell Sean that the situation with her was already settled and she would be sent to the hospital immediately.
Also, he mentioned that he didn't know about the specifics or whether Leah would come for Sean afterward, so he reminded the other man to be careful.
After that, Sean sent a text back saying that he understood.
Thereafter, Ian put his phone down.
Cindy turned around and looked at him. "Is it settled?" she asked, to which he raised his brows and answered, "Logan said that it is settled, but I didn't know how far he went this time."
However, she couldn't care less about that, as she only wanted to know that Logan had handled the situation with Leah. Cindy didn't care about the details.
To be honest, Leah was bound to get herself in trouble based on her personality.

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...
