The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 256

Not understanding Logan’s family business at all, Sophia directly asked, “What is the nature of your family business? How are you going to do business with the Baileys?”

The Jeffersons were involved in multiple industries. Logan’s four sisters and his brothers-in-law helped manage the business empire.

Not interested in running a business, Logan couldn’t give a clear answer when he was asked about the nature of his family business.

After giving it a thought, he replied, “Well, we’re involved in all kinds of businesses. There’s always a way to cooperate when there’s a will.”

Sophia leaned against the couch. “Then why did you call me?”

Upon pondering over the matter, he answered, “My dad wants me to attend the dinner. In fact, I don’t really want to go. What’s the point of going there? They won’t play chess with me. It’s so boring that we’ll just have a meal and leave. However, my dad said that they’ve talked about me, so he wants me to show up at the dinner to show some respect to them. Well, he has a point.”

After that, he smiled and continued, “But I don’t want to go there alone… There are surely no beautiful ladies at dinner. How will I have the appetite to eat anything?”

At this point, Sophia already figured out what he was trying to say. “Do you want me to go with you?”

“Oh, you’re so clever. See, you know me so well. That’s exactly what I’m trying to say.” Logan giggled and said, “At least with you there, I can look at you and chat with you. Don’t you think so?”

Sophia snorted, “Who am I to attend the dinner? They will be baffled if they see me there because they want to have a meal with you, not me. Don’t you think I’m going to embarrass myself?”

“You won’t embarrass yourself,” Logan replied in an upset tone. “I’m going there with you. If they don’t welcome you, I’ll directly reprimand them. I’m sure they know my temper well. Don’t worry. With me around, they’ll have to respect you.”

Sophia replied hesitantly, “The Baileys are treating you to a meal. It’s not nice that I go with you.”
