Logan instantly kept his mouth shut, as the pain was so overwhelming that he could no longer act tough. Then, he let out a sigh and said, “I’ll give you a call when I’m done.” Before Sophia could respond, Logan immediately hung up the call. After that, he turned his attention to Lola and stopped struggling. “You don’t want to force me to get physical, so let go of me right now!”
Refusing to stoop to his level, Lola shoved him aside and sent him staggering a few steps backward. Upon keeping his footing, Logan adjusted his attire and gazed at the woman in disgust. “Look at yourself. Are you really sure that you’re a woman? I bet no man will ever set his eyes on you.”
Nonetheless, Logan quickly swallowed his words when he met Lola’s intimidating gaze since he wasn’t looking for a fight with her anyway. “There is a proposition that I’d like to make. I know you’ve been investigating a case that has something to do with illegal gambling, prostitution, and drug dealing. Considering how much you hate them, I have a lead for you that might help.”
Although she was no longer a law enforcer, Lola was still rather sensitive toward crime-related issues. She then stared at Logan and questioned him, “What’s wrong? You want to turn yourself in?”
Logan sniggered and replied, “Why would I do that? I’m a legitimate business owner.” Soon, he got himself a chair and sat down, crossing his legs. “I know a place where the people there are using their money-lending service as a facade to disguise their drug-dealing business. Besides, I have some evidence that can prove their financial hanky-panky. So, what do you say we work together?”
Nevertheless, Lola was unwilling to meet Logan’s gaze as she looked away from him. At the same time, she also felt a slight pain in her injured shoulder from overly exhausting it when she manhandled Logan a few moments ago.
Massaging her own shoulder, she swung her arm around and said, “Why would I accept your proposition when reporting about criminal activity is your civilian duty in the first place? Don’t tell me you have no idea about that at all.”

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...
