Beside Logan, Lola covered her face with both hands. “It’s on me. I was wrong, so let’s not mention this anymore,
okay?”
Logan clutched his chest. “You can’t imagine how anguished I was back then. I’d just decorated the gym secretly
the night before, and while I was exhausted, I was still very much gleeful at the thought of giving her a surprise the
next day, but she wanted to break up with me the next day.”
Lola was truly embarrassed, and she also felt that she’d wronged him greatly.
After hearing the story, Sophia nodded. “That was indeed aggravating for you, but any other girl would’ve probably
reacted similarly.” As men and women are different physiologically, it also makes them different psychologically.
When a woman is confronted with such a situation, she won’t ask directly under normal circumstances.
For instance, Lola gave him plenty of chances, asking him where he went the day before. This was of course the
most common reaction for most women. Thus, her next course of action was considered reasonable since she

Logan. He was filled with hope, yet he ended up doused with a bucket of cold water.
Scooting over, Lola hugged Logan’s arm. “Don’t be angry. I was also incredibly anguished at that time.”
Logan turned to look at her. Initially, he wanted to keep his expression somber, but the moment he saw her blinking
and gazing at him with those limpid eyes of hers, he just couldn’t bring himself to be stern. Hence, he instantly lifted
a hand and pinched her face. “In the future, just tell me your thoughts. I’ll be furious if you do this again.”
Turning his head, John glanced at Sophia and shook his head. “I never thought that he’d have this side to him one
day.”
“Right? It’s shocking,” Sophia seconded.
… Logan and Lola then moved back to their house that had been cleaned from top to bottom. Mr. and Mrs. Hunt
came over as well. “I don’t think you two should cook. Lola has just conceived and will be a bit sensitive, so it’s
better that she doesn’t inhale so much fumes. Just come over to our place when you’re hungry.” Lola nodded.
“Okay.” Logan loved having free food and drinks, so he instantly agreed. “Sure! We’ll just go along with anything
you decide.” Thereafter, Mrs. Hunt said, “I’ve emptied your refrigerator. Don’t simply eat whatever you want on the
sly. I just don’t understand why you can’t endure it for a bit.” Lola knew that this remark was directed at her, so she
pursed her lips without saying anything. Beside her, Logan gently rubbed her arm in consolation. All at once, Mrs.
Hunt swiveled and stared at him. “You can’t just indulge her. It’s your child in her stomach, so you’ve got to
consider the baby as well.” Logan nodded. “Yes, yes. You’re right, Mom.” Sometimes, Mrs. Hunt truly didn’t know
what to say about him. He was too well-mannered, agreeing to anything at all, but putting it into practice was
another story.
Then, she whirled around and went to wash some fruits for Lola. As she stood in the kitchen, she remarked loudly,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Your Aunt Violet phoned me a few days ago, saying that she had a dream. She dreamed that you brought your
child to visit her. Well, you didn’t have any pregnancy dreams, so she had one on your behalf.” Lola, who was sitting
on the sofa, was surprised when she heard that. Speaking of pregnancy dreams, she was reminded of something
else. She fixed her gaze on his father. “I had a dream last night. I dreamed of someone standing beside my bed,
looking down at me. Then, she bent down and touched my stomach.” Subsequently, she added, “It was an old
woman.” Beside her, Logan was stunned at first before he shook his head. “No matter the veracity of its
symbolism, it’s probably not my mother.” When his mother passed away, she was still quite young, so she couldn’t
be included in the ranks of old women. After a moment’s contemplation, Mr. Hunt suggested, “In that case, I’ll find
a time and go back to visit your grandmother’s grave. We didn’t visit her grave and inform her when the two of you
got married, so we’ve got to notify her now that you’re with child. Regardless of whether your dream meant
something else, I’ll go back and visit her.” Pursing her lips, Lola hesitated for a moment. “I want to go too. I want to
tell her myself.” Logan didn’t object. “Then, I’ll go with you.”
