Sophia looked down at her phone to browse through the pictures she had just taken before she decided to knock it
off when she was satisfied with the results. Then, everyone else sat around the table just as their delightful
conversations started to lighten up the atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Sophia ordered two bottles of fruit juice since she should keep off alcohol. After that, she told John to
take a few pictures and post them onto his social media. Knowing what Sophia meant by that, he obediently went
ahead and did as he was told.
During dinner, Sophia didn’t say anything much, but Logan was beginning to get carried away as he began to run
his mouth off after getting a little tipsy in spite of his initial quietness. After all, he couldn’t forget about the
humiliation he suffered from being beaten by a woman, so he went on and on about that non-stop.
Nevertheless, John appeared more interested this time, asking Logan how Lola ended up being hospitalized. In
response, Logan squinted and pondered on it. “I heard she ran into an illegal racer who had just snatched
someone’s bag away.
She interfered and retrieved the bag, but the thief came back to retaliate with more men. In the end, she found
those people out of her league and ended up suffering a fractured arm.” Then, he added, “Even so, she managed
to take the thief to the police station anyway.”

her if he doesn’t like Lola so much? What about the previous insults that he made toward her?
In the meantime, Matilda responded with an affirmative grunt and said, “How honorable she is! I like her!”
Logan pouted and said, “So what? She’s a barbarian who is impossible to be reasoned with. Furthermore, I’m sure
you’re not going to like her hideous and menacing look. If you see her in person, you’ll know what I’m saying.”
Matilda then gazed at Logan. “Wouldn’t you feel safe to have someone like her by your side? The society needs
more of those like her with an unshakable moral compass deep inside her.”
Logan snorted. “Hmph! I beg to differ! She is nothing but a feisty woman! Otherwise, I would have just killed her.”
Says the man who got punched in the face anyway! How ‘threatening’ he is! Sophia thought to herself.
Then, John continued to ask, “What went wrong between you and her? She put up with you previously when things
turned ugly for you both, so what made this time an exception? Was it because you said something that pissed her
off?”
Logan glared at John and answered, “When does she ever like anything that comes out of my mouth? But I don’t
know what exactly went wrong and pissed her off, to be honest.”
This guy is really talking way too much. Sophia then chimed in with a question, even though she was engrossed in
enjoying the delicious food. “I bet you must have said something that offended her. What did you tell her before she
gave you a punch in the face?”
Upon hearing Sophia, Logan started to recall what happened in a serious manner. Before she hit me, we mentioned
something about my club. Then, Lola told me to watch out, saying that she was aware of the illegal activities going
on right here before she warned me to stay away from drugs.
Well, she surely looks like the kind who likes to preach to me because she wouldn’t stop lecturing me about how
those things could ruin thousands of lives. Besides the drug addicts, many police officers sacrifice their lives for the
sake of curbing drug trafficking, and all this could have been avoided if it weren’t for shameless people like me.
Then, Logan tried to recall what happened next. What did I say after that? Oh yeah! I told her that we didn’t force
them to go down this path. That’s right! Those few words were what pissed her off so much that she punched me in
the face, even though her other arm was in a cast. Jeez! I must say that her fist really did pack a punch!
On the other hand, William was still in the office when Old Mrs. Constance called him to ask why he still hadn’t come
home.
