When the Longs had left, Mr. Hunt ordered Mrs. Hunt to lock the gate. He felt that the resentment within him had
dissipated, so he was grinning from ear to ear when he whirled around and returned to the house.
Logan also wore a smile on his face. “What were these people thinking? If they’d behaved decently from the very
beginning, there wouldn’t have been such a huge fuss.”
Coming over, Mr. Hunt lifted a hand and patted him on the back. “You’ve got some tricks up your sleeve, boy! I like
someone like you! If we can’t stand someone, we’ve got to put them in their place. We can’t just allow them to step
all over us!”
Exasperated, Lola went out to the courtyard to help her mother with the cleaning. Dad is also the type of person

are bad, but life will be very tiring if one is so serious.
That night, Logan again drank with Mr. Hunt. This time, Mr. Hunt truly regarded him as family, telling him everything
about the family at the dinner table. He told him about all the changes that’d transpired from Lola’s childhood until
now, not concealing anything at all. Even trivial things such as Lola being discriminated against when she first
started working, the disastrous missions she went on, and the many times she called home to grouse about her job
weren’t exempted. In short, he blurted every single detail he remembered.
Lola truly wasn’t in the mood to hear all this. In fact, she wasn’t interested in hearing anything from anyone who
was three sheets to the wind. Thus, she quickly went back to her room to rest after eating. Mr.
Hunt’s voice was rather booming, so she could still hear him loud and clear despite lying on her bed in her room.
She couldn’t quite put a finger on her feelings at this moment, but she seemed to be at peace. At this time, her cell
phone that was placed at the side vibrated again. Snagging it for a look, she saw that it was that hounding b*stard,
Shawn, again. This time, however, he didn’t say anything about their relationship. Instead, he said that Logan
probably had a powerful background, so he had to be a master manipulator and must’ve fooled around often with
girls. Thus, he wasn’t someone whom a village girl like her could hold onto. Then, Shawn warned her that she might
lose both the money and the person if she were to get together with Logan, urging her to know the score. Anger
lanced through Lola at this. What does he mean by advising me to know the score? Who does he think he is? Sitting
up at once, she rapidly typed out a message to Shawn. Not at all holding back her punches, she told him not to
bother her anymore, hoping that he’d remember what he said this afternoon. Also, she made it clear that whatever
happened in her life henceforth had nothing to do with him, demanding that he kept his nose out of her affairs.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSubsequently, Shawn replied with a brief sentence—I was merely saying that for your own good. Disgust swamped
her upon seeing this remark. Finally understanding that it was useless to argue with someone like him, she used the
simplest method to resolve this matter—blacklisting. After blacklisting him, she threw her cell phone to the side.
Perking up her ears, she heard the sounds of glasses clinking. Sure enough, they’re still drinking! I don’t know about
Logan’s alcohol tolerance, but Dad can drink someone under the table. So, if he insists on saving face and
continues drinking with Dad, he’ll probably end up in a worse state than the previous time. Back then, Dad held
back since he merely regarded him as a normal friend of mine, but after his series of actions today, Dad has
obviously adopted him into the family. .
