Everyone had already left her yard at this time. Hence, she closed her gates and cleaned up her yard a
little before going back in to put away the gifts the Jeffersons had brought over.
There were simply too many things, and many of them were things that she didn’t recognize. Sitting on
the chair and sorting out the gifts one by one, she was stunned that those were all quality items that
she had never seen before, though she had heard about some of them before. There were also things
which she hadn’t even heard of, and in addition to that, Logan had brought over lots of wine.
Fiona opened and closed her mouth a couple of times as she thought, Looks like Langdon’s sunny
days are here.
Logan brought Lola home straight away without following his father back to the main residence. When
they got back, she changed and stretched herself in the living room.
They had spent almost six hours on the road to and fro, and her whole body felt numb. Afterward, she
called her mother to inform her that she had reached home safely.
At first, Fiona sounded happy over the phone and reminded her to take care of herself. Then, she
lowered her voice to a whisper and asked, “Is it okay to tell you something now?”
Lola’s eyes darted toward Logan, who was not far off and muttered, “Yeah.”
Sighing, Fiona told her about what happened after they left, including all the details of the things their
neighbors had said. “Lola, you have to live happily with Logan. Only then can you give them a slap in
the face. You have no idea how mad they made me feel today,” she added.
In fact, Lola could imagine the scene, and she was also kind of mad just from hearing about it, much
more for her mom who was faced with such a situation.
However, that was just the way people from the countryside were. Even though they claimed to be
doing other people good, every idea they came up with was actually meant to create the opposite effect
and ruin others’ plans. Most probably, they thought that she was not good enough for Logan.
If she was dating a nobody, they would probably speak so well of him and urge her to marry him as
soon as possible.
It’s impossible to guess what’s in a person’s heart sometimes, she lamented internally.
“We’re doing fine, so just let those people speak all they want. I don’t care about it,” she said into the
phone.
Fiona sighed again. “I don’t want to care about it either, but it was really unbearable.”
Lola comforted her mother with a chuckle before finally hanging up.
Seated on the couch, Logan turned on the TV and asked, “What are you speaking about? Why are you
being so secretive?”
With her cell phone still in her hands, she paced over and said, “We don’t mean to hide anything from
you, but the neighbors were being all gossipy after we left. My mom was worried that you’ll be unhappy
to hear about it, so she told me briefly about it.”
Logan raised his hand and she snuggled into his embrace without a word.
Fiddling with her earlobe, he asked, “What did they say?”
Since she couldn’t tell him the story word by word, she simply told him, “They probably think that I’m
not worthy enough for you, so they said some unpleasant things.”
“Not worthy enough for me?” He chuckled. “Then that just means they haven’t seen how worried my
family are that you’ll run away.” Seeing that she was silent, he added, “Ignore them. This is our lives
and only we know what the truth is. There’s no such talk as worthiness. Even if there is, it’s me who’s
not good enough for you.”
A grin appeared on her face. “Okay, I got it.”
In the afternoon, they took a nap in the same bed. This time, Logan didn’t dare to try anything anymore
and only held her in his arms.
