The Returning EX (Sophia and John) novel Chapter 1189

Shawn looked rather reluctant, but still, he dragged his feet over and said that he wanted to apologize to Lola.

Lola was still standing in the house. Beside her, Logan chuckled. “Go on and see what he has to say.”

Truthfully, Lola didn’t want to talk to Shawn. However, he then called out to her again, so she had no choice but to go out.

Shawn’s expression was a tad complicated when he spotted her. Never had he imagined that the matter would be blown into pieces at her hands. In his opinion, her family was just average, so while she had friends in authority due to her former profession, he wasn’t at all afraid since all those people were bound by the law. He didn’t believe that he’d be on the losing end, nor did he believe that they’d surreptitiously make things difficult for him.

However, never had it crossed his mind that Logan would be the variable in this. He didn’t take him seriously back then, but he’d been put in his place today. Although he didn’t lose his job, he’d been stripped of his position. The higher-ups didn’t give him a specific reason, but they hinted that he’d offended someone he shouldn’t have offended, and they even urged him to settle the problem as soon as possible, else his days would be even worse.

As long as you stop pestering me, we’ll go our separate ways.” After staring at her for a long while, Shawn finally nodded. “Okay, we’ll go our separate ways.” The two of them were very blunt, and the matter was seemingly cast in stone. Lola then whirled around and went back into the house. Meanwhile, Logan was still gazing out with a half-smile on his face. Mr. and Mrs. Long, on the other hand, were embarrassed at once. They were still holding gifts in their hands, wavering between keeping up the inane talk and turning around to leave. Noticing Mrs. Long’s unease, Mr. Hunt declared, “Take everything back, for we’re not going to accept them. Also, don’t come here anymore.

Just pretend that we’ve never been acquainted.” Mr. Long nodded. “Sure, sure, no problem.” Without putting down the gifts, the Longs turned around and left the courtyard. When they’d reached the gate, Mrs. Long’s mutterings drifted faintly into the air. However, she wasn’t cursing out the Hunts. Rather, she was castigating Mr. Long for his cowardice, claiming that she’d been humiliated. Regardless, they asked for it!
