The Hunts came up to them, and Fiona clicked her tongue when she saw the two of them in the yard. “They just love to show their affection, don’t they?”
Langdon gave her a glance. “It’s all good, honey. I thought Lola would never find a boyfriend with that attitude of hers.” Fiona nodded in agreement, and she left.
Once Lola was done washing herself up, she went back to help her mother with the meal prep, while Logan helped. However, it was painfully obvious that he was a klutz in cooking. Still, it was no surprise; even rich young ladies might not know how to cook, let alone the young masters.
Fiona gave him a chance, but she thought it was getting cramped in the kitchen after a while, so she chased the couple out. In response, Lola chuckled and held Logan’s arm as she dragged him out. “That’s enough, Logan. You’re more trouble than help in the kitchen anyway.”
Logan felt embarrassed, and he whispered, “You know I’m not good at cooking, but I can’t just stand there while you guys work. It’s rude.”
Everyone in the village wants a piece of him. Logan smiled and shook his head. Of course, he disliked being barraged by questions. If it were the old him, they would have gotten it, but he couldn’t embarrass the Hunts, so he went with it. A different group of neighbors came visiting this time, and they were rowdy. “We heard Lola came back with her boyfriend to discuss their marriage, so we want to see who he is.” They didn’t beat about the bush, and that was commendable, but Lola was still frustrated about it. I’ll bet the rumors are going to change again in a few seconds. Langdon felt embarrassed too, and he looked at Logan first before answering as calmly as he could, “The marriage isn’t happening that soon. We’ll have to meet his parents and go through the details.”
