Next One Is a Babe Chapter 1176

When they’d left, Logan raked a hand through his hair. “How sweet! They left just after a few minutes.”

Lola cast him a sidelong glance. Does he really not know why Sophia left? It’s because he’s too corny,

so she couldn’t stand it! Returning to her seat, she sat down and stared at him. “Do you not have

anything to do the entire day? You’ve spent almost the whole day here.”

Logan pondered for a moment before answering, “I do. My business is to keep you company here.”

This cheesy pick-up line is really revolting! Looking at him, Lola pointed at the chair by the door. “Go

and sit over there. Stop jabbering in my ear.”

Logan glanced over at the chair as well. I used to sit in that chair and play mobile games while waiting

for her! Retracting his gaze, he lifted his eyes to her. “Are you sure you don’t need me to keep you

company here?”

“Scram!”

“Okay.” Logan was surprisingly docile, turning away and leaving without a single word of objection.

Out of his line of sight, the corners of Lola’s mouth lifted. Truly, my shyness doesn’t even last for five

minutes with him. I was a tad shy this morning when he came to seek me out, but all those feelings

vanished into thin air in no time when he later started blathering. This man is really infuriating, so much

so that I’ve got an urge to beat him up!

After going out the door, Logan leaned back against the chair with his legs crossed, looking very much

like a fat cat. Lola stared at him for a good while before retracting her gaze. Why am I getting ever

closer to this scoundrel?

In the afternoon, she had nothing much to do, so after she was done going through the documents, she

reclined in her chair and took a breather.

Logan was again playing mobile games, perhaps having unmuted the device since he was calling out

to someone else on the other end. When she heard him, Lola gazed at his profile. As she continued

staring, she couldn’t help giggling. This man is just like a kid!

After sitting there for a while, her cell phone rang. She swiftly snagged it up for a look, only to see that it

was a call from her hometown, so she took the call right away. “What is it, Dad?”

“It’s nothing major. I just wanted to ask when you’d be free to make a trip home.” Mr. Hunt’s voice was

robust.

Surprise suffused Lola. “I’ve just gone back a while ago. What’s wrong? Did something happen at

home?”

Mr. Hunt sighed. “It’s nothing serious. It’s just that your grandmother’s death anniversary is

approaching, so I was thinking that you can visit her grave with me and ask for her blessings upon your

love life if you’ve got the time for a trip home.”

Lifting a hand, Lola covered her face. What is Dad talking about? Grandma is old-school, so what kind

of help can she render? Then, she chuckled. “I’ll make some arrangements to take a trip back when

I’ve got some time off.” She indeed wanted to go back and visit her grandmother’s grave for her death

anniversary. In the past, she didn’t have much time off due to the nature of her job, so it’d been many

years since she’d last visited her grandmother’s grave.

Mr. Hunt grunted in assent. “Oh yes, I have another question for you. Has that Shawn Long contacted

you recently?”

Lola didn’t answer directly. Instead, she asked, “Did his family go causing trouble again?”

Smacking his lips, Mr. Hunt replied, “They didn’t exactly cause trouble. They just came over to

persuade us and ask whether there’s any chance of reconciliation. Both the Longs and the matchmaker

came over. It’s quite a huge group every time, so it indeed doesn’t look too good when our neighbors

are witnessing it all.”
