Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 826

Matilda nodded. “Yes. He said that he had accidentally split the curtain in his home yesterday, so he wanted me to choose a new one with him. Initially, I didn’t want to go, but my mom agreed to his request for me, so I’m left with no choice now.”

After that, she gave Logan a glance. “What’s wrong with him? He seems displeased.” At that instant, she noticed the bruise on his face, so she frowned. “Did he accidentally bump into any object or something?”

Sure enough, no one would have imagined that Logan was attacked. Even his father doesn’t dare to lay a hand on him, for Logan will certainly retaliate. Why would anyone have the courage to punch him in the face? Sophia thought.

Logan turned to look at Sophia, who replied, “Oh, after we had breakfast, he crashed into the glass door because he wasn’t paying attention. You can see how hard he hurt himself.”

Having no idea of what had happened earlier, Matilda trusted her words. After examining the bruise, she commented, “Poor thing. The bruise looks serious.”

Feeling uneasy, Logan touched his face and looked away. Since he was in a bad mood, he didn’t suggest playing poker even when they were around.


Sitting beside him, Matilda said, “I’m surprised that you didn’t invite us to play poker today.”

After letting out a sigh, Logan replied, “No. Considering the state I’m in, I’ll be destroyed by the rest of you in the game.”

Matilda laughed. “Even if you’re energetic, you will still be destroyed by the rest of us.” When she didn’t get a response from him, Matilda was surprised.

Logan wasn’t a man who would accept criticisms. Normally, when he was criticized, he would rebuke that person immediately. It was rare for him to simply fall silent after being mocked.

Staring at him, Matilda decided against voicing her doubt, even though she was curious.

Knowing that Logan wasn’t in the mood, Sophia started asking Matilda about the man the latter was going to date.

Looking embarrassed, Matilda replied, “It isn’t a date. We’re just going to meet up and have a chat. Seriously, this is not a date.”

Amused by the look on her face, Sophia said, “Since the both of you are adults, it doesn’t have to be said out clearly. Even if you don’t think it’s a date, the man may think otherwise. What if he thinks that you’ve agreed to go out with him because you’re somewhat fond of him? What will you do?”

Upon heaving a sigh, Matilda said, “Yesterday, I made it clear to him that it was my mom who had arranged the date, and I wasn’t looking for a boyfriend. However, he said that he could understand the situation I was in and insisted that we could start getting in touch as friends first.”
