Next One Is a Babe

It was expected that John had his own consideration in whatever he did, so Lola could understand him. After a halt, she said, “I still have to thank you. No matter what your motive is, you’ve offered us great help.”

Seeing this, Logan was displeased as she was polite to John, whom she had met only a few times, but she was glacial to him even though he was the one helping solve her problems and giving her leads. How can she do this to me?

Oblivious to Logan, Lola was paying all her attention to John because he was the one who had the answers to her questions, hence she voiced her doubts right away. She suspected that the real mastermind behind the shadow bank hadn’t been found out yet.

If there was no mastermind who made these clever plans, the forces of the shadow bank, which were pretty divided, couldn’t have been able to hide their wrongdoing so perfectly over the years.

The shadow bank wasn’t a well-known one in the country. If John never commenced an investigation into the bank, it wouldn’t have caught the attention of the police.

Unwilling to reveal more, John nodded and said, “I’m sure there’s a mastermind behind this, but the different forces within the bank must have played a role as well. We’ll keep on investigating this matter to get more information.”

With his lips pressed together, Logan darted his gaze between John and Lola. There were some things Lola never told him last night, so apparently, she didn’t trust him fully. Displeased, he thought that she had underestimated him.

However, Lola was oblivious to Logan’s feelings because she never paid any attention to him. Then, she started telling John about the analysis from her discussion with Logan yesterday.

Hearing this, Logan was frustrated and glared at her. “Didn’t we talk about this yesterday? Moreover, we had arrived at the same conclusion. Why are you retelling this to John? Are you implying that you don’t trust my judgment, so you want to ask for John’s opinions?”

Seeing as Logan was speaking what was on her mind, Lola nodded. “Yeah. I don’t trust you. I think Mr. Constance’s analysis will be more comprehensive and reasonable than yours.”

What the heck! I can’t believe that she’s trying to brush me off after all I’ve helped her with. I’ve never seen a woman so shameless before! His chest heaved in exasperation as he glared at her and growled, “Alright! You’re showing your true colors now!”
