Next One Is a Babe

Fiona turned to see the photos on the back seats and said, “These photos must be expensive.”

Lola just put on a smile, for she had no idea how much money was needed to take these photos. During the photoshoots, she was served by a few assistants, and the photographer kept praising how beautiful she was. Perhaps the money spent was worth it after all.

After they returned home with the photos, Fiona and Langdon started discussing where the photos should be placed. Lola didn’t mind where the photos should go, so she just let her parents make the decision for her.

Since they returned home, the smiles on Langdon and Fiona’s faces never faded. When they had come up with a plan, Lola called some people to come over and hang the photos onto the walls.

Seated on the couch, Langdon commented with a smile, “In our village, we normally don’t ask people to come over and hang the photos onto the walls for us. We’ll just do it ourselves.”

Lola grinned. “The photos are huge, so it’s not safe for you to do it on your own.”

After putting down some glasses of juice on the table, Fiona remarked, “Don’t you know how clumsy you are? You might damage the photos. You can fix some things, but you’re inept at drilling holes in the walls.”

Langdon pressed his lips and retorted, “Even if I damage the walls, Logan will not say anything.” Then, he eyed his daughter. “Don’t you agree with me?”

“Yes, you’re right.” Lola immediately went along with her father.

These professionals managed to hang all the photos onto the walls and place the smaller ones around the house according to Fiona and Langdon’s plan in just thirty minutes. Then, Lola passed them the money and thanked them. After they left the house, she closed the door and turned around, only to see that her parents were staring at her. Startled, she asked, “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?”

Fiona beckoned to her and sat her down on the couch before asking in a hushed voice, “Are you financially independent from Logan now?”

Lola shook her head. “No. He’s given me a card.” She had no idea how much money was in the card, but it was linked to her phone, so she could just make all the payments using her device.

Fiona nodded. “I’ve been wondering how you can spend so much money when your income is meager.”

Lola hadn’t gotten her year-end bonus, and she had no idea how much money she would receive. However, during this period of time, she was able to spend a lot of money shopping around and eating fancy food with her parents.

Knowing what their concern was, Lola said, “Don’t worry. He’s really good to me, and he’s very honest with me. He doesn’t think I’m inferior to him because I’m poorer. We’re equal in our relationship. To be precise, I have more say in most of the decisions because he’d listen to me.”

Langdon nodded. “I see. As your parents, naturally, we’re worried about your well-being. Alright. We won’t ask about this again because it’s your life.”
