Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1359


Logan’s movements were exceedingly swift. Springing out of bed, he dashed over to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, a whirlwind of activity. Meanwhile, Lola had already packed up, so she merely changed and sat in the sitting area to wait for him. Logan then packed his luggage as well, but there wasn’t much luggage since most were odds and ends they bought during their trips out.

When everything was done, the two of them went downstairs and ate a simple breakfast at the hotel restaurant. Then, they took a taxi to the airport. They got the time just right, for they boarded the plane shortly after arriving at the airport.

Logan was so excited that despite his initial plan of surprising his family after going back, he gave Old Mr. Jefferson a call while the plane hadn’t yet taken off. When Old Mr. Jefferson answered the call, his voice was no different than usual; he merely knew that they were coming back today, but not Lola’s possible pregnancy. Perhaps Lynett and Lorraine didn’t tell him anything out of worry for his health. Bouncing off the walls, Logan declared, “Dad, I’ll tell you something, but you’ve got to stay strong, okay?”

All at once, a bolt of fear lanced through Old Mr. Jefferson. “Have you done something reprehensible again, you damn kid? Let me tell you, I’m not going to help you if you’ve created a huge mess. You’ve got to take responsibility by yourself!”

Logan hooted in laughter over the phone. Then, he asserted, “It’s not something reprehensible. It’s something good.”

However, Old Mr. Jefferson obviously didn’t believe him. “Have you ever done anything good? You’ve never done anything decent since young.”


This remark truly saddened Logan.

Beside him, Lola could hear everything Logan said. A tad embarrassed, she raised her hand and patted him on the arm, shaking her head to signal him not to publicize her pregnancy. After all, it’s not certain yet since a pregnancy test may be wrong.

After a while, Logan again insisted through the phone, “It’s truly a good thing. Say, why can’t you just trust your son once?”

“Cut the crap!” Old Mr. Jefferson blurted. “I know your despicable character all too well. So, what trouble did you wreak this time?”

Logan hissed. “Old man, if you continue speaking like this, there’s nothing more to be said between us. I won’t tell you, then.”

Old Mr. Jefferson had no intention of yielding to his threat. He snorted, “Whatever! I’m not interested in whatever deplorable thing you’ve done. Just settle it yourself.” After saying that, he hung up the phone before Logan could respond.

Exclaiming, Logan’s face was filled with surprise as he gripped his cell phone in his hand. “This old man’s temper has gotten worse with me gone.”

Beside him, Lola burst out laughing. Dad is becoming increasingly child-like. At times, he’s even cuter than a child!

The plane’s cabin doors started closing after a while, so Logan turned off his cell phone.
