Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1378

Logan hurriedly strode forward, worried that Mr. Hunt would end up on the losing end in the dispute. When he reached the courtyard, he then saw that it was only Mr. and Mrs. Hunt as well as a middle-aged woman in the entire yard. The middle-aged woman was indeed someone whom he was well-acquainted with, and they’d even had a squabble back then. It was Shawn’s mother. At the sight of Mrs. Long, the crease of his brows deepened.

Mrs. Long had also caught sight of him, whereupon she instantly put on a beaming smile. Putting aside her argument with Mr. Hunt, she pivoted and headed toward him. “Oh, you’re here, Logan? It’s been a long time.”

Stilling slightly, Logan stared at her expressionlessly. We’re not even acquaintances, yet this woman addressed me so familiarly!

“Why are you here?” Logan’s tone was also disgruntled.

Mrs. Long chortled. “I just passed by, so I came over for a look upon hearing that you’re back.”


As far as I know, the Longs don’t live in this village, so how could she possibly have ‘passed by’?

At the side, Mrs. Hunt had also dropped the polite smile from her face, her expression chagrined. “Lola is already married, and she’s been over with Shawn for ages. So, what’s the meaning of you coming here again?”

Mrs. Long heaved a sigh. “You’ve misunderstood me, dear friend. I’m not here to bring up the matter regarding Lola and Shawn. I’m truly here just for a look.”

“What do you want to see?” Logan demanded.

Taken aback, the smile on Mrs. Long’s face looked extremely fake. “Even if Lola didn’t end up with Shawn, they can still be friends. Thus, it’s not necessary for the two families to become enemies. Isn’t it good to just associate as fellow villagers?” It was as though she’d forgotten about the fact that their family of three had once come over to kick up a fuss.

Meanwhile, Lola had also awakened. Having been awakened from a deep sleep by the racket, her head was spinning. She sat up in the bed and stared out. From her angle, she just so happened to spot Mrs. Long’s countenance. After sitting for a while, she got up and went out.

The moment Mrs. Long saw Lola, her laughter increased in volume. “Oh, you finally came out, Lola! I was just wondering why I didn’t see you.”
