Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1609


Logan was about to become a father, yet he was still as childish and crazy as ever. Ian stared at Logan helplessly. Once Logan noticed the woman beside Ian, he greeted her politely. “Hello, Madam Peyton.”

Aurora nodded slightly before she lowered her cap. “Hello.” Logan reached over to take the luggage from Aurora’s hands before he strode toward the car. “Come on. The car’s waiting for us outside.”

The car was parked right beside the road after they stepped out from the terminal. Once they got into the car, Logan thought of something. “Hey, why didn’t you bring that assistant of yours?”

Aurora turned to glance at Ian, who pressed his lips together while maintaining the same expression on his face. “She went home. She hasn’t been home in a long while, and she has a long break to head home now.”

Logan didn’t know much about the situation, so he simply smacked his lips as he teased playfully. “Well, that’s a shame. You could have brought her home to introduce her to our friends.”

Ian fixed his gaze on the view outside the window without saying anything.

Logan might have been a little too excited—he didn’t realize how Ian seemed rather down that day. Instead, he continued blabbering about his own stuff in the car. He even mentioned some stuff about the situation with the Morgans.

Aurora only perked her ears to pay attention when she heard the mention of Bryce. Logan let out a long sigh as he spoke of the matter. “I heard that Old Mr. Morgan is in the ICU and that you don’t get to visit him that often. They only allow one visit per day,” Logan uttered. He changed the way he addressed Bryce since Aurora was right next to him.

Ian frowned. “What about the others?”

Logan knew who Ian was referring to. “Sean is going to work as usual. I heard someone mentioning that he went to the hospital, so I’m guessing that Sean met Old Mr. Morgan. There’s no need to talk about the rest of them—they’re probably just waiting to get their inheritance.”

Ian sniggered without commenting any further. Aurora sighed. “I thought I’d be able to show Bryce how successful I can be without him, but I don’t think he’ll get to witness it.”

Right then, Logan recalled what John uttered previously. “Think about it. Could Old Mr. Morgan be putting on a show just to test his children? He might change his will to leave more money for the ones who treat him better,” Logan suggested meekly.

Aurora frowned for a moment. “It’s not impossible. Bryce is a really vigilant person. He might not fully trust someone even if they’re blood-related family members,” she explained.

Logan drove all the way to the clubhouse, and Aurora followed them in to take a look at the place. Judging from the interior of the clubhouse, Aurora could tell that Logan was loaded. She was rather surprised that Ian had a friend like Logan.
