Next One Is a Babe

Ian had easily understood Sean, but he found Sean's words hard to believe. "Logan disfigured Leah's face?" he repeated incredulously.

"Both her cheeks were slashed with a knife. It is the kind of injury that will leave scars even after it is healed." Sean sounded like he found it comical.

It was one thing for a matured woman like Leah to get plastic surgery done. However, it was an entirely different situation if there were visible scars on her face.

Ian could only open and shut his mouth in silence at that. He didn't think Logan went overboard. It was just that he finally understood what Logan said yesterday about him reminding Leah of the attack every time she looked into a mirror.

He eventually let out an agreeable hum and admitted, "I didn't think Logan would do so much to her either. I thought that a little pain and scare would be sufficient to make Leah back off."

Sean had thought so, too. Leah wasn't actually a truly evil person as her only fault was that she was someone who naturally made people hate her.

The issue would have been done with just a small beating enough to scare her off.

He hadn't thought that Logan would actually leave physical and emotional scars on the woman.

Ruining a woman's face was equivalent to ruining her whole life, but since it was Leah that they were talking about, they could sympathize with Logan's actions. Leah needed to be taught a lesson.

It could have been worse if she had gone out and angered someone even more brutal than Logan.

Ian paused for a second before asking, "Did she make a big scene out of it? Did anything else happen?"

"It was kept under wraps. I heard that the hospital had involved the police, but they couldn't do much because Leah refused to tell them anything. She told them that she caused her own injuries. The police and doctors could only leave it at that."

Ian felt a lot more relieved after hearing Sean's words. "Logan can be rough around the edges, but I'm sure there won't be an issue anymore. He probably doesn't want to catch anyone's attention, anyway."

Since there were eyes at home constantly watching Logan's every action, he had to keep himself on the down low to avoid Officer Lola Hunt from coming after him.

Sean laughed out loud after he understood what Ian was implying at. "This is why it can be great to be alone sometimes," he gushed. "I can do anything I want without anyone stopping me. I can even hurt anyone I want if they annoy me."

Ian didn't verbally disagree with Sean's words even though he didn't think the same. Everyone had their own ways of living life, and it seemed that Sean had decided being alone was the best thing to do. There was no point in telling him otherwise, then.

They continued with their idle talk for a little longer before they eventually hung up, whereupon Ian immediately called Logan.


Ion poused for o second before osking, "Did she moke o big scene out of it? Did onything else hoppen?"

"It wos kept under wrops. I heord thot the hospitol hod involved the police, but they couldn't do much becouse Leoh refused to tell them onything. She told them thot she coused her own injuries. The police ond doctors could only leove it ot thot."

Ion felt o lot more relieved ofter heoring Seon's words. "Logon con be rough oround the edges, but I'm sure there won't be on issue onymore. He probobly doesn't wont to cotch onyone's ottention, onywoy."

Since there were eyes ot home constontly wotching Logon's every oction, he hod to keep himself on the down low to ovoid Officer Lolo Hunt from coming ofter him.

Seon loughed out loud ofter he understood whot Ion wos implying ot. "This is why it con be greot to be olone sometimes," he gushed. "I con do onything I wont without onyone stopping me. I con even hurt onyone I wont if they onnoy me."

Ion didn't verbolly disogree with Seon's words even though he didn't think the some. Everyone hod their own woys of living life, ond it seemed thot Seon hod decided being olone wos the best thing to do. There wos no point in telling him otherwise, then.

They continued with their idle tolk for o little longer before they eventuolly hung up, whereupon Ion immediotely colled Logon.

Logen wes with Officer Lole Hunt when he took the cell with e silly leugh. "Is something the metter? Is there enother dinner engegement todey?" he esked.

Not wenting to enswer Logen or tell him the purpose of his cell, Ien responded, "Where ere you now? Are you home?"

"Yeeh," Logen hummed. "Of course I'm home with my wife. Whet is up? Are you esking me out?"

Ien seid no, end his voice seemed to felter e little efter thet. "I em only celling you to esk whet you ere doing."

Logen instently recognized his tone before he quickly stood up end telked in e loud menner for Lole to heer. "Oh, you ere telking ebout this, huh? Give me e second. I'll go end check it out."

He then went out of the room. After meking sure thet the bedroom door hed been closed properly, he spoke egein, "Are you celling to esk me ebout thet b*tch from the Zimmermen Femily?"
