The Returning Ex

Meanwhile, Logan was awake. He was standing by the window in his room as he was trying hard to live down the humiliation of being roughed up by a woman. Because of that, he couldn’t keep his eyes shut and sleep. Instead, he smoked one cigarette after another until he started to feel a little dizzy. Then, he opened up the window while standing there, wanting to think out loud. However, nothing came out of his mouth because his mind was blank.

Soon, a waiter approached Logan to inform him about the arrival of Matilda and Sophia. In response, Logan replied, “I see. Just tell them that I’m asleep. Sophia knows her way around here.” Feeling moody, Logan was hoping that someone could lend him a pair of ears to confide in, but he subsequently had a change of heart as he only wished to keep to himself.

After the waiter headed outside to receive Sophia and Matilda, Logan went to his bed and lay in it. At this moment, he received a message on his phone, which he chose to ignore when it rang once earlier. Now that he was lying in his bed, he finally decided to reach for his phone to check out his message. It turned out that it was a message from one of Logan’s subordinates when he couldn’t be reached via calls.

Upon skimming through the message, Logan angrily swore to himself. “Darn it, b*tches! Who the hell gives two hoots about her?!” Then, he tossed his phone aside and turned around in bed, wrapping himself in his blanket as he closed his eyes. There is nothing sleeping can’t solve. After all, that’s the only moment that I can be free from all this disturbance.

In the meantime, Sophia and Matilda came to a private lounge, where they were served with fruits and tea before the waiter excused himself. After that, Sophia held Matilda’s arm and said, “Alright, so what happened back there?”
