The Returning Ex

Feeling joyful that her parents wanted to visit her place, Lola asked, “Why don’t we go back to fetch you now?”

Startled at that reply, Fiona said, “There’s no need for that. I haven’t cleaned up the house yet, so I can’t go over today. When you’re free, just give us a call. We’ll hail a taxi. You don’t have to come over to fetch us.”

After giving it a thought, Lola said, “Alright. You can decide when you’ll come to visit us. Just call me in advance.”

In a hushed voice, Fiona inquired, “Lola, ask Logan how much is in the bank card.” Then, she hurriedly explained, “Those neighbors had come into the house and asked all kinds of questions. One of them even took over my card and helped me call the careline, but I didn’t manage to hear what the customer service representative said. After the inquiry, they left the house without telling me the amount of money. I’m a little concerned, so I’d like you to ask him about this. No matter how much is in the card, we won’t say anything. We just want to know the exact figure.”

Eyeing her husband, Lola grunted and told her mother, “I’ll ask him about it.” Then, she hung up the call.

Before she could speak, Logan asked with a smile, “Does your mom want to know the amount of money in the card?”
