The Returning Ex

The Returning Ex Chapter 206

There was a small private room specifically reserved for Logan to dine in. Following the lead of the waiter, Sophia examined the rooms one by one when she passed by them, but luck wasn’t on her side, as she didn’t encounter any instances during which a waiter would open the doors to any of the rooms. The doors to the rooms remained sealed even as they arrived at the room reserved for Logan, into which Sophia entered while pouting.

When they were ordering their food, Logan was restless throughout the entire process. He held the menu in his hands while introducing each dish to Sophia and Robin with much attentiveness, which made for even better service than the waiters.

Sophia was amused by his antics as she replied, “You can order whatever you want. You will be paying for the meal anyway.”

There was a pause as Logan glanced at Sophia before wearing a smile on his face. “You sure cut to the chase!” He then ordered a few dishes straight away without even looking at the menu, then he stood up while he said, “I would prefer to pick out the seafood that we will be served.”

The waiter quickly opened the door for him. “This way, Young Master Jefferson.”

It was after Logan had left the room in his pajamas that Sophia pursed her lips. “Ian, your friend seems like a nice person.”

Her remark was met by a smile on Ian’s face. “That’s just how Logan is. He sure is nice.”

It had been a while since Logan left, but he had yet to return, which was getting on Sophia’s nerves. “What’s going on? Did he run away? Did he just leave us here after ordering all those dishes?”

While Sophia was joking, Ian went along with it, “That might very well be the case.”

Thus, she stood up. “I’ll go get him.”

Ian nodded. “Go on.” Then, she was gone by the next instant.

There was an area for which the customers could pick out the live seafood that they wished to be served. Sophia spotted Logan as soon as she arrived at the area, whom she approached while wearing a frown. “Logan, it’s been quite some time since you left, so are you planning to wait until they grow any bigger before you pick them out?”

After she had said that, Sophia noticed that someone was standing in front of Logan, and that person was none other than John Constance. Despite the slight pause in her movements, she wasn’t all that surprised by his presence, as she had already seen his car outside. Thus, she approached him openly while greeting him. “Fancy seeing you here.”

On the other hand, John was visibly surprised while he looked toward her with a frown. “Why are you here? Do you and Logan know each other?”

A cry of surprise could be heard from Logan. “What? Do you know President Constance?”

Sophia blinked as she questioned Logan, “I’ve been meaning to ask if you ever read the tabloids?”

To that, Logan shook his head in response rather proudly. “I would rather play a few more rounds of poker than read those if I have the time.”

Sophia was suppressing a laughter as she pressed on, “Do you not know about John’s wedding? It was such a grand event.”

“Yeah, I was one of the guests he invited,” said Logan. However, there were a lot of guests during the occasion, so he drank even more alcohol than the newly wed couple did. In the end, he was so drunk that he had to be carried away. By the time he came to, he didn’t seem to remember anything of the banquet.

Sophia pursed her lips before asking, “The wedding dress I wore was said to be sent to us by flight, while the diamonds and gemstones on it were embroidered onto the dress by hand. Did such an extravagant outfit not manage to catch your attention?”

Upon reaching that point, Logan began taking a closer look at Sophia, which resulted in immense shock as he pointed his finger at her. “Y-Y-You—”

Sophia moved his hand away while imitating him. “I-I-I—yeah, your guess is correct!”

It was then that Logan cast a glance in the direction of the room that they were in. “I assumed you are Ian’s girlfriend! So are you telling me you aren’t?”

Sophia blinked before replying to him, “Of course I’m not.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
