The Returning Ex

The Returning Ex Chapter 1313

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. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

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

After keeping her phone, Lola replied in a helpless manner, “After we left, those neighbors went into my parents’ home and even helped them check the value in the bank card, but they didn’t tell my mom about it and left the house. My mom is concerned, so she told me to ask you about it.”

Logan chuckled. “Why do your neighbors always have to meddle in other people’s business?”

Leaning against the seat, Lola stretched her arms. “I think they just wanted to make fun of us if the card only contained a small amount of money. Then, I’d be the talk of the town again.”

Logan took her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “Don’t worry. I won’t give them the chance.”

Leaning close to him, Lola inquired, “So, how much is it? I still have to tell my mom about it.”

With a smile, Logan gripped her hand tighter, but he never uttered a word.

When they reached home, Logan had other matters to attend to. After packing up her stuff, Lola returned to her gym. Then, she called her mother and said, “Logan didn’t tell me how much it was. Why don’t you check it yourself?”

Despite the answer, Fiona was not disappointed, and she simply grunted in response. In fact, she had a feeling that there had to be a lot of money in the card. After a sigh, she went on to say, “In the past, we worked hard in order to improve our living standards. Now that we’re rich, our lives don’t seem to have changed profoundly.”

Lola chuckled. “Rich or not, we still have to live our lives.”

After a pause, Fiona continued, “I thought that after you left, the neighbors would gossip about you. For some reason, all of them never said anything.”

Having figured the reason, Lola replied, “I think that’s because the bridal price is indeed of great value, so they can’t say anything bad about us. It’s not like they can spread rumors that I’ve attracted a rich man with my beauty.”

When Fiona heard that answer, she replied with a vague ‘yeah’.

Following that, Lola taught her mother how to check the value in the bank card. After the call ended, she even sent her all the steps through a message. When she was done with all that, she put down the phone and leaned against the chair, feeling jolly.

Although she didn’t care what the neighbors would gossip about her, she would love to keep their mouths shut. Logan really did me proud.

Lola didn’t have much work to do at the gym. In the evening, she called Logan and asked him where he was. Instead of asking him to come over to fetch her, she would go over to his place on her own.

However, Logan seemed to be busy. After telling her the address, he also reminded her to be careful on the road.

Then, Lola hailed a taxi, but since it was rush hour, she was stuck in a traffic jam.
