This was probably the first time someone disrespected her, or rather, what Logan did could be considered
humiliation. She stared at them as they left, then when Logan was about to exit, he looked back at her and
sneered. The mockery she felt made her face fall.
Sophia went out first, and she called out to Logan. “Let’s go, Logan.”
Their car was parked at the boutique’s doorstep. It was almost peak hour now, so many users were parking
dangerously. When they came to their car, they saw a traffic officer issuing a fine for one of the cars there. The
owner quickly came to explain himself.
He said he had to leave for an urgent matter, but there were no spaces, so he had to park this way. The officer
refused to listen to his explanation, and he kept on with issuing the fine. When Logan saw that, he frowned at the
officer and snorted before going into the car.
Sophia was reminded of something else. “Do you hate them? Because of the surprise checks they pull on your
club?”
Logan revved the car and drove away. “No. Just one in particular. She can’t even find anything, but still I get yelled
at. That woman is just here for trouble. That gets on my nerves.”

Mrs. Bailey is?”
Logan was reminded of a particularly annoying face. If it weren’t because she was a woman, he would have
sabotaged her. “Don’t talk about her.” He looked disgusted. “I don’t want my mood ruined. Let’s grab some grub.”
They went to a restaurant, then Logan started blabbering about a lot of things. One of it was the talent show his
sister invested in. “It’s almost done. The mentors were decided, and all of them are giants in the industry. It’s going
to be a hit, I tell you.”
“What about Ian? Did he say anything?”
Logan shook his head. “Not yet. I talked to him last night, but there’s no reply yet.”
He’s probably still hesitating. Sophia thought about the thing he was going to say before John’s interruption last
night. Was it related to this show? So why did he stutter? Sophia smiled.
Was he feeling guilty because he was going to take part in this show right after I helped him get his position? Oh, he
worries too much. I don’t care about that. He should know about that. Besides, I’ve always supported him doing
what he wants. I thought it’s obvious. “Let me talk to him,” she said after a moment of thinking.
It was still morning after they had their meal, so they went to Sophia’s shop. Thanks to the renovation being mostly
done, it was a different place from before. The renovators said the sign would be done by afternoon. Even Logan
thought it was a decent job.
Wanting to share the results, Sophia called Robin and invited her over. Robin was getting bored being at home
alone, so she quickly came after taking the call. When she came, Logan could imagine himself playing games with
his friends, and he couldn’t hold his itch back.
While the ladies were talking in the shop, he called Ian, but nobody picked it up the first time. Logan looked at the
time. It’s almost noon though. Then, he made another call, and it went through this time.
