Chapter 1189


    Shawn looked rather reluctant, but still, he dragged his feet over and said that he wanted to apologize to L.

    L was still standing in the house. Beside her, Logan chuckled. “Go on and see what he has to say.”


    Truthfully, L didn’t want to talk to Shawn. However, he then called out to her again, so she had no choice but to go out.


    Shawn’s expression was a tadplicated when he spotted her. Never had he imagined that the matter would be blown into pieces at her


    hands. In his opinion, her family was just average, so while she had friends in authority due to her former profession, he wasn’t at all afraid


    since all those people were bound by thew. He didn’t believe that he’d be on the losing end, nor did he believe that they’d surreptitiously


    make things difficult for him.


    However, never had it crossed his mind that Logan would be the variable in this. He didn’t take him seriously back then, but he’d been put in


    his ce today. Although he didn’t lose his job, he’d been stripped of his position. The higher-ups didn’t give him a specific reason, but they


    hinted that he’d offended someone he shouldn’t have offended, and they even urged him to settle the problem as soon as possible, else his


    days would be even worse.


    This ‘someone’ couldn’t be L, so after mulling it over, he concluded that it was Logan who warned him today. He initially thought that


    Logan was merely talking big, but unexpectedly, he truly had the ability to make life difficult for him.


    Shawn then cast his gaze into the house, but he didn’t see Logan. At this, rage consumed him. I’ve truly missed taking him into consideration!


    If only I’d known about it, I wouldn’t have pestered L for so long! He pressed his lips into a t line, only apologizing to her after an


    eternity.


    Then, he insisted that he didn’t mean anything, merely reluctant to break up with her since his feelings for her were real. It was actually no


    different from the contents of his ‘short essays’ in the past; other than the apology at the beginning, everything that followed was justification


    of his actions.


    Regret assailed L for havinge out, for she truly didn’t want to listen to this whole spiel. Thus, when he was going to continue


    expounding on his ‘short essay,’ she held up a hand to stop him. “You don’t need to say so much, Shawn. I’ve made myself clear to you.


    We’re indeed unsuited, and I’ve told you this.


    As long as you stop pestering me, we’ll go our separate ways.” After staring at her for a long while, Shawn finally nodded. “Okay, we’ll go


    our separate ways.” The two of them were very blunt, and the matter was seemingly cast in stone. L then whirled around and went back


    into the house. Meanwhile, Logan was still gazing out with a half-smile on his face. Mr. and Mrs. Long, on the other hand, were embarrassed


    at once. They were still holding gifts in their hands, wavering between keeping up the inane talk and turning around to leave. Noticing Mrs.


    Long’s unease, Mr. Hunt dered, “Take everything back, for we’re not going to ept them. Also, don’te here anymore.


    Just pretend that we’ve never been acquainted.” Mr. Long nodded. “Sure, sure, no problem.” Without putting down the gifts, the Longs turned


    around and left the courtyard. When they’d reached the gate, Mrs. Long’s mutterings drifted faintly into the air. However, she wasn’t cursing


    out the Hunts. Rather, she was castigating Mr. Long for his cowardice, iming that she’d been humiliated. Regardless, they asked for it!
