Chapter 1228
Logan burst intoughter beforeforting her. “Don’t you worry. I am definitely the lowliest among my
family. Haven’t you just bought yourself a pet fish some time ago? I dare say that even the fish would
be of a higher status than me.”
Chuckling, L gave him a pinch on his waist before falling silent. After some time, Logan got another

call from the clubhouse to inform him that their meal had arrived downstairs. Logan informed them of
the unit number, and within a minute, there came a knock on the door.
Logan hurriedly went to take it, and L was surprised by the amount of food that he ordered. With
multiple bags in their hands, four men were seen standing by the door, delivering the food to them. L
had to admit that it was a feat in itself when she walked up to check on them.
All of a sudden, she felt like she had sinned uponying eyes on the sheer amount of food despite
having no knowledge of it while Logan was ordering them over the phone. It would be a waste if we
can’t finish the food, she thought to herself.
Meanwhile, the four men greeted L in unison as soon as they saw her. “Good evening, Mrs.
Jefferson.”
L wasn’t the only one caught off guard by their address, as Logan was the same, which led to him
feigning anger while motioning to kick the rascals who came up with the idea. “You scared my
girlfriend, you rascals!”
The four attendants who delivered the meal burst intoughter as soon as Logan said so. After that,
they took everything into the house, even cing them on the table considerately. The food filled up the
entire table, so instead of a meal, it felt more like they were setting up for a banquet. As soon as they
were done setting the table, the attendants snuck up to Logan’s side before one of them retrieved a
bottle of wine that he handed to Logan. “We also made sure to bring this with us.”
Bewildered, Logan took the wine from them beforeughing out loud. He gave the attendant that
presented the wine a pat on the shoulder before praising him. “You guys sure are thoughtful.”
The man chuckled before saying, “Alright, you should take your time to savor the meal. We will be
leaving now.” When L returned from the kitchen with some dining utensils in her hands, the men
were all gone.
Logan gave the bottle of wine he held a good shake before letting out a chuckle. Meanwhile, L
merely nced at it without giving much thought, only to retrieve two wine sses from the kitchen
after some hesitation. As soon as Logan saw the sses, he furrowed his brows. “I never knew you
have wine sses in your house! Who did you drink with?”
Smiling, L sat down by the table. “I once went to a rather gruesome crime scene while on duty, and
for a week’s time after that, I could hardly sleep, so I bought some red wine that I downed before
sleeping. I drank alone, and I bought the sses from a mall, which were sold in pairs.”
Logan nodded. “Fair enough.”
Since L had a corkscrew in her house as well, Logan uncorked the wine before pouring a ss of
wine for each of them. The wine was probably taken from the clubhouse, but they didn’t have a
decanter, so they left the wine in the ss for the time being while they proceeded to enjoy their food.
L was utterly famished, so she dug in without even sparing the time to chat with Logan. After a
while, Logan raised his wine ss before swaying it in front of L, who didn’t seem to care much
about etiquette as she quickly clinked her ss with Logan’s. Then, she downed the wine in one go.
Although she seldom drank, she drank a lot whenever she did. However, Logan didn’t remind her to
slow down, merely filling up her ss again with a smile. L didn’t even nce his way while she
continued eating. Throughout the meal, Logan clinked his ss with hers multiple times, and she
downed her wine every time he did so. L didn’t actually know how well she could hold her liquor, as
she seldom drank in order to remain alert at all times.
