Chapter 1236


    They stopped asking after knowing that the Jeffersons could crush them if they stepped out of line.


    Instead, they talked about Shawn. ording to them, the Longs went to apologize to Shawn’s ex-


    girlfriend, and they even brought gifts, but they were chased out. The Longs knew it’d be hard to set


    Shawn up with someone else around here given his infamy, so they tried to reconnect with Shawn’s ex.


    The Longs thought if they pretended to apologize, Shawn’s ex-girlfriend would date him again,


    considering his supposedly superior conditions. After all, she did date him for three years, and they


    thought every other man would shun her after finding out about her abortion, so they went for a visit in


    hopes of reconnecting. However, they never expected that they would fail, and they were even chased


    out.


    Shawn’s ex-girlfriend’s family was a feisty one. “My daughter won’t marry scum like your son even if


    he’s thest man in this world!” her parents yelled.


    Mr. Long was a coward, and he knew his son was in the wrong, so he chose to take the insult, but not


    Mrs. Long. In contrast to her husband, she was an unpleasant person, and she started a shouting


    match there and then.


    Shawn’s matter would have gone with the wind soon, but the nosy neighbors gossiped about it again


    after Mrs. Long’s argument. Of course, L heard it, but she ignored them and kept on with her meal.


    The neighbors wanted to see her reaction after hearing the gossip, but L stayed calm, refusing to


    y along. Langdon too ignored what they were saying.


    Then, he popped open one of the wines Logan gifted him before pouring some for himself and Logan.


    Fiona and L didn’t want them to drink, but since the nosy neighbors were around, they let the men


    do what they wanted. A momentter, Langdon took a sip of the wine, and to his surprise, it was nice. It


    was smooth, refreshing, and soothing to the throat. “Nice wine.” He nodded.


    “Have some more if you like it,” L blurted. “We have to live our lives how we want, right?”


    Langdon nodded. “Of course we do. Why should we care what anyone says? They ain’t us. Their


    opinions are bull.”


    Oblivious to the fact that the Hunts were talking about them, the neighbors kept talking about Shawn. “I


    heard Shawn sent someone to ask around about L, but I bet he isn’t trying to reconnect. He’s a guy,


    after all, and the breakup humiliated him. It’s natural he wants to know how L is doing. See if she’s


    having it worse than he is. I bet he minds it a lot.”


    Logan’s lips twitched, and he finally interjected, “L and I are getting married. If he wants to know


    how she’s doing, tell him to attend our wedding.”


    L was shocked by Logan’s sudden announcement, but she was in no position to snap at him. On the

    other hand, Langdon nodded. “Yep. If he cares about L, I don’t mind inviting him to the wedding. He


    used to be friends with L after all, and the more the merrier.”
