Chapter 1378


    Logan hurriedly strode forward, worried that Mr. Hunt would end up on the losing end in the dispute.


    When he reached the courtyard, he then saw that it was only Mr. and Mrs. Hunt as well as a middle-


    aged woman in the entire yard. The middle-aged woman was indeed someone whom he was well-


    acquainted with, and they’d even had a squabble back then. It was Shawn’s mother. At the sight of


    Mrs. Long, the crease of his brows deepened.


    Mrs. Long had also caught sight of him, whereupon she instantly put on a beaming smile. Putting aside


    her argument with Mr. Hunt, she pivoted and headed toward him. “Oh, you’re here, Logan? It’s been a


    long time.”


    Stilling slightly, Logan stared at her expressionlessly. We’re not even acquaintances, yet this woman


    addressed me so familiarly!


    “Why are you here?” Logan’s tone was also disgruntled.


    Mrs. Long chortled. “I just passed by, so I came over for a look upon hearing that you’re back.”

    As far as I know, the Longs don’t live in this vige, so how could she possibly have ‘passed by’?


    At the side, Mrs. Hunt had also dropped the polite smile from her face, her expression chagrined. “L


    is already married, and she’s been over with Shawn for ages. So, what’s the meaning of youing


    here again?”


    Mrs. Long heaved a sigh. “You’ve misunderstood me, dear friend. I’m not here to bring up the matter


    regarding L and Shawn. I’m truly here just for a look.”


    “What do you want to see?” Logan demanded.


    Taken aback, the smile on Mrs. Long’s face looked extremely fake. “Even if L didn’t end up with


    Shawn, they can still be friends. Thus, it’s not necessary for the two families to be enemies. Isn’t it


    good to just associate as fellow vigers?” It was as though she’d forgotten about the fact that their


    family of three had oncee over to kick up a fuss.


    Meanwhile, L had also awakened. Having been awakened from a deep sleep by the racket, her


    head was spinning. She sat up in the bed and stared out. From her angle, she just so happened to spot


    Mrs. Long’s countenance. After sitting for a while, she got up and went out.


    The moment Mrs. Long saw L, herughter increased in volume. “Oh, you finally came out, L! I


    was just wondering why I didn’t see you.”


    L’s face was devoid of expression. “I was sleeping, but your ear-splitting voice disrupted my sleep.”


    She’d seen Mrs. Long before when she was with Shawn. While she found her attitude rathercking at


    times, she still treated her respectfully since she was an elder. Now, however, things were different.


    She was reminded of Shawn at the sight of her, and subsequently, everything Shawn had done. Family


    background was truly important, so the fact that Shawn ended up in such disgrace now definitely had


    something to do with Mr. and Mrs. Long’s teaching. Putting it bluntly, it was still the parents’ negligence.


    Upon seeing such an attitude from her, Mrs. Long’s expression changed. But with Logan there, she


    didn’t dare pull a long face with L, merely putting away the awkward smile on her face. “Well, aren’t I


    here to look in on you now?”


    L sneered. “Do I need you to look in on me? Am I very close with you?” No one expected her to


    suddenly get up in arms when she’d always been amicable.


    Mrs. Long was stunned, almost passing out from fury at this rebuttal.


    Amusement flooded Logan. This was his first time seeing L raving at someone else besides him


    since all of her temper was directed at him in the past. Thus, he went over and wrapped an arm around


    her shoulder. “Don’t get angry. If you don’t want to see her, we’ll just kick her out.” He was a man of his


    word, for just after he’d finished saying that to her, he turned to Mrs. Long and red at her. “Get out!


    You’re not weed.” Then, he again spoke softly to L. “Come, let’s go back in and sleep for a


    while longer. You haven’t slept much.”


    Going along with his movements, L turned around and followed him into the house. After closing the


    door behind them, L recalled Mrs. Long’s expression when Logan humiliated her earlier, and she


    burst intoughter. Pinching her face, Logan leaned over and kissed her. L then pushed him gently.


    “Behave.”
