“Sure,” Ian agreed immediately. “Go ahead and call Sophia. The more, the merrier.”
Even if Ian did not bring it up, Logan would still have given Sophia a call. However, Ian’s specific reminder got Logan
thinking. Ian does not seem to have let go of Sophia. Last time, at Lynett’s birthday, Ian definitely saw for himself
the strong relationship between Sophia and John. Why is he still being stubborn?
Logan silently sighed. “Okay, I will call her now. Let’s set the time and date—meet at six tomorrow evening at my
clubhouse. I will be waiting.”
Ian agreed to it and ended the call. Instead of calling Sophia right away, Logan clutched his phone with a dazed
expression.
Beside him, Lola turned to look at him with her hand supporting her head. “Why? You look like you have just broken
up.”

applied to certain things, but it turns out that he’s equally stubborn when it comes to relationships.”
The difficulty of letting go after falling for someone was probably a shared experience for everyone who had been
through relationships. However, Sophia and John were in a stable relationship with a baby on the way. If Ian
continued to fixate on her, he would only make himself feel terrible.
Lola recalled that Ian was a warm and gentle person, the type of man that was rare nowadays. At the thought of
that, she smiled. “I bet the right girl has not turned up in his life yet. When she finally arrives, things will change for
the better.”
Her remark reminded Logan of himself. Isn’t it similar? Before this, his father and his four sisters were nagging him
about marriage all day long. They feared that he would be stuck as a bachelor for the rest of his life.
But look, the right person appeared in his life at the end. On the day of their marriage registration, Logan made
some arrangements prior to the appointment. When he arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau with Lola, someone was
already waiting for them. This was Lola’s first experience of special treatment from personal connections, and she
agreed that Logan’s connections made things easier for them. It was at this moment that she realized it was out of
blind luck that she stumbled her way into a wealthy family. The bureau staff invited them to a small room upstairs,
where snacks and drinks were prepared for them. Even so, Logan was in no mood for tea or snacks. Instead, he
displayed all his documents and urged, “Quick, quick, let’s get the registration done.” Staring at his impatient
actions, Lola became speechless. The staff took the documents away to be photocopied, at the same time
providing them with two forms to fill. With great anticipation, Logan immediately grabbed a pen and started
scribbling away. Compared to him, Lola was more patient. She first looked through everything on the form. The
questions were all about basic background information, which was not too different from the forms for other official
matters.

Soon, the staff returned with the copies and stood beside them to instruct them on how to fill in certain information.
After the couple was done with the forms, they went to take a photo. With a red background behind them, they
stood side by side for the photoshoot. The photographer probably was used to complimenting his clients. The
moment he opened his mouth, he praised the couple as a match made in heaven. According to him, they looked
perfect for each other. The staff at the bureau were all used to dishing out compliments. Although Logan and Lola
knew that the staff were merely doing their jobs and did not congratulate from the bottom of their hearts, the
couple still felt happy upon hearing the praises. After the photoshoot, Logan went over to present a money
envelope to the photographer, who was pleasantly surprised and started showering them with praises again. Next,
it was time to wait for the issuance of the marriage certificate. They returned to the same room from before, after
which Logan started to act antsy and paced in the room.
