The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1109

Logan spent his time spacing out in the mansion till evening before giving Jasmine a call, as he was itching to settle

things between them once and for all. Picking up, she asked him why he called, but she quickly turned him down as

soon as Logan said he had something to tell her over dinner that night.

She told him she would be busy, so she wouldn’t be able to have dinner with him. Other than that, Logan was also

told that she would be busy with school activities, as their teachers were planning to hold an intensive training

session. Despite how serious she sounded, Logan wasn’t sure if she was telling the truth. In short, they made no

progress at all even after the phone call.

With his phone in hand, Logan thought in resignation, Things would drag on if she kept on avoiding me. After some

thought, Logan decided to leave the Constance Residence for Jasmine’s school, as he figured he should be able to

intercept her there.

The students stepped out of the gates one after another when school ended. Puffing on a cigarette, Logan lowered

the windows while staring at the school’s entrance. Soon enough, he saw Jasmine coming out alone looking

somewhat crestfallen. Usually, she was energetic even when alone, always seen with an ever present smile on her

face. However, she seemed down and obviously unhappy, which made Logan blame himself, as Jasmine wouldn’t

be like that if it wasn’t for him. At that instant, he realized how unthoughtful and arbitrary he had been.

Logan went after Jasmine after getting out of the car, but she saw him before he got to her. His presence seemed

to have surprised her, as she took a step back out of reflex. Puffing on his cigarette, Logan seemed lackadaisical

when he suggested, “We should have dinner together even if you’re busy.”

The serious expression he wore seemed to indicate he wasn’t about to accept a refusal from Jasmine. She clutched

onto her bag before agreeing in hesitation, as she figured she wouldn’t be able to hide from him forever.

Afterall, what was bound to happen would be inevitable. The two of them sat down in a restaurant not far away

from the school. Neither of them had much of an appetite, so they didn’t order a lot of food despite Logan’s best

efforts to maintain a facade. Jasmine spoke first after the waiter left with the menu. “Just tell me what you plan to

say.” She even put on a smile when she said so. “I don’t think I can hide from you any longer since you came to

intercept me at my school even though I tried to avoid you.” Heaving a sigh, Logan opened up. “Personally, I don’t

like to drag things on, so I prefer to solve whatever problems I am faced with as soon as possible. Jasmine, I will

admit that I am the one who has failed you.” Logan wasn’t entirely sure how he should explain things to her, so he

could only try his best. “I like you a lot, but I misconstrued it as romantic love. Our relationship might be a little

different from what we think it is, as I only like you as a friend. I already reflected on my actions, and I believe you

also noticed that I never treated you seriously, nor was I ever considerate, as I have been constantly ignoring your

feelings. Previously, I never gave much thought to my behaviors, but I know for sure now that my love for you is

that of a friend’s, never a lover’s.” After that, he apologized to her, as well as offered her monetary compensation,

as that was the only form of compensation he could afford, so he told her to name a price. His final sentence left

Jasmine feeling so upset that she ended up laughing. “Do you think I dated you because you’re rich?”
