Chapter 56
Irene thought, "It's our first meeting, so I want to make a good impression. She decided it was best to reserve her judgment about Logan's family until she met them in person.
She said, "Okay. Your dad and I will head into town for groceries. Are you still harvesting fruits? Why don't you bring your in-laws over now?
Lorraine replied, "Grandma wants to tour the orchards, so we'll return later. Plus, I have to prepare fruit baskets for Sonia's company. It's a busy day."
Irene emphasized, "No matter how busy you are, you must spend time with your in-laws. There are plenty of workers at the orchards, so let them take care of those tasks." The orchards had a bountiful harvest this year, but Irene worried about selling all the fruits,
Fortunately, Lorraine struck gold. With Sonia's help, she secured a large order that nearly sold out the early-season cherries, and another big order was on the way,
Irene was good with numbers. Although she wasn't involved in Lorraine's business anymore, she kept a close eye on the orchards' production. She also tracked the purchase prices and monitored daily market rates.
After doing some quick math, she realized that the earnings from these two large orders would cover Lorraine's expenses for the year.
"I'll take care of the arrangements, Mom."
Trene reminded her daughter of a few more things before she hung up. She then hurriedly went grocery shopping with Charles to prepare a nice meal for their in-laws. Logan brought Hestia and Joslin into Lorraine's collage. "Mom, Lorraine's place is pretty modest"
Joslin scanned the room. Despite its simplicity, it was spotless and welcoming. Smiling, she said, "She's your wife, we wouldn't mind even if it was just a thatched cottage." Hestared to the driver and said, "Markus, stay outside and keep watch. When Lorraine gets back, come in and join us."
"okay," he pled and stood at the door.
With no outsiders around, Hestia smacked Logan's arm. She couldn't give him a solid whack without her cane, so she opted for a few light smacks to weather frustration. Logan took it without complaining "You brat! How could you keep such a big secent from us? Don't you know we've been waiting for you to get married? Instead, you rushed into it, kept it a secret, and told such a bigle. When Lorraine replaces out the truth, you'll be in big trouble"
When the moment arrived, Hestia wouldn't come to Logan's defense or feel sympathy for him. Instead, she would just watch and enjoy the drama as it unfolded.
She had lined up several blind dates, but he never showed up to any. Ever since adopting Luna and Finnegan, Logan telt happy just having them around. This only made the elders in his family more concerned about his chances of setting down
Logan explained, "Grandma, I was just going with the flow. Lorraine mistook me for her blind date and assumed I was aconstruction worker. I happened to be dressed like one because I was just at the construction site. When she made that assumption, I just went along with it.
"I didn't to hide it from you meant to call later, but things got hectic. Jacob ordered over 2,000 fruit baskets from Lorraine, so I've been busy harvesting fruits.
Who would have imagined that the CEO of Moore Corporation, an heir from a wealthy family, would replace himself picking cherries while sweating away under the hot sun? "Can you guys cope with the workload? If not, hire assistance. Don't let Lorraine overexert herself 1ed her the moment I saw her. She's beautiful and has a delightful personality." Hestia had a favorable impression of Lorraine. Joslin had no objections ther
Logan had always had a hard time with relationships. His high standards only complicated things further. If she voiced her concerns, she risked the chance of him never settling down Claim Banus For Free Every Day
