Chapter 162 Adeline Didn't Know What to Do

Jodie's face lit up with joy. Was Logan planning to have a heart-to-heart talk with her?

She blushed and lowered her head, quietly listening to Logan's story.

"My friend is really troubled, so he came to me asking for advice," Logan paused for a moment after speaking. He then glanced at the backseat and continued, "If you were that girl, what would you do?"

Jodie knew Logan was testing her.

Her lips quivered slightly as she assumed a righteous demeanor, "If I were in her shoes and knew he didn't have feelings for me, I'd see it as an adult mistake and quietly walk away, pretending nothing had occurred."

Getting emotional, Jodie sniffled and said, "I'd also tell that man not to come looking for me again. I wouldn't disturb his and his girlfriend's happiness."

"Right," Logan nodded in approval. "Well, your thoughts align with mine."

Jodie was taken aback!

Why did Logan respond this way?

Shouldn't he have thought she was being tactful, incredibly noble, and then felt sorry for her?

Lost in shock, Jodie heard Logan's calm voice before she could react.

"I also told my male friend that if he truly loves his fiancée and wouldn't marry anyone but her, then he should forget about this incident and take proper precautions."

With that, Logan took out a box of contraceptive pills and placed it on the armrest between the front seats.

Feeling shocked, Jodie's face turned pale at the sight of the pills, and she looked at Logan in disbelief.

"Logan, you..."

Logan didn't turn around, and said in a calm tone, "Your perspective is the same as my friend's, isn't it?"

Jodie choked up as she struggled to find words. She was overwhelmed by a sense of despair, as if her heart were being relentlessly pierced by sharp blades.

Feeling miserable, she picked up the contraceptive pills with her hand trembling uncontrollably.

"Logan, does your friend really have no feelings for that woman?"

"No, my friend can't seem to understand it. It's quite clear that the woman could have easily called for help or asked her brother to assist. Why did she have to tarnish his reputation?" Logan said with frustration evident in his tone.

Hearing this, Jodie's heart felt like it almost stopped due to the piercing pain.

Was he implying that she had tarnished him?

Sorrow turned into anger as tears began to fall from Jodie's eyes.

They both spent the remainder of the journey to the airport in silence.

Once on the plane, Logan also secured separate seats for both of them.

Jodie clenched the box of contraceptive pills in her hand until it was deformed, and her gaze turned increasingly furious.

There was no way she was going to take contraceptive pills!

On the other side, at the Bay Hall.

After receiving Sara's recording, Adeline was left speechless for a while.

After a long moment, she turned to Curtis, "Has Victoria gone crazy?"

Curtis squinted his icy-cold eyes and barely managed to squeeze out a sentence through his teeth, "She probably wants to kick herself out of the Riley family!"

"Oh hubby, this is too dangerous. Perhaps I shouldn't have Olivia accompany me tomorrow night." As Adeline finished her words, she hesitated and furrowed her brows, "Or do you think I should tell Olivia about this?"

Curtis's expression softened a bit as he looked at his young wife, "You already have the answer in your heart, don't you?"

"Even if we manage to keep Olivia away from it this time, what about next time?"

"As long as Victoria insists on pairing Olivia with Reuben, she'd continue resorting to these dirty tricks."

"The best way to protect Olivia isn't to shield her from the world, but to help her grow up quickly."

As his words trailed off, Olivia returned from outside.

She looked excitedly at Adeline, "Hey, my mom wants to apologize to you in person! My brother had an urgent matter with his archaeological team, so he went back. He won't be able to make it tomorrow. Worried that you two might feel awkward, my mom asked me to join you."

With that, Olivia took Adeline's hand and expressed her feelings.

"Both of you mean a lot to me. I hope that after tomorrow night, your relationship will be okay, and I won't be caught in the middle anymore. Adeline, can you please forgive my mom after she apologizes tomorrow? Can we just let this matter go? Is that okay?"

Adeline withdrew her hand and looked troubled as she gazed at Olivia. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Well, I can't just let this matter go."

After those words, Adeline played the audio that Sara had covertly recorded.
