Instinctively Defending Him

The surrounding area fell silent in an instant.

 

Gavin frowned—he absolutely couldn't let Logan hear this.

 

"Mr. Reid, Selina and I need to catch up…"

 

"If you two aren't actually siblings, then having me around during your conversation shouldn't be an issue, right?" Logan chuckled lightly.

 

Gavin's throat tightened. Now he truly understood what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot. He cleared his throat awkwardly, "Ahem… Selina, what do you think?"

 

Logan's smile remained faint as he turned to her as well. "Mrs. Reid, would you mind if I joined you?"

 

Selina: "…"

 

She suddenly had the eerie feeling that if she said "no," she wouldn't survive the night.

 

"Well… since Logan wants to listen in, let him. After all, Mr. Hill, you don't have any secrets to tell me, do you?"

 

Gavin understood her hint. "Alright then, Mr. Reid, please."
