Chapter 973

I stared at the messages Lisa had sent me, sensing that something was off. I called her, but she declined the call and sent a message instead. "I'm at my grandpa's, and Ms. Cohen is here too." I had no choice but to continue to text her. "Did Logan upset you today?" She responded with a string of ellipses, which only piqued my curiosity. "What's going on?" I asked. Her response was brief. "He brought his girlfriend home today." Along with her message, she sent a screenshot of a payment receipt. "Look for the highlights." When I zoomed in on the image, I noticed the words "acknowledgment gift". "Wow! He's so generous—an acknowledgment gift of 999 dollars. What did you acknowledge that's worth so much?" I was surprised. Lisa sent me a voice message explaining the situation. At the end, she said, "He said he'd had a crush on me for ages, and then suddenly he's got a new girlfriend. What a hypocrite!" I didn't respond, instead turning to Brandon and nudging his hand with my foot.
