Chapter 156 Interview with Logan
Chapter 156 Interview with Logan
Clara and others in her department prepared materials and then set out for the interview with Logan.
Unfortunately, the company's cars were all sent out, so they had to take a taxi.
Clara walked to the side of the road and reached out her hand for a taxi. A taxi drove by and stopped in
front of her.
The driver was a middle-aged man. He seemed to be particularly excited to see Clara.
The driver said, "You must be Mrs. Kirkland! Get in the car please! Where's your destination? It's a
pleasure for me to drive you there!"
Sarah was stunned and said, "Clara, you have become famous now! Even among taxi drivers!"
Luis had already got into the taxi. He waved at them and said, "Come on! It's time to go! No time for
chit-chat now."
Clara took the seat next to the driver's seat.

Clara felt very uncomfortable with that but she kept silent.
The driver said, "So you are married to Horace Kirkland, right? Then why are you calling a taxi? By
yourself?"
Clara felt her mouth a little bit dry. She answered politely, "well, we are going to Dacazo Cultural
Center. A taxi is a good option because parking is difficult there. "
"The antique exhibition?"
Sarah said, "Do you know the antique exhibition?"
The driver smiled and said proudly, "Of course I do. If you want to know what's new about the city, just
ask us taxi drivers. We will tell you anything you want to know. The items in this antique exhibition are
very intriguing. It's worth seeing."
Sarah was very excited and asked the driver a lot of questions and they were having quite a long and
loud conversation.
Clara was sitting up straight, and all she wanted was for time to pass faster so that she could get off the
car as soon as possible.
When she finally arrived at the destination and got off the car, Clara was relieved.
It seemed that the whole city knew Clara over one night. It was like a nightmare for her because she
really did not want to be the center of attention.
They got a little bit thirsty. Clara offered to go to the nearby store and got them some bottled water.
In the store, as she was picking up the water on the shelves, she felt as if there were people staring at
her behind her.
She turned around and found that the salesperson in the store was looking at her. Did she think she
was a shoplifter? Clara felt irritated.
She picked up the bottled water and went to the checkout counter with a cold face.
The salesgirl didn't seem to care about her attitude and she said with a smile, "Mrs. Kirkland, it's a
great honor for us to serve you today."
Clara thought to herself, "Not again!"
The salesgirl also stretched his neck to look outside of the door. Clara turned around in that direction
but saw nothing.
The salesgirl asked, "Isn't Mr. Kirkland with you today?"
Clara shook her head and said, "I'm here for the antique exhibition."
The salesman seemed disappointed to know that he was not with her.
Clara walked out of the store. Sarah and Luis had been waiting for a long so they said, "Clara, the
antique exhibition has already begun. We need to hurry."
"Sorry, someone was asking me about Horace again. That was really disturbing..."
Clara knew Horace's influence, but she didn't expected it to be this huge. Not everyone could bare
such public attention, but Horace seemed to be at ease with it.
They came to the exhibition hall.
Logan was explaining the origin of an ancient ceramic vase to one of his clients.
Sarah immediately noticed his exceptionally good-looking face!
Sarah said, "OMG, is the real? I have never seen such a beautiful face before in my life!"
Luis, instead, was sarcastic. He said, "A good-looking face is not the answer to all problems in life. By
the way, now I finally knew why I am still single. It's because the woman around me always judges a
book by its cover!"
Clara knew they were joking so she said, "All right, you two. Let's get back to work."
Logan saw Clara and his colleagues waiting for him. He quickly finished talking with the client and
walked toward them.
Logan was wearing a white shirt with dark lines today. The faint smell of cologne just stirred up their
sense of smell and made them feel better unconsciously.
His face was smiling, his bright eyes glinting with cheerfulness and vigor.
Sarah was captivated by his beauty.
Logan's fingers were long and clean. He had a very tall and up-straight feature with soft but glowing
hair. His body exudes aristocratic temperament.
"Clara?" Logan said. "It's really you. Nice to meet you."
He reached out his hand and greeted her.
Clara readily shook hands with him and said, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hutchinson."
His voice was full of charm, very pleasant to hear. It was completely unlike Horace's hard and cold
voice.
She replied, "Mr. Hutchinson. Thank you for agreeing to our interview with you.
I'm really sorry for the misunderstanding that we had in the last auction, but I am sure this time that
would not happen again."
When Logan smiled, his eyes would curve like the crescent moon, which looked so cute.
He said, "Darren and I are friends since a long time ago. Of course, I'll support what he does. But I did
not expect that he sent you here."
Since Logan knew Horace, it was natural for him to know Darren, Clara thought to herself.
The Hutchinson family was one of the three big families in Stratmont. The Hutchinson's, the Jakovich's,
and the Kirkland's all had connections with each other. They all had business contacts and they had
supported each other's businesses since the beginning. They had gone through the painstaking efforts
of several generations.
The Hutchinson family's main business was antique, which extended overseas and had a good
reputation in the city. Their ancestors came from scholarly families. They had profound research on
history, and they were also very appealing and influential.
The Kirkland family's influence was in the army, so Horace's veins also exuded a sense of patriarchal
control and dominance, which fitted a soldier's temperament. If Horace hadn't been sitting in a
wheelchair, Clara felt that Horace could have gone directly to the battlefield to fight.
The Jakovich family had always been doing business. They were very powerful in that field.
Before the interview, Clara checked the background of Logan, so she learned something about his
family in recent years.
Logan and Laura were siblings, and their father and mother had long passed away. They depended on
each other for their lives. Logan was a young boy then but he was very mature for his age. He took
care of his sister as well as their family business.
Unfortunately, his only family member died in a fire ten years ago. He must have been extremely
heartbroken at that time.
Now, Logan was the only one left in the family. People said that the Hutchinson family was the end of
its era. It was fading now and could never compare to what it was before.
But Clara thought otherwise. Maybe the Hutchinson family seemed to be going downhill, but Logan
was a wise and capable man, and he would certainly overcome the current difficulties.
This family had gone through a lot but it still had the foundations built by its ancestors.
Clara stopped thinking about it and began the interview.
