A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 339

She took her seat across from Asuka, who did a double-take upon spotting Logan.

"Whoa, who's this little charmer?" Asuka flipped her gaze between Matilda and Logan with playful suspicion. "Don't tell me he's yours..."

"I'm Logan, my mom's knight in shining armor," Logan declared with a beaming smile. His features were delicate and charming as he greeted Asuka, "Nice to meet you, Asuka!"

"How could there be such a gorgeous kid!"

Asuka, either used to or ignoring Logan's introduction, turned to Matilda in awe, "Oh my God, your son is adorable!"

Matilda offered a modest smile and called over a waiter to order a hot cocoa for Logan before thanking Asuka for the compliment.

"Sorry I'm late, folks..."

Their conversation was interrupted by a new voice. Matilda froze for a second upon seeing the man approaching them; his face was eerily familiar...

Remarkably similar to her best friend Criss...

Eugene approached with a friendly grin, "Pleased to meet you, Ms. Thompson. I'm Eugene, the managing editor at Cosmo. Asuka told me about you, and I thought it'd be great to meet..."

Matilda managed to suppress her surprise, responding courteously, "Pleasure to meet you, sir."
