Chapter 276 Think Better of Him
Chapter 276 Think Better of Him
“I don’t need his love.” What kind of love was that? Only the one who was obedient to him would get his approval and affection.
That was ridiculous.
Yolanda opened her mouth. What Logan had said was unbelievable to her. In her mind, Logan would never say that. And he was more and more different with the one she knew.
Being quiet, Elena held Logan’s hand tightly, “We should go. Aren’t you going to meet Roger? It’s late.”
“Okay.”
“Elena!” Yolanda shouted out hurriedly, “Aren't you afraid that you’ll ruin him?”
Elena blinked her eyes and did not know what Yolanda meant at first. But then she realized Yolanda was referring to Logan. She smiled broadly, “Then it’s not up to you.”
Yolanda blushed as she was angered by Elena’s indifference. “You are so arrogant just because you’re Logan’s wife. If it weren’t him, do you think you really have the right to be haughty in front of me?”
“You’re right.”
Elena replied bluntly, “I never say I have nothing to do with him. I’m his wife. And it’s reasonable that he would try to protect me. Are you feeling jealous of me?”
“Are you out of your mind? Why would I be jealous?”
“Well, then I’m wrong. I wonder maybe you are being disgruntled because you don’t have a boyfriend and you are not the spoiled child in the Browns.”
“Elena! What are you saying?”
Yolanda rounded her eyes, as if she wanted to eat Elena alive.
Elena gave her a smile, “Nothing. We have some urgent business to attend to, so we need to go.”
Yolanda still wanted to say something. But George grabbed her hand with a scowl, which stopped her, “Grandpa…”
“Logan, you may go now.”
“OK.”
Logan nodded his head, “Jacob, bring in the supplements we bought for George, then we don’t need to come to send the supplements next time.”
Jacob nodded and went out to take the stuff.
Yolanda also left in anger. George looked at the upstairs and then stared at Logan, saying in an undertone, “Logan, I know what you’ve done recently, and I know you must have done these for some reasons…”
“Grandpa, you’re overthinking it.” Logan denied with a smile, “All I want to do is to expand the business of KL. It’s not that complicated.”
George gazed at him for a while, then he said with a sigh, “OK, then. Have it your own way.”
After they left the Brown's Villa, Logan squeezed Elena’s hand and said, “I drive you home at first. Then I’ll go home after I come to meet Roger.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
“Okay.” Nodding, Elena knew he would spend much time talking with Roger when they saw each other, especially about his legs.
When Logan came to Roger, Roger looked at him with guilt in his eyes. Logan observed his look and then said, “Roger, you still think that the operation failed was because of you?”
Roger did not have any response. But there was something in his eyes showing that Logan was right.
“Jacob, go out. And do not let anybody come in.” Logan said in a cold voice.
Following Logan’s order, Jacob walked out and closed the door.
Roger was bewildered, “What are you doing?”
“Roger, I want you to pretend that you never see what you’re going to see. And do not even mention it in front of anyone…” Logan said with his deep eyes.
Roger was still puzzled. Then Logan stood up and pushed away his wheelchair.
“Logan!”
Roger was so shocked and excited that he almost fell from his chair, “That’s unbelievable! When do you recover?”
“The first operation did not fail. It was a successful operation. But I lied to you.”
Roger asked with sharp eyes, “You keep it secret from the Browns on purpose?”
“To some extent, yes. But it is over now. All have been settled.” Logan said casually, as if he was talking about today’s weather.
Roger’s heart jolted, “Is there anything I don’t know? What happened to you recently? What you’ve done attracts considerable attention in H City.”
“Nothing, it’s all over.”
“Is it because it’s too complicated, or because I can’t know?”
Logan gave him a smile, but he did not answer. Then he asked, “That’s not important. I just want to ask you, have you met Joanna Lake?”
“Joanna?”
Frowning, Roger seemed recalling, “Isn’t she Elena’s mother? Why do you mention her abruptly?”
Logan was surprised. But then he hid his feeling before Roger knew it, “Nothing, I suddenly think of her and want to ask you.”
Roger looked at him with suspicion. But Logan was quite self-possessed as if he had not asked Roger that question.
“Logan, I don’t know what had happened to you these days. But I want to tell you, no matter what happens, I will always stand by your side.” He patted Logan’s shoulder and repeated the words he had said to Logan countless times.
Logan’s lips compressed into a thin line. He kept that in mind, then he raised his head and asked Roger again, “Are you familiar with Edward?”
“Yes, we are good friends for decades. We know everything about each other. That’s also the reason why I want to introduce him to you.”
Logan said with a scowl, “Everything?”
“Yeah!”
Roger answered briskly, which made Logan frown deeply.
Roger looked at his face and then asked, “What happened? Is there something wrong with Edward? But he doesn’t tell me.”
“No.” Logan shook his head and said with indifference, “I terminated the agreement. The Fords thought something went wrong.”
Hearing that, Roger was more confused, “What’s the matter? Logan, is there anything that you don’t want to talk? You can tell me everything. And I wish you can trust me whole-heartedly.”
“Uncle Roger.”
Logan interrupted his word, “No, I terminated the agreement because we couldn’t reach a consensus. It’s my problem. The Ford Group has nothing to do with that.”
“Impossible! You’re not the one who tend to go back on your word. You’ll never sign the contract with them and then suddenly change your mind.”
Roger stood up in excitement. But Logan suddenly gave him a smile and shook his head, “You’ve thought better of me. There is one reason. My wife was abducted by Kent several days ago. I did these because I didn’t want to have any connections with him.”
