Chapter279 Suspicion
Suspicion
Elena thought Logan was planning something when she heard that. Then she got close to him and squeezed his shoulder. She felt a bit pity for Zach, “He didn’t do anything. Why are you teasing him?”
“He must come here for some reasons.” Logan gazed at her as if he had seen through her.
Elena met his gaze without flinching. “What reasons? It’s not a big deal that he came to me, or…”
Elena sat on his legs and leaned herself against him, “you think I’m the kind of woman who would abandon her husband and find a new one? Or, you begin to lose confidence in yourself?”
Logan held her tightly and then encircled her waist with his arms, “You know what I mean.”
“No, I don’t.” Elena blinked her eyes innocently.
Elena opened her mouth and wanted to say something. But the man suddenly stood up and scooped her up.
“Jacob, you may come home now. Send Zach the detailed list tonight.” Logan turned his back to Jacob and spoke, then he strode upstairs holding her in his arms.
Elena’s heart was thumping. “What do you want to do?”
A dazzling smile lifted on his lips, “I think Mrs. Brown knows what I want to do.”
Logan threw a faint smile, which made Elena more nervous. “Why, why would I know?”
Elena blushed and then looked at him in bewilderment. His arm was draped around her waist, stroking, “What? You’re not going to tell me all about that?”
“What do you want me to tell you?” Elena still seemed quite innocent.
Logan’s heart did a flip, then he said, “I’m so close to be fooled by you.”
Hearing that, she felt wronged by his allegations, so she held his waist and said, “I did not lie. I haven’t done anything. You can’t set me up.”
“You think I’ll believe that? Why would Zach come here suddenly? He is so obsessive with Sophia that he doesn’t even want to leave her for one second.” He nipped her cheeks. Apparently, he did not believe her.
“But Sophia has gone to work, so they have to be apart.”
“When?”
Frowning, Logan could not think of that.
Elena was annoyed, “You’ve already forgotten it. And you even dare to accuse me of fibbing!”
Logan felt his anger dissipated after he saw her look, “So I am wrong indeed?”
Elena was a bit guilty when she met his piercing eyes, so she said in a low tone, “Now you’ve known that, get up.”
“No.”
“Don’t be like a child.” She complained.
“What?”
He sounded a bit upset, “Don’t you miss me?”

Zach arrived at Sophia’s company, and he had been waiting downstairs for a long time. He had texted Sophia, so she stood up immediately and packed up her stuff when she was off duty. Then she spoke to her colleagues, “I go first, see you!”
Then she skipped to the elevator. But Charlie happened to walk out his office and looked around, “Where’s Sophia?”
A colleague replied kindly, “She just left here. Maybe her boyfriend has come to pick her up.”
Charlie sighed covertly and went out to catch Sophia.
He caught a glimpse of her when he walked to the door of the building. “Sophia!”
Sophia paused and turned around. Then she saw Charlie, “Charlie, what’s the matter?”
“You’re too careless to take this document. Take it with you and memorize it tonight. It’s used for tomorrow’s meeting.” Charlie knocked her head with the paper and then gave the document to her.
“Sorry, I forgot that!” Sophia said with a smile.
Charlie grinned, “Luckily, you haven’t gone too far. Otherwise, I could not catch you.”
Sophia rubbed at the back of her head, “Well, thanks for your help.” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Nothing. That’s it. You can go now. I’ve heard that your boyfriend has come to collect you.” He nudged her head when he saw her look.
Sophia kept nodding. Then she held the paper to her arms and walked away. But she bumped into someone and knocked her head. She lifted her head and found Zach was standing in front of her.
“Zach!” She held his arm happily.
Zach scowled, gnashing his teeth.
Sophia was bewildered, “Why don’t you speak? You look terrible. Are you not feeling well?”
Zach grabbed her hand without saying anything. Then he flicked a glare at Charlie standing behind her and took her to the car.
He slammed the door. Sophia did not know why he was angered suddenly, “Zach, what’s the matter?”
Sophia could not resist worrying about him and then stretched her head to touch his forehead. But he did not seem to have a fever.
Before she took her hand back, Zach gripped her hand again with a scowl, “What were you doing with Charlie Wilson?”
“What?”
Sophia stared at him for a moment, with her eyes blinking. Then she knew why he got angry abruptly – he was being jealous!
“Zach! What’s wrong with you?” Sophia punched him on his chest, “What are you thinking? Charlie came to give me the document.”
Zach was still angry. And he looked like he was about to eat her alive, which made her shudder.
