Logan finished his words, at this time also did not have much interest, face cold, “you should do all have done, nothing to do so first, when another day the Lees want to do something again, I will contact you.”
“Logan!”
Seeing that he was about to hang up the phone, Cornel hastily shouted to stop his movement.
Logan’s eyebrows sunk slightly, “What else is going on?”
“Are you busy with the company these days?” Cornel spoke with a tentative voice.
“No, I am accompanying Elena.”
Cornel face a happy, immediately after continuing to speak, “Then two more days ……”
The man’s face instantly sank, with a grim, “Cornel, if you want me to go to Yolanda’s funeral do not have to mention it again, about this matter, I also do not want to mention it with you!”
“She’s your sister!”
“She’s not!”
Cornel was dizzy with his obstinacy, “Logan, I have half a foot in hell, can’t you just indulge me for once? Let me be happy, too!”
He has almost taken care of things, but now even want to see him to see a glance is so difficult?
Logan pursed his lips and did not respond.
Cornel took a deep breath, a face of vicissitudes, “count me begging you, still can not? It’s just an appearance, do you still want to wait for people outside to see our joke?”
Logan remained silent, the atmosphere was frozen to the extreme.
“You ……”
Cornel gas knot, in the end, still did not dare to say anything, snapped his mouth shut, “Forget it, this is also your business, do not come even if it ……”
Logan snapped and pinched the phone directly, Cornel froze, in the end just left a sigh.
Elena looked at his ugly face from the side, no need to guess roughly what happened, the end of the conversation between these two, always about Yolanda and Jacqueline ……
“Logan ……” she called out his name in a small voice.
The latter raised his eyes to look at her, only to see her brilliantly raise a smile.
Inexplicably, the depressed mood just now also followed the general dispersal, he lovingly patted the top of her head, “these days at home stay bored?”
“That’s not true.” She shook her head, “It’s also cold these days, so I can’t wait to stay at home.”
“Lazy little girl.” Logan pinched the tip of her nose.
Elena wrinkled her nose and grunted, “You’re the one, you’re the one who’s dragging me home every day, you know, I’m supposed to have a job!”
The little woman’s rhetorical righteousness made him feel funny.
Elena bristled, “Did I say it wrong?”
“No.” Logan stopped laughing and pulled her to sit in his arms, his chest was all warm, Elena nestled in his arms, her whole body followed the warmth.
Logan’s chin rested on her shoulder and he spoke slowly, “When the weather gets better in a few days, we’ll go see Grandma Becky, we’ve been so busy with the company and the Browns that we haven’t gone back to see her this New Year.”
“Yes!” Elena nodded quickly, “Right, the fruits and vegetables she had sent over a while ago are all gone, so we can bring some back this time.”
Grandma Becky had grown them herself, and they were much sweeter and tastier than the outside ones.
Logan lowered his eyes, and the little woman’s face was reflected in the bottom of his eyes, “Greedy cat.”
“What?” Elena glared, “You don’t want to eat? If I bring it back, you can’t eat it all!”
“Yeah.” Logan responded, “I’ll leave it all to you, I’m afraid if I eat it, Grandma Becky will think I’m robbing you of something to eat.”
“How could that be?” Elena lost her smile and couldn’t help but mutter in Grandma Becky’s defense, “Grandma Becky is so reasonable ……”
Logan heard the real thing, thinking about the harmony between her and Grandma Becky, a heart is followed by warmth.
The two of them were interrupted by an unexpected phone call when they were about to speak.
Elena glanced at the phone and bumped the small of his back, “Go get it.”
Logan reluctantly released her slightly and picked up the phone with his free hand, “MoUncle Roger?”
Elena immediately looked up, just to meet the man full of tender eyes in the bottom, suddenly did not know whether to look or not to look good, a small face a scarlet red.
The big hand fell on the top of her head, one by one, gently caressing her soft hair, some love.
“What’s up with Uncle Roger?” Logan said stoically.
“Now?”
Not knowing what the other man had said, Logan looked at the person in his arms with some surprise in his eyes.
Elena blinked her eyes uncertainly, a little confused about the reason.
Soon, Logan had nodded and said, “Okay, see you later.”
Seeing that he had put the phone aside, Elena only spoke in confusion, “What’s wrong?”
“Uncle Roger is going to make a trip to M in a few days, so he’s afraid he won’t be able to meet up for another two days, so let’s go out for dinner.”
“Good.” Elena stretched lazily, “You have nothing to do anyway, so it’s good to go out for a walk.”
Logan looked outside the rainy, can not help but frown, “this weather, you go out I am not sure, the last cold still hurt the bottom, if you catch a cold again ……”
“Afraid of what?” Did not care waved his hand.
She smiled and hugged his arm to remind, “Besides, you are not also on my side? It’s hard not to think that you don’t want to protect me?”
Elena’s words have come to this point, if he does not agree, then it is really not possible to say.
Logan sighed helplessly, and had to respond, “Then go and change, I’ll ask Jacob to prepare the car.”
Elena immediately jumped out of his embrace and made a face at him, but also forgot to complain, “You can’t drive yourself, New Year’s Eve, Jacob also has relatives ah, can’t not accompany the New Year, right?”
“He doesn’t have any family.” Logan’s words caused Elena’s face to freeze.
“What’s going on?” She looked at him, her eyes trembling slightly.
Logan looked at the startled little woman and froze before responding, “What, I didn’t mention it to you?”
She shook her head seriously.
“Jacob is an orphan, so he just stays home during the weekdays when he’s on vacation.” Logan shook his head helplessly, everyone said he was a workaholic, but no one knew that his assistant was the most dedicated and the most crazy about work.
Elena smiled and showed an apology, “Sorry, I didn’t know, that’s why I said that ……”
If she had known, she would not have said that.
Logan immediately rubbed her face and said, “Silly girl, what does this have to do with you, don’t think too much, go change first, otherwise, later Jacob came, I can not wait for you.”
