Elena Bush gently stroked her bulging belly, her gaze soft, “You don’t need to get angry with him, if there’s anything, just tell me all about it.”
She knew and understood that he said he didn’t care, but in his heart he still did.
Logan Brown paused and turned around to sit back down on the bed, his tone calm, “Let’s eat something first.”
“You ……” Elena Bush’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, “You’re not ……”
The man looked at her in the same way, unable to hide the helplessness in his eyes, “Do you think that I could be angry with you?”
Even if he was angry, it was only with himself.
He was the one who had exposed her to danger, and it was his fault that he had never been able to give her a peaceful life.
Elena Bush lowered her eyes, it wasn’t as if she didn’t know what he was thinking, but it was because she did that she ……
She raised her eyes and was about to speak when Logan Brown lifted his hand to her lips, his eyes doting, “Jeff should have ordered the kitchen, go wash up first or it will get cold when the food is delivered.”
Elena Bush blinked her eyes, unable to resist him, and complied.
The meal was a quiet one.
Logan Brown fed her before moving his own chopsticks, the little woman’s eyes falling on him with a slight hesitation.
The latter only pretended not to see anything, burying his head in his food before putting down his chopsticks and speaking, “I’ll take you home later after I’ve taken you home, you’re not feeling well, so you should stay home more to recuperate.”
“What about you?”
“I’m going to the office, Uncle Roger has something going on these days.”
Elena Bush looked at him and speculated belatedly, “Is it …… Uncle Roger something or is it between you and Edward Ford ……”
The motion of gathering the dishes gave a noticeable lurch before it was quickly withdrawn, a smile on her face, “You’re under so much pressure these days, the most important thing is to look after our children, as for the rest, you just leave it to me.”
She held his hand anxiously, trembling slightly, “But I’m worried about you too!”
“Worried about what?” Logan Brown looked relieved, “Are you afraid I won’t be able to solve anything else, or that I’ll lose?”
“I ……”
Elena Bush bit her lip, she was afraid of both, either way, the ending she was afraid ……
And what she was more afraid of was that something would happen to him.
Edward Ford’s unknown side that she had unintentionally bumped through had made her even more uneasy, and on the other hand, her heart was even more vaguely wary of Edward Ford, she just felt …… that this man was too scary, too scary to see through, and what she feared most, was to cross paths with him!
Looking at her confused look, Logan Brown couldn’t help but smile, his large hand clasping her small one tighter, “It’s okay, all of this is in my plan and I can set it right just the same.”
“Really?” She was uneasy.
Logan Brown nodded, “Of course.”
She met the look of determination in his eyes, as if the unease had been dispelled, and a smile forced itself onto her face, “Yeah.”
Within minutes, Jeff had completed the discharge formalities.
Logan Brown took him straight back to the villa and then went straight to the office.
Mia watched Elena Bush return, her heart hanging in mid-air, “Are you all right, madam?”
She didn’t know, but when she had arrived this morning, she had almost fainted from shock at the news.
Elena Bush is a pregnant woman and she can’t afford to be the least bit frightened.
When she saw Mia’s anxious face, Elena Bush said, “It’s nothing, it’s just a little thing, look, I’m fine now, right?”
Mia looked fine, but when she thought that she was fine when she left yesterday, she didn’t know that something had happened, so she gave her a sorrowful look and went straight to her room to lie down on the bed, “No matter what happens, madam, you have to rest and not think about anything, do you understand?”
“Mia ……”
Elena Bush cried, “I’m really fine.”
“That’s not okay either.” Mia shook her head stubbornly, “You’re going to have to lie down for me no matter what, I’m going to go to the market and have a fresh old hen killed to make you a stew to keep you calm!”
“No need ……”
Elena Bush was about to say something when Mia stopped her from getting up and tucked her in, “You need to take care of yourself whether you want to or not, look at how much weight you’ve lost in one night.”
Elena Bush’s face was full of helplessness and she couldn’t help but say in her heart, “It’s not that exaggerated.
But it was all in her mind, and since Mia was so nervous about her, she couldn’t help but listen to her.
When Mia saw that she was fine with it, she gave her a few more instructions to get some rest, and only when Elena Bush said yes again and again did she let her go.
Only, no sooner had Mia left than a call came in from Cornel Brown, whom Elena Bush had not blacklisted since the last time they had met.
As soon as he picked up, Cornel Brown’s irritated voice came through the receiver, “Elena Bush, didn’t you say you’d be fine? Didn’t you say you’d handle it? But now Edward Ford is coming to the door himself later to talk about the takeover, and you ……”
Elena Bush immediately tightened her brow, “How can it be that soon, he shouldn’t have the capital to negotiate right now ……”
“Whether he does or not, the word is out there and I’m telling you, if the Browns don’t make it through this, it’s all your fault! Elena Bush, and I’m kind enough to remind you ……”
“Bastard!”
Cornel Brown had barely finished his sentence when he was immediately cut off by a mid-range roar.
Elena Bush could clearly hear the old man on the other side of the phone, counting off Cornel Brown’s lack of understanding and then quickly grabbing his phone and saying softly to Elena Bush, “Elena, don’t listen to Cornel Brown and don’t take his words to heart. ”
“It’s just that Edward Ford isn’t ……”
“Don’t worry.” The senior reassured, “Logan will be here later too, so there’s nothing to worry about.”
Elena Bush fell silent, thinking about what Logan Brown had said earlier, he said it was something about the company, but now it seemed that he did deliberately hide Edward Ford from her, I guess …… he didn’t want her to feel guilty if she found out.
The old man didn’t know what she was thinking and continued, “In any case, this has nothing to do with you, so don’t think too much about it, okay?”
Elena Bush’s heart was filled with mixed feelings, she couldn’t tell what she really felt, but in the end she just nodded reluctantly and answered, “Grandpa, I understand.”
