Elena Bush was probably really tired and fell asleep not long after she went back to her bedroom and lay down. Logan Brown listened to her even breathing and the corners of his lips slowly rose with a smile.
After watching her for a while, he instinctively tried to pull back and cook something to eat, having been so busy negotiating and meeting with the vendors in the afternoon that he hadn’t been able to eat a bite until he returned, and his stomach was now protesting.
When he returned from his shower, the little woman in bed was whimpering helplessly, her little face scrunched into a whimpering sob.
“Elena?”
He patted her cheek to wake her up, but Elena Bush, caught in a dream, was not easily awakened, muttering for a while but failing to respond, and waving her hands wildly in mid-air.
Logan Brown subconsciously tightened his grip on her hand and whispered soothingly, “It’s okay, I’m here.”
“Logan Brown ……” the little man on the bed called out his name unconsciously.
“Hmm?”
“I don’t want to leave you ……”
The man’s movements lurched and he looked over at her, only to see her frowning throughout and not answering whatever she asked.
“Elena?” he repeated calling her name.
In her dream, Elena Bush seemed to respond, curling her lips into a smile, “Logan?”
“Why did you leave me?”
“……”
His grip on her hand kept tightening, not knowing if it was in fear or in Shyness.
The small woman’s frown gradually relaxed, quickly fading to unease as she shook her head and smiled, seemingly responding, “How could I leave you? I will never leave you in my life, not ……”
At those words, the frown that had been locked between her brows only finally relaxed.
Satisfied, Logan Brown lowered his head and dropped a kiss on her forehead, “Good girl, you can’t go back on what you promised me ……”
“I don’t want to go, I won’t go ……”
The little woman’s grip on his hand kept tightening and tightening.
The man shook his head helplessly and slipped under the covers, and Elena Bush immediately burrowed into his arms as if she had a sense of her own, not forgetting to instinctively protect the small of her back.
That little gesture was so cute to Logan Brown’s eyes that he couldn’t bear to let anyone else see his beloved one, let alone let anyone else covet it.
In the darkness of the night, the two of them snuggled up to each other as if they were holding the whole world, a quiet and peaceful beauty ……
The next day, the sunlight scattered in, the European style bed, the quilt slowly burrowed out a small furry head, before revealing the little woman’s delicate face.
The sunlight hit her face through the window, making Elena Bush rub her drowsy eyes and wake up.
The person who had been beside her had got up and left at some point, and there was only the slightly sunken surface of the bed to prove that he had indeed slept beside her last night.
The phone next to her bed lit up with a text message from Cornel Brown, and without looking she guessed what it said, and her face sank at the thought.
“Knock, knock!”
Mia knocked on the door and then pushed in, immediately smiling as she woke up, “I heard a noise upstairs earlier and I guessed it was Madame who was awake, and I was right.”
Elena Bush didn’t move as she put her phone away and smiled as she answered, “Mia?”
“Eh!” Mia answered cheerfully and then admonished, “Wash up and come down for breakfast, I’ve made your favourite fried dumplings.”
“Okay.” She answered, and Mia left the room.
Elena Bush couldn’t help but read the text message again carefully, then took a deep breath, put it away and washed up with no emotion visible on her face.
Mia was urging her to eat and chanting Logan Brown’s orders as she left, all about her, making a hot tear roll down her face for no reason.
“Ma’am, you, what’s wrong with you?” Mia was instantly stunned and rushed to find a tissue.
Elena Bush wiped quickly and squeezed out a smile, “It’s nothing, it’s nothing, I just got sentimental all of a sudden, Mia, you should know this from experience, pregnancy is like that, it’s just inexplicable ……”
Mia knew that, but it didn’t seem right at the moment.
The woman’s face had worry written all over it and Elena Bush panicked and took a sip of milk down to suppress all the unease on her face.
“Ma’am.” Mia called out to her, “Is there something wrong with you? Or is it that you’ve been overwhelmed by the fact that Sir has been busy with the company these past few days and has left you cold?”
“No really.” When she lifted her face again, the little woman’s face once again returned to its usual expression, “Mia you’re the one thinking too much, besides, how could I be angry with him just because of work?”
How could she blame him when he had to take up the slack for her when she was the one who had caused all the trouble?
Mia looked at him carefully for a while and saw that there was nothing else unusual, so she breathed a sigh of relief. ”
Elena Bush’s heart was sore as she listened, but she responded in kind, pretending to be impatient, “Yes, yes, yes, Mia, I’ve heard everything you’ve said all these days, I’ve heard it all by heart.”
Mia laughed and shook her head and nodded helplessly, “Ugh, you just don’t listen.”
“Listen.” Elena Bush had a naive look on her face, “How could I not listen, I listen to everything you say, who made you my most, most beloved Mia.”
“What a sweet little mouth this early in the morning.” Mia was amused by her words.
“By the way, Mia I remember Grandma sent something up the other day, why don’t you take some to Grandpa and go over with the driver?” She said as she bit into her chopsticks.
Mia was a little uneasy about her, “Just have the driver send it straight away.”
“The Brown already has a problem with me, if we go with just the driver, I’m afraid Dad will have to say something again, if you don’t want to, then I can go.” With that, she made a move to put down her chopsticks and get up.
Mia was too busy to hold her back and agreed, “You’re carrying a big belly and running around all day, I’m scared if you don’t take it easy. You, just stay at home honestly.”
“Yes, yes!”
Elena Bush was so sweet, she put her arm around her and said, “Mia loves me the most.”
“Silly boy.” Mia rubbed the top of her head lovingly before releasing her to go and get ready.
As she watched Mia leave the villa, Elena Bush unhurriedly dialed Edward Ford’s number and said, “Mr Ford, if you have time, let’s meet up.”
