At this moment, Roger Scott was furious and went straight to the Browns. The Browns’ servants saw the car parked in front of the main gate from a great distance, and then one person stepped out of the car quickly.
The servants, who had been at the Browns for over ten years, recognised the man as Roger Scott and the housekeeper, who was repairing a potted plant in the yard, threw down his shears and rushed to meet him.
“Mr Scott.” The butler stood respectfully in front of him and stopped him in his tracks.
He stood in front of him, inexplicably terrified, remembering that the last time Roger Scott had appeared in the Browns’ yard in such an imposing manner was some twenty years ago, when Logan Brown’s mother was still alive.
“Where’s Cornel Brown!?” Roger Scott had no time to deal with him and opened the door.
“He, he ……”
“Where’s he gone?”
Faced with the stammering words of the butler, the fire in Roger Scott’s heart burned even hotter, “Butler, you and I have known each other for many years, you should know my temper!”
“Yes, yes …… but you are making me really afraid to say anything.”
“Is that so?” Roger Scott sneered and brushed him off without even thinking, “In that case, I won’t impose, I’ll find out for myself!”
“Wait, wait!”
The butler reacted, but saw that Roger Scott had already crossed him in stride, causing him to panic, and hastily called for the servants to stop him.
But while he was still giving orders, Roger Scott had already entered the main house.
“Cornel Brown, Cornel Brown!”
Roger Scott rushed in and went straight to the living room shouting from the house, and his voice kept swirling around the empty room.
The butler hurried in after him, “Mr Scott, you’re making a lot of noise at the Browns and everyone is embarrassed.”
Roger Scott gave him a sidelong glance, his face indifferent, “Ugly? Is it as ugly as what Cornel Brown did?”
“Mr Scott, you, what do you mean by that?” The butler was a little confused.
Roger Scott wasn’t going to explain to him, he just said in a seriously voice, “Whatever, I just need to know where Cornel Brown is, it’s our business and we’ll have to sort it out ourselves.”
“But you’re so reckless about finding him, and I can’t ……”
“Fine, I won’t argue with you, I’ll reason with you, go and get Cornel Brown out for me and tell him I’m here for him.” Roger Scott threw up his hands in an air of surrender.
When the steward saw this, he didn’t know what to do with himself.
Roger Scott looked at him, his face slightly displeased, “What, no?”
“No.” The butler immediately shook his head.
Roger Scott raised his eyebrows, “If it’s nothing, then why won’t you call Cornel Brown out!”
“Mr Scott, don’t give me a hard time, I’m just a little servant.” The butler looked as if he wanted to cry.
As he spoke, a deep, steady voice came, “What’s going on?”
“George Brown ……” Roger Scott looked over, his face a few shades more respectful.
The butler followed suit and bowed his head slightly, apologising slightly, “Sorry Master Brown, for disturbing your rest, but I’ve asked Mr Scott ……”
“It’s all right, go down and make some tea and bring it over, I’ll just talk to him.” George Brown interrupted with a timely lift of his hand.
The butler glanced around, but in the end he obeyed and retreated.
Roger Scott looked a little better at the sight of George Brown, who sat down slowly in front of him with a smile on his cane, “Roger, we haven’t seen each other for many years, have we?”
Roger Scott nodded and shook his head, “Still see each other, just not many greetings.”
“Yeah ……” George Brown seemed to be reminiscing, “Logan and his mother had no one to rely on back then and it was thanks to you that you looked after them for a while or two… …”
Roger Scott didn’t move and clenched his fists, “George Brown, I didn’t come here today to talk about the past.”
“I know.” George Brown smiled, “It’s just a sudden feeling, don’t take it too much to heart, besides, I don’t want to bring up the past, lest I hurt the peace.”
After saying that, the next second, his face immediately became serious, “In that case, what is the reason for your coming here today?”
Roger Scott gave some face to George Brown’s status and seniority, so he responded in a calm and gentle manner when he asked, “George Brown, you asked, and I’ll say it straight, I came here today to find out about Elena.”
“Elena?”
“Right!” Roger Scott could barely contain his anger at the mention of the incident, “I heard all about what happened between Elena and Logan, and for what it’s worth, what Cornel Brown did was simply outrageous, and not even worthy of being an elder!”
George Brown froze, and it was then that he understood the reason for his arrival.
“Roger, I know what you mean, you’re just blaming Cornel for not taking charge and for throwing all the pressure on Elena ……” he said with a look of regret and unspeakable pain, “You think I’m not angry? But one of them is in the palm of my hand and the other is on the back of my hand, and I can’t let go of either one ……”
“Can’t let go?”
Roger Scott took a deep breath, “Is that why you can stand by and watch Elena make all these sacrifices for you? Shouldn’t you all know better than anyone that that’s the woman Logan loves, the woman he holds close to his heart, and you?”
Instead of valuing her, they are now sacrificing her to keep the Brown Group!
And what the hell is Elena Bush to them?
George Brown’s face turned blue at Roger Scott’s comment, and he knew he was in the wrong, so he couldn’t say a word.
Roger Scott squeezed his hand tightly, “George Brown, I know you are good to Elena and your heart for her is true, but I just want to ask clearly, who is he, Cornel Brown, to put all this down to a woman!”
“Roger, I know you’re angry because you feel bad for them, it’s just that now it’s all happened and besides, we didn’t stop Logan from going and bringing Elena back ……”
“George Brown, since you understand all that, then you should know how I feel at this point, I’m just pissed off!”
Why should Elena Bush have to go through all this? So what if Edward Ford was coming for her? That only means Edward Ford is sick, not Elena Bush!
She was just an ordinary, pregnant woman, and when something happened, they as men should have stood in front of her and sheltered her and given them a piece of peace for mother and child, not …… not pushed her away with their own hands!
