“Wow!”
As if sensing that he was leaving his loved ones, the originally peaceful baby suddenly burst into tears.
Inexplicably, Logan Brown’s heart ached, and he immediately turned around and walked back, “What’s wrong?”
“I don’t know.” Jeff looked confused, “He’s hungry, is he? I’ll go make some milk powder, you can coax him.”
With that, a stream of it was tucked into his arms and he went off to rummage through the baby’s bottles to clean them himself.
Surprisingly, the baby was quiet as soon as he was in Logan Brown’s arms.
The corner of Jeff’s mouth twitched and he stopped moving immediately, “This little brat isn’t disgusting me, is he?”
“How come?”
The man chuckled lowly, dropping his head and rubbing his nose against his, “Be a good boy and follow your Uncle Jeff back, Daddy will take Mommy back to see you soon, okay?”
The little one’s eyes were closed and he looked like he was sleeping soundly, not paying any attention to him.
Jeff didn’t know what to do now, he was in a dilemma.
Logan Brown glanced at Edward Ford, who was sitting quietly on the sofa, and clenched his teeth wordlessly.
“Send it away!” He said coldly.
“But ……”
“No buts!” Logan Brown spoke firmly, “If he’s crying you just let him cry, he’ll stop when he’s tired of crying.”
Jeff cried out, “Are you sure you’re the real dad?”
The man carefully handed him the baby again, “I’m just trying to protect him, he’ll probably encounter more if he stays here.”
Back in H City, at least there would be peace.
Jeff saw that the reluctance in his brow could not be wiped away, and was also ruthless, but he also knew that Logan Brown had always said what he would do, and he had no other choice ……
Edward Ford opened his eyes, which had always been closed, after they had left, “You don’t have to send him away, he’s just as safe here.”
“But Elena was taken from under your nose too, wasn’t she?” The man’s tone was even, but it poked him right in the gut.
Edward Ford had a flash of embarrassment and Logan Brown smiled, “Relax, I was only joking.”
“Hmph!” Edward Ford waved off the scowl before speaking immediately afterwards, “Jacqueline contacted you, didn’t she?”
It sounded like a question, but it was also a confirmation that he couldn’t deny.
Only, he wasn’t going to hide it either.
With only a slight raised eyebrow, he responded, “Yes, told me to be in the eastern suburbs at eight tonight.”
“Elena’s there?” Edward Ford immediately tensed up.
Logan Brown shook his head, “I don’t know, maybe there, maybe not.”
“I’ll arrange for someone to turn the eastern suburbs upside down right now! If the people are there, they’ll find them!” Edward Ford said, about to dial the phone immediately.
Seeing this, the man moved forward quickly and snatched the phone from him, his face grim.
He raised his face and met the surprised eyes with an angry scolding, “You’ll only spook the snake! Besides, I won’t let you do that.”
That would be gambling with Elena’s life, and he wasn’t brave enough to do that, nor did he intend to.
Edward Ford looked at the momentarily imposing man and the muscles in his face twitched, “How will we find Elena if we don’t!”
What would happen if you did that and Jacqueline found out? You’ll find Elena, but all you’ll find is a corpse!
Edward Ford’s whole body shook as he remembered that Elena’s life was now in Jacqueline’s hands.
Resentment and humiliation spread through his mind, “So, you’re saying that we have to sit and wait?”
“Let’s go to the appointment first.” Logan Brown rose and straightened his cufflinks and collar, “As for what Jacqueline is trying to do, that will come naturally when we meet her.”
“Then I’ll go with you!”
“No need.”
Edward Ford took two anxious steps forward to catch up with him, “It’s too dangerous for you to go alone, and besides, I don’t trust you to bring her back alone!”
Bring her back?
Logan Brown almost wanted to laugh, he would have been grateful if Jacqueline had let him see Elena Bush so easily, but that was just a fantasy.
He knew Jacqueline, and she wasn’t so quick to reveal her cards, let alone make them public!
Edward Ford looked a little annoyed at his appearance, “What are you smiling at?”
“Nothing.” Logan Brown collected his face, “Just assist Zach Stone here, as for the rest, if you have a way to find out where Mason Bush and Emma Bush are now that would be best.”
“I can get Jacob to help you guys!” He said matter-of-factly.
Logan Brown gave a beat and nodded slightly, “If that’s the case, then naturally that would be best.”
“I’ll contact him now!” Edward Ford said, looking over at him.
Logan Brown shrugged and gave his phone back.
Watching him dial the phone, Logan Brown spoke kindly, “Edward Ford, we’re working together now, and I’m suspending all fighting between KL and the Ford Group, and likewise I hope you can call a truce for a while.”
“Yes, I promise you that.” Edward Ford responded readily.
He had been prepared when he came to him and was afraid that Logan Brown would take the opportunity to make demands on him about Elena Bush.
But it turned out he hadn’t, so naturally he wouldn’t be stupid enough to go against him at this point.
As a matter of urgency, all their focus should naturally be on Elena Bush.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
“Coming coming!”
Zach Stone opened the door anxiously, quite upset when the sweetness between him and Sophia Mckinley was interrupted, only to be weakened the moment he pulled it open and saw Logan Brown’s face.
He grinned, “What’s the matter, is there a situation?”
“No.” Logan Brown looked at him, and the rest of his eyes swept back to Edward Ford.
Zach Stone then realised that someone had arrived at some point and walked out of the room a little puzzled wondering, “When did he get here?”
That said, Logan Brown would even let him in?
“Just got here a little while ago.” Logan Brown patted him on the chest, “He’ll be working with us over the next few days to find Elena while you look for clues together, and Jacob will be coming over later.”
“What!?”
Zach Stone almost thought he was hearing things, and couldn’t help but exclaim, his whole body jumping up and down with him.
Logan Brown looked at him silently and then, at his dubious reaction, nodded his head in confirmation.
“……”
Zach Stone immediately burst into tears, grumbling as he cried, “You say you, I’d be more than happy to let Jacob come, but you let a guy turn ……”
As the words were being said, Edward Ford’s sharp eyes had been cast over, stopping his words in their tracks.
