The three of them had not been delayed in G for very long, except perhaps that with the extra Harvey, the little one was extraordinarily fit and tired of them all.
Finally, it was only at the urging of George Brown that they got on the plane back to H City.
Jacob had led George Brown here, and Harvey saw an old man with a cane from a distance and immediately broke free of Logan Brown’s hand and darted over at a trot.
“Great-Grandpa!”
The little one’s voice was crisp and sweet.
George Brown’s heart softened at the cry and he opened his arms to embrace him.
Harvey rubbed himself against him, and his little face immediately lifted into a smile, “Great-Grandpa, Harvey missed you so much, why didn’t you come with us to G this time?”
“Good boy.” The old man rubbed the top of his head and said helplessly, “I can’t stand it any longer, my bones are too old.”
“Nonsense, Grandpa isn’t old, I have to play Tai Chi with him too!”
Harvey’s little mouth was as sweet as honey, and he made a few punches, which made the old man’s eyes narrow with laughter.
“Harvey,” Elena Bush’s beautiful voice dropped, which made the little man withdraw his playfulness and turn around and jump into her arms.
Elena Bush picked him up and whispered, “How can you toss Great-Grandpa like that? What if you make Great-Grandpa fall?”
“Oooh ……” Harvey pouted, admitting his mistake and turning to the old man, “Great-Grandpa, are you all right? It was Harvey who was reckless.”
“No, I’m not.” The old man was in a great mood at the sight of his little grandson and didn’t care about any of this. As far as he was concerned, it didn’t matter if he fell over in order to hold the little one.
Jacob looked at a few people and gently reminded them, “Master, sir, madam, it’s better to get in the car first.”
“Hmm.” Elena Bush nodded.
Logan Brown helped the old man into the car before escorting Elena Bush and Harvey, a thoughtful gesture that made her heart feel warm.
On the way, the old man and Harvey had a great time. When they got back to the cottage, Harvey dragged him straight to his room. The old man was so happy to do this that he didn’t even hear Logan Brown’s words of advice.
Elena Bush took him by the hand and said, “Never mind, you know how much Grandpa and Harvey like to get along like this.
“I’m afraid he’s still going strong at this age.”
“No, Grandpa’s still fit, don’t be ridiculous!” Elena Bush scolded.
Logan Brown nodded in agreement, “You’re right, he’s healthy, he’s fine, okay?”
Elena Bush nudged him and stopped talking.
Jacob stood beside them at some point and said, “Sir, someone contacted you and your wife during your absence.”
The man stared, “Who?”
Elena Bush followed suit, curious, wondering who was looking for her and Logan Brown at this time of day.
“This …….”
Jacob shook his head seriously, “The other man didn’t explicitly say, it just struck me as somewhat familiar, so I told you guys.”
If a stranger, there was no need for a briefing.
“Then give me the number and I’ll be in touch later.” Elena Bush said, flipping out her phone.
Jacob, however, shook his head again, “About that, the man said after he found out Mr. and Mrs. had gone to G city that he would come to visit the house when you guys got back.”
“Who?” Elena Bush subconsciously looked over at Logan Brown, her small hands tugging at his sleeves, “Can you guess?”
The man hooked his lips and smiled, “Mostly I already have the answer, I just have to wait to see it before I can be sure.”
“Really!?”
“Mmm.”
Elena Bush was a little impatient and her eyes were straight up starry-eyed, “So tell me who? I can’t think of anyone.”
But the more her couldn’t think of, the more depressed her became, as if her was being kept in suspense.
Logan Brown turned his eyes to look at the anxious little woman, and deliberately teased her by saying, “Can’t you guess?”
“If I could have guessed it I wouldn’t have needed to ask you.” The little woman looked disgruntled.
The latter only squeezed her palm, not explicitly saying, “You will know when the person appears, won’t you? Think carefully about your surroundings, who has disappeared for a long time and hasn’t contacted you for a long time, this will naturally give you the answer.”
“You ……”
Elena Bush was stunned and didn’t know what had suddenly occurred to her, grinning up with delight, “You mean to say that he’s back?”
“Not sure yet, and don’t be too happy about it.”
“Mmmmmm!”
She nodded repeatedly, but the coolness of the trembling fingertips betrayed the nervousness and anticipation she felt at the moment.
As Logan Brown watched her, the corners of his lips slowly lifted in a nice curve.
A few days later, in the office of the KL building.
Jacob knocked on the door and pushed straight in, “Sir, the gentleman from the real estate industry that we arranged today will meet later at the Jiangnan Café to discuss the next project and the land he has in hand.”
“Willing to meet?” The man looked up from his quarterly statement, the pen under his hand following suit.
Jacob nodded, “This one has always been secretive, matters have always been left to his right hand man Blanche Rodriguez, who has never shown up, this time it seems he has taken it upon himself to mention he wants to see Sir.”
“It’s not easy to rise to the top in just three years, then again ……”
Logan Brown propped his hands on his chin, vaguely guessing what was going on, a flash of sharpness as he raised his eyes again, “Make the arrangements, I’m going out, I’ll go straight to the gentleman’s later.”
“Where is the gentleman going?” Jacob entered as he followed, ascertaining his itinerary.
The man paused and gave a smile, “To fetch Madame.”
“At this hour?” Jacob was a little taken aback.
Logan Brown had always been a public and private man, and it was almost time for his appointment, so perhaps he would be late if he went to pick up Elena Bush. If he was really late, I’m sure he would also give the other party a bad impression, and he was worried ……
In the face of his concern, Logan Brown was unperturbed and patted him on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, you go ahead and I’ll be there on time afterwards.”
Jacob listened and understood, and did not ask any more questions, “Then take care on the road, sir.”
“Yeah.”
Logan Brown answered and left in a big way.
Meanwhile, Elena Bush had taken Logan Brown’s call and had to leave Harvey at home with Mia to look after him.
She had only just stepped out of the cottage when the man’s car pulled up steadily in front of her ……
