The next day, as a surprise, Elena was about to cook for Logan again. Before she started, Mia came back with some ready food and soup. She put them on the table and said, “I bet you didn’t eat well these days. Here is some food for you. Come and have a try!”
“Mia, don’t worry! Logan can cook, and he cooks so well!” Elena said in an admiring tone!
Thanks to Logan, both of them were saved from starving these days when Mia was away and couldn’t cook for them.
After hearing this, Mia was so surprised, “He can cook?!”
“You don’t know?”
Mia shook her head, “I’ve never seen him cooking. I don’t know!”
Elena was stunned. He was good at hiding his secrets.
Mia didn’t stay for long since she needed to go back home to take care of her family. She left before Logan woke up. Elena deliberately showed the food to him, “Look, I made it!”
Logan looked at her with doubt. After taking a sip of the soup, he asked, “When did Mia come back?”
“How do you know!?”
He retorted, “Do you think you can lie to me successfully?”
Mia had cooked for him for nearly 20 years. How couldn’t he know about it?
Elena was unhappy, “You always got me. Are you trying to show off your intelligence?!”
“You can learn more from Mia. If you make improvements, I will praise you.”
She rolled her eyes immediately. Realizing that she indeed wasn’t good at cooking, she felt more depressed.
After breakfast, Logan suddenly mentioned, “Isn’t Sophia still looking for a job?”
“Yeah. She has sent her resume to dozens of companies but none of them replied. Why do you ask? Do you want to hire her?”
“No, but a friend of mine wants to. I wonder if Sophia is willing to have a try.”
Elena seemed to know “the friend”, and blurted out, “Is the friend Zach?”
Logan raised his brows. His expression told her that she was right.
She bit her lip, thinking for a while. And she said, “Well, I don’t think Sophia is willing to work for him. What’s more, Zach’s work is about investigation. I don’t think Sophia can help him with that, either. Or he is running new business…”
“He needs a housekeeper.”
Elena glanced at him, “You said that you wouldn’t help, right? What are you doing now?”
“I did. But I owe him this time and I get to repay him. I am afraid he can’t focus on his work if I don’t help him.” Logan said calmly.
Elena didn’t know their deal, so she felt even more confused. “How come you owed him? What did you do to him? Why don’t I know?”
Logan patted her head gently, “There are too many things you don’t know. Don’t worry about it. You will know when it’s time.”
He said that again.
Elena felt unhappy. But she could do nothing if Logan didn’t want to talk about it.
So, she decided to ask Zach herself and tricked him to tell her everything. She called Zach while Logan was talking with Jacob on the phone in the study.
“Elena?”
“Did Logan owe you something?” She didn’t beat about the bush.
Zach didn’t understand what she meant and asked, “Elena, what are you talking about?”
