“Logan, watch your tone. Anyway, you should show respect to me!” Mrs. Wilson was irritated by his attitude, but she had to compose herself, trying to say in a calm tone, clenching her fist tightly.
Logan was not afraid of her, saying in an indifferent tone, “Mrs. Wilson, I am afraid that you are the one who should watch your tone. If you are reluctant to apologize to us, you don’t have to make this call. I think we are done now. I don’t want to waste my time to hear your nonsense.”
“Wait a minute!”
“Yes?”
“Our conversation isn’t finished yet!” Mrs. Wilson gritted her teeth in fury, “Ok, let’s get this straight; what do you want to leave my son alone?”
Logan frowned, “James Wilson?”
“Yes!” Mrs. Wilson didn’t know why he pretended not to know about it, so she asked him, “Don’t you know that? My son was caught by the police, being accused of taking drugs. You did it, didn't you?”
Now Logan understood. She was always proud of being the hostess of the Wilsons. And now she made a groveling apology to him, for her dear son.
His silence made her confused, “Don’t you know about it? You didn’t do it?”
“My advice: check around his social circle; he might offend someone else.”
Mrs. Wilson was irritated again by his remarks. At first, Elena’s fake news was covered by the news of KL. No one talked about Elena’s affair anymore. And then she received the explanation from the Browns, convincing her that the affair was just a mistake. Just a moment later, her son James was arrested! What a coincidence! If it wasn’t Logan, who would do such a thing to her son?
“Logan Brown, don’t play innocent in front of me! Just make your point! What do you want from me?!”
Logan squinted, showing his anger, “Mrs. Wilson, you would have found out who did this to your son if you didn’t make that call. Don’t waste my time.”
Then he hung up the phone without hesitation.
Elena knew he might be angry from his expression, but she wasn’t that sure because she couldn’t hear what they were talking clearly, “They got trouble and blamed you?”
“Yes. James has been arrested. Mrs. Wilson thought it was me who made it and urged me to let go of her son.”
Roger sneered, “The Wilsons has nothing but quite a temper!”
Logan agreed, “I guess the Wilson’s business is being ruined by the wife and the mistress. You know, they have been in battle for years. And now, it’s their sons’ turn. I guess there’s a new crisis in the Wilsons, and it won't be solved easily. It’s a disaster living in their house.”
Roger couldn’t help laughing, “It’s good to get the chance to enjoy live wretched movies every day in that house. Interesting.”
An idea occurred to Logan, so he smiled and answered, “I guess the mistress will win in this show.”
“How do you know?”
“Reasonable guess. As I know, Charlie is more sensible than James. James is a playboy doing nothing well. While Charlie is a smart guy, enduring hardship for years and conserving his strength. So who do you think will win in this battle?”
Roger understood it and smiled, “You are right.”
Elena didn’t know what they were talking about exactly. She just assumed that their topic was about the sons of the Wilsons.
Logan saw her focused on pondering, so he rubbed her hair and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“Something you are talking about.” She answered.
“You know what we are talking about.”
Roger also looked at her kindly, “Elena, you don’t have to worry about it. By the way, Logan will take all of it on his shoulder.”
She nodded, “I know.”
