After a while of silence, Logan started to talk, “Did Jacob mention anything about G City?”
“Hey, that can wait. Your surgery is the priority!” Elena said, holding his hands tightly. “Logan. I hope you’ll be well. I don’t care who my biological father is.”
What was more, she couldn’t accept it till now. She was afraid to find the truth…
So, no matter what, Logan was the top one on her list. She could put everything aside for him.
Logan’s dark eyes blinked, “OK. I’ll listen to you.”
She smiled, feeling relieved. She thought it would take time to persuade him.
Then he called Roger back, “Uncle Roger, I am sorry that the appointment has to be canceled. I am not available in days.”
Roger was confused, “Why? There’s something wrong with your business? Or the Browns is troubling you again…”
“Uncle Roger.” Logan interrupted. Seeing Elena out of the corner of his eyes, he looked mild, “I will have an operation in days, so I need to go abroad to do some preparation. We may stay there for days or weeks to wait for the result.”
Roger was so surprised. He became tearful when he heard the news.
“When…When will you set off? I want to go with you.”
“No, thanks. Elena will be with me. I know you are busy. Please don’t worry about me, Uncle Roger.”
Roger shot him an angry glance, “Hey, boy! I am not busy! I must go with you!”
Roger insisted to go with him. Logan couldn’t persuade him. So he had no choice but to agree.
At last, Logan made up his mind to accept this surgery. And Jacob contacted the hospital to let them schedule it.
George got the news somehow and went to meet them in a great hurry with Cornel. Due to the punishment, Cornel still looked at Elena sharply.
But Elena didn’t mind, smiling at them as she should do.
George and Logan were talking in the study. Cornel sat on the couch in the living room, looking at Elena with great discontent, “What is it gonna take for you to give up Logan?”
Elena raised her face slowly, looking back at him in amazement, “Are you talking to me?”
“Who else is in the living room now?”
Elena’s eyes blinked, “I don’t know what you mean. Are you unhappy with me?”
“You are a jinx! Jacqueline is right! You never truly care for Logan! You are ruining him!” He scolded.
“I am ruining him?” She couldn’t believe what he said.
Cornel added, “Yes, you are! You knew that it was impossible for him to walk again! But you pushed him to do the examination. And now you pushed him to accept the useless surgery! I know what you want! You want to destroy him, don’t you?”
Elena didn’t know why he ever got this conclusion.
She failed to keep up with his mind, “You want to see him sit in the wheelchair for the rest of his life but you won’t do anything to help him, don’t you?”
Logan had a chance to get fully recovered. There was no reason for him to give up the surgery.
