It was already noon when Zach got out of the bed with Sophia. Jseph stared at Zach like he was about to skin him alive which made Zach a bit scared.
After glaring at Zach, Jseph also cast a disappointing look at Sophia.
Sophia then looked back awkwardly, but both moms were through the roof and wanted to arrange a wedding date right away. Sophia was taken aback and immediately yelled, “Mom! There is no hurry here!”
“What hurry? This is between me and your auntie Stones. Don’t meddle here.” Mrs. Mckinley then flapped her hand and grabbed Mrs. Stones’s. “My dear in-laws...”
Sophia was tripped over and almost fell to the ground. ‘How come they were in-laws all of a sudden?’
Hugging her into his chest, Zach tilted his eyebrows at her which seemed like to be saying, ‘Sweetie, you see, our parents are cool with this now!”
Sophia felt like crying and thought that she didn’t get much to say in this parents meeting which two moms handled everything and Zach also persuaded Jseph pretty quickly.
Elena then got Sophia’s call in the mansion. Hearing Sophia’s complaining, Elena was smiling the whole time and at last just said directly, “Hey, you are not really complaining. You are just being so lovey-dovey!”
“I’m not!” Sophia said in a tone like she was wronged.
Sophia may can’t figure this out herself, but Elena just reminded, “You are the one who is all spoiled here. What are you angry for? Both of your parents and Zach’s all love you.”
Hearing Sophia’s words, Elena even got a bit jealous. Growing up in the Bushs, all she got was Mason’s vague family love which she later realized that it was all because of Joanna.
Because she looked like her...
Sophia didn’t know why bit she can sense that Elena was a bit sad. She then said hurriedly, “Not really. You are thinking too much. They don’t love me that much.”
Elena let out a smile and didn’t say more.
Logan called Jacob into the study while Elena was taking Sophia’s call. He threw the proposal regarding the Ford’s business cooperation to Jacob and said, “Go and contact Edward. Tell him that this cooperation is terminated!”
“Sir... this is...”
“You don’t need to worry here. Just do what I told you.”
Though he was still confused, Jacob can only answer, “What should I say if they ask?”
“Just tell him that this cooperation won’t bring KL much interest. There is no need to take risks here.” Knitting his eyebrows, Logan continued, “Also, don’t let Elena see him or bump into him.”
Jacob’s heart almost skipped a bit and immediately though of Kent’s words. Then he wondered, ‘Did Logan get to know that?”
“There is nothing here. Just keep her from knowing this. I will bring her home in a couple of days. Grandpa George knew something was wrong but just didn’t know what happened exactly, so he was pretty worried these days.”
“Okay, I will then arrange the schedule in the company.” Jacob said excitedly. “Sir, I’m sure a lot of people would be excited and happy if you go back to the company.”
“NO.”
Logan shook his head and quirked up the corner of his mouth, “Let’s just this private for now.”
While Jacob was just about to ask him the reason in bewilderment, Logan let out a deep smile and said, “The Browns is still watching us closely. If we let them know at this point, I’m afraid that Jacqueline would just leave that separated yard immediately.”
Nodding his head, Jacob said, “Yes!”
“You can leave now.” Logan waved his hand.
While Jacob was stepping out of the room, he bumped into Elena who was just coming upstairs. The two then nodded to each other.
Biting her lips lightly, Elena said, “I didn’t really expect that I would fall in love with you! If I had known this before, I would be much sweeter!”
Logan then pinched at her nose affectionately. “I would hate to see you being all considerate.”
“Stop it.” Pushing him away, Elena got up and looked serious, “Well, there is just one thing that I can’t really get over!”
“Say it.”
Logan just played with her hand in his palm lazily to the point that she felt itchy and retracted her hand hurriedly, “I’m serious!”
Okay.”
Logan waited for her words lovingly.
But Elena just knew that he wasn’t really serious and can’t help reaching out her hand and rubbing his mesmerizing face. “I’ve always been wondering why would you marry me?”
She had asked this questions a million times before but never got an answer. Thinking about this, she got more upset.
“You want know the answer?”
Elena’s eyes immediately brightened up, “Of course I do!”
“Then should I just give you this answer?” Logan let out an enthralling smile.
Elena immediately nodded. Seeing that he was keeping secretive on purpose, she said sweetly, “Just tell me, all right? Or I would just think about this for the rest of my life!”
