“I don’t need his love.” What kind of love was that? Only the one who was obedient to him would get his approval and affection.
That was ridiculous.
Yolanda opened her mouth. What Logan had said was unbelievable to her. In her mind, Logan would never say that. And he was more and more different with the one she knew.
Being quiet, Elena held Logan’s hand tightly, “We should go. Aren’t you going to meet Roger? It’s late.”
“Okay.”
“Elena!” Yolanda shouted out hurriedly, “Aren't you afraid that you’ll ruin him?”
Elena blinked her eyes and did not know what Yolanda meant at first. But then she realized Yolanda was referring to Logan. She smiled broadly, “Then it’s not up to you.”
Yolanda blushed as she was angered by Elena’s indifference. “You are so arrogant just because you’re Logan’s wife. If it weren’t him, do you think you really have the right to be haughty in front of me?”
“You’re right.”
Elena replied bluntly, “I never say I have nothing to do with him. I’m his wife. And it’s reasonable that he would try to protect me. Are you feeling jealous of me?”
“Are you out of your mind? Why would I be jealous?”
“Well, then I’m wrong. I wonder maybe you are being disgruntled because you don’t have a boyfriend and you are not the spoiled child in the Browns.”
“Elena! What are you saying?”
Yolanda rounded her eyes, as if she wanted to eat Elena alive.
Elena gave her a smile, “Nothing. We have some urgent business to attend to, so we need to go.”
Yolanda still wanted to say something. But George grabbed her hand with a scowl, which stopped her, “Grandpa…”
“Logan, you may go now.”
“OK.”
Logan nodded his head, “Jacob, bring in the supplements we bought for George, then we don’t need to come to send the supplements next time.”
Jacob nodded and went out to take the stuff.
Yolanda also left in anger. George looked at the upstairs and then stared at Logan, saying in an undertone, “Logan, I know what you’ve done recently, and I know you must have done these for some reasons…”
“Grandpa, you’re overthinking it.” Logan denied with a smile, “All I want to do is to expand the business of KL. It’s not that complicated.”
George gazed at him for a while, then he said with a sigh, “OK, then. Have it your own way.”
After they left the Brown's Villa, Logan squeezed Elena’s hand and said, “I drive you home at first. Then I’ll go home after I come to meet Roger.”
“Okay.” Nodding, Elena knew he would spend much time talking with Roger when they saw each other, especially about his legs.
When Logan came to Roger, Roger looked at him with guilt in his eyes. Logan observed his look and then said, “Roger, you still think that the operation failed was because of you?”
Roger did not have any response. But there was something in his eyes showing that Logan was right.
“Jacob, go out. And do not let anybody come in.” Logan said in a cold voice.
Following Logan’s order, Jacob walked out and closed the door.
