Logan saw a twinkle in her eyes, so he smiled resignedly. “Don’t try to make me forget that.”
Elena was dispirited, “Then what do you want?”
“I want you.”
Elena lifted her eyes and looked at him. But she found the amusement in his eyes and realized he was teasing her. Then she was more frustrated.
While she was jolted, Logan had taken the flask in her hand and poured out the soup. Then he took the soup to her lips.
Elena shook her head, “I’ve had it at home.”
“Have some more, or you’ll be hungry later.”
Elena rounded her eyes, but Logan covered her eyes with his hand instantly, “Stop that.”
Elena took off his hand, “Fine, I’ll have some more. OK, Mr. Brown?”
“That’s my girl.” He stroked her hair and added, “Don’t come to the company for me these days. We still don’t know what Jacqueline is going to do. I’m afraid that she will do something to you.”
“What about the man that has been arrested?” Elena chewed her lower lip.
“He was still in the police station. But don’t worry about his family, Jacob has settled them down.”
Hearing that, Elena’s eyes sparkled at once, “So, Jacqueline is not able to threaten him with his family?”
“Yeah.”
“That’s great!”
Elena breathed a sigh of relief secretly. “His family should not suffer the consequence because of his fault. Anyway, his wife and kids have nothing to do with this, so they should not be involved.”
Logan agreed and smiled at her, “So you should be relieved now, Mrs. Brown?”
Elena gave him an embarrassed smile and temporized him, “Of course. I’m relieved whenever you are in charge.”
Logan was amused by her words, so he pinched her cheek lightly. Before he said something, there was a knock at the door. Elena stood up immediately, “Maybe I should go to the lounge and leave you to your work?”
“No, stay here.”
“But…”
Logan stared at her with a frown, “Mrs. Brown, have you forgotten your job?”
Her job? His assistant? She had not worked for days, so she thought she was supposed to be fired.
But Logan insisted that she should stay there, so she had to sit where she used to sit and turned on the computer.
Logan was satisfied seeing that. He leaned back in his chair and said with his thin lips curving in a smile, “Come in.”
“Sir, Miss Lee from the Lee Group wants to meet you, should I…”
“Miss Lee?” Elena scowled, “Anna Lee?”
“Yes.”
