Cornel was startled and hurried to support him, “Well, well. I call her now. You don’t be so excited.”
George was soothed, and said with his hand covering the chest, “If she declines, let me answer the call. I believe she will listen to me.”
Cornel called Elena reluctantly, while a robot voice told him that her phone was off now.
He even put it on speaker to show George, “Dad, I am calling her, but no one answers.”
“Why did she answer before?”
“I had no idea. Perhaps her phone is out of juice now.”
George was so mad at his unsympathetic tone, “Now that, you should point someone to take her back.”
Jacqueline was unwilling to bring Elena to George, so she said immediately, “Dad, maybe Elena is reluctant to answer the call, and she is so sad. We don’t…”
“Sad for what?” George looked at her, “My grandson is not dead, and he is fine. Are you cursing him?”
“We didn’t mean that?”
“I don’t care what method you take. You have to bring Elena back here! We can talk later about Logan, but now I have to see Elena.”
If Logan really died, he had to have his hope on Elena and her baby. So he couldn’t lose any one of the both.
Speaking, George’s voice sounded so sad.
Jacqueline wore an upset face, and Cornel pulled her and said, “You go and find several men to search for Elena. If she declines to go back here, I will go to find her myself.”
Jacqueline couldn’t say no, so she nodded. Before she left, Jacqueline gave a thoughtful look at Yolanda.
Yolanda was smart, so she caught on immediately. Then she said to George. “I go and ask my friends for help.”
Then the two left the ward.
They just got out of the ward, then Jacqueline at once grabbed Yolanda and pulled her to a corner. Yolanda said with an ugly look on her face, “You said Logan and Elena went out together, right? Why is Elena still fine while Logan met a car accident?”
“Who knows!” Jacqueline said.
Yolanda nearly burst into tears, “You don’t know, then no one knows.”
“If she comes back safely, all our efforts will be in vain. And she is pregnant and her baby is the son of the Brown family.”
“Stop!” Jacqueline scolded, “I know definitely that Elena cannot come back.”
If Elena came back and mentioned the thing about the protective talisman, George must be more sick of her.
But…why was Elena safe?
Thousands of thoughts occupied her mind, but she cannot catch one clue.
Yolanda looked at Jacqueline, then asked, “So we have to ask several people to find Elena?”
“Of cause not! George is old and fool, and you are fool, too?”
“What do you mean?”
