Once Elena arrived in the hospital, she was sent to the emergency room directly. Charlie and Sophia stood outside, waiting for the result in anxiety.
Sophia blamed herself with teary eyes. “It is my fault. I should have checked the washroom earlier and if I did, nothing would have happened to her. I should have sensed something weird. Elena is such a responsible girl. It’s impossible for her to leave without any word.”
“Don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault.” Charlie comforted her and frowned tightly. “But I want to know who will do such an evil thing.”
“Ah, Elena’s cell phone is ringing again.” Sophia sniffed and took out Elena’s phone. L was calling. But who was ‘L’?
Sophia said, “Is it her family calling? Should we tell him Elena’s situation?”
When Charlie saw L, he seemed to know who was calling. “Give me the phone. I will explain to him.”
Charlie knew who L was?
Sophia was confused and wondered why Charlie knew Elena’s family. But she gave him the phone anyway.
When Charlie walked away to answer the call, Sophia stayed outside the emergency room to wait for Elena.
One hour later, Sophia suddenly felt someone was approaching. She turned around and found Jacob was pushing the man in a wheelchair towards her. Logan Brown!
Was he my idol Logan Brown? Why was he here? And why did he look so angry and chilly even if he didn’t say anything?
“Why are you here my ido…? Mr. Brown?” Sophia stammered.
“Where is Elena?” Logan asked directly. He seemed calm and indifferent, but still brought great pressure to everyone present, just like the omen before a heavy storm.
“E…Elena is in the emergency room.” Sophia was surprised again. Why did her idol care about Elena so much? She recalled ‘L’ was calling Elena just now. Could ‘L’ be Logan Brown?”
“Mr. Brown.” Charlie greeted him calmly.
“What happened? Why’s she injured?” Logan stared at him sharply like a threatening knife.
Charlie shook his head and answered shortly, “I don’t know yet. But anyway, I will find out and inform you later. I also want to figure out which employee did such an evil thing!”
“I want more than an explanation.” His voice was low yet forcing.
Charlie heard his unspoken threats and was a little nervous. Now he knew why everyone said Logan was a hard nut to crack. He was truly an intimidating figure.
Sophia stood aside and listened to their conversation. Both of them are perfect elites. One was cold like the chilly and clear moon in the dark night. The other was warm like the bright sun.
Charlie composed himself and replied with a smile, “Of course. I won’t let you down.”
“Excuse me...” Sophia raised her hand timidly. “Maybe I know who did this to Elena.”
A sharp glance shot to her once she finished her words.
Charlie also asked immediately, “Who?”
Sophia swallowed saliva nervously and said, “I think it should be Aria. She always says Elena is a nasty mistress and holds grudge against her. When I was looking for Elena today, she told me that the washroom was closed because of repairing. Now I know she was trying to stop me from finding Elena.”
Sophia was more and more confident about her suspicion. “It must be her. She hated Elena because Elena took over her interview with Mr. Brown.”
“Aria?” Charlie got angry at once. Aria worked for the company for a long time. When he took over the magazine, he didn’t dismiss those senior employees. He knew since then, they had formed their own cliques. But he didn’t care as long as they worked hard.
But he could never expect Aria would take advantage of her seniority and even bully the other colleagues.
Logan’s face darkened. “Jacob, investigate her right now.”
Jacob nodded but hesitated to leave Logan alone. “What about you, Sir?”
“I stay here for her.” Logan said gently.
“OK.” Jacob added. “I will finish the admission procedures for madam and explain to Mr. Scott about the situation.”
