Two people, that's a lot better than one might think.
The corners of the man's lips hooked up a meaningful arc, no one could see through what he was thinking in his mind at the moment.
Jacob could not help but take a few steps forward, then only to hear the man slowly spit out the words, after that, the heart but shocked simply can not say any words to ......
Edward how can not expect Roger will appear in the Fords, and even and Elena met, all by the time he returned to the Fords from the Ford Group has been too late.
He quickly suppressed his dismay and squeezed out a smile, "Roger, when did you get here and why didn't you tell me?"
"If I had told you in advance, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to see the people I wanted to see." Roger said with intent.
Edward subconsciously glanced at Elena, but saw that the latter's reaction was flat, making his already tight frown deepen, "Roger, what are you talking about, no matter when you come to see me, I am just as welcome."
Roger nodded and smiled, "That's natural, it's just that I wanted to see Elena as well as you."
When he said that, his eyes also fell on Elena's body.
Elena gently stroked her stomach, her gaze soft.
Edward saw the situation in time to grab her before she spoke without saying anything directly up to Roger and pulled him up and took him directly to the study.
Elena tried to follow her, but the butler stepped in front of her just in time and shook her head in a silent discouragement.
"Mr. Butler, don't stop me, I can't leave him alone with Edward."
Edward's person these days she felt very thorough, if Roger does not give him a little face, there is no telling what he will do.
The housekeeper still shook his head, "Elena, I'm not saying that I advise you to stay out of Mr. Ford and Mr. Scott's business now, they've always been good friends and have never been at odds, so there's nothing going on."
"That was before! It's impossible to say now."
Further ......
She was most worried that if Edward knew about her current relationship with Roger, he would be even more devastated and do something that no one could have predicted.
Even with that said the butler still shook his head at her, "Elena, I'm sorry, I can't get out of the way, you should go to your room and get some rest, I'll go to the study and see if anything happens, I'll make sure to stop it."
"How do you expect me to believe you? You're on Edward's side if ......"
"There are no ifs." The butler interrupted her quickly, "Elena, no matter what I hope you will put the baby in your belly first and do more thinking for him."
The butler dropped the last sentence without looking at her again, leaving her to make her own judgment.
Elena took a deep breath, clenched her lower lip, and went back inside her bedroom in silence only after half a second.
Adele tried to follow her into the house, but Elena shut her out with a stern look, "Edward is home now, so you don't get to watch me all the time!"
"Exposure ...... Exposure?"
Elena's hands shook and the phone fell on the bed because she didn't hold it steady, her eyes dull with a flash of fear.
She couldn't imagine what Edward would do if he found out, and she didn't dare to think about it.
As if guessing what was in her mind when she didn't answer, Logan sent a message again, "Don't be afraid, protect yourself well, I'll be by your side soon."
Elena looked down at the content of the message, as if she could clearly perceive the man holding her gently in his arms and speaking the same soothing words to her.
She clenched her lower lip, her small hand loomed and trembled and fell on her belly, her eyes firm for a few moments.
Both hands picked up the phone again to edit the message to send over but found that the message had already been edited and could not be sent out.
She vaguely guessed that perhaps ...... was some network permission that could not be made accessible to people to arrive, so that she then could not reach him anyhow.
Just no matter how, now she only knows one thing, protect herself and her child, Logan will come to pick her up, he will take her home in name only ......
Inside the study, Edward just walked in and released his grip on his sleeve, "Roger, what are you doing here at this hour? I thought you were going to open a new branch in H City?"
Roger slowly sat down in front of him, "That and what I came over to see you about today are not the same thing, much less to be confused."
"Roger......" Edward narrowed his eyes, vaguely sensing something wrong, "Why are you talking a little differently today than you used to, what's wrong with you? "
