Presiden's wild wife novel Chapter 211

Unlike Cornel’s sourness and Mason’s selfishness, Roger was a dashing and attractive man. Being with him would be comfortable.

Elena smiled, “I am so glad to have a meal with you, Uncle Roger. But why do you want to meet us?”

“Hey! Do I have to find a reason?” Roger looked at them, laughing, “You might forget what I look like if I don’t come to you for a long time. You’ve gone through so much, but you didn’t tell me.”

Logan was surprised, and he knew why he wanted to meet them.

Elena was silent. She didn’t know where to start. Roger was patient, waiting for her answer. Then he asked, “What happened to the Bushes and the Browns. Are they in trouble?”

“No, they are not. But we were in trouble.” Elena explained it.

“Alright. Look, I don’t care about what happened to the Bushes or the Browns. I want to know how you two have been lately. And I heard about the fake news. Does it have anything to do with the other girl of the Bushes?"

Elena blurted out, “How do you know?”

Roger sighed, “Did they punish you?”

“Uncle Roger, you…”

“Easy! I just felt strange when I touched Logan’s coat.”

Elena lowered her head, looking so guilty. The doctor wrapped his back with a thick bandage, which even changed the shape of the coat. He did look a bit strange now.

Roger took Elena’s reaction as yes. He became angry, roaring in a low voice, “Cornel, the old silly man! And his stupid woman. Damn!”

“Uncle Roger…”

Elena was still confused. “How did you know everything? How did you know they punished us?”

Roger answered, “It is so obvious. I know Grandpa George is sensible. The one who hit you without any reason must be Cornel!”

Elena nodded. Now she understood it.

She held Logan’s hand under the table and whispered to him, “Well, to be honest, Uncle Roger and you are so similar.”

Logan smiled confidently, “Why? Because both of us are so clever?”

“Hey, don’t flatter yourself!” She glanced at him. But she did agree with what he said. They were so smart.

Roger saw them acting so close, so he felt somewhat relieved, “Look at you, sweet couple. You look good. I was overly worried.”

“Thank you.” Logan answered, “You are always scrupulous. I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want to bother you.”

“Hey! Stop it, boy! You will never bother me!”

Logan smiled, “Thank you.”

“You have grown up and impressed me recently. You got a spy in your company and he even sold your top secret. Thankfully you are capable, dealing with it perfectly. And now everyone is praising you. You are lucky enough, boy. Well done!”

“I know.” Logan smiled at him with confidence.

Roger shook his head, sighing, “Well, I am so old. I still treat you as a little boy.”

“It’s okay. He is a little boy in front of you, Uncle Roger. He still gets a lot of things to learn from you. If he does something wrong, please make him learn his lesson. I will be happy about that.” Elena said, looking at Logan with a smile.

Logan patted her head gently, “Well, are you selling me out?”

Elena looked into his eyes, arguing, “No, I am not. Am I wrong? If you make a mistake, you should learn your lesson, right?”

“Did I make mistake?”

“Of course you did,” Elena answered immediately.

Logan didn’t understand it, “Then tell me.”

But Elena wouldn’t tell it in front of Roger. She kept stammering.

Seeing this, Roger seemed to know something and smiled again, “Look at you two, so sweet! I couldn’t help blushing for you.”

“Don’t make fun of us, Uncle Roger.”

She lowered her head.

Roger smiled even more widely, patting Logan’s shoulder and saying, “Good boy! I guess you two will have your baby quite soon, right?”

Recalling the physical examination they did, Logan smiled, “We hope so.”

Roger was so excited. He subconsciously shited his gaze to Elena’s belly, “Any good news?”

Elena gave Logan a sharp glance, complaining that he was misleading Roger.

“Not yet. But, soon, I guess.” Logan said in a calm tone, pinching her hand under the table.

Roger understood it. Then he changed the subject, “What about the Browns? Have you found out the truth? Or…”

“Don’t worry about it, Uncle Roger. I’ll get to the bottom of this though it’s been so many years.”

Talking about the Browns, Logan became sullen. Something cruel was flashing in his eyes.

Roger said, “Well, I won’t worry about it. But I think you…should move on.”

He was sad to see that Logan was living to spite Cornel. They met twice and now he realized that Logan looked less mean. He was more tender than before. It seemed that he tried to chance on purpose.

A thought occurred to him. He looked at Elena. Seemingly he changed after being with Elena.

Elena didn’t know why Roger looked at her. She asked, “Uncle Roger, why are you looking at me? Is mud on my face?”

“No, no.” He quickly looked away, dragging himself back to the reality from his daydreaming.

The meal was served. So Roger said, “Let’s enjoy the meal now.”

Elena smiled mildly, “Thank you, Uncle Roger.”

While they were enjoying the meal, Logan received a phone call from the Wilsons.

It was Mrs. Wilson, who made an apology on the phone. Elena sat so close to Logan so she could hear it. But why was she apologizing? Elena had no clue.

Logan looked at her and shook his head, showing that he didn’t know the reason either. Then he said in a calm tone to Mrs. Wilson, “Why do you apologize, Mrs. Wilson? You came to the Browns, claiming that you did nothing wrong and asking for an explanation if my memory serves me right.”

“Logan…” Mrs. Wilson tried to speak in a soft tone, sounding like begging, which made Logan feel more sarcastic.
