Presiden's wild wife novel Chapter 277

“Elena was abducted? When? Why didn’t I know?” Roger turned his attention, and he no longer talked about the Fords.

Logan pinched his lips, then he said, “It was too complicated. And I don’t want to talk about that. Anyway, I don’t want to have any contact with the Fords.”

“But…” Roger hesitated for a moment, then he still explained for the Fords, “Kent is merely a bastard son. What he has done has nothing to do with the Fords.”

“But he is related to the Fords by blood.”

There was coldness flickering through Logan’s eyes, “Are you satisfied with my answer now?”

Roger was jolted, then he took steps backward. Looking at Logan, he found that he was not that familiar with Logan anymore. After a while, he took a deep breath, “That’s it…”

“I know what you want to say. But I have to remind you – although you treat others with kindness and honesty, they may not treat you equally.” Logan interrupted his word directly with his piercing eyes.

Roger looked into Logan’s eyes with his sharp eyes, “What are you insinuating?”

Logan shook his head, “I’m not insinuating anything. I just want to warn you.”

However, Roger still felt uneasy. He thought Logan had been hiding something from him, or he himself had ignored some important things.

A smile lifted on the corner of Logan’s lips. “Roger, there are two reasons why I ask you to come. First, I want you to know my current situation, but only you can know that. Second…”

He drawled and then turned silent.

Roger took a deep breath and waved his hand, “That’s okay if you don’t want to tell me.”

Logan felt a bit sorry. But he did not say anything. Roger did not know anything that Logan wanted to asked him, which made Logan more vigilant.

They did not speak again. After a long time, Roger lifted his hand and had a look at his watch, “It occurs to me that I have an appointment with Edward in a nearby building. Do you want to come with me?”

“No.”

Logan moved in his wheelchair, “Then I’ll go home.”

“OK.”

“Roger, I don’t want you to tell anyone about what we’ve talked and done today.” Logan specifically stressed “anyone”.

Roger was more puzzled. But Logan only gave him a smile and did not speak again.

They looked at each other, then Roger made a concession and did not continue to ask, “I’ll do as you said. Moreover, I will keep this secret even if you haven’t reminded me. At least, I’ll not let the Browns know about that.”

Logan nodded his head slightly. Standing outside the door, Jacob seemed to know they were about to leave. He opened the door and walked in, “Mr. Scott, do you need a ride?”

“No.” Roger shook his head. Then he strode out after he grabbed his coat.

Looking at Roger, Logan lost in thought.

Jacob could always read Logan’s mind. He knew roughly what had happened after he saw Logan’s look. “Doesn’t Roger know that?”

“Maybe. It seemed that he did not lie to me. Besides, he need not lie to me.”

“Then…”

Jacob was hesitant. They came to Roger today because they wanted to figure out something from him. But it turned out he didn’t know anything.

Logan frowned, “Let’s go. We’ll know eventually.”

He just wanted to confirm what Kent had told him. But, oddly, no one knew that other than him. Kent was not supposed to know much about that because he was so young back then…

Logan kept thinking about that, but he was still unable to get a clue. Then he lifted his hand and rubbed at his forehead. “Well, I thought he might know about that. But it’s good to know he doesn’t know about that. Then he has nothing to do with it.”

Jacob nodded his head. “Right, it’s a good thing that Roger is not involved.”

A good thing?

Logan lowered his hand. His eyes were so deep that others could find nothing from his eyes.

After Elena came home, she kicked off her shoes and came in. Then she threw herself on the bed and dialed Sophia.

Sophia answered the phone very soon and said briskly, “Elena?”

“Right, it’s me. Are you with Zach now?”

“No.” Sophia felt others were watching her so she lowered her voice, “I’m working. He’s at home.”

“What?”

Elena thought for a while. Then it occurred to her that Sophia had said that she was going to work in Charlie’s company. But Elena had forgotten that after all the things she had went through these days.

“Have you forgotten?” Sophia asked in a low tone.

Elena’s face flushed. She nodded her head. But then she thought Sophia could not see her nodding, so she replied hurriedly, “I know, then hurry to your work. I won’t bother you now.”

“OK, I’ll call you later.”

“OK.”

Elena said and hung up the phone. Then she called Zach. She had thought they were hanging out together so she did not dial him directly. She was afraid that Logan would know.

Zach sounded excited when he answered the phone, “Elena! Why do you call?”

Elena rubbed her forehead. She thought Zach’s personality was very similar to that of Sophia now. He even picked up the phone in the same way with Sophia.

“Elena, what’s wrong? Say something, or you are making me very nervous!”

Elena stopped thinking and turned serious, “I’ve asked you to investigate the background of Mason, what have you got?”

“My god! You just told me about that, and now you need the result?” Zach shouted with discontent.

Elena pretended to realize something, “So, you are feeling impotent? Why don’t you tell me earlier? Then I won’t call you.”

“No!”

Zach rounded his eyes with anger. He could not tolerate that anyone called him “impotent”. It was about his pride and dignity. He would never say that he felt impotent.

Thinking of that, Zach promised her, “Elena, just wait. I’ll show you the result within three days.”

Elena was content, then she smiled, “Thank you so much.”

Zach’s heart thumped wildly. After a while, he realized that he seemed to be fooled by Elena again.
