Presiden's wild wife

Chapter 117 I only trust her

Everyone was shocked by Yolanda’s scream. And their first response was to check whether Anna got hurt!

Holding Anna’s bleeding fingers, Mrs. Lee was so worried, "What happened? You are wounded! How?"

"God! Let me check. Is it deep? Shall we call the doctor?" Jacqueline said.

Logan came in his wheelchair. Seeing Elena left aside by the crowd, he restrained his anger and said with a long face, "Is it painful?"

"No," Elena took a handkerchief to cover the wound. She shook her head, "It’s not deep. Don’t worry."

Anna was surrounded by the crowd. When asked what happened, she replied slowly, "Elena took the pot and it was too hot. She dropped it to the ground. I meant to help but..."

Hearing this, they looked at Elena with complaint.

Yolanda curled her lips, "Oh, Elena, how could you do this? You dropped the hot soup and had Anna clear the mess for you?"

"No, Yolanda. I asked for it myself. I was clumsy." Anna pretended to defend Elena.

"But after all, you wouldn’t have gotten hurt if it weren’t for her!" Yolanda said in anger. She glanced at Logan, "Logan, come and see. Anna’s finger is bleeding!"

Logan didn’t even look at her. He grasped Elena’s hand and turned around, "You need a doctor, not me!"

"But…"

"Enough!" Grandpa George was watching this in silence. He interrupted her, "It was an accident. Stop talking nonsense. Yolanda, go and call the doctor!"

Logan sneered in his heart. He took Elena out of the kitchen without a word, and asked the housekeeper to bring the medical kit.

Elena sat in the sofa and quietly let him disinfect the wound. After bandaging the wound, he raised his face and asked, "How did you get wounded?"

"Never mind..."

"Elena!" Logan was unhappy about her answer.

Elena sighed. Thinking of Anna’s purpose, she felt wronged, "It was not me. She pulled my hand and cut my finger. I was astounded..." Her voice was becoming lower and lower, as if she was admitting her mistakes.

Logan’s eyes got cold at once. He asked icily, "Why?"

"She asked for a bet with me to see who you care more." Elena said softly. But sensing that the air was getting colder, she quickly shook her head and denied, "But I didn’t accept!"

It was Anna that thought herself knew everything and couldn’t wait to prove something.

Logan was somewhat self-blamed. Were it not for him, Anna wouldn’t have come up with such a crazy idea to make a bet.

"Ignore her. She is a lunatic now." he said sternly.

Elena nodded. she would never join her in such a mad thing. But how cruel she was to cut her finger by herself!

Half an hour later, the doctor arrived. He checked Anna’s wound and gave her a tetanus shot, "She’s fine. Keep the wound from water these days."

Mrs. Lee was comforting Anna. While Yolanda scolded Elena, "Elena, why are you just sitting there? Anna was injured because of you. Aren’t you going to apologize for it?"

"Yolanda, forget it..." Anna said softly.

The Lee Family wanted to let it go. But Yolanda was pissed off by Elena from the beginning, and now she found an outlet to vent her anger, "No, I can’t. Although she is my sister-in-law, it is true that she did wrong. Is it so difficult to make an apology?"

Hearing the scolding, Elena raised her eyes and smiled, "Then you must’ve had evidence to prove she got hurt because of me?" C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Well, what a sophistry!" Yolanda gritted her teeth and fought back. She pulled Grandpa George, "Grandpa, look at Elena. She dropped the soup and Anna was kind to help her and got herself hurt. But Elena wouldn’t even apologize. How cold she is!"

Grandpa George was embarrassed. He didn’t think Elena was unreasonable. But he also knew Anna since she was little. She would not tell a lie.

"Grandpa, say something," Yolanda continued.

"Apology?" Logan gave a wintry smile. He turned to Anna who always focused on him affectionately.

Yolanda nodded and her tone softened, "I don’t mean to be aggressive. But I am angry about Elena’s attitude. She never thinks she is wrong!"

"Because I am not," Elena sneered, " I didn’t do it, nor was I wrong."

"You mean Anna wronged you?"

"Do I? Yolanda, when did I say I was wronged by HER?" Elena looked down at her wounded finger. How ridiculous it was! She was innocent but Yolanda wouldn’t let her go!

Yolanda was so annoyed by her sharp tone that she had to find an ally. Jacqueline always tried to make trouble for Elena. Now there was a chance and she must seize it well. She nodded and said, "We all know Anna since she was little. She won’t lie about it. Elena, do you need evidence for an apology?"

Elena smiled and asked, "Then what if I tell you that the pot wasn’t dropped by me, and she just cut her finger with a broken porcelain piece, instead of getting hurt when helping me clear the mess?"

"How could that be!" Mrs. Lee was displeased, "You are the daughter-in-law of the Brown family. And we respect you for that! But my Anna can never do this!"

"Well, you don’t believe me, then what’s the point in my explanation? You should just ask me to admit it directly," Elena curled her lips with an unhappy look.

Logan asked Elena, "Did you ever touch that pot?"

"No," she answered quickly. Anna dropped the pot without giving her a chance to touch it.

Logan smiled charmingly, "The answer is very simple. There should be Elena’s fingerprints on the pot if she took it and then dropped it."

He was right!

Anna and Yolanda’s faces paled visibly with nervousness.

Cornel, who had been silent for a long time, couldn’t help roaring, "Nonsense! Why it is so hard to have a meal in peace? Do remember it’s a family day. Don’t make a fuss anymore!"
