Chapter 158 Unique gift
Chapter 158 Unique gift
Logan received a call from the Browns who asked him to go back and celebrate his birthday with them. But Logan refused at once, which irritated Grandpa George at once.
Anna heard his refusal and couldn’t help defending the Browns, “Logan, how can you refuse them? They are your family! How comes you are willing to celebrate your birthday with these people instead of your family?”
She blurted it out without thinking carefully, and her complaint made everyone silent for one second.
Elena put on a smile, “Since you are not his family, you may leave as you wish. You know, we won’t force you to stay here.”
Anna was embarrassed, her face turning pale. She lowered her head and sat beside Zach without saying any word.
Zach was helping Sophia dress the wound. Then he happened to see Anna’s red eyes, “What’s up?” asked he.
Anna shook her head, feeling wronged. She asked him in a low voice, “I shouldn’t have come here, right? They don’t seem to welcome me here. Or did I do something wrong?”
Zach didn’t know how to answer. She was right that no one here liked her. He deliberately kept a distance, and changed the subject, “You mentioned that your father liked the present I gave him, right? I just bought more and they are put in my car. We can take them to your father now.”
“What about the birthday party?” Anna was sullen, for she was reluctant to leave.
Zach looked at her with a serious look, “I don’t think it’s wise of you to stay here. Do you agree?”
Everyone could see that Logan didn’t welcome her at all. If she insisted to stay here, no one would be happy.
Anna was irritated by him. She growled, “What do you mean? Zach! I don’t care if they like me or not, but you are my boyfriend, you should... “
“Have you ever regarded me as your boyfriend, Anna?”
Anna was suffocated by his indifferent attitude. She looked at him in shock, but Zach’s cold expression made her scared as if the next second he would break up with her. She was afraid to be abandoned by him.
“Zach...” Anna tried to be soft, hugging him to show her compromise, “I know you are angry that I came here without telling you. But Logan is my friend. I just want to give him a gift.”
Her words just made it hard for him to breathe. But he tried his best to compose himself. “Then let’s leave here and go to visit your father.”
“That’s great! By the way, when shall we visit your mother? I remember your family always want to see your girlfriend, right?”
“Well...” Zach turned to Sophia subconsciously. But she was talking to Elena without paying attention to him, “It can wait. My mother is busy these days. She doesn’t have time to see you now. Anyway, we can visit her in the future.”
Anna believed him, nodding, “Alright. You are right.”
So they went to Elena and Logan and told them that they were leaving. Once they left, Sophia became uneasy. Elena patted her head gently, “What are you thinking? About Zach?”
“No!” Sophia denied immediately, “He is a bad guy! A playboy! And he has wronged me several times! Why do I think about him? Impossible! I just want him to pay it back!”
When she complained, she became even angrier.
Elena smiled without saying a word. It was the best for Sophia if she didn’t like Zach. Otherwise, things might get tricky.
Sophia noticed her smile, feeling upset, “Why do you mention him?”
“Nothing. I just want to remind you that Zach is not as simple as you think. It’s no good falling in love with him.”
“I won’t!” Sophia looked away. But she felt even more uneasy because of her warning.
Elena sighed silently. If Anna weren’t Zach’s girlfriend, he and Sophia might make a good couple. However, things didn’t go as she wished. Zach was so good at dealing with girls. He was a good player in love. Elena was afraid that Sophia would lose and get hurt in this game.
The atmosphere around them was quite weird at that moment. Fortunately, Daisy joined their conversation and enlivened the atmosphere. Sophia felt relieved.
Daisy sat down next to Elena, “Elena, now tell me what gift you will give Logan!”
“I haven’t got it.” She frowned.
“What?”
“The gift!” Elena pouted. The next second, she realized she was too loud. She vigilantly checked if Logan and David heard her. Luckily, they weren’t in the living room now. They went to the study earlier.
Daisy showed her dissatisfaction, “Just now they talked about a project, so they went upstairs. What workaholics!” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Elena felt relieved. After a while, Jacob came back. Elena stood up at once and pulled him to the corner. Jacob gave her the box with rings in it, “Madam. It’s made by your instruction. And I don’t tell a word to Mr. Brown.”
“Thank you!” Elena took the box and opened it. It was the same as she imagined, and even better. She was so surprised.
“Wow!”
Daisy noticed them talking in the corner, and followed to see what was going on. Then she happened to see the rings, which really surprised her, “You designed it yourself?”
It was too late for Elena to hide it, so she had to admit, “Yes.”
Daisy’s yelling attracted Sophia, and she walked to them as well. Elena’s face turned rosy since she was excited and happy, “Well, the idea just popped into my head. I don’t know if he will like it or not.”
“Definitely he will like it!” Daisy said, showing her envy, “So sad. I don’t have any talent in designing. Oh! I can ask David to make one for me! A unique one!”
Sophia complained, “So I have to rely on myself as I am single?” She immediately held Elena’s arm, “Listen! When I get married, you must design the rings for me!”
Elena couldn’t help laughing, “Do you trust my taste?”
“Of course!” She raised her face, looking at Elena filled with hope.
Elena agreed, “Then you should work hard to get a boyfriend first...”
Sophia took a huge sigh and lowered her head...
At this moment, Jacob saw Logan coming, “Sir!”
Elena immediately hid the rings behind her. Sophia and Daisy also stood in front of Elena to help keep the secret.
Logan raised his eyebrows, asking, “What are you doing? Something bad? Why do you all look so weird and nervous?”
“Nothing! My idol. Absolutely nothing!” Sophia was the first to explain. She looked innocent with her baby face. No one would think she was telling a lie.
