Chapter 310 Who Was in Charge
Chapter 310 Who Was in Charge
“What?”
Jacqueline was stunned and couldn’t make any reaction.
Yolanda immediately became alert and said, “Yes. My mom has really made great efforts.”
“No wonder.” Elena smiled, “I’ve heard that it’s very difficult for people who don’t know needlework to learn. Besides, there are various weaving methods. If I were to make a blanket, I would have to toss about for a month, let alone a cloak. There is also embroidery on it…”
She caressed the lifelike plum blossom on the cloak carefully. The color seemed to make the plum alive, which could not be ignored by anyone!
George frowned, and could not help but also carefully looked at his blanket.
Indeed, the time was enough for her to only weave the blanket, but the embroidery on it…
Yolanda suddenly stood up, “Elena, what do you mean by that? Mom is so kind that she prepared gifts for all of us. Why do you still say that? If you don’t like this cloak, I can send it to Anna another day.”
Cornel looked at Elena discontentedly, “Elena, you are our family. Jacqueline treated you in all sincerity. How can you say these words to her?”
“What did I say?”
Elena blinked as if she was innocent.
Yolanda gritted her teeth and didn’t answer her.
Elena turned her head to look at Logan. She pouted her mouth, “I just wanted to say that I can’t do needlework. What else did I say? Aunt Jacqueline is clever in mind and skillful in hand. Can’t I just
commend her?”
“Of course, you can.” Logan rubbed her hair and said with a doting voice.
Cornel got very angry. George was showing partiality for an outsider.
Cornel was kept in the dark. But George had understood what was going on after hearing Elena’s words. He put the blanket aside and said in a deep voice, “Okay, since Jacqueline gives you these gifts, you both just take them.”
Jacqueline saw what George had done and said, “Dad, I still have to tell you that our family…”
Yolanda pulled her, “Mom…”
Jacqueline drew her hand back, “I had done something wrong before, so Elena and Logan misunderstood me. But now Elena’s baby is fine, and Logan’s leg has recovered too. I really feel happy for them.”
“It’s good that Aunt Jacqueline feels happy.” Elena smiled.
“Elena…” Jacqueline got up. She walked to Elena and held her hand, “I hope you can forgive me for what I had done before!”
“Forgive you?”
Elena laughed out, “Aunt Jacqueline did that unintentionally. Since you didn’t mean to, it’s not your fault. I don’t need to forgive you.”
“Elena! Don’t go too far!” Jacqueline couldn’t bear it anymore. She jumped up.
Elena leaned to Logan’s arms and fiddled with the cloak, “What do you mean by going too far? Do you mean you had done something wrong but you didn’t correct it and went even further? Or do you mean
you’ve bullied others, but you keep making the same mistake?
Logan pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ear, “Enough.”
They were in the Brown’s Villa. They couldn’t place their family in an embarrassing situation. No matter what, he had to show due respect for George’s feelings.
“Got it.” Elena squeezed his palm and responded.
“Good girl.” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
Logan stroked her hand, “I will help you fight back in the future.”
Hearing this, Elena complained that what Logan wanted to do was going too far. She just said a few more words.
Yolanda was so angry that she couldn’t even speak. She simply hid in Cornel’s arms and began to cry in a low voice.
George cleared his throat and said seriously, “Okay! That’s enough.”
Jacqueline was not reconciled. Everyone knew that George wanted to patch up their quarrel and reconcile them. He also didn’t want Yolanda and Jacqueline to talk more. In any case, Jacqueline could only swallow her reservations.
“Grandpa, I don’t think I have the luck to take this cloak. Yolanda also said that she can give it to Anna. So let her send it over.”
Yolanda was furious. She was just ridiculing her. It seemed that it was her fault now.
George nodded and said, “In that case, just do it.”
“Yolanda...”
George called her. Yolanda responded, but not convinced in her mind, “Grandpa.”
“Just listen to Elena. If Anna likes it, take it to her. You two have always been in a good relationship. She probably won’t dislike this. Besides, it’s your mom who made it.”
Yolanda gritted her teeth, “Okay!”
After that, Yolanda glared at Elena secretly.
In order to absolve her mom from guilt, she asked several people to make those gifts by hand. But everything went wrong when Elena was here. Even George had noticed something was wrong.
Everything she prepared was in vain. She felt furious, let alone her mom.
Elena felt someone was staring at her. After she raised her head, she saw Yolanda’s eyes full of resentment.
Elena smiled at her calmly, which made Yolanda even angrier.
Everyone in the room held their tongue and stay aside, except Cornel, who was holding his scarf tightly.
Jacqueline took back her hand and said, “I haven’t come out for many days. I have to go out later, so I’ll go upstairs and change my clothes first.”
“Mom! I’ll go with you!”
Yolanda went up and held her. She looked very filial.
Jacqueline nodded and took her upstairs.
Cornel clenched the scarf in his hand discontentedly and looked at Elena, “You are really a hoodoo. There will be no peace in our family if you are here!”
“Dad, you are overpraising me.” Elena raised her chin and saw his eyes which were full of resentment.
Elena was very calm. She regarded what he said just now as some words he said to praise her. Cornel’s face was shivering.
Cornel looked at George and said in anger, “Dad, if you keep indulging her like this, I’m afraid she will be in charge of our family soon!”
Logan narrowed his eyes, “Who in this family has regarded himself as the master? I think dad knows better than anyone.”
