Presiden's wild wife

Chapter 49 I will protect you

Elena pretended to support Aria to leave the pantry, which irritated Aria again. She couldn’t bear it and pushed Elena away again once they left other colleagues.

Aria was suffering the pain on her chest and her headache. “Elena, just wait, I will make you pay back!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Great!” Elena smiled and said, “Tell Emma that I won’t let her go too if she tries to bother me again.”

She was nice but not weak. She wouldn’t be manipulated by anyone!

“Aha! You are just bluffing.” She growled a sarcastic reply and left resentfully. How could Elena ever compete with Emma? Though Elena was the daughter of Bush family, Emma was also Jeremy’s wife. Besides, could a shameful mistress beat the real wife?

Elena stared at Aria’s back with a cold look.

When Elena returned to the office, she received a big hug from Sophia, “Hey Elena, you are my idol!”

“What are you doing?” Elena laughed.

“I am praising you! You are amazing! You got back at Aria without getting hurt before everyone! Now all colleagues thought that Aria lost her mind and asked for trouble herself.”

“I just taught her what I learned from her.” Elena said indifferently.

However, though she won this time, it never meant that she could win easily next time.

“Elena,” Charlie turned up in front of her in a second and said with a cunning smile, “You performed a good play, which impressed me a lot!”

Elena complained, “shouldn’t you stand up and stop it? How can you stand by and enjoy the conflicts between employees? In my opinion, it’s your negligence, Sir.”

“Hey!” Charlie refused to accept the comment, “You know, I was helping you!”

“Well, you shouldn’t break your rule for me. Sir.” Elena continued.

Charlie couldn’t accept that. He just enjoyed a play, but was treated by Elena as if committing a crime. How could she talk like that!

Many colleagues saw their talking and thought Charlie was blaming Elena for what happened in the pantry, so they tried to explain to Charlie, telling him that it wasn’t Elena’s fault.

Now Charlie was really impressed by Elena’s ability! She was getting back at Aria on purpose! But everyone believed Aria looked for trouble and deserved it. He cleared his throat, “Fine, it’s over. Never again!”

Elena nodded and promised, “Sure.”

At this moment, the receptionist held a bunch of flowers and walked inside, “Elena, here’s something for you. Come and sign for it.”

Who sent it? Elena was confused and took the flowers anyway. The receptionist said with jealously, “Wow, 99 roses are so heavy! I am so tired holding them!”

“I’m sorry. And thank you.” Elena answered.

“Who sent them to you?” Sophia quipped，“My idol, Logan?”

Elena didn’t agree. In her point of view, Logan wouldn’t do such a boring thing, so the only possibility was...

Seeing the card from the flowers, she knew she was right. It was Jeremy.

“Jeremy?” Sophia looked at the card and found his name on it. “Why did he send the flowers to you?”

After all, Jeremy was married. Besides, Elena’s husband was Logan, her idol and the perfect man all women wanted to marry. Jeremy could never compare with him!

“Maybe he doesn’t want to give up.” Elena said.

Sophia was so curious about the gossip but Elena didn’t want to talk about it.

Elena stared at the card for a while and the next second, she wore a cunning smile. Emma cherished Jeremy most, didn’t she? In this case, a trick was formed in her mind.

At that moment, she received a message. “Did you receive my flowers? Do you like it? They traveled by air from abroad.”

It was an unknown number which called her several times before. And now she knew who it was.

“I like it very much, thank you.” She sent a message back.

Before getting her message, Jeremy thought Elena was unwilling to talk to him and would just ignored him as usual. So he was extremely excited to hear from her. Was she moved by his efforts?

“I am so glad you like it. From now on, I will send you flowers every day.”

However, Elena despised him even more. “I am afraid that Emma won’t be happy if she knows. You’d better send flowers to her, not to me.”

Now Jeremy just wanted Elena back and didn’t care about Emma. Knowing her concern, he called her immediately.

Elena hesitated for a while but answered the phone call, “Hello?”

“Ele…Elena!” He called her name passionately, and took a deep breath to relax himself, “It’s great to hear your voice! You answered my phone call eventually. Am I dreaming?”

She felt headache after hearing his words, “so what’s the matter?”

Her indifference disappointed him a little, but she answered and that was progress, right?

He continued, “Would you like to have a meal with me? It won’t take much time.”

“But...” Elena hesitated, pretending she was in a difficult position.

Jeremy said hurriedly, “Oh, right! Your company wanted to interview me, right? If you are the one to interview me, I am available all the time!”

“Great!” Elena threw the hesitation away and agreed quickly, “I guess Emma won’t get mad at me this time if she knows it’s all about work, right?”

“She got mad at you for seeing me?” Jeremy got the key words and felt so angry.

“No, no! She just…” She stammered as if looking for an excuse for Emma.

Jeremy was furious. No wonder Emma sent him away when Elena interviewed him last time. She aimed to make Elena lose her job and warn her!

“Elena, don’t worry about that. She will never know it. I will protect you whatever happens.”

Elena said in an innocent tone, “What are you saying? My brother-in-law, our meeting is just for work. I don’t need your protection.”

Jeremy felt a little hurt. So, he hurried to make the appointment with Elena and hung up.

Seeing everything was going on as she expected, Elena was quite happy. ‘Emma, you want to make trouble and let me suffer. I will remember this and take revenge on you. You want to use Aria to attack me? Then I will use your beloved man. Just wait and see who will win at last!’

With the appointment approaching, Elena held the flowers and stood up. She said to Sophia, “Could you tell chief-editor that there is no need to use Mrs. Smith’s interview. I have made an appointment with Jeremy and I’m going to interview him now.”

Sophia felt worried, “Would you like me to go with you? What if his wife appears? You will suffer!” Recalling Elena lying on the ground unconsciously, she was frightened.

But Elena gave her a smile and said confidently, “Take it easy. I will be fine. Who am I? I am Elena!”

Then she left the office determinedly, giving Sophia no chance to persuade her. She threw the roses into the trash can outside the building.

Roses? She had been with Jeremy for several years and he didn’t even know her favorite flower was magnolia.

She liked magnolia because it meant pure love...
