Chapter301 Long Time No See
Long Time No See
Logan took a deep breath and then squeezed her face, “Don’t be so sad. I’ve got everything under my control. So, there’s no need to flap. Trust me!”
Elena was captivated by his firm eyes when he said that.
Staring at him, she was jolted for a while. Then he kissed her lips tenderly, trying to comfort her. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Don’t worry. Trust me.”
She blinked her eyes and felt she was relieved for no apparent reason. And her fear was dissipated as dark clouds.
“OK.”
Smiling, Logan stroked her face fondly, “That’s my girl.”
She pouted and burrowed her face into his chest quietly.
Jacob saw Elena had calmed down, so he asked, “Mr. Brown, where shall we go now?”
“To the hospital, for antenatal care.” Logan lifted his piercing eyes and glanced at Jacob, which somehow made him nervous.
Puzzled by his word, Elena raised her head and asked, “We are really going to the hospital? What I just said was to reassure Sophia.”
Logan smiled at her and gave her cheek a playful squeeze. But she felt a pain on her cheek when he touched her with his callous fingers. Her face crinkled. Then she grabbed his hand and asked, “I’ve been curious about the callus on your fingers. You are just holding your pen when you’re writing. Why are your fingers so callous? I thought only your forefinger would have callus if you wrote.”
Logan took back his hand and then held her hand, “I joined a calligraphy club when I was in the college. The callus was because of the practice.”
“I see.” Elena nodded her head and understood why his fingers were so callous.
“Why do you suddenly think of that?”
“Because of my curiosity.” Elena looked at him with her eyelashes fluttering, “You should know that women are more curious than any others, so it’s not surprising that my curiosity is aroused by some trivialities.”
Frowning, Logan wanted to say something. But they had arrived at the hospital.
Jeff did not expect they would come. And he thought they came here because something went wrong with Logan’s legs. Before he came to Logan and had a look at his legs, Jacob stopped him and reminded, “It’s time for Mrs. Brown’s antenatal care.”
Then Jeff knew why they were here. He gave an embarrassed smile, “OK, there are only a few people. Mrs. Brown can have antenatal care immediately.”
The baby was about eight weeks old. And they could see a vague outline now, so Jeff helped them to recognize its figure.
Elena was beaming, “So… This is our baby?”
Jeff smiled at her, “Right. Your baby looks good now. It must be a healthy baby after it is born in this case.”
“Thanks.”
“Nothing.” Jeff looked at Logan, “Mr. Albert is coming here today, do you want to meet him? Your legs need a checkup.”
Although the operation was a successful one and he was well on the way to recovery, he should still be careful.
“OK.”
Jeff was surprised. Logan lifted his eyes and said impassively, “Where is him?”
Jeff stopped thinking immediately. He smiled, “I didn’t expect that you would say yes so quickly. After all, it was an taboo subject in the past, no one could…”
He did not finish his sentence, but Logan flicked a cold glare at him and stopped him.
“Nothing. I’m just a bit surprised.” He asked casually and did not think Logan would agree at first. “I’m going to make the arrangement since you’ve agreed. He got off the plane an hour ago, so he should be here now.”
“OK.”
Logan nodded slightly. Then someone approached with firm steps and stopped in front of them.
Albert was still amiable. He patted on Logan’s shoulder and had a look at him. “It seems that you’ve made a good recovery.”
“Thanks to you.”
“Well, I’m Albert!” Self-assured, he said with pride.
Seeing that, Elena could not help smiling.
Then Albert noticed her and turned around, “Hello, Elena. Long time no see.”
“Not really. It has only been a month.”
“No, no, no.” Albert shook his head, “There’s a saying that one day apart seems like three seasons. In this way, we haven’t seen each other for a lot of seasons…”
Albert was speaking, but then he felt someone was glaring him coldly, which made him shudder. He looked at Logan and found that Logan was staring at him with a thin smile, which was quite terrifying.
Albert shrugged, “I haven’t met you for a long time. Elena is still gorgeous, and you are still so petty.”
“I hope you will still be nonchalant as you are now after you get married.”
“Of course I will. I don’t mind it.”
Logan raised his eyebrows, with an expectant look.
Jeff saw they kept talking. Then he found an opportunity to cut in, “Mr. Albert, Logan is about to have a checkup. You may find out whether he has fully recovered.”
“OK, get ready then.” Albert said.
Then Jeff went away to get prepared immediately. Logan followed behind him. And Elena waited outside the door quietly. After a while, Jacob brought her a glass of hot milk to warm her.
“Thanks.” She gave him a smile and took the glass.
Jacob smiled as well and said, “You’re welcome, Mrs. Brown. In fact, I should apologize. If I came with you today, there would be no problem.”
Elena held the glass stiffly after she heard that. She lifted her head in puzzlement and saw Jacob was consumed with guilt.
“No!” She explained hurriedly, “You have nothing to do with this. We’ve all prepared for that. But no one ever thinks she would take the action so quickly. So, never mind. It’s not your fault.”
“But if I were there, I would keep an eye on the car. Then no one would approach.”
Elena was a bit vexed by his stubbornness, “But if you were there, you might not be able to handle everything. Besides, she would come to us next time if she did not succeed today.”
At some point, he had nothing to do with that, so he was not the one who was to blame.
“Mrs. Brown…”
Jacob still tried to say something, but Elena interrupted his words abruptly, “Jacob, listen. You have nothing to do with that, don’t worry it too much.”
“I see.” He lowered his head in dismay.
Elena sighed deeply, “Jacob, you are only a human, not a god. You can’t guarantee that you can keep us from the danger for sure. And you can’t just think about how to protect us twenty-four seven. So, don’t blame yourself too hard.”
Jacob was jolted. He stared at her for a while and then he was finally relieved, “Yes, Mrs. Brown. I know.”
“OK.”
Elena breathed a sigh with relief secretly. Nevertheless, it was a good thing that he could understand what she said.
When they were talking, Jacob’s phone rang briskly. Then he hid his guilt and answered the phone. But he was stunned, “You’ve found the criminal?”
