Chapter 17 Wanting You
Chapter 17 Wanting You
Elena couldn't help but burst out laughing just as the words were out of her mouth. Jacob cleverly left the two alone and went downstairs.
Logan looked at her calmly, "What interview?"
"Our company became known for Shirley’s matter recently, so it wants to take advantage of this time and do a few interviews with influential people."
Elena explained, adding at the end, "Of course, it's okay if you don't want to. Our company has also arranged an interview with Daisy."
"So, what are you willing to offer me for this interview?" He raised his eyebrows, a smile deepening under his eyes.
Elena didn’t understand, "You mean... money?"
Logan glanced at her. Did she think he was short of money?
She asked, "Well, you're not short of anything. So what else do you want?"
"I want you."
"That's easy. Our magazine..." Before Elena could finish her words, she immediately sensed something was wrong, "Wh... What?"
The man looked at her with his dark and soft eyes, saying with unmistakable clarity, "I said that I want you."
"What do you want from me? What do I have?" She looked bewildered.
Logan supported his forehead helplessly, suddenly wondering if she was pretending to be muddled. But her look was so sincere and she didn’t look like pretending anything, which made him even more confused.
"Elena." He called her name softly. His hand caressed her cheek gently. The slapping mark on her face had already disappeared. "If I say I will agree if you kiss me now, will you say yes?"
Suddenly! Elena's face went red, and finally caught on to his meaning, "I... You, what are you babbling about?"
The anxious and flustered look was really cute, so he couldn't help but chuckle, "I promise you that I'll arrange the interview."
"Really!?" Elena was instantly overwhelmed with joy, and what had happened just now was put behind her back. She couldn't help but hug him tightly, "Logan, you're so sweet!"
Logan's body stiffened for a moment, and a bigger smile couldn't help but show on his face.
Was he sweet? He thought those were the most naive words in the world.
Elena hugged him for a moment, quickly realized that something was wrong and hastily released him by excusing, "I'll go down and see what Mia's cooking! You get back to work!"
With that, she disappeared quickly.
Logan shook his head helplessly and looked dotingly at the departing figure's back.
Elena wanted to tell Sophia the news right away so that she wouldn't have to feel sad. But then she thought if she did, she would expose their relationship. Anyway, it would be just as well for Coral to contact Jacob when the time came.
When Elena came downstairs, Mia happened to be answering the phone. She saw her come down with a happy face, "Madame, it's for you."
"Who's that?" Elena picked up the phone, "Hello."
"Elena, you went too far in bullying others."
Elena had just put her ear to the phone when Emma’s voice suddenly shrieked.
Elena pursed her lips, "What's wrong?"
"What happened to Shirley, you did that, right? Do you know you ruined the future of a great singer? She was so good. How could you do this?"
So Emma called to make a punitive expedition against her. Elena bristled, "I don't know when you got so nosy. First was about Olivia, and now Shirley."
"How dare you say that? If it wasn't for you, they wouldn't have even come to me!" Emma gritted her teeth in exasperation.
"This whole thing was caused by Shirley trying to get back at me for her sister. I wouldn't have done it so relentlessly if she hadn't been nagging at me."
"In that case, she knew she was wrong now. But you have gone too far!"
Elena resisted the urge to hang up the phone, "What are you trying to say?"
"Withdraw all the news about Shirley and the matter will be treated as if it never happened. Also, you stop resorting to the court!"
"Are you having fun?" Elena got a cold face, "Do you really care about them? You just want to use them. And you've come over to remind me many times and kept warning me. Why do you think I will
always have to listen to you and be trampled under your feet!"
Emma was annoyed when her intention was found, "What are you babbling about? I was just trying to help them out of sympathy!"
"You know it the best. There is no turning back, and I will not retract any messages. What will happen is their fate." Elena said indifferently.
"Elena, don't you have any guilt?"
"Sorry, no!" Without mercy, Elena directly hung up the phone, turning to talk to Mia who had stood aside, "Mia, from now on, you can hang up Emma’s phone directly and don't need to ask me to answer."
Mia nodded, "Yes, Madam."
Elena hung up the phone with pleasure, while Emma was furious and smashed all the things in the house. The butler came over to stop her, "Miss, please stop for a while. You have smashed many antiques that the master likes!"
"Get out! Get the hell out of here!"
"Miss!"
"I told you to get lost! Have you heard? I'll be hard on you if you stop me again!" Emma hurled a pillow at the butler. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Instead of the butler, the one who was hit was another tall figure.
Jeremy sulked, "Emma, what are you making a scene about!"
Emma saw Jeremy and instantly looked like she had seen a savior, dropping what she was holding and jumping into his arms at once, "Jeremy, I'm furious. Elena is practically climbing on top of me. Jeremy, you have to do something for me!"
"What's going on? How am I supposed to know if you don't tell me?"
"It's because of Olivia. I came to her and told her to forgive Olivia. But she didn't listen to me, and even got back at Shirley. Don't you think she's going too far?"
Jeremy's face grew darker. The story had been going around the internet for a long time, and everyone knew exactly how it started.
"Emma, enough!"
"Jeremy... How do you?" Emma was pushed away and looked at him confused, "Aren't you supposed to help me? Now what do you mean by that?"
"Come on, I know all the things, so stop your nonsense. I told you that Olivia approached you just to take advantage of you. Do you really think she genuinely considers you as a friend? I hate such hypocritical people most!"
The truth that Jeremy didn't hesitate to reveal made Emma turn sad and stare at him in disbelief, "Jeremy, what did you say?"
