Chapter 106 The bracelet
Elena looked at Logan’s smiling eyes, and a bad feeling occurred to her. As expected, Logan said with a smile, “Maybe, I get it…Daisy’s gift for David.”
He said in a low voice, but David and Daisy still got it. David couldn’t wait to know what it was, “So just tell me.”
Logon kept smiling, “You will know till it’s the right time. You know, it’s Daisy’s present. If I tell you in advance, I will ruin her surprise for you.”
Daisy was staring at him with anger, and then she turned to Elena, but Elena denied at once, “Come on, I didn’t tell a letter.”
Hearing her words, Daisy turned back to Logan, “Logan, you are my buster! It’s so unlucky to be your friend!”
He always knew her secrets, no matter how hard she tried to hide.
“It’s just a guess. I didn’t say anything.” He reminded her. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“But you know it, don’t you?” Daisy wouldn’t accept his comfort.
David was so confused. But no one would tell him what happened. And he was urged to go outside. He couldn’t do anything but gave Daisy a goodbye-kiss, “I’ll ask you when I am back.”
Daisy smiled and said, “You will know when you are back. You don’t have to ask me then.”
Elena admired her frankness. While Logan looked at her and said, “Well, my birthday is around the corner. Will you do something for me?”
“Your birthday?” Elena was surprised to know the fact.
Daisy added, “Yes! Don’t you know his birthday? It’s coming next month. I thought you knew it already.”
“In winter…” She didn’t say a word. He was born in winter. No wonder he was as cool as the iceberg, she thought.
Logan knew her so much and saw through her at once. “So you are imagining something bad about me, right?”
Elena was startled and denied in a hurry, “No, I am not!”
Daisy smiled, leaning on her, “Now that you know his birthday is coming, you should do something for him, shouldn’t you?”
Daisy was kidding her. But Elena remembered the sexy lingerie Daisy prepared for David, and her face was turning red because of shyness.
“Oh wow, what are you thinking? You look like a tomato! Are you thinking something…sexy?” Daisy spoke out loud. It was so funny to see Elena’s neck also getting pink.
Logan didn’t want Daisy keep making jokes on Elena. He stopped her in a serious tone, “Daisy, enough.”
Daisy scorned, “Come on, look at you! Over protective! I’m just joking.”
Actually Logan didn’t mind these jokes. But he knew Elena was always so sheepish. If he didn’t stop Daisy, maybe Elena would be mad at him at last.
David’s speech was nearly over. So Daisy went out with them two. David was a handsome and charming guy, which attracted so many females. Elena wanted to tease her by making a joke. So she asked Daisy, “Are you jealous? So many women are coveting David.”
Daisy didn’t show her unpleasantness, and said, “Humph! Come on, it’s not a big deal, OK? I won’t be jealous. Not at all.”
Elena couldn’t help laughing. What Daisy just said was obviously showing she was jealous, wasn’t she?
Emma happened to see Elena’s smiling face. She got so angry at once. She kept observing her for a while in the corner, and became even more jealous! She was feeling so tired because of pregnancy while Elena looked so stunning! She must tear Elena’s smile apart! Just when she noticed the silver bracelet on Elena’s wrist, a plan occurred to her. She walked towards Elena with complacence, and called her name, “Elena!”
Elena turned to her, and asked, “Yes?”
“Elena, you said you wouldn’t be dad’s daughter, right?” She tried to set her up.
“How is this your business?” Elena didn’t answer but asked her indifferently.
Emma was irritated by her attitude. “Of course it’s!” She pointed at Elena’s bracelet, “Dad told me that it was from mom. I should have it, not you!”
Elena gave a look at the bracelet.
Without hearing a word from Elena, Emma added, “Now that you admit you won’t have anything to do with our family, you should give it back to me. Though mom left it to you, you shouldn’t have it. So it should belong to me now.”
“In your dream!” Elena hid her hand behind her back, protecting the bracelet from Emma.
“Return it to me! Just do as I say! Or ...”
Elena was furious hearing Emma’s words. She said in a cruel tone, “Or what? Let me know what you are capable of.”
Emma was afraid of Logan, but she wouldn’t allow Elena to be happy like that. She didn’t give up on the bracelet. On the contrary, she went behind Elena and grabbed her hand, yelling nonstop, “This belongs to the Bushes. If you don’t give it back to me, then I will take it myself!”
Her sharp nails scratched Elena’s wrist and the bracelet was taken off by force. Elena’s skin was cut by her nails.
“Hum!” Emma put the bracelet on her wrist immediately, “Listen. I am pregnant. If you touch me, I will lie on the ground in no time. Let the reporters make the news.”
“Give it back to me!” Elena was so angry that her face was turning red.
“No way!”
Logan was irritated by Emma. He gave a glance to Jacob. Jacob could read his attempt from his eyes. So he wanted to take the bracelet back for Elena, but he never expected that she put it into her clothes, then she yelled, “Try touching me! Don’t you feel ashamed of yourself!”
“Jacob!” Logan said in an angry tone.
Emma was acting shamelessly that Elena couldn’t do anything to her. She stopped Logan, and said reluctantly, “Forget it. Just a bracelet. “
“But it is from your mother!”
“That’s my mother! She has no right to have it, for she has nothing to do with my family!” Emma retorted.
Elena clenched her fists angrily, but she didn’t say a word. She felt her treasure was taken away by force but she didn’t want to argue with Emma in David’s birthday party. So she just bit her bottom lip and said in a calm tone, “I’m fine. Let her take it.”
Now she really had nothing to do with the Bushes...
Emma smiled complacently. “Elena, remember the decision you made. And if you want to go back to our family in the future, I guarantee you I will make it impossible. You will never get a chance to stand beside us!”
Logan couldn’t bear her any more, “Jacob, get her out of here. She’s too noisy.”
“Why? I got invited here!” Emma cried aloud in protest.
“So what?” Daisy sneered and ordered, “I am the hostess of the party. Now, you get out of my place!”
