Chapter 115 Anna still followed
What Logan said made Elena confused. But since he wouldn’t tell her, she decided not to ask, either. Soon she forgot about it.
On this day, they were going to visit Grandpa George and have a gathering in the Brown’s villa. When Elena arrived with Logan, she thought that Grandpa George was the only reason why she would step into this house again.
After they got off, Grandpa George welcomed them warmly with Pigeon. He smiled happily and said, “Finally you two are here. I have been waiting for so long that I start to doze off!”
Elena walked to Grandpa George, “I told you to wait for us inside, right? It’s getting cold. What are you doing here?”
“Because I miss you two so much!” Grandpa George laughed and then took them into the house.
In the living room, Yolanda was eating snacks. As she saw Logan and Elena, she greeted in a low voice, “Hi, Logan. Hi, Elena.”
Grandpa George looked at her and showed his unpleasantness, “Logan offered you a chance to work in his company and you quit within less than 15 days. He had to find someone else to fix you mess.”
Yolanda was a little embarrassed and didn’t say anything. But Jacqueline quickly tried to defend her daughter, “It’s so easy to hire a person to work in the warehouse. But you know Yolanda, right? We are family. Yet Logan sent her to work in the warehouse. I’m wondering if Logan was trying to torture his younger sister!”
“She came to work not for fun!” Grandpa George was getting more furious.
Cornel sensed the tense atmosphere and smiled, “Alright, Logan is here and he doesn’t say anything yet. Why are you guys keeping talking about the old story?”
“Grandpa, forget it. I’ve never expected much of her.” Logan parted his lips and said.
Hearing this, Jacqueline was immediately unhappy. But she had to put on a smile, “Right, you are right. Yolanda has been so naughty all the time.”
Yolanda looked at her mother in a disgruntled way. It was enough for her to be scolded by Logan, but why would her mother blame her, too?
At this moment, the door bell rang. Jacqueline quickly smiled and said, “It must be the Lees! I’ll open the door for them.” She was being so enthusiastic as if she was more excited to see the Lees than Logan and Elena. Or maybe she was.
Elena and Logan looked at each other, feeling confused. Apparently, they didn’t expect it. Why would the Lees come here today?
Soon, Jacqueline held Anna’s hand and walked into the house. “Anna, my babe, you finally arrived. I have been waiting for you for the whole morning.”
Anna smiled sweetly, “We are late because of my mommy. She took so much time to prepare herself. She also made great efforts to pick the bests gift for you. She had changed her mind so many times that she didn’t even notice that it was late.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Lee explained, “Well, you know. Anna said she hadn’t visited Grandpa for a long time and wanted to show her best look today. That was why we were late.”
“Mommy!” Anna blushed.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee stopped laughing and joking after a while and then they came to Logan with guilt written on their faces.
Mrs. Lee looked at Elena from head to toe and then said, “You must be Logan’s wife, right? You are nice and pretty. I like you already.”
“Thank you so much, Mrs. Lee. I’m really honored.” Elena smiled, standing behind Logan.
Humph, Yolanda never thought Elena was nice. She scorned and came up to Mrs. Lee and Anna on purpose. “Hey, Anna, it’s been so long since we met last time. I miss you so much!”
Anna looked at her and gave her a gift, a bottle of perfume. She held Yolanda’s hand and smiled, “I know you will like it. I bought it in France especially for you. It’s fabulous and I really love it. But I still want you to have it.” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Yolanda was overwhelmed by happiness. She looked at the perfume carefully and shouted, “Oh gosh, it’s the limited edition! I begged so many friends to do me this favor but I still couldn’t get it. I was so upset and I thought I should go and buy it by myself at the very beginning. I didn’t expect that...” she continued, “Anna, I know you are my best friend!”
“Sure, after all, we grew up together.” Anna noticed that Jacqueline showed her envy for just one moment. Then she quickly took out another exquisite bag to her and said, “Aunt Jacqueline, this is for you!”
“I have a gift?” Jacqueline said in surprise.
“Of course!” Anna handed it to her right away.
Jacqueline couldn’t help praising Anna, “Anna, you are so sweet and you are just like a little angel who brings us gifts. Unlike someone else who just walked into the house with empty hands.”
Everyone knew she was referring to Logan and Elena.
Logan just smiled and decided to ignore her. While Jacob came up to him and asked, “Sir, should I bring the gifts here from the car now?”
“Yeah, just put them in grandpa’s room.” Elena answered and then turned to Grandpa George, “Grandpa, Logan bought a lot of supplements for your specific needs, and there are some instruments for you to do exercise. We will ask people to install them in your room, and don’t worry. They will not take up too much space.”
“It’s so nice of you.” Grandpa George smiled happily.
Jacqueline’s face turned pale all of a sudden. Now she felt embarrassed.
So what? Yolanda let go of Anna’s hand and went up to Elena. “Elena, then where are my gift and my mom’s? and what did you prepare for dad?”
“Sorry, I only prepared gifts for Grandpa.” Although Elena said ‘sorry’, but she didn’t seemed to really mean it.
So Yolanda thought she got the chance to make Elena embarrassed. She continued, “Elena, how can you act like this? You don’t give us gifts because you never think we are your families, too?”
Elena frowned and retorted calmly, “Since we are family, I didn’t bring you the gifts like treating a guest. Besides, what did you prepare for Logan and me? Or you just want gifts like a child?”
The word ‘guest’ sounded so harsh to Anna, and she clenched her fists.
Logan looked at Elena dotingly. He really liked it when Elena defended herself and looked so smart and strong.
“I...I didn’t mean that. I just think that it’s not fair. You just respect Grandpa while ignoring us.”
Elena smiled and said, “Grandpa is our senior. Of course we should always care about him.”
Yolanda knew she failed again in the round. Elena was too smart and knew exactly how to manipulate people with her words. She was never that kind or nice! But Yolanda wouldn’t give up. She gritted her teeth and knew she would get back one day. She must!
