Presiden's wild wife

Chapter316 The Harbinger



The Harbinger

Elena laughed out, “Just treasure what you have.”

Sophia hugged Elena warmly, “Yeah, I know. Elena, so you’re asking us to go?”

“No. You’re here anyway. Just stay.”

“Well,” Chuckling, Sophia joked with her, “I know you will lend me a hand when I’m in dire need of your help.”

“You’re exaggerating, right?” It was just a meeting of their parents. In fact, Elena was a bit envious of her.

Sophia still did not take it seriously. “You can’t feel the nervousness as I do. You will understand my feelings when you go through that.”

Elena was jolted. “I might have to wait for a very long time if I want to understand.”

When she became someone’s mother, perhaps she would meet the parents of her daughter-in-law or son-in-law.

It suddenly occurred to Sophia that she might have reminded Elena of her sad memories, so she explained immediately, “No, that’s not what I mean. Don’t Get me wrong.”

“Nothing, I do not take it personally.” Elena patted Sophia on her head, “Go get some rest. You’d had a heavy day.”

Sophia bit her lower lip and looked at Elena carefully to see if Elena was upset. But Elena was smiling, and she looked like she really did not care.

“Right. Your whole body is cold. Have a hot bath. I will tell our parents we won’t come home tonight.”

Zach rubbed Sophia’s shoulders and took her to an empty bedroom.

Elena looked a bit downcast. Logan tapped her on her head, “What are you thinking? I’m still here by your side.” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Elena lifted her head in astonishment and found Logan was gazing at her fondly.

Elena saw he raised his eyebrows, pouting. “Right, you’re with me. But you’ve got much more admirers now.”

His face cracked into a smile when he saw she was feeling jealous. He touched her face with his big hands, “You’ve wronged me.”

“Have I?” Elena blinked her eyes, “But the way Anna looked you told me that she wanted you badly.”

“I don’t see her looking at me.” Logan said innocently.

“You must be lying.”

Logan squinted his eyes and then stretched his arms to encircle her waist, “Then, Mrs. Brown, tell me how she looked at me.”

“I…”

Her lips were slightly parted. “How can I describe it?”

She was not a witch, and she could not reproduce what had happened. Moreover, it was more of her “six sense”. Anna did not say clearly that she was crazy about him.

“So, she’s not my admirer. You wrong me.” Logan was good at playing the innocent, and Elena almost believed him.

She rounded her beautiful eyes, “You are evading the point!”

“Yeah.”

Logan nodded and then scooped her up when she still wanted to argue. Elena screamed in shock, “What are you doing?”

“It’s getting chilly.”

Logan seemed serious.

But Elena was bemused, “Does the weather have anything to do with this?”

“It is said that one’s wife can keep his bed warm. So, I need you when it’s cold.”

“What?”

Elena was still in a puzzlement. Logan saw her look and knocked her forehead slightly with his head, “You fool. Still don’t get it?”

Elena shook her head quietly.

Logan sighed with resignation, “Mrs. Brown, it’s late. You should have a rest now. Just pretend nothing happens today.”

Elena thought about what he had said carefully, and then she knew what he meant. She rubbed his cheeks, “You’re trying to change the subject, right?”

Logan gave a cough in an unnatural way and nodded, “In some way.”

Elena was glum with a pout.

While they were speaking, Logan opened the door of their bedroom and put her on the bed, “So, my lady, shall we take a rest now?”

“I haven’t showered.”

“I’ll help you.”

“You jerk!” Elena looked like a startled baby dear, “Don’t be like that.”

His gaze roamed over her on purpose, which made Elena blushed. “Don’t think you can make me forget about Anna in this way. I still keep that in my mind.”

Logan felt a twinge in his head, “Why do you so care about an unimportant woman?”

“All the women who try to hit on you are important.” Elena said earnestly.

Anna was her rival! Anna might steal Logan from her if she did not take it seriously. How could she ignore such a woman easily?

Logan laughed in his deep voice, “OK. Then remember – when I meet those women, please remind me to stay away from them.”

He was quite serious, so Elena suddenly failed to retort. But her face flushed in anger. Logan would echo her words and agree with her no matter what she said, which made her feel she was venting her anger and jealousy for nothing. It was unpleasant at all.

“Alright. Don’t be so upset. Take care of yourself.” Logan poked her in her angry face.

Elena’s anger dissipated eventually. Then she laughed out suddenly and stood on the bed to look into his eyes face to face.

She never compared their heights. Now, to her surprise, she found that he was much taller than her…

Her eyes came to rest on his legs, with her ruby lips curving in a smile. “Logan, although you’ve got a lot of admirers now, I still really like you.”

“Why?”

“Because you can lift me anytime, and I can lean myself against you to vent my feelings.”

Instead of curling up in his arms.

Logan felt his heart was melted. Before he knew it, he found he had held her into his arms.

“If you wish, I will hug you like this for the rest of my life.”

“But you don’t have the strength to hold me when you’re old.”

“I will still hold you sitting in my wheelchair. If you are too old to walk, I’ll hold your hand…”

Elena tried imagining what he had depicted and then gave a shudder. Somehow, she was unable to visualize that, so she shook her head quickly and stopped thinking about it. Then she gave a smile, “Alright.”

It was the most romantic thing that one could grew old with her lover.

And luckily, her lover was willing to be with her to the end of their lives.

As the evening wore on, the wind was gusting. Elena looked out the window and found the dark clouds were gathering, as a harbinger of storm. There was an uncomfortable silence, which unnerved her. She felt like her heart was also filled with those dark clouds.

Logan held her face into his chest quietly, speaking, “Don’t worry. I’ll be with you no matter what happens.”
