So Anna stayed and lived here. Mia was so upset about it. However, she had to accept it.
After dinner, while Mia was cleaning up, she pulled Elena aside and kept nagging, “Madam, you have to keep your eyes on Ms. Lee. She’s here coveting your husband.”
Elena was confused. Even Mia knew the past between Anna and Logan?
Mia continued, “At the very beginning, Ms. Lee and Logan did seem to be a perfect match, and their families have been friends generations after generations. So they naturally wanted to get married for strengthening the tie. Just while they were talking about the engagement, however, that accident happened to Logan and changed everything. After that, Ms. Lee found an excuse to go abroad.”
So, that was why Logan said he saw through everyone around him? Back then, he must feel hurt and helpless, so he got tougher and tougher in the end.
But Elena still comforted Mia, “Don’t worry, it’s just a couple of days. We’ll just send her home when the time comes.”
“It’d better be. I don’t trust her at all...” Mia said nervously.
Just at this moment, Elena heard someone was knocking on the kitchen door and when she turned around, she found that Anna was standing behind them with a smile. And she heard Anna said, “Elena, I forgot to bring my pajamas. Would you please lend me one of yours?”
“Sure, there are new ones right in the wardrobe of my bedroom.” Elena answered casually. She was busy washing the dishes.
Mia was alert. She wiped her hands and said, “I’ll help you find it. Or you may cause a mess.”
Anna parted her lips, but eventually she didn’t say anything and had to listen to Mia. She followed Mia upstairs.
Logan went straight back to the bedroom as soon as he finished his online meeting. But someone was clearly taking a shower in the bathroom. He thought it was Elena and didn’t pay much attention.
But when the bathroom door opened, Anna came out and she smelled just like rose petals.
Anna seemed to be startled by Logan and let out a scream immediately. But the next moment, she composed herself and said coquettishly, “When did you come in? I didn’t even hear you.”
Noticing Logan’s stare, Anna covered her flushed face and explained, “I didn’t...so I borrowed Elena’s pajama, but I didn’t expect that...”
Nice try, but Logan didn’t believe her at all. He kept silent for a while and then he said in a completely chilling voice, “Why are you here? Mia must have prepared a guest room for you.”
“Well...” Anna hesitated for a while and then continued, “The water wasn’t warm in my bathroom, so I borrowed yours. You don’t like it?”
“Get the hell out of here!”
“But Logan...”
Anna looked at his cold face. She lowered down and grabbed his hand, “Logan, I know you still care for me, right?”
Logan pushed her away at once, “Who told you I still cared for you, huh?” Her falling to the ground still failed to win any of his compassion.
Apparently, Logan didn’t know that Elena was there, either. Recalling the things just happened, Logan wasn’t so happy for her to witness. “What did you hear?”
“Well...everything?” Elena was a little awkward.
Again, Logan put on a long face. He wanted to protect her from all these nasty stuff.
“Come over.” Logan said to Elena.
Elena slowly came to him and said, “What? You still remember me with this beautiful and charming Anna by you side?”
Logan bit her neck gently, smelling her unique fragrance, “Can’t you tell that I am trying to make you happy?”
“I can’t.” She bit her lips, “Did you use to make her happy? Like you are doing to me now?”
“Of course not. This is only for you.” His voice was soft and who could imagine he was so cold just now?
Elena snorted, “I don't believe it. Men always like beautiful women!”
Logan laughed, and he could just say, “Even if it is true, you are the only beauty in my eyes.”
