Chapter 210

“Since the fake news is fading away, the conference isn't necessary. But I will make a statement.” Logan answered mildly.

Elena nodded. She decided not to worry about it anymore.

Logan patted her head gently, “I know you have gone through a lot lately. You should take a break. I’ll go to work by myself, you don’t have to accompany me. I’ll be back soon.”

“No, I don’t need a break.” She shook her head, trying to cheer herself up, “I am not tired. But you look tired. You are the one who should take a break. Well, did the doctor say you need the bandage changing?”

Logan frowned. He nearly forgot that. Elena pulled his arm, “You should stay at home and take a rest. I’ll go to the office and help you handle things.

What’s more, Jacob can help me. You don’t need to worry.”

“Well, then both of us should stay at home.” After thinking for a while, he made the decision.

Elena looked at him. Logan asked her to sit on the couch. “Well, I find it inappropriate for me to change bandage in the office. So let’s stay at home.

And you can help look after me.”

“Mr. Brown!” Elena sighed, “You’re so changeable.”

Logan gave her a glance, “Yes, I am. Any question?”

Logan insisted to stay at home with her. “He must worry that I will become the gossip topic in the office because of the news.’ Elena thought.

At last, they stayed at home. The doctor came to change the bandage for Logan and soon he left.

She looked at the thick bandage, feeling sullen, “Why did he wrap you with so many layers of bandage? I am afraid it won’t do good to your wound!”

“Honey, don’t worry.”

Elene was still upset. She tried so hard to stop herself from taking the bandages away from his back.

Mason had received a call from Jacob who urged him to make his own choice. One was to send Emma back to the mental hospital; the other was to let her take her punishment. Both were not good choices, but he had to pick one of them.

Emma happened to see Mason while going downstairs. She smiled happily, “Dad, what’s wrong? You look upset. Do stocks decline again?”

“No, not exactly. Nothing.” Mason forced himself to smile.

Emma didn’t care. She nodded and said, “I am so hungry now. Could you please urge the maid to cook for me? I am starving!” Mason told her that the maid was cooking and the meal was ready very soon.

Only Mason and Emma were sitting at the big table in the large dining room. It was a bit too silent. But Emma didn’t seem to realize it, enjoying her meal so much.

Mason didn’t have a good mood to eat. He looked at Emma and asked, “Do you know anything happening to Elena lately?"

“Elena? She is always good, isn’t she?” Emma showed no care to Elena. After a while, she added, reminding him, “Dad. She isn’t your biological daughter. And she doesn’t care about you at all. Why do you always worry about her? It’s none of your business, isn’t it?”

“Emma!”

“What? Am I wrong? Though you try so hard to help her, she doesn’t give a shit! Don’t waste your time, dad. Why not just focus on your own business?”

Mason was becoming furious because of her mean remarks. He couldn’t bear to listen more, “Then tell me now; do you have anything to do with what happened to Elena lately?”

Emma stopped eating, putting the folk on the table so rudely and starting yelling at him, “Dad! What are you talking about?! Are you doubting me?”

“Logan got the evidence! I have to admit it, though I don’t want to!”

“They are slinging mud at me!” Emma yelled even louder, “Again, it has nothing to do with me! It’s not my fault! I didn’t do anything! Don’t try to put that shit on me!”

“Emma...come on...you know the truth.”

Mason lowered his head guiltily, patting his thigh.

Emma raised her arm and showed the scar to him, “Dad. Look at that. I almost died! I won’t be stupid again or waste my life anymore! Why can’t you believe in me? At least, believe in me once...”

Mason was so shocked. The scar on her skin brought him back to the day when he saw Emma was lying in the pool of blood! He couldn’t help being terrified.

Emma started to cry with tears, “Dad, please. Don’t listen to the strangers. They are just trying to pit us against each other! Look at me! I am your daughter, the one you should believe in and care for in your life!”

“I am so sorry, Emma...” Mason took a deep breath, looking at her and saying in a low tone.

Emma didn’t know if he really felt sorry for her. The next second, she smelt a strange scent and it quickly made her lose consciousness.

Mason looked at Emma who was sleeping quietly at the table, saying to himself, “I want to believe in you. But...I can’t. Many things have happened lately. I don’t know whom I should trust now. Anyway, you can't stay here anymore.”

Sending her back to the mental hospital was the best way to protect her. If he hid her at home, Logan wouldn’t allow her to get away with it. He must send her to the police at last. Her future would be ruined if she got a criminal record!

After sending Emma to the mental hospital, Mason called Jacob and informed him. Jacob reported it to Logan at once. Logan wasn’t shocked or surprised about Mason’s decision.

Something occurred to Jacob so he added, “Sir, Mr. Scott wants to meet you.”

“Uncle Roger?”

“Yes. He just contacted me. I am sorry that I accept it on your behalf. I don’t know if I did the right thing...”

“It’s ok.” He nodded, “It’s good. I know he will meet me anyway. He must be worried about me.”

“Alright. Then I will ask Mr. Scott for the date and address of the appointment.”

Jacob took a breath of relief. He always respected Roger Scott. So no matter what he said, Jacob would agree. But afterward, he found that he should consider Logan’s schedule first.

Logan nodded, “Then make a plan. Send the date and address later. Let him know I will be there with Elena.”

“Yes, sir!”

Just after he hung up the phone, he got the message from Roger Scott. He seemed to be waiting for Jacob. He was so looking forward to the meeting.

The next day, Logan arrived at the restaurant with Elena on time. They happened to meet Roger at the gate. Roger showed his hospitality to them, patting Logan’s shoulder and looking at Elena kindly.

Roger laughed out loud, “Come on, don’t be a loon. It’s windy outside. Let’s get in.”

Then they all entered the restaurant. Jacob made their seats, then stood beside them quietly.
