Presiden's wild wife

Chapter 19 Sense of Shame

Jeremy curled his lips and was in pain, "Am I no longer supposed to care about you now?"

"No!" Elena shook her head without hesitation, "Your choice is Emma, and it's her you should care about. What does it have to do with me?"

The only connection between them was broken completely long ago. He now came over here and pretended to be kind, which was disgusting!

"What about Logan! What's so great about him? He's a cripple and can't do anything. What has he ever done except just hiding in that old mansion?" Jeremy couldn't help but recall what had happened earlier at the restaurant. It was their favorite restaurant, but then why? Why had she brought a stranger there and forcibly occupied the place that belonged to them?

The more he thought about it, the more it felt like a stone was blocked in his heart. It drove him mad with jealousy!

Elena averted her eyes, "He's him, and not like you."

"Why?" Jeremy grabbed her hand again with agitation, his tall body pinning her against the wall so she had nowhere to run, "What's the difference between us? Elena, divorce him. He can't protect you, as evidenced by what happened to Shirley. He had done nothing for you!"

Elena’s face turned red with anger and she tried hard to push him away, but the difference in strength between men and women was too great to offset.

A sarcastic smile showed on her face as she heard Jeremy saying the unclear words, "Divorce?

And then what?"

"I can protect you!" He said it with conviction.

"What about Emma?" Elena's words suddenly reminded him that he still had Emma...

Elena's smile grew colder, "Jeremy, did Emma indulge you so much that you are greedy enough to want two girlfriends?"

Having two girlfriends? He was dreaming!

"I..." Jeremy froze, staring at her in awe.

"Let go of me! Go hug your Emma and don't run up to me with this crazy talk. I'm married! 'Future brother-in-law', please behave yourself!" Taking advantage of his lapse in concentration, Elena didn't hesitate to push him away and escape his grip.

She was about to flee when she unexpectedly bumped into a figure head-on, and the familiar smell of perfume ran through her nose.

"Jeremy, what are you doing here?" Emma was sullen and plucked a hard look at Elena, stomping on her heels and rushing over to Jeremy to question him.

"Emma?" Jeremy couldn't believe it, "How did you get here?"

"If I don't come, how can I know that you're hooking up with her behind my back!"

Jeremy's face was ghastly pale, "Emma, you misunderstood. I just stopped by to check on her injuries, and you knew she was slapped before."

She misunderstood? Emma's eyes seemed to pop out because of anger. When she came over to Elena, she was told by her colleague that a man was looking for her. And she would never believe this man was Jeremy unless she had seen him herself. But now that she had seen it with her own eyes. Did he think a misunderstanding would just explain it?

"Check on her? Shirley has been so miserable now because of her, and maybe she’s fairly happy!"

Elena gritted her teeth secretly, disgusted with Jeremy. If he didn't come and get caught by Emma, she wouldn't be get into this trouble.

"Emma, that's enough!" Jeremy cooled his face, "I said that matter had passed. Why did you still bring it up? Besides, Elena is your sister, and I just came over to take a look."

Emma clenched her fist and raised her hand to slap him without hesitation, "You came to see her?

I'm afraid you want to rekindle your past romance!"

Jeremy's cheek was punched so hard that everyone could clearly hear the slapping sound. Emma was startled and immediately withdrew her hand, not knowing what to do, "I, I didn't mean to."

"Let's go home." Jeremy took a deep breath and put his arm around her shoulders.

Emma subconsciously pushed him away and looked at Elena with hatred, "Elena, you're my sister all right. But you're delusional if you want to take Jeremy away! He's mine! You're already married to someone else, and you can't be together anymore!"

"Emma! I said it's not what you think." Jeremy explained anxiously.

Elena just raised her eyes and glanced at her, "Then you’d better watch your man and not go crazy at my company."

"You..." Emma stomped her foot in exasperation. Those words clearly meant that it was Jeremy who wanted to rekindle the past romance and she wasn't interested at all.

Elena was very happy to see her angry look. As if she was trying to upset her, she slowly came forward and whispered in her ear, "Are you afraid I'll steal him? Don't be afraid, it's just a reach-me-down I don't

want. You're my elder sister, and I'll let you have it if you want."

"Bitch!" Emma gritted her teeth and tried to give her a slap to wake her up. Before she could throw her hand, Elena caught it in the air, whose strength was unexpectedly strong, "The word ‘bitch’, I return to you with every letter!"

With that, she let go and easily pushed her into Jeremy's arms with playful sarcasm, "I beg you two. Don't come into my company for nothing. I can't help but think of the previous scenes when I see you, and I'm so afraid of staining my eyes!"

Emma was enraged again, but luckily Jeremy was quick to stop her, "Emma, that's enough. Let's go."

"Jeremy, you piece of shit!" She was almost exasperated to death and stomped hard on his leather shoes. She glared at Elena and walked away quickly while he held his leg and cried out in pain. Then Jeremy followed Emma and left with her.

Elena glanced at Jeremy's back, without any emotion in her eyes. Did they come over purely to go crazy today? Anyone slapped for no reason would be unhappy, not to mention, slapped by Emma!

As she was thinking, there was a resounding clap from behind. A pair of bright eyes darkened for a moment. Was there someone else?

Turning around, she bumped into Aria's teasing eyes, "I didn't expect to see such a wonderful play."

Elena pursed her lips, "What did you see?"

"Nothing. I just didn't know you looked frail and weak, but in fact a ruthless woman. It’s no wonder that Shirley can't beat you."

"..."

Seeing her silence, Aria thought she was right, and said with contempt, "You are married but still have emotional entanglement with other people's boyfriends. It’s no wonder she came to give you trouble. Besides, that person is even your sister. What a strange hobby you have!"

What was Aria talking about? Elena was not sure how long Aria had heard their conversation. But she now seemed to be criticizing her.

"Shouldn't you worry about the interview with Mr. Brown right now? How can you eavesdrop on other people’s life?" She grinned harmlessly.

Aria spat at her, "Your shameless manner is disgusting, and your sister is really unlucky!" Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Whatever you think." She didn't have intentions to explain it to her either.

The indifferent attitude made Aria even more disgusted, "Don't you have any sense of shame?"

Elena smiled slightly, "If I have time to care about this, then I might as well think more about how to deal with Daisy. You can stay here if you like, and I'll go back to my office and pack up my things to go off work."

"Humph! I don't think you'll be able to be complacent for long." Aria rolled her eyes.

Elena felt so unlucky. It was not long before she made an enemy, who was even her superior. She didn't know if that was good or bad.

Elena had just packed her things to go downstairs when she got Logan's message. Her steps stopped for a moment before speeding up. Was he downstairs from the office? When?

She had just left the building when she saw a silver grey Bentley parked far by the side of the road. Then she jogged to open the door and get in.

Elena took a few slight breaths and looked aside at the man, "What brings you here?"

"I figure out what time you get off work and come to pick you up." Logan took a bottle of mineral water besides, opened it and handed it to her. Elena took a large gulp, "Thanks."

"Should we go back, sir?" Jacob asked and when he heard 'okay', he started the car.

Elena glanced at Logan and couldn't help but think what Sophia had been whispering in her ear all day. How could this man pull himself together so quickly after that accident?

"Am I good-looking?" Logan looked over and their sights collided. He smiled and teased.

"Huh?" Elena hastily averted her sight, "Not, not bad."

"Want to look closer?"

"What?" She was uncertain, and the latter reached out and took her hand in his, smirking "You have got my permission and can take a closer look."

Her small body was pulled into his arms and they huddled together, their breaths becoming ruffled.

Elena blushed. How did she just end up in his arms? This happened so quickly. But she certainly was getting used to his arms.

"Enough. That’s enough..." Elena blushed and stepped back a little, "Enough of looking..."

The stammering words made her want to shut up. What was this about? Why did she blush and stammer? When she met him, she seemed not to be herself.

With a smirk in his eyes, Logan added, "You can look at me in a poised manner whenever you want, and there is no need to peek."

Elena held her breath and tried to retort, but it was a shame that he was right!

On the other side, leaving the Green-light Magazine building, Sophia happened to be following Elena and saw her get into the car and couldn't help but chant out, "Wow! That must be Elena's husband. How nice of him to pick her up!"

As it happened, Aria heard it clearly and glanced at the Bentley, with a flash of rejection in her eyes. She thought Elena looked like nothing more than a woman who fawned upon rich and powerful people!
