Chapter 401 It's better to be alive than to be dead
"Dad......
Elena broke away from Logan's hand to pluck away the crowd, "Dad, get up, it's okay."
"Jacqueline, Jacqueline......"
Cornel murmured, and Elena patted his face, looking somewhat helplessly at the man behind her.
Logan stepped forward and straightened him up and shoved him into the car, "Jacob, you take him back to the Browns, I'll handle this side myself, and, notify the salvage team......' "Yes!"
Elena looked at the vehicle that drove away, how the worry in her heart could not be dispersed, "Dad so is it okay? I always feel a little uneasy......"
"It's okay, back at the Browns, Grandpa will watch him." At least it's better than him staying here.
Jacqueline, in the end, jumped right in front of him and continued to stay, and only made his own emotions more broken.
"
Elena nodded, the crowd on the bridge had gradually dispersed, the river was calm again, and Jacqueline was nowhere to be seen, she squeezed her hand slightly, "So what do we do now?" "We'll just have to wait to hear from the salvage team." Logan wordlessly tightened his grip on her hand.
Elena took a deep breath and felt only a little heavy in the head.
The Browns, one after another, just a few days of time, a row of two people went, even if her heart for these two people do not have any emotions, but in the end still feel a little powerless to fight. The night is getting deeper and deeper, the Browns have got news, Cornel because the stimulation is too much, and finally sleep or with the help of sedatives to quiet down.
George Brown's voice also seems to have aged a dozen years in general, Elena some dare not listen to continue, straight to push the phone to Logan.
Logan took it, his voice cold, "Grandpa."
"How's it going now? Any news?" George Brown's slow voice drilled into his eardrums.
"No." Logan shook his head and looked at the salvage team holding boats with lights on the river, his heart could no longer raise a single thought. George Brown let out another long sigh, "Life! It's all fate......"
"Grandpa doesn't have to say that." Logan was a little worried about his health.
George Brown laughed bitterly a few times, "Forget it, it's all about the people who are going to die, just go away...... but it's also a relief......"
Dead is good, dead is good, dead, it saves Cornel to remember all day long.
Logan's bones holding the phone are slightly white, "Grandpa, you also have a good rest, when there is news, I will contact you, the rest do not need to worry about." "Hmm."
George Brown nodded and hung up the phone with a sluggish movement.
Elena looked up slightly into his dark pupils, "Is Grandpa okay?"
"It's nothing serious, and it seems that he's been prepared for this for a long time." Logan patted the top of her head, "It's late, why don't I ask Jacob to take you back first." "No!"
Elena shook her head obstinately, as if she was afraid he would kick her out, the little woman immediately clung to his arm, "I'm not leaving, you're staying here, and so am I!" "You're still carrying a baby, don't be capricious."
"I didn't."
The small body leaned close to him, Elena skimmed her lips, "I know the score, so I won't catch a cold."
The night breeze blew, some Xu cool, Elena could not help but shiver.
Logan looked down at her, but in the end, he couldn't resist her, so he simply picked her up by the waist and walked to the car.
Elena was scared out of her wits, and her legs kept stomping around, "No, I'm not leaving, I have to stay with you!"
"I will accompany you back." The man said coolly, and as he spoke, he had already put her in the back seat and sat in next to himself. Elena blinked her eyes, "What about here?"
"No what to do, stay here we will not be of any help, it is better to go back." Moreover, he could not let her get cold here. Elena oh-so-quietly and immediately.
Logan turned his head, only to see the little woman's head now leaning against the car window with her eyes hanging down. Logan wordlessly took the slender body and pressed her little head on his knee, "Get some sleep, I'll call you when we arrive." "Well ...... hmm." Elena nodded in a daze, "Then you must remember to call me."
"Good."
Elena felt the thin calluses of his fingers as he caressed her cheek with his large hand, and within moments she was asleep.
On the way back, passing through a speed bump, Elena was shaken and woke up immediately, her eyes red from lack of sleep, just like a rabbit.
Logan immediately patted her back and coaxed, "It's okay, sleep a little longer."
"No." Elena leaned over his shoulder and shook her head, "We'll sleep when we get back."
The man didn't answer, but just silently hugged her body tighter.
Elena pursed her lips, couldn't help but worry again, "Earlier Yolanda's suicide was making a lot of noise, now Jacqueline also jumped into the river, will it be...... then too"
"It won't happen." He shook his head.
Elena hung her head low and didn't say a word.
Logan cupped her face, and his thin, cool lips planted a kiss on her cheek, "The Yolanda incident could have been suppressed, but I just wanted the Lees to come forward, so I let the matter fester, so don't worry this time, I'll have Jacob keep the news under wraps." Furthermore, no one saw Jacqueline jumping, if you want to make news out of this, the possibility of this matter, but also slightly difficult.
"That's good....." sniffed Elena, and she could clearly hear the sound of the stone in her heart falling to the ground.
Logan nodded.
In the silence, the two had returned to the villa.
It was only when Grandma called uneasily that the two remembered that they had forgotten to contact her, and it happened so suddenly that no one thought of it.
Listening to the worried words of the old man, Elena could not say that she blamed herself, "I'm sorry Grandma, we gave busy forget......"
She looked at the time, it was already 2:00 a.m. The old man was up so late, and I don't know how long he waited before he called.
Grandmother is nothing, just to confirm the safety is also finally a lot of peace of mind, "nothing, nothing is good, then you guys hurry to go to rest, wait for a few more days, you are free to come again can."
"Good." Elena was busy nodding, "Then Grandma, you should get some rest too."
Grandma hung up the phone with a smile on her face and didn't ask what was going on, and that understanding demeanor made Elena's heart burst with irony.
Logan looked at the dazed little person and grabbed her up and shoved her into the bathroom, "Mrs. Brown dear, it's late, you should wash up and go to bed too!"
