Chapter 239 Go with Jacqueline’s scheme
Elena felt so uncomfortable when Yolanda came in with her strong perfume. Because she had read the list of the food or things that she should avoid in pregnancy, she knew a pregnant woman should avoid the musk, a kind of substance that could cause possible miscarriage. This substance was usually used in making perfume.
And Yolanda just sprayed the perfume all over on purpose. She wanted to make Elena miscarry.
Logan sneered, “Jacqueline made me disabled, and now you and our baby are her targets! How dare she!”
Elena pulled one of his hands and put it on her belly, “Don’t worry. I will protect our baby no matter what!”
He touched her belly fondly, “I am so sorry.”
Jacqueline’s scheme was directed at him. She couldn’t bear to see that he would have a baby.
He was so regretful to tell George that Elena was pregnant. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Elena seemed to be able to read his mind; she knew what he was thinking now. She smiled mildly, “It’s not your fault. I am prepared for it. What’s more, everyone will know I’m pregnant a few months later. So it’s not your fault to let the Browns know about it.”
She wasn't afraid of them, because she had Logan and their baby. She would try her best to protect them.
But Logan shook his head, “You can’t imagine how far Jacqueline will go. She isn’t a nice person. I am afraid that she will hurt you one day.”
Elena didn’t understand it; she just thought he might hide something important from her.
Logan kissed her on her cheek, “Anyway, I will protect you.”
Elena embraced his neck, looking at him with a smile of amusement, “I know. I know you will protect us.”
“Okay. Now you should go to take a bath. I’d better call the doctor.” said Logan.
He went back to the dining room. Two bowls were still on the table. One was empty, with lipstick on the edge. It was used by Yolanda. Elena didn’t drink it. He felt a bit relieved.
Jacqueline came to them uninvited with Yolanda. He wouldn’t believe that she meant well here. The chicken soup wouldn’t be a kind of “healthy food”. She might put something unknown into the soup, which might hurt Elena and the baby.
After taking a bath, Elena saw Doctor Jeff waiting for her. After checking, Jeff took a breath of relief, “It’s okay. You didn’t take in any musk. It won’t harm you. But you should pay attention to it in the future.”
“Take the soup and do a test,” Logan said.
“A test? Don’t waste it.” Jeff grinned, sitting on the chair and starting to enjoy the soup.
The soup might contain some substance that harmed a pregnant woman. But for a man, it was just a bowl of chicken soup.
Logan laughed, “Are you that hungry?”
Jeff giggled, “I am Doctor Albert’s student. I am also a good doctor. I can taste it myself. No need to test it.”
Elena was surprised, “You can taste it?!”
“Of course,” Jeff said confidently.
Then he tried to taste the soup. After a while, he frowned and said, “Well…I am sorry to tell you that the soup was made with some ingredients that will cause miscarriage.”
Hearing that, Logan became furious, “Jacqueline has gone too far! She must pay for it!”
“Alright!” Jeff poured the soup back to the pot, “I’ve done my mission. I am leaving now.”
“OK.” Logan nodded, adding, “Well, I need your help, later.”
“What?”
“I will tell you later.” Logan seemed to have a plan. Jeff nodded and left. But Elena was confused and worried.
He pinched her hand, “Don’t be afraid.”
“I am not.” She tried to smile, holding his hand.
They exchanged a smile. Suddenly, Elena’s phone rang. It was George.
“Are you okay, Elena?!”
She was about to speak, but Logan took away her phone and answered, “Elena…is not good now.”
George was dumbfounded, “Elena…she…”
Elena didn’t know why he was telling a lie to George. She was about to say something, but Logan stopped her, and continued, “She is in hospital now. I am not very clear about what happened…but the doctor just told me that…there is a sign of miscarriage…”
“Miscarriage?!” George was scared. “Which hospital! Tell me now! I will go there, with Jacqueline!”
Logan frowned, “Jacqueline? How did you know she brought the chicken soup to Elena?”
“The maid told me that she insisted to make the soup herself and sent it to Elena as a gift. And the maid checked the ingredients thrown in the bin, which were all harmful to a pregnant woman!”
George was so angry that he could hardly stand.
Cornel held him and said, “Dad, you may misunderstand it. Jacqueline won’t do this to Elena.”
George wanted to hit his stupid son, “Foolish! You are so silly to defend her! She is just an evil bitch. You ruined Logan’s mother’s life, and now you are ruining yourself! Are you trying to piss me off!?”
“Dad…that’s not what I mean…”
“Stop your bullshit. I won’t let Jacqueline get away with it this time!”
Logan heard how George scolded Cornel on the call. He knew his plan worked. He smiled, “Grandpa, you should ask Jacqueline what she put into the soup. Well…I am waiting in the hospital.”
Then he quickly ended the call.
Elena was shocked and confused, “What are you doing?”
Logan looked at her, his dark eyes shining, “Just go with the way Jacqueline wants.”
