Chapter 49 I will protect you


    Elena pretended to support Aria to leave the pantry, which irritated Aria again. She couldn’t bear it and


    pushed Elena away again once they left other colleagues.


    Aria was suffering the pain on her chest and her headache. “Elena, just wait, I will make you pay back!”

    “Great!” Elena smiled and said, “Tell Emma that I won’t let her go too if she tries to bother me again.”


    She was nice but not weak. She wouldn’t be manipted by anyone!


    “Aha! You are just bluffing.” She growled a sarcastic reply and left resentfully. How could Elena ever


    compete with Emma? Though Elena was the daughter of Bush family, Emma was also Jeremy’s wife.


    Besides, could a shameful mistress beat the real wife?


    Elena stared at Aria’s back with a cold look.


    When Elena returned to the office, she received a big hug from Sophia, “Hey Elena, you are my idol!”


    “What are you doing?” Elenaughed.


    “I am praising you! You are amazing! You got back at Aria without getting hurt before everyone! Now all


    colleagues thought that Aria lost her mind and asked for trouble herself.”


    “I just taught her what I learned from her.” Elena said indifferently.


    However, though she won this time, it never meant that she could win easily next time.


    “Elena,” Charlie turned up in front of her in a second and said with a cunning smile, “You performed a


    good y, which impressed me a lot!”


    Elenained, “shouldn’t you stand up and stop it? How can you stand by and enjoy the conflicts


    between employees? In my opinion, it’s your negligence, Sir.”


    “Hey!” Charlie refused to ept thement, “You know, I was helping you!”


    “Well, you shouldn’t break your rule for me. Sir.” Elena continued.


    Charlie couldn’t ept that. He just enjoyed a y, but was treated by Elena as ifmitting a crime.


    How could she talk like that!


    Many colleagues saw their talking and thought Charlie was ming Elena for what happened in the


    pantry, so they tried to exin to Charlie, telling him that it wasn’t Elena’s fault.


    Now Charlie was really impressed by Elena’s ability! She was getting back at Aria on purpose! But


    everyone believed Aria looked for trouble and deserved it. He cleared his throat, “Fine, it’s over. Never


    again!”


    Elena nodded and promised, “Sure.”


    At this moment, the receptionist held a bunch of flowers and walked inside, “Elena, here’s something


    for you. Come and sign for it.”


    Who sent it? Elena was confused and took the flowers anyway. The receptionist said with jealously,


    “Wow, 99 roses are so heavy! I am so tired holding them!”


    “I’m sorry. And thank you.” Elena answered.


    “Who sent them to you?” Sophia quipped，“My idol, Logan?”


    Elena didn’t agree. In her point of view, Logan wouldn’t do such a boring thing, so the only possibility


    was...


    Seeing the card from the flowers, she knew she was right. It was Jeremy.


    “Jeremy?” Sophia looked at the card and found his name on it. “Why did he send the flowers to you?”


    After all, Jeremy was married. Besides, Elena’s husband was Logan, her idol and the perfect man all


    women wanted to marry. Jeremy could neverpare with him!


    “Maybe he doesn’t want to give up.” Elena said.


    Sophia was so curious about the gossip but Elena didn’t want to talk about it.


    Elena stared at the card for a while and the next second, she wore a cunning smile. Emma cherished


    Jeremy most, didn’t she? In this case, a trick was formed in her mind.


    At that moment, she received a message. “Did you receive my flowers? Do you like it? They traveled


    by air from abroad.”


    It was an unknown number which called her several times before. And now she knew who it was.


    “I like it very much, thank you.” She sent a message back.


    Before getting her message, Jeremy thought Elena was unwilling to talk to him and would just ignored


    him as usual. So he was extremely excited to hear from her. Was she moved by his efforts?


    “I am so d you like it. From now on, I will send you flowers every day.”


    However, Elena despised him even more. “I am afraid that Emma won’t be happy if she knows. You’d


    better send flowers to her, not to me.”


    Now Jeremy just wanted Elena back and didn’t care about Emma. Knowing her concern, he called her


    immediately.


    Elena hesitated for a while but answered the phone call, “Hello?”


    “Ele…Elena!” He called her name passionately, and took a deep breath to rx himself, “It’s great to


    hear your voice! You answered my phone call eventually. Am I dreaming?”


    She felt headache after hearing his words, “so what’s the matter?”


    Her indifference disappointed him a little, but she answered and that was progress, right?


    He continued, “Would you like to have a meal with me? It won’t take much time.”


    “But...” Elena hesitated, pretending she was in a difficult position.


    Jeremy said hurriedly, “Oh, right! Yourpany wanted to interview me, right? If you are the one to


    interview me, I am avable all the time!”


    “Great!” Elena threw the hesitation away and agreed quickly, “I guess Emma won’t get mad at me this


    time if she knows it’s all about work, right?”


    “She got mad at you for seeing me?” Jeremy got the key words and felt so angry.


    “No, no! She just…” She stammered as if looking for an excuse for Emma.


    Jeremy was furious. No wonder Emma sent him away when Elena interviewed himst time. She


    aimed to make Elena lose her job and warn her!


    “Elena, don’t worry about that. She will never know it. I will protect you whatever happens.”


    Elena said in an innocent tone, “What are you saying? My brother-inw, our meeting is just for work. I


    don’t need your protection.”


    Jeremy felt a little hurt. So, he hurried to make the appointment with Elena and hung up.


    Seeing everything was going on as she expected, Elena was quite happy. ‘Emma, you want to make


    trouble and let me suffer. I will remember this and take revenge on you. You want to use Aria to attack


    me? Then I will use your beloved man. Just wait and see who will win atst!’


    With the appointment approaching, Elena held the flowers and stood up. She said to Sophia, “Could


    you tell chief-editor that there is no need to use Mrs. Smith’s interview. I have made an appointment


    with Jeremy and I’m going to interview him now.”


    Sophia felt worried, “Would you like me to go with you? What if his wife appears? You will suffer!”


    Recalling Elena lying on the ground unconsciously, she was frightened.


    But Elena gave her a smile and said confidently, “Take it easy. I will be fine. Who am I? I am Elena!”


    Then she left the office determinedly, giving Sophia no chance to persuade her. She threw the roses


    into the trash can outside the building.


    Roses? She had been with Jeremy for several years and he didn’t even know her favorite flower was


    magnolia.


    She liked magnolia because it meant pure love...
