Chapter 3

Logan motioned for his helper Jacob to stop. After getting off, Jacob let Elena inside the door.

Someone gave her a business card. Elena saw that the name "Logan Brown" was so striking that it appeared to have been placed there on purpose to create a lasting impression on her.

"I'll be patient with you. Naturally, if your family is unable to wait, that is none of my concern." He gave a small smile.

He was making threats to her!

Elena got out of the car and watched as it slowly vanished, rage shining in her eyes.

Sensation told her she was never going to get along with that man.

Her thoughts were cut off at that same time as she noticed a familiar ring on her phone. Emma was the one.

Her first reaction was to almost unconsciously turn down the call. "Elena, if you don't want others to know what happened last night, come back now!" Emma texted her shortly after, though.

Elena's phone rang again, and her heart began to race. "Emma, what are you gonna do?" she asked herself. Unaware of it, she held her phone fiercely.

Loud, scornful laughter erupted from the opposite direction. "Elena, you already know."

Regardless of your desire, you must wed him! What you did last night is captured on tape. Please respect me and do what I say if you don't want me to reveal it."

"Emma!" Elena clinched her teeth and spoke her name with intense hate.

“You're going to marry that cripple, so there's no need for you to dislike me. But keep in mind that I'm working for your benefit. It's great if you don't want to get married. Our father has previously spoken with the Far East Bank president. Between that crippled man and a fifty-year-old man, you have a choice!"

Elena tensed up physically. She felt as though she had fallen into an ice basement, despite the fact that it was a sunny day.

"Ha. "So, I'm the only one who will be sacrificed from the beginning?" chuckled cynically Elena. She closed her eyes, letting the tears cascade down her cheeks.

Elena ended the call right away. She could never allow people to see her frailty.

She had a wrinkled business card in her palm. She had the impression that she was walking on a sharp knife when she dialed this number.

The phone was linked.

"Hey, Elena inhaled deeply. She finally declared, "Mr. Brown, I will marry you."

It was like a significant bet. She chose Logan and gambled with her whole life.

As promised, a grand wedding was held in H City. However, everyone knew the purpose of the Bush family.

Elena looked beautiful in a saintly bustier wedding dress, showing off her delicate collarbone and shoulder. Her neckline was

decorated with a dazzling diamond necklace.

Emma took Jeremy's arm and was full of smiles, "Congratulations! Sister, you have got what you want."

"Blessing on you too. You have also got what you want. When you get married, remember to let me know, and I will prepare you with a great gift. Elena smiled. She had already accepted her fate.

Emma knew the hidden meaning in Elena's words and smiled, "Elena, you are so proud

Now."

Elena smiled recklessly, glanced at her, and then continued: "Don't worry, I will always be this proud and live a happy life!"

"Bitch!" just as Emma spoke, a low voice came behind her, "Bitch?"

Elena turned around, only to realize that Logan appeared out of the blue. He was in a tailored tuxedo and his natural dignity made people subconsciously afraid to look up.

"Who are you referring to?" he reached out to take Elena's hand, with his gaze landing on Emma.

Emma cursed in secret, not daring to move, and faked a smile, "Nobody."

"Hmm?" He asked as if questioning her.

Elena smiled slightly, and said, "Nobody?

Weren't you referring to me just now? How come you forget that so quickly?"

"Elena!" Jeremy called her anxiously.

"Brother-in-law, what's wrong?"

Elena immediately interrupted him, stressing the words 'Brother-in-law, with her eyes full of sarcasm.

Jeremy looked at her with disapproval, as if he was chastising her for what she said, and Elena only found it amusing. What was he doing? Did he think she still loved him when he already cheated on her?

"Did Miss Bush just insult my wife?" Logan narrowed his eyes, not about to let her go.

Emma was flustered and said, "No, it was a misunderstanding. She raised her eyes and shed tears, "Logan, you know that I should be your bride. But fate just plays jokes. I don't blame anyone. We are not destined to be together. I sincerely hope you live a happy life. But Elena doesn't appreciate it and

hurt me, that's why I..."

She was truly good at telling lies. Elena was almost fooled by her.

But Elena wasn't going to stand and endure, "Sister, aren't you with Jeremy now?

Besides, Logan is my husband. Do you know what you are talking about?"

Emma looked at Jeremy worriedly, full of innocence.

Jeremy glared at her and said, "Elena, you don't have to incite between us. Emma is not that kind of person!"

Elena sneered and said, "Of course, you know what kind of person she is. She is the person who doesn't want to marry Logan and the same person who complains about not marrying him. Well, maybe she's just trying

to get you both."

"I am not.."

"You are talking nonsense!" Jeremy was annoyed.

Logan held Elena's hand quietly and said with a cold expression: "You are my only wife

in my heart. No one can replace you!

She was his wife? Elena wished that Jeremy could say these words to her before, but things had changed now!

Emma didn't dare to be reckless again and hid behind Jeremy, whispering, "Jeremy I'm sorry. I said that just because I didn't want him to find out we set him up."

Jeremy's heart ached as he hugged her, "I believe you."

Emma lowered her head and played with her fingers in grief. Later, Mason came over. Seeing Emma's grief, his face changed immediately, but he only warned Elena coldly, considering Logan was present.

"Elena, she's your sister. You've got what you want. What else do you want!"

Elena chilled and answered, "Nothing. If you don't want to see her suffer, then tell her not to mess with me." After saying that, she put her hands on Logan's wheelchair and was ready to leave, but Logan stopped her and said, "Mr. Bush.

"Yes, Logan, Mason answered quickly.

Logan smiled and said very clearly, "My wife is Elena, not Emma."

Suddenly, both Mason's and Emma's faces paled. Logan was warning them not to mention the past things again.

Mason faked a smile and responded,

"Logan, we're family now. There is no need to draw a clear line between things."

"If you treat Elena as a family member, then I will treat you as family," Logan answered. This was also a warning to them.

Elena was startled no one had ever been so

protective to her in her memory...

While Emma was jealous of Logan's love for Elena, she reminded herself that even if they seemed to be happy now, she still had to spend the rest of her life with a disabled man.

Thinking of this, Emma showed a satisfied smile, watching Elena's figure with hatred.
