Chapter 177 I Can’t Leave You
Chapter 177 I Can’t Leave You
Jacob was right. The reason why Kent suddenly approached Elena was that he wanted to find out the truth.
“Is the e-mail about the hospital?” Logan quickly scanned the email and didn’t find any valuable information. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jacob was a little guilty when he heard his words, “Well, the hospital seems to be under his name. If he did the test in his own place, it was more difficult for us to find out the test result.”
“Alright. Come back now. I’m afraid he already knows you are shadowing him. I believe you can’t find anything useful there.”
“OK.” Jacob agreed, “I will go back to H City tonight, and I will find some people to watch him.”
Logan rubbed his aching temple, “Okay.”
After hanging up this call, Logan quickly called Zach. However, Zach was busy working out how to enter Sophia’s house. He was so surprised to receive Logan’s call right now. “Logan, what’s going on?”
“Send me the information about Kent, including who he has contacted and what he has said! The more detailed, the better.”
“Come on!” Zach was anxious, “You promised to give me more time! I haven’t solved my own problem! I am so busy now! How can you make me work right now?”
“Stop complaining. You should use your intelligence to attract Sophia, not with this shameless approach. Now, get to work!” He warned Zach.
Zach felt so frustrated, but looking at the closed door, he felt even sadder. He could do nothing but went to work, “Alright! Believe me, you will get whatever you want tomorrow. I will bring good news to
you.”
Zach said in a confident tone. However, Logan didn’t trust him and hung up the phone.
When he returned to the room, Elena was still asleep. He went to bed quietly. Just after he lay down, she hugged him and put her head on his chest.
Though it was very cold at night, being with her made him feel so warm.

The next morning, Zach’s constant calls woke Logan up. He hung up immediately, in fear of waking Elena up. Then he got up and moved to the study and called Zach. However, he didn’t get anything he wanted from Zach. “What about good news?”
Zach felt so sorry, “I overestimated myself. I can’t finish this mission in such a short time. I underestimated Kent’s complicated background! I stayed up for the whole night, but I just got a little information!
Kent seems to be an ordinary gangster in H City, but there is so much more buried underground. I have to tell you that one night is not enough for me to find out more information!”
Logan raised his eyebrows, “What? You want to break your words?”
“Hey, Logan...I didn’t know his complicated background before...” Zach looked depressed.
Logan sighed, “Forget it, I didn’t expect you to find out the truth in such a short time.”
Hearing his words, Zach felt relived yet a little guilty.
“Well, give me another three days. I will find out whatever you want to know. Okay?”
“I hope you won’t break your words this time.” Logan kindly reminded him.
Zach felt frustrated, and immediately answered, “You should believe me! I can do it in three days!”
“Good.”
Zach wanted to talk about the reward. Before he could ask, Logan made a promise, “If you can do a good job, I will help you win Sophia’s heart.”
How to make Sophia his girlfriend was his priority now. So he was so excited to know that Logan would help him, “Deal!”
“Deal. I won’t break my words.” Logan smiled. It was so fair. Logan was also happy that he didn’t need to pay a penny for this case.
Zach realized that Logan wouldn’t pay him money on this case. So he complained, “You are a monster!” And hung up the phone.
Logan couldn’t help laughing.

When Elena woke up, she found Logan wasn’t in the room. She went downstairs and smelt something delicious, so she walked to the kitchen. Logan was cooking now. And the breakfast was ready.
“Elena? Did you sleep well last night?” He asked without turning around.
Elena came closer and hugged him, “How do you know it’s me?”
“Is there anyone else in this house?” Logan asked.
Elena snorted, “Well, you can pretend that you haven’t heard anything and look surprised once you find it’s me.”
Logan said, “Okay. Let’s redo it. I will pretend to be surprised.”
“Forget it. You’ve ruined the surprise!” She laughed, “Wow, it smells so good.”
“Yes, have a try.”
She quickly kissed him on the cheek, “Thank you.”
All the breakfast was ready. Logan turned around, holding her waist, “How do you feel today? Still sore?”
“Much better. I thought I would be tired and exhausted today. But you know what, I felt better!” She was a little surprised. After thinking for a moment, she seemed to know the reason. She looked at him happily, “Did you do massage for me last night when I was asleep?”
Logan didn’t answer, holding her hands and leaving the kitchen. Then he said, “You should eat something and get better prepared for the training today.”
Though he didn’t admit it, Elena knew he did for her. She ran into his arms and embraced him tightly with a smile.
“Logan, you are so sweet! What can I do without you!”
He treated her so well but he never told her about it. She was not smart enough to find every time. He must do the massage for her ! And now he got up so early to prepare breakfast for her. Oh, how sweet he was!
However, he misunderstood her words. He caressed her face, saying in a cold tone, “Without me? Never an option!”
She didn’t know how to explain it. But she still felt warm that he cared her so much.
So she couldn’t help smiling again, and gave a kiss on his lips, “No, I won’t. I will never leave you.”
