Chapter 155
Presiden's wild wife
Hearing their conversation, Elena was astonished. Did Logan mean that there was more to the story with Joannaâs death?
In no time, she looked at Mason with puzzlement. But Mason immediately looked away, âShe died in an accident. Whatâs wrong with that? We all will die one day!â
Logan squinted at him with doubt and unbelief.
âYou can take away your belongings, but I wonât let you take the things she left to me!â Mason didnât want to stay any longer, so he stopped talking to them and stepped into the mental hospital.
Elena was nervous and confused. âIs there anything weird about my mumâs death?â
âNothing weird. Donât worry.â Though he also felt confused, he chose to comfort Elena first.
For some reason, Elena felt somewhat relieved.
The next day, Elena went back to Masonâs house and took away all her belongings. However, she only needed a small suitcase to contain all her things. It was so ridiculous that she had so little after living in this house for over 20 years!
Jacob wanted to help her carry the suitcase, but she refused, âNo, thanks. Jacob.â Then she carried it by herself and put it in the trunk of the car.
âLetâs go home.â
Jacob nodded, looking at her, âMadam, do you have anything else?â
âNo.â She looked calm and got into the car.
Through the rearview mirror, she saw Masonâs figure vaguely. But when she checked it again, there was no one as if she was daydreaming.
Jacob started the car and drove away from the house. Elena took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

Time was flying and Loganâs birthday was coming. Elena was so nervous as his birthday got closer. However, Logan didnât mention about it.
Zach wanted to help make a plan in order to celebrate Loganâs birthday, âElena. What Logan wants is a unique present. You can just give what he wants, or...â
âStop it!â She patted the table, complaining, âWhat are you talking about? Save it! You donât have to worry about it!â
âCome on! Men are all like this. Just give him what he wants.â Zach didnât know why Elena was angry, continuing persuading her.
Elena didnât want to talk to him. She pushed him away, âStop! You come here for Logan, not for me. Why are you so interested in the present I prepare for Logan?â
âCome on, I am caring about you.â
Elena complained in silence. âCome on, you are caring about me? You are just caring about the gossip!â
At that moment, Logan came in with Jacob after attending a meeting. He gave the proposal to Jacob, âJust follow the instructions. The project will be handed over to Strategic Planning Division of Group One.â
âGot it.â Jacob nodded and left to work.
Elena knew that they had business to talk about, so she left the room without saying a word.
Zach whistled merrily, and asked Logan, âYou are not going to tell her, are you?â
âUntil everything is clear, I wonât tell her.â Logan asked, âHow about the investigation?â
Zach showed him the files, âWell, as you asked, I checked the grave. Nobody is buried in the grave. The grave is just a reminder for Mason. Thatâs to say, Joanna disappeared 20 years ago. Although she was said to be dead, her body hasnât been found so far.â
Zach couldnât help asking, âForget about it. Tell me, how do you know thereâs no one under the grave?â
âI found that Masonâs attitude towards Elena was erratic. He cares about her but sometimes hates her. So I think itâs related to Elenaâs mother, for they look alike. So, I am sure that Mason loves Joanna. That can explain why he has complicated feelings towards Elena.â
Zach was still confused, âHow is this related to my question?â
âSince Mason loves Joanna so much, why hasnât he visited her grave in nearly 20 years?â Logan raised his eyebrows, looking at Zach with a confident smile.
Jacob spent a lot of time trying to find the location of Joannaâs grave, and he even searched all the property under Masonâs name. Finally, he found it.
Zach understood at once, âOh, yeah! You are right! If Joanna is really dead and buried under the grave, Mason will definitely go to visit her once or twice!â
Then he added, âOh Lord. Sounds like heâs holding grudge towards Joanna! How can they claim that she was dead? And they even built a grave for a missing person!â
âIf he doesnât tell the truth, we will never know.â Logan was sullen, thinking about how to make Mason speak.
Zach said, âIâm afraid it wonât be easy. Listen, he can keep the secret for more than 20 years. He wonât mind taking it to his grave!â
âSo, itâs your show time then.â Logan looked at him cunningly.
Zach was astonished, and he wanted to refuse it, âDo you want me to...make him speak?â
âOr what? Jacob is very busy. Iâm afraid he wonât have spare time to do this.â
âWow!â Zach yelled immediately, âAre you using me? Come on, I am your best friend! And I work so hard for you these years! How can you exploit me like this? You know what, I just asked someone to dig the grave, and I was almost caught by the police.â
âSo you donât want to earn my money?â Logan said in a low tone.
Zachâs eyes lit up with happiness, but he didnât show his excitement to Logan, âWell, I wonât do it unless you double the price!â
âYou will get four times of your payment. I want to know everything about Joanna, including her family!â Logan was so generous.
They made the deal. Then Zach showed Logan another file, âI keep watching Bianca. Her mother was discharged from the hospital now, and she seems to receive calls these days from somebody we donât know. And we still have no clue about the call. The man is very cautious, and his phone numbers are traced overseas.â
âWell, keep watching her. Perhaps he just wants to confirm what she has known and told us. He wonât ask her to do anything now. And she canât do anything, either.â
Logan deleted all the information given by Zach, which made Zach distressed, âYou just spent a minute checking it! Do you know how long I spent in finding it? Itâs all from my hard work!â
âItâs not safe to keep it in the computer. Just keep it in my mind.â He replied simply.
Zas was unhappy about his answer. Did Logan mean that he was too stupid to keep things in mind?
Logan turned off the computer and looked at him, âYou can go now.â
Zach gritted his teeth angrily, âYou!â And then he walked to the door.
