Presiden's wild wife

Chapter 44 Her Ugly Face

In the study of the villa, Jacob was reporting about the schedule for today.

After finishing, he said, "Mr. Scott returned from abroad a few days ago. He would like to meet you."

The full name of Mr. Scott was Roger Scott. The Scott family had a good relationship with Logan’s grandfather for a long time. When Logan’s mother was young, the Scott family hoped that she could marry Roger. Unexpectedly, they two disappointed their families.

"No problem," Logan nodded and answered, "Tell him that I will meet him together with Elena when she is free in the weekend."

Logan respected Roger a lot. So he would like to visit him with his dearest one, which would surely make Uncle Roger happy.

Jacob nodded then added, "The chief editor of Green Light Magazine seems to know madam’s identity because of the conflicts in the interview with Jeremy."

"It’s not a big deal. I know Charlie. He’s the illegitimate son who isn’t admitted by the Wilson family. He is quite capable but not ambitious. So he just runs the magazine in these years." Logan said.

Therefore, they didn’t have to worry that Charlie would treat Elena differently because of her identity.

Jacob felt relieved, "Then I will arrange the visit to Mr. Scott tomorrow."

"Go ahead." Logan replied.

...

Jeremy felt extremely excited when he thought of the coming interview by Elena. He used to keep an appointment in time. But to leave a good expression on Elena, he arrived half an hour earlier this time.

At five minutes to eleven o’clock in the morning, Aria arrived in the restaurant as well. She mentioned her appointment with Jeremy and the waiter led her to the reserved room. When she heard that Jeremy had been waiting in the room, her pace quickened.

Aria hurried to the room out of breath and opened the door. "Good morning, Mr. Smith. Sorry to keep you waiting for me."

"It doesn’t matter. I just arrived as well." Jeremy looked up but his smile disappeared when he saw Aria alone. "Who are you?"

"Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Aria working as the editor of Green Light Magazine. Nice to meet you! " Aria took out her business card to Jeremy immediately.

Jeremy frowned and asked, "Only you?"

Aria was confused, "What do you mean, Mr. Smith?"

"Where is Elena?" Jeremy became impatient and annoyed. The reason why he accepted the interview was he thought Elena would be responsible for it. But now, she didn’t appear at all.

"Ele… Elena?" Aria repeated his words falteringly, "Mr. Smith, Elena had offended you yesterday, so our company decided to send me here to take over the interview. What are you looking for her? To punish her?"

Aria had no idea what Jeremy was thinking. So she just asked, hoping he wanted to punish Elena in secret.

To Aria’s surprise, Jeremy became even angrier. He stood up suddenly and shouted, "Who made the decision to replace her? What mistake did she make? When did I tell you to replace her?"

"Please allow me to explain... Mr. Smith. This is not my personal but our company’s arrangement and I just followed the order. Furthermore, this interview is really important to me..."

"That’s enough!" Jeremy lost his patience and stopped her, "I don’t want to continue the interview. Hope that we will cooperate next time."

Jeremy rejected the interview with Aria and left in anger. He thought he was so stupid to worry about the interview for the whole day. How silly he was! He even wore a tailored suit, hoping to leave a good impression on Elena.

Seeing him leaving without hesitation, Aria clenched her fists in anger and hated Elena to the bone.

Why did Elena always win? Both Logan and Jeremy rejected her because of Elena. What did she do to bewitch them?

Aria swore to make Elena pay! But first, she should solve the problem. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

She stayed for a while to calm down and then made a call to someone she contacted before. She had plan B in mind before she came here.

"Good morning Mrs. Smith. This is Aria working for the Green Light Magazine…"

...

Elena was working and had a chill suddenly.

"Did you catch a cold without the heating on?"Sophia was worried.

"Never mind. Just an itch in my nose." Elena answered with a smile.

The weather became warmer recently, so the colleagues in the office turned off the heating.

Later, Aria’s arrival caused the uproar in Team One. Aria looked proud and delivered the interview draft to the chief editor directly. She also explained that due to an emergency, Jeremy’s wife replaced him to be interviewed.

Team One and Team Two had went through the first draft of the interview. They saw that Aria asked Emma’s opinion about the cheating in the showbiz.

Emma seemed to be confident about her marriage, "The responsibility rests with both parties. I think if the couple are both busy and have less time to spend with each other, they will turn to someone else and separate one day. However, I believe that this won’t happen to Jeremy and me because we always support each other both in work and life."

There was nothing wrong with Emma’s words. But considering what happened between her and Elena...

Sophia pouted and said, "Elena, I think she is declaring war on you."

Emma was indeed announcing that she would always stay with Jeremy and she would not allow anybody to destroy their relationship no matter what.

Elena blinked her eyes and smiled, "You are over-thinking. It’s just a simple interview."

"Fine." Sophia nodded and agreed.

"I need to go to the washroom." Elena stood up and left. When Aria saw her leaving, she immediately hinted her two assistants.

Elena washed her face with the cold water in the washroom. She felt dizzy and wasn’t sure if she had caught a cold or not.

She looked pale in the mirror and suddenly another three faces appeared in the mirror.

She was taken back and found Aria had came. "Hi. Aria."

Aria’s arms crossed before her chest and she leaned against the wall. She stared at Elena’s pale face and asked, "What? Panicked after reading the interview draft?"

"I don’t understand what you are saying." Elena felt her hostility and wanted to leave right now. But one of the three blocked her way quickly and dragged her.

Aria gave a hint and one of her assistants put a sign with ‘UNDER REPAIR’ outside the washroom. Then she locked the door.

Elena struggled to get rid of them but failed. She became angry and said, "What are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do? Someone did me a favor and I need to pay back, right? Or how did I finish the interview successfully?" Aria acted as if she felt grateful to someone who helped her.

So Emma asked her to do this. Elena realized the truth instantly.

"Aren’t you afraid that Charlie will fire you if he knows that you are bullying other employees?"

"Oh, actually I am scared to death." Aria answered with crazy laughter. "I forgot to tell you that Charlie had a call and had already left the office. Coral was not in the office, either. Furthermore, the washroom is soundproof and nobody will know what we are doing here."

Elena felt sick after hearing this but she had to negotiate with them. "Sophia knows that I am in the washroom. If I don’t come back later, she will definitely come to look for me."

Aria’s stare became malevolent and her assistants pressed Elena against the wall to prevent her from moving.

"You are dreaming. That stupid Sophia won’t have any chance to get in here."

"What do you want from me?" Elena couldn’t move and felt insulted.

Aria took out her mobile phone and took several pictures of Elena. Then she sent them to Emma. Later, she touched Elena’s pretty face with her slender fingers.

"Look at your pretty face. No wonder Logan and Jeremy are seduced by you."

As Aria pinched her face, Elena gasped, feeling painful. But she could only stare at Aria’s ugly face in great anger.
