Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 52

Warren walked in and smiled at Summer, “Me too.”

Then he sat down at the dining table, and Carl sat beside him.

Only Leonardo unhappily stood at the entrance of the restaurant.

Summer was confused.

Why did she feel that something was wrong?

Leonardo coldly walked in and sat down.

Summer wanted to go to the kitchen to get two more bowls.

Leonardo kicked Carl and Warren under the table, “Go get your bowls.”

His wife could only serve him.

Then Carl and Warren went to the kitchen to get their bowls.

Summer was shocked. She didn’t expect that they would listen to “Douglas”, who was just a playboy.

Actually, she felt that they bent to “Douglas”.

She sat down at the dining table.

She was about to eat when she heard the crisp sound of chopsticks hitting the plate.

She looked up and saw that the three men were competing for food, especially “Douglas”. He actually competed for each dish.

Summer only ate the rice in her bowl. She felt that the three men were very childish.

Warren noticed her gaze and apologized, “Sorry. I haven’t eaten any home-cooked food in the past three years.”

Carl said, “I’m busy too. I eat takeout every day.”

Leonardo said, “They’re talking nonsense.”

Carl and Warren only ate and didn’t say anything.

Summer felt that “Douglas” seemed to pick on them.

She nudged “Douglas” gently and said when she saw that he was looking at her, “Since you asked them to stay for dinner, you should treat them nicely.”

When did he ask them to stay for dinner?

Leonardo sneered at Carl and Warren, “You guys eat more.”

Summer’s hand trembled. Why did she feel that the three men would fight at any time?

She felt that the atmosphere was strange, so she went to the living room after eating.

She didn’t understand what was wrong with those men.

Once she left, the atmosphere became harmonious in the dining room.

Carl asked, “What exactly happened to Summer?”

Leonardo glanced at him coldly.

Then Carl stopped talking.

Warren was a serious person. He would joke only when he was with Carl. But he would be very serious when he was working.

He didn’t just stay for dinner. Actually, he had important things to say.

He said seriously, “The contract that Lynn gave Summer is indeed fishy. It has obvious loopholes.”

Leonardo sneered, “Lynn is shrewd, but Summer isn’t stupid. If she works in the Jarrett Group, she will definitely make trouble. Then Lynn will ask his father to come back to take charge.”

Not long after his mother and he were rescued, he was engaged to a Jarrett girl. And Lynn’s father decided to retire and went abroad.

In terms of family background, even if Leonardo was truly disfigured and lost the ability as a man, the Jarretts still had no right to change his fiancée.

Because of the sudden engagement, he suspected that the kidnapping had something to do with the Jarretts. Therefore, he hadn’t refused when Michael asked him to get married.

He had wanted to investigate the Jarretts through his fiancée, Vicky.

However, the one who married him was Summer, a clever girl with secrets who could be witless sometimes.

He leaned back and smiled helplessly.

The food Summer cooked was as the same as that of his mother, so he couldn’t help but get closer to her.

Carl knocked on the dining table and said, “I think you can directly invite Lynn’s father to come back.”

“We can’t do that, or the men behind the kidnapping will be spooked,” Leonardo said, “There must be something fishy about Lynn’s father’s retirement. It has been fifteen years. I can wait for a few more days. I want to find out all the people related to the kidnapping.”

But what would he do after that?

Although Leonardo didn’t speak, Carl knew that Leonardo wouldn’t let those people off easily.

He had investigated the accident for many years, and the clues indicated that some people in the Emerson’s had colluded with the kidnappers.

On Monday.

Summer was going to work in the Jarrett Group.

She didn’t care what position Lynn would arrange for her. Anyway, she had the shares that she wasn’t worried.

Since she didn’t need to disguise, she could wear new clothes.

All girls liked to dress well.

Summer had beautiful clothes, and Jessica had bought many beautiful clothes for Summer too.

Jessica was from a rich family. In high school, she had been the school bully, followed by many students. There were also many students who hated her, most of which were girls.

Those girls thought of a malicious way to deal with Jessica.

When Jessica was alone, they took her to an abandoned school building and bullied her. They even took off her clothes and took pictures...

Summer heard the shouting when she went to feed the stray cat. She picked up a rusty knife and walked over, “A fool won’t be imprisoned if he kills a person.”

Then those girls ran away fearfully.

Afterwards, Jessica and she became good friends until now.

Summer wore a red coat with a black sweater inside. She wore a pair of black leather shoes, looking energetic and capable.

She went downstairs and saw “Douglas” reading the newspaper with a cup of coffee in his hand.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he looked up and saw Summer. The red coat made her skin look brighter.

The coat was just an inch above her knee, revealing her slender and straight legs.

She was very attractive.

Leonardo looked at her and said, “You go to hook up with other men while my cousin is away.”

He didn’t ask her, as if he was stating a fact.

Summer was in a good mood, because she thought she looked beautiful when looking at herself in the mirror.

She walked over and looked down at Leonardo with contempt, “Even if I want to hook up with someone, it would be Leonardo only. Don’t think that I’m cheap.”

Hearing that, Leonardo’s hand trembled that the coffee spilled on his suit.
