Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 102

In Golden Cauldron Club

Leonardo came out of a private room and called Tim.

"How about Summer?"

Tim said on the other end, "Don't worry. I've run her back."

"OK."

When Leonardo hung up and turned around to go to the bathroom, a waiter carrying a curry bumped against him.

And the soup was spilt all over his jacket.

The waiter was shocked and began to tremble, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...."

Although Leonardo was furious, he left soon without scolding the waiter.

As the owner of Golden Cauldron Club, Leonardo had a room here. Before getting married, he used to live in the club when staying up late to work.

However, it was different after he married Summer.

In the room, there were his clothes and toiletries.

Leonardo took off his dirty clothes and tried to take one from the wardrobe.

When he saw a navy shirt and reached out, Leonardo felt someone approaching him from behind. He paused and turned around suddenly to squeeze the person's neck.

"Who are you?"

It was a woman as her skin was smooth.

Leonardo looked down at the familiar face.

Vicky wore a slip dress and charming makeup. Even though Leonardo squeezed her neck, she remained calm and gave him an alluring look, "Mr. Douglas, I'm a weak woman. Don't be so rude to me. I can hardly breathe...," she said coquettishly.

Vicky was good at seducing various kinds of men.

However, "Douglas" was different from them.

As soon as Vicky finished speaking, "Douglas" threw her out of his room. His face fell, and he said with loathing, "Get out of here!"

Vicky didn't give up and tried to approach him again.

However, she failed and fell to the ground again, as "Douglas" kept a beady eye on her movement.

Leonardo called the security guard, "There's a crazy woman in my room. Come and throw her out."

Then, he closed the door and changed his clothes soon.

When the security guard came, Vicky kept struggling, "He's my boyfriend. Let go of me!"

Not long after, Leonardo walked out of the room and looked at the guard coldly, "What are you doing? Can't you deal with a woman? I'm gonna fire you!"

Although the guard didn't know Leonardo was his true boss, he was sure that Leonardo had a high social status based on his room in the club. An important guest like Leonardo was qualified to ask the club's manager to fire him.

Before managing to take Vicky away, the guard bowed to Leonardo, "Sir, I'm sorry that she has bothered you."

As soon as he was about to leave, Leonardo said, "Take her to the police station and tell the police she harassed me."

The security guard was shocked.

It was the first time that he had seen a man claiming to be harassed since he worked in the club.

Furthermore, the male guest was serious.

"Alright ... I understand."

Vicky was angry about being insulated by Leonardo, and she tried to sow discord between him and Summer, "It is Summer who told me you are here tonight. You like her, but she doesn't care about you at all...."

The security guard hurriedly covered Vicky's mouth and took her away.

Hearing her words, Leonardo narrowed his eyes, and his face fell, "Summer...."

As he returned with a grim expression, Carl asked, "What happened?"

Leonardo said in a deep voice, "We'd better hire some new employees."

It was obvious that Vicky had bribed the waiter to bump against him and someone else to enter his room.

Golden Cauldron Club was characterized by client confidentiality. However, many employees here had forgotten it. It was time to remind them.

After dinner, Carl noticed that Leonardo was sitting still.

Why didn't he go home? It was not his style recently. Despite the fact that he was busy, he used to leave right after work.

Carl asked in puzzlement, "Why don't you go home?"

"Leave me alone. I'll stay the night here." Leonardo stood up, took his coat from the back of the chair and walked out.

Carl scratched his hair and muttered, "Do they have a quarrel?"

...

Summer went to bed after dinner. However, she couldn't sleep.

Although she had confirmed that Vicky didn't go to Golden Cauldron Club for the time being, she kept concerning about "Douglas", as he hadn't come back yet.

She tried to hear if there was a car.

But she didn't hear anything until midnight.

So, "Douglas" was still in the club.

Summer was upset and tried to call her. However, she hesitated for a while and put down the phone.

She felt guilty about "Douglas".

Summer stayed up late and fell asleep at last.

The next day.

Although Summer didn't sleep well last night, she was spirited in the morning.

After going downstairs, she asked the bodyguard, "Did Douglas come back last night?"

The bodyguard shook his head, "No."

Summer's heartbeat quickened soon.

On the way to work, she finally got up the courage to call "Douglas".

"Douglas" answered it a few seconds later.

"What's wrong?" he asked in a hoarse voice, as if he had just woken up.

It was strange as he should have got up now.

"Nothing. I called you by accident. You can continue to sleep...." Summer hung up in a hurry.

Summer was wondering whether he was seduced by Vicky or not.

She felt sick and upset when imagining Vicky was beside him now.

As for Leonardo, he smiled after hanging up.

Did she worry about him?

He'd better wait for a while before reassuring her.

Leonardo was in a good mood and called the help desk, "Bring me a cup of hot water."

He caught a cold because of not turning on the heating last night.
