Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 117

Leonardo ignored Carl and turned around to look at Summer. He noticed Summer when she was about to run away.

Summer wanted to leave, but she was stopped by him.

"Summer."

Summer turned around and faked a smile, "I have to go."

Then she passed them and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water.

When she came out, Leonardo and Carl stopped talking.

"Summer, did Jessica call you?" Carl smiled when he saw her.

"Yes." Summer hold the cup and sat down on the sofa opposite them.

Carl was happy.

However, Carl was disappointed because of what Summer said next.

"She told me that you were shameless," Summer smiled innocently.

Carl was in a bad mood.

"They framed me. I have nothing to do with the two women. That day, I was in..." Carl stopped suddenly. He looked up at Leonardo and shut his mouth.

Leonardo asked Carl to be in charge of the Golden Cauldron Club and the Tip Top and kept it as a secret. Carl couldn't expose it.

"I drank too much that day, so I stayed in the club. I didn't sleep with them."

"Explain it to Jessica." Summer looked at Carl coldly.

Carl said hopelessly, "She doesn't answer my phone."

"Find her. You know where she is. If you can't explain such a small misunderstanding, it's better not to pester her." Summer stopped talking, drank a mouthful of water and got up to leave.

Leonardo, who had been silent, reached out to take her cup and drank a mouthful of water.

"I...." 'I drank it.'

Noticing that he had drunk the water, Summer stopped talking. Her ears turned red.

She wasn't as thick-skinned as Leonardo. Carl was here.

Summer didn't take the cup. She turned around and ran upstairs.

Carl watched her go upstairs and said to Leonardo thoughtfully, "Why didn't I feel that Summer's words were so sharp?"

Before Leonardo replied, Carl said, "Her tone is as sharp as yours."

"Cut the crap and find your unknown star." Leonardo was about to get up and go upstairs.

Carl was surprised. "Why don't you invite me for dinner?"

Leonardo looked at him coldly and said, "Get out."

Leonardo ate the salty noodles in this morning thanks to Douglas.

Ever since Summer knew that he was Leonardo, she treated him badly. How could she cook for him?

She wouldn't cook for him. How could Leonardo invite Carl for dinner here?

Carl didn't know how he provoked Leonardo. Carl had more important things to do, so he didn't have time to care about that.

...

When Leonardo returned to the bedroom, he saw Summer hugging her computer and sitting on the sofa.

She wore earplugs and looked at the screen. She was watching a movie.

Leonardo walked over and leaned over to take a look. It was Adams's movie.

He pulled the screen down unhappily.

Summer pulled off her earplugs and asked him angrily, "What are you doing?"

She controlled herself not to lose temper because she was afraid of him. Leonardo noticed that.

She was cute.

Leonardo smiled and looked at her. "Did you hear that?"

Summer pretended that she didn't hear their conversation. "What are you talking about?"

"The Jarretts bribed the media to release Carl's news. Carl is influential in the entertainment industry. Their goal is to distract the attention of the public, so they can solve the problem."

Leonardo spoke slowly and calmly. He observed her expressions.

"Who did it?" Summer thought for a moment and said, "Vicky?"

Vicky was stupid. Summer thought Vicky did that.

Although Carl worked in the entertainment industry, the Tip Top Media Company was influential in the entertainment industry and was countless times stronger than the Jarrett Group.

How could Carl let go of the Jarrett Group easily after they framed him?

She heard what Carl said.

Leonardo said seriously, "Do you want me to help the Jarrett Group solve the problem?"

"What do you mean?" Summer felt that Leonardo implied something.

"If you asked for help, I would help you. If you were reluctant, I wouldn't interfere," Leonardo smiled. He doted on her.

Leonardo was handsome. In the entertainment industry, there were few people who were more handsome than him. Even if there were, their temperaments weren't comparable to Leonardo's.

Summer was fascinated by his gentle gazes.

Did he flirt with her again?

If she asked for help, would he help her?

They looked at each other. They remained silent and didn't look away.

Someone knocked at the door. "Mr. Emerson, Mrs. Emerson, the food is ready."

Summer regained her senses, bit her lips and said, "I need your help."

"OK."

Without any hesitation, Leonardo agreed.

She was reluctant to help the Jarrett Group. She didn't believe what Leonardo said, so she had a try.

Helping the Jarrett Group wasn't beneficial to him. It was troublesome and laborious for him.

Smart people were reluctant to do such a thing.

...

After Leonardo promised to help the Jarrett Group, he acted.

First, the negative news about the Jarrett Group online disappeared. Then the companies that dissolved their cooperation with the Jarrett Group changed their minds.

Not long after, the Jarrett Group got back on track.

Some people even invested in the Jarrett Group.

Summer knew all these things. She had mixed feelings.

Unexpectedly, Leonardo was serious. He helped them a lot.

Occasionally, there were posts discussing the scandal of the Jarrett Group's factory online, but they were deleted soon.

The media and the influential users of Weibo didn't mention it anymore as if they lost memories.

Jessica, who propagandized her movie, returned to Hoover City. Summer happened to get her salary and asked her to have dinner together.

When Summer got off work, the driver wasn't Tim.

As soon as Summer got on the car, she told the name of the restaurant to the driver, "Please send me to this restaurant. You don't have to pick me up later. I'll go back myself."

Douglas's business was good. He counted the pupils' exercise books and turned around to ask her, "Where are you going?"

"Have dinner with a friend."

"I want to join you."

Summer was unwilling to agree, but she was unable to persuade him and gave up.

When Jessica saw Douglas, she asked Summer, "Who is he? He is so handsome. He isn't like a family member from the Jarretts."

Douglas was a beautiful child with curly hair. His skin was fair. He was childish. He was cute when he laughed.

Douglas introduced himself, "My name is Douglas."

Jessica spat out the water in surprise.
