Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 140

The shameless man grabbed her hand and touched her face as soon as he got in the car.

Sitting in front was Tim and Douglas. Where did she put her face?

When she put away his hand away for so many times, the shameless man smiled and said, "You are too obedient today. I just want to touch you."

Summer looked at him with a fake smile. "Am I a cat? You want to touch me when you think I am obedient?"

"Of course not." Leonardo gently pinched her hand and said, "It's not enough to touch you once."

Summer twitched the corner of her mouth and turned to look at the two people sitting in front of her.

He noticed that both Tim and Douglas were sitting upright, staring straight ahead.

But their shoulders were trembling. They were laughing!

Summer was so angry that she kicked Leonardo.

It was not very painful.

But Leonardo also knew that he couldn't piss her off enough.

...

When the car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Summer was the first to jump out of the car. It was as if a ghost was chasing after her and she entered the villa at a high speed.

Douglas followed closely behind.

However, a voice that sounded like from the King of Hell came from behind him, "Douglas, go to the study and wait for me."

Douglas stopped and turned to look at Leonardo with a fawning smile, "Leonardo, I will definitely not fight next time. I know I was wrong."

"I know." Leonardo replied noncommittally, but he did not say that he could not go to the study.

Therefore, Douglas finally went to the study.

He stayed in the office uneasily for a while before Leonardo came in.

"Tell me, why are you fighting?" Leonardo walked straight to sit opposite Douglas, his tone extremely calm.

Normally, Leonardo looked cold and indifferent, but people who were familiar with him could still easily sense his emotional changes.

"I had a quarrel with my classmates. We fought with each other." After Douglas finished speaking, he said seriously, "Leonardo, I really know that I was wrong. I won't fight with my classmates casually in the future."

His pledge and admission of wrongdoing did not stop Leonardo from asking, "I asked you why you fought."

Leonardo stared fixedly at Douglas. His black eyes were so calm that no emotions could be seen, but they revealed a trace of insight.

Facing his gaze, Douglas felt that he could not conceal anything from Leonardo.

However, he knew best that if Leonardo heard that, he would definitely feel sad.

Douglas stopped talking, and Leonardo didn't want to urge him.

Douglas had lived with Leonardo for a long time when he was a young boy. He had always been a troublemaker since then, and Leonardo often cleaned up his mess.

However, he never took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Today, not only did he take the initiative to admit his mistake, even Summer kept quiet about this matter.

Summer was a bit stubborn. In her opinion, fighting between children should be very serious, so she should say something to him. But she didn't.

The first call she made to him was probably to inform him about Douglas’ fight at school.

But afterwards, she didn't say a word.

This was weird.

"Aren't you going to tell me?" After waiting for a while, Leonardo saw that he hadn't opened his mouth yet, so he calmly said, "Then I'll call your head teacher."

Douglas raised his head and said, "No!"

If Leonardo called his teacher, he would definitely know it, and if someone else told him about it, it would be better for Douglas to say it.

Douglas gritted his teeth and said, "They said that my aunt was ... killed."

His voice was so low that he could hardly hear the word in the middle.

He was still young, but he knew a lot about the ways of people.

After Douglas said that, the room fell into a suffocating silence.

Douglas clenched his hands and did not dare to speak, nor did he dare to look at Leonardo's expression.

After a while, he heard Leonardo's slightly hoarse voice, "Go out."

"Leonardo... " Douglas raised his head to look at Leonardo.

However, Leonardo had already stood up and walked towards the desk, with his back to Douglas.

Douglas looked at him worriedly and turned around to leave.

Summer just happened to change her clothes and came out of the room, ready to go downstairs.

When she passed by Leonardo's study, she saw Douglas coming out.

Summer hurriedly walked up and said, "Is your cousin looking for you?"

Douglas nodded and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I told him..."

Summer was surprised. After a few seconds, she said, "Then he..."

Douglas shook his head.

Summer looked at the tightly shut door of the study and hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door. "Leonardo, what do you want to eat tonight?" She asked.

The people inside did not answer her question.

Douglas said worriedly, "My mother said that after my aunt's accident, my cousin locked himself up in his room for a long time without seeing anyone."

However, Summer was thinking of something else.

Leonardo's reaction was very unusual. In other words, what Marco said was true?

Although she wasn't clear about that matter, she had also heard of Leonardo's mother.

His mother came from a scholarly family, the most beautiful and talented upper-class socialite in Hoover City.

In the end, she married into the Emerson family.

Her life was like a legend. Was she really ... humiliated to death in the end?

Summer's warm throat was somewhat dry. She asked with difficulty, "What happened afterwards?"

"Afterwards?" Douglas scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly, "My mother said it was because of me. I was just born. And my cousin didn't talk to others at that time, but he likes to tease me. When I was young, I spent more time with my cousin than with my parents."

Summer had never thought that there would be such a thing.

However, from the way Douglas and Leonardo usually got along, she could also feel that they were very close.

When Leonardo was lying to her, he said that he was "Douglas", which was enough to show that Douglas was a very important person to him.

Summer glanced at the tightly shut door again. She did not knock on the door. She turned around and went downstairs to the kitchen.

Leonardo's taste was a little heavy, so Summer specially cooked a few salty and spicy dishes.

After finishing it, she went upstairs and knocked on the door of the study, "It's time to eat."

No one answered after waiting for a long time.

Just when Summer thought that Leonardo would not speak again, Leonardo's hoarse and cold voice sounded from inside, "Don't bother me."

Summer was slightly stunned.

Regardless of whether he was "Douglas" who had treated her neither coldly nor warmly at first, or Leonardo later, he had never spoken to her in such a tone.

Leonardo was just in a bad mood, so she didn't mind.

Summer continued to ask with a good temper, "Then shall I bring them in?"
