Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 158

Summer sneered, "You don’t want to answer, because you know it clear that you approached me as we looked like."

Douglas told Summer that Rachel's last name was Hill.

Leonardo treated her well and he was special to her. It was not because she was Summer, but because she looked like a woman named Rachel.

All this time, he was looking at another woman through Summer.

His kindness towards Summer was because he missed another woman.

Summer had never owned anything. All those belonged to Rachel.

Even though Summer though all of that through, she still hoped Leonardo deny it.

She hoped she could hear the word "no" from him.

However, Leonardo did not say it.

He turned around and slammed the door. He was in panic.

Summer leaned against the headboard and stared at the ceiling.

She raised her head to avoid tears falling down her cheeks.

...

It was Monday.

Summer leaned on her walking stick to go to the Jarrett Group.

Because Summer's grandfather came back to take charge of the group, the group was being reorganized and everyone was busy.

Although Summer's foot was injured, she was assigned a job. But her job was much easier than others'.

Time passed quickly. When she finished her work, it was seven o'clock in the evening.

Her colleagues were discussing where to have dinner.

Noticing that Summer was there, they asked her out of politeness or sincerity, "Summer, would you like to join us?"

"OK," Summer said with a smile.

They froze for a moment. It seemed that they were a little surprised.

However, Summer couldn't go to dinner with them because Jessica called Summer and asked Summer to bring clothes to her.

Summer answered the phone and felt worried, "What happened?"

"It's a long story. I'm trapped in the dressing room. I'm naked. Someone might come in at any time."

Jessica sounded pretty calm, but Summer was still nervous. "Send me the address. I'll be right over."

Summer recalled that Jessica often complained to her after Jessica became an actress. Jessica told Summer how those people teased newcomers and how shameless they were.

Jessica even said, "I want to give up. Even if I didn't work, I would live a good life."

But the next morning, Jessica got up and rushed to work before dawn.

Jessica liked acting.

A person who had no desires could live a simple life.

However, if he had desires, he was destined to embark on a difficult journey.

It was like that she was destined to embark on an uneven path after she decided to accept Leonardo.

Even if she would get injured or abandoned, that came down to her choice.

If she decided to give up, would she return to the past?

Summer did not think much about it. She took a taxi to a mall and bought clothes for Jessica.

...

The place where Jessica shot the advertisement was in a temporary studio. Even the dressing room was temporary, so it was not safe.

After Summer sneaked in, she searched for a long time before she found the dressing room.

She whispered, "Jessica?"

Finally, she found Jessica in a small dressing room in the corner.

"Summer, are you here?" Jessica's voice was hoarse.

When Summer entered, she felt that it was cold in the dressing room. Those people even turned off the heating. They went too far! They were trying to kill Jessica!

Summer handed her the clothes.

After a few minutes, Jessica’s voice sounded, "Damn it. My hands are numbed with the cold. I can't put on my clothes."

Summer felt that her worries were unnecessary.

Summer went in and helped her dress.

After getting dressed, Jessica smiled and said, "If you were a man, I would marry you."

Summer snorted, "You wish! If I were a man, I would find a woman like me."

Jessica kept silent.

When they were about to leave, they heard noises.

"Where is Jessica?"

"Check the room one by one. It's cold. She can't escape without clothes."

"These women have various ways to tease others."

"I've seen Jessica's movies. She didn't take the cosmetic surgery. She's well proportionated. I might be able to touch her later…."

Jessica couldn't help but plan to rush out.

Summer stopped her and whispered, "Wait for them to come over. Then we can beat them up and send them to the police station. If you go out now, you'll scare them away."

Jessica stopped in indignation.

The two men soon found out the dressing room where Jessica and Summer were.

One man was in front. The latter man was holding a camera.

Jessica couldn't wait and punched the man. The man with the camera behind saw things went wrong and wanted to run away.

Summer jumped over with her walking stick and knocked his head hard.

Jessica got them under control. She caught one man in hand and stepped on another man. "The person who hired you to take my naked photo must be an idiot. Isn't it just a photo? There’s no need to take so much effort."

Only hearing what Jessica said, did Summer begin to feel afraid.

Fortunately, the person who wanted to harm Jessica was an idiot.

...

Jessica and Summer called the police and went to the police station.

The policemen looked at Summer and Jessica who were intact and then looked at the two men whose faces were bruised. The policemen felt strange.

Girls nowadays couldn't be underestimated.

Before they finished their records, Leonardo and Carl arrived.

Carl seemed to have rushed over. His hair was in a mess. He wore a coat. The collar of the turtleneck was rumpled.

He ran over to Jessica and asked nervously, "Jessica, are you all right?"

Jessica said softly, "I'm fine….I was just scared…."

Summer trembled a little. Although she had heard Jessica spoke in this tone, Summer got goose bumps.

However, Carl believed Jessica. "Don't be afraid. I'll help you kill them!"

One of the policemen said, "This is the police station."

Jessica turned to look at the policemen, sniffed, and said weakly, "I didn't hit them. They fell by themselves."

Speaking of acting, no one could compare to Jessica.

"That's right. How could we beat them up? Besides, my feet are injured…." Summer said seriously. The policemen actually believed her.
