Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 171

Summer was a little embarrassed, but she still thought that it was safer to be careful.

She pulled open the door and got into the car.

Adams was driving. If she sat in the back seat, it would make him look like a driver. It was not polite, so Summer sat in the passenger seat.

The car drove forward steadily. Summer took out her phone and called Jessica back.

But Jessica didn't answer it. It was hung up automatically.

Summer felt a little uneasy. Did something happen to Jessica again?

Just as she was worried about Jessica, Jessica called her back.

Summer picked up the phone. "Jessica."

"Summer, where are you? Why did you turn off your phone?" Jessica sounded serious.

Did something bad happen again?

"I was on the plane. What's going on?" Summer was a little nervous.

"You haven't seen the news, have you?" Jessica paused a moment, as if she didn't know how to say that.

"What news?" A bad premonition arose in Summer's heart.

"Laura, she..." Jessica did not know how to say this. She said irritably, "I'll send you the pictures. You see them yourself."

The phone was hung up, and Summer received a WeChat message.

She opened it and saw a few pictures that Jessica had sent her. They were very long pictures. And Summer could vaguely tell that they were screenshots of some news and Weibo posts.

After Summer clicked on the picture and zoomed in, she finally saw the contents.

"Stealth date between an actress and a young master of an aristocratic family."

The news were all speculations, and there was no valid proof. However, Summer recognized the woman and the villa behind her in the next picture.

She had seen Laura several times and had a deep impression of her. So, she immediately recognized that the woman wearing sunglasses was Laura.

And the villa behind Laura belonged to Leonardo!

Summer suddenly remembered that when Laura went to look for her at the Jarrett Group, she uncharacteristically apologized and bought a big brand as compensation.

At that time, Summer thought that Laura had other purposes. But she did not know that Laura was aimed at Leonardo. She thought that it was done when she rejected Laura. However, Laura even went to Leonardo's villa.

Just as she thought, even Leonardo was an "ugly and impotent" cripple in others' eyes, the fact that he was the young master of the Emersons was attractive enough for a woman to take the initiative to seduce him.

Summer had a complicated feeling about it.

Leonardo had said that he could not come to pick her up because of an emergency. So, this was what he was talking about?

The other screenshots of Weibo posts were analysis of Laura's identity and the owner of the villa.

The long Weibo post seemed very reasonable and well-founded. If Summer had not known Leonardo's arrogant temperament, she would also believe that he was a womanizer and never refused anybody even though he was impotent.

When Leonardo was in bed, he was indeed like a wolf.

He wouldn't refuse nobody?

No, Leonardo could get any woman he wanted.

Summer refuted the post one by one in her heart, while Jessica kept sending her messages.

"I knew that Vicky and Laura wouldn't do any good together. That woman wants too much!"

"If I had known it earlier, I would have screwed her and got her out of the entertainment industry!"

"Summer? Did you see my text? Anyway, even if Leonardo wants to cheat, he wouldn't find someone like Laura. At the very least, he would find a super star, who must be young, pretty, and famous."

Summer didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was there anyone who comforted others like Jessica?

Seeing Summer's expression changing, Adams asked with concern, "What happened?"

"Nothing." Summer looked up at Adams while editing a message and sent it to Jessica.

She asked, "Have all the news and Weibo posts been taken down?"

The next second, Jessica replied, "Of course."

That was good.

"I'm on my way home. I'll talk to Leonardo when I get home." Summer replied to Jessica's message and put down her phone.

"How is Douglas?" Summer hadn't seen Douglas these days, and she missed him.

"I've got a cook for him. He just plays games or watches movies at home all day. And he told me a few days ago that he wanted to go back to Leonardo's place." When Adams said this, he helplessly smiled and said, "I just feel that I'm not a good brother."

Although Douglas had been complaining to Adams that Leonardo was fierce, cold, and didn't give him pocket money, he wanted to go back to Leonardo's house only after a few days at his place.

Douglas used excuses like that he wanted to eat food Summer cooked, or that he had forgotten to bring his textbooks.

Anyway, Douglas was more willing to live with Leonardo.

Summer did not want Adams to send her home. She got off his car in the downtown and took a taxi back to the villa.

"Good day, Mrs. Emerson!"

As soon as she got out of the car, the bodyguard greeted her and came to take her luggage.

As Summer walked inside, she asked, "Where is Mr. Emerson?"

The bodyguard was honest and replied, "Mr. Emerson left early in the morning."

When they were about to enter the hall, Ava came out and greeted Summer. "I heard them calling you from inside. Did you come back by the early flight? I guess you didn't eat in the morning. I cooked porridge this morning and Mr. Emerson didn't eat much. I'll re-warm a bowl for you."

"Thank you, Ava."

Summer thanked her and went upstairs to change her clothes.

After she changed her clothes and opened the door, she was caught in a warm and big embrace.

Summer smelled a familiar aura and hugged the man back.

Leonardo lowered his head and kissed her gently on her hair. "How did you get back? Tim said that he didn't see you at the airport."

Summer did not hide it. "I met Adams there. He gave me a ride and I took a taxi back in the downtown."

Then she could feel Leonardo's emotions changed, as if he was dissatisfied.

"Adams didn't do it on purpose at the dinner. I happened to meet him at the airport. He said he could give me a ride, and I couldn't refuse."

Summer patiently explained to Leonardo. But she could not deny that she was angry with Leonardo at that time.

He had promised that he was going to pick her up. She thought that she could see Leonardo after getting off the plane. But in the end, he said that he couldn't come.

"Alright." Leonardo replied indifferently and lowered his head to kiss Summer.

Summer pushed him away, "Ava is waiting for me to go down and eat. I didn't have breakfast. And I'm very hungry."

Hearing this, Leonardo was still a little unwilling to let her go. But he didn't do anything else in the end.
