Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 172

In the dining hall

Summer sat down to eat while Leonardo crossed his arms and stared at her.

He looked indifferent as usual, but his eyes were exceptionally focused on Summer, as if he hadn't seen her for years.

Summer felt that Leonardo was too clingy. She became awkward to be seen by him.

So, she asked him, "What happened between you and Laura?"

She believed in Leonardo, but she still wanted to figure out what was going on.

How did Laura find Leonardo's villa? And what about the news?

"Have you seen the news?" Leonardo did not answer her question but asked.

"Yeah." Summer had another spoonful of porridge and slightly narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

Ava was really good at cooking.

Summer could cook, but Ava was way better at it than her.

Leonardo observed her expression and only found that she was very satisfied about the porridge. There was no sign of anger at all.

He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you angry?"

"It's not true. Why should I get angry?" She just felt it disgusting.

Leonardo's name was related to another woman, which made her unhappy.

When Summer thought about it, she poked the porridge in the bowl with her spoon. Now, she was really a little angry.

Leonardo stared at her, not missing her eyes and actions. "Do you trust me so much?"

"Why not? If you accept anyone getting close to you, like Laura, you might as well choose Vicky."

Summer was just making an analogy, but Leonardo's expression went dark.

Summer carefully glanced at him and found that he was very unhappy. She was a little puzzled. What did she say to piss him off?

"Summer, listen carefully."

"What?" Was he going to scold her?

"Don't say anything like asking me to find another woman."

Summer was thinking how to retort him if Leonardo scolded her. But he only said this.

She felt a little helpless. This man was sometimes even more stubborn than her.

"I'm just making an analogy."

"Not even if it's an analogy."

"Alright." Summer was persuaded and was not that firm.

Then Leonardo turned serious and told Summer the truth.

He slightly frowned and said, "Laura may be suspecting my identity."

Summer had eaten enough. Hearing this, she put down her spoon and looked at him. "Then what should we do?"

Leonardo pondered for a moment and said, "Let's wait."

"How long do we wait?" Summer couldn't keep up with Leonardo's thoughts.

Was that meaning Leonardo was going to appearing in the public?

Then, the fact would scotch rumors that the eldest young master of Emersons was disfigured.

And what followed would be that countless women approaching Leonardo.

Summer felt a little weird.

It was as if she had hidden a treasure that only she could see. Only she knew how good this treasure was. However, one day, her treasure appeared in the public and was coveted by more people.

This was not a good feeling.

"Are you full?" Leonardo suddenly asked.

Summer nodded. "Yeah."

Then she was pulled back to the bedroom by Leonardo. The moment they entered the room, they kissed intensely.

The subtle emotions in Summer's heart were washed away by this intimate kiss.

Summer felt that it was too exaggerated when she heard people say that absence sharpened love.

But after these days, Summer felt the same way.

Summer's obedience and cooperation made Leonardo even happier.

When they were about to come, Leonardo coaxed her in his hoarse voice. "Call me."

"Babe...!"

...

Summer returned by the morning flight. She only had a bowl of porridge and was brought into the room by Leonardo.

When she woke up, it was already night.

The headlights in the room were not turned on. She only saw a faint light at the side.

Summer turned around and saw Leonardo sitting on the sofa not far from the bed. He was reading the documents. The floor lamp next to him had a dim yellow light.

Leonardo had taken a shower. His hair hung limply over his forehead. He was wearing a comfortable housecoat. He no longer looked aggressive under the warm yellow light. Instead, he looked very gentle.

Summer stared at him for a while and couldn't help but smile. Then she lightly rolled over.

This small movement attracted Leonardo's attention.

He raised his head and looked over. His eyes, which had been dark and indifferent, were filled with genuine gentleness.

He asked in a deep voice, "Are you hungry?"

"Yeah." Summer opened her mouth and found that her voice was very hoarse. So, she just nodded.

Leonardo put down the documents and walked over. He sat down on the bed, bent down and kissed on her forehead.

When he was about to leave, he found Summer staring at him with her beautiful cat-like eyes.

He liked her eyes the most. They were extremely beautiful. When she looked at him, he always felt that she was seducing him.

He couldn't help but bend down and kiss her again.

Summer almost couldn't breathe. She struggled and pushed him away. "I'm very hungry!"

Leonardo also breathed faster. "Do you want to eat downstairs or here?"

"Downstairs!" If she had it here, Ava would know what she and Leonardo had done in the room this afternoon.

Seeing through her thoughts, Leonardo smiled. He sounded joyful and proud.

Summer felt that he needed a lesson, so she punched him twice on the chest.

...

The next day.

Summer was woken up by the phone call.

She reached out to look for her phone, but Leonardo found it before her and hung it up.

He pulled her back into his arms. "It's early. Sleep a little longer."

So, Summer closed her eyes and was about to go back to sleep when her phone rang again.

Summer had been woken up once. This time, she was completely awake. Seeing that she had been woken up, Leonardo took her phone over with a bad expression and wanted to turn it off.

"No, give me the phone." Summer took the phone from Leonardo and answered it.

Jessica's voice came from the other end of the phone. She sounded excited and angry. "You're still asleep? Get up now. Let's go to the hotel to catch Leonardo!"

"What? Who?" Summer was confused. Who was she going to catch early in the morning?

Jessica sounded more anxious. "Your husband, Leonardo!"

Summer glanced at Leonardo who was leaning forward to kiss her.
