Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 188

Hearing this, Summer turned to look at Leonardo.

Although she did not know when Charlie had persuaded Leonardo to return to the Emerson Group, she understood what Carl said.

She looked at Leonardo for a while before saying slowly, "You’ve been planned to return to the Emerson Group for a long time, haven’t you? You just never said yes to Grandpa, and deliberately let him have me persuade you, didn't you?"

Before Leonardo replied, she continued, "In this case, Grandpa ... will appreciate me for it."

Summer paused for a moment before saying the last few words.

Leonardo looked at Summer with interest, "Go on. Is there anything else?"

"How did you know that Grandpa would ask me to persuade you?" When she and Leonardo returned to the Emerson's, although Charlie didn’t dislike her, but he wasn't enthusiastic towards her either.

After all, Charlie had a brilliant life. He had met all kinds of people. She was just a young girl. If not for the title of Leonardo's wife, Charlie wouldn't have paid any attention to her.

Leonardo's words confirmed Summer's thoughts.

"If he didn’t come to you, who else could he ask? His son?" Leonardo narrowed his eyes. His tone was so calm that it didn't seem like he was referring to his father, but an irrelevant person.

It seemed that this was indeed the case.

Leonardo had a bad relationship with Michael. Charlie knew about it. Compared to Michael, Summer was closer to Leonardo.

Charlie had no choice but to ask her for help.

Thinking of this, Summer had mixed feelings.

She sighed and said, "I see."

Leonardo laughed and reached out to stroke her hair, "Actually, I was not willing to return to the Emerson Group, but Grandpa was so sincere that he even asked help from you, so I had no choice but to agree."

In fact, returning to the Emerson Group at this juncture was both appropriate and inappropriate for Leonardo.

He had just found some clues about what he was investigating. If he returned to the Emerson Group, he would have to spend some effort and be more cautious when he investigated.

On the other hand, the Emerson Group was a family business. Almost all the Emersons worked for the Emerson Group.

If what had happened to his mother's was related to the Emersons, his return to the Emerson family would be an opportunity for him to investigate the Emersons more conveniently.

Summer would not have thought of these complicated factors for the time being.

Although she was willing to help Leonardo, she actually didn't know much about these things.

As Leonardo spoke, he put his arm on the back of the sofa behind Summer. They sat very close. Without any more intimate movements, the atmosphere between them was so harmonious as if no one could disturb them.

Being single, Carl felt jealous. "Enough. Don't be so affectionate. I'm annoyed! Let's go on and talk about the trending topic."

Ever since Jessica said those words, Carl has barely even met her.

Occasionally, when he saw Jessica in the company, she acted as if she didn't know him and left in a hurry.

Carl wanted to be domineering like Leonardo and just carry Jessica home.

However, the situations of him and Leonardo were different.

Jessica's tone of that day was too decisive. Carl knew her too well. He was afraid, because he knew her.

The more afraid he was, the more cautious he became. He didn't have the guts to act recklessly.

When he couldn't control himself, he would secretly go to the set. He was satisfied just to look at her from afar.

However, after seeing how intimate Leonardo and Summer were, this kind of satisfaction of Carl turned into anxiety and dissatisfaction.

Carl shook his head and stop thinking around, "I think it could be one of our competitors. I suspect that it might be Jessica's former company. They tried to poach Adams from us."

Jessica's former company and Tip Top had always been in a competitive relationship. Jessica's former company even tried to poach Adams.

However, this was their wishful thinking. Besides Adams' relationship with Leonardo, any entertainer who cared about their future would choose Tip Top.

Although Jessica's former company was one of the largest companies in the show business, it was still a bit inferior to Tip Top.

After Carl finished speaking, he noticed that Leonardo kept silent, so he raised his chin and asked him, "Leonardo, what do you think?"

Leonardo pondered for a moment with an indiscernible expression and said, "We can follow this direction to investigate."

After saying that, Leonardo recalled something, "Haven't you contacted with Adams yet?"

"No. That place is undeveloped. We didn't allow him to go there, but he insisted. His phone has no signal reception here, so we can't contact with him. He won't come back for the time being."

Carl felt a little angry when he said this, "Adams is easy-going most of the time. However, when he insists on what he is eager to do, he is so stubborn that no one can change his mind."

Leonardo frowned and did not say anything.

After a while, he said, "It doesn't matter if we can't get in touch with him. Leave it to the Public Relations Department. It's best to settle it within 12 hours."

"It would be better if he could clarify in person." Although Carl also felt that Leonardo was correct, things would be easier if Adams could clarify it in person.

"It's useless." Leonardo was in a bad mood. "The public opinion on the Internet is not targeting Adams. Instead, it is targeting Tip Top. If Adams clarified it, they would feel that Tip Top forced Adams."

Summer frowned when she heard this. No matter what they did, they could not clarify those rumors.

Carl couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! What else can we do?"

"It has been three hours since the incident happened. The netizens are sharing it. I believe that netizens will start to exploit skeletons in the closet of Tip Top in a few hours. Whether those scandals are true or false, they will not care. The one who will lose is Tip Top."

Leonardo analyzed the situation calmly. He was calm without the slightest bit of panic.

Carl had been stressful lately. Hearing Leonardo's words, he collapsed again. "This kind of thing has happened many times. However, this time, Adams and Summer are involved, so it's a bit troublesome."

"Ask the Public Relations Department to deal with it. I have to go," Leonardo said. Then he held Summer's hand and he was about to leave.

Carl wailed behind Leonardo, "Holy shit! Leonardo, you can't leave it to me! I can't do it alone!"

Summer felt that Carl's voice was too miserable. She couldn't help but shiver. She whispered, "Don't you deal with it?"
