Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 363

Hearing what Carl said, Leonardo replied indifferently, "Are you done?"

Seeing that Leonardo was about to leave, Carl could only follow him. "Leonardo, just hear me out. Why do you want to leave every time I start saying something?"

"My time is valuable. I don't want to waste it on meaningless things," Leonardo said as he walked toward the car.

Suddenly, he turned to look at Carl. "Are you trying to go to the Emerson's with me?"

Carl took a deep breath but finally couldn't help shouting angrily, "What the hell are you talking about?"

Leonardo ignored Carl and turned to instruct the bodyguard behind him without any emotion. "Remember to put this gentleman on the blacklist of Emerson Group."

After saying this, he bent down and sat in the car.

The black car roared off, leaving Carl stamping his foot in anger on the spot. "Leonardo!"

Sometimes, he felt that it wasn't because Leonardo lost his memory, but he was possessed by the evil.

In the past, although Leonardo wasn't quite good-tempered, he was at least prudent. Now, he was unwilling to listen to a bit more at all.

BANG!

Behind Carl came the sound of a car door open and closed.

Subsequently, the clattering sound made by high-heel shoes could be heard.

Carl turned around and saw Kate, who closely resembled Leonardo, causing a strong aversion in his heart.

Kate crossed her arms and said in a disdainful tone, "It's you again."

Carl's expression turned cold. "Kate, have you done something to Leonardo?"

"What a joke! Leonardo is my younger brother. What could I do to him? It's because his brain was seriously injured that he lost his memory. It has been three years, but he can recall nothing. This is meant to be. You shouldn't come looking for him again in the future."

After warning him, Kate snorted coldly, turned around and went back into the car.

She was just about to start the car when she saw Carl and Leonardo.

She waited until Leonardo left and got out of the car to inform Carl.

Carl was quite persistent. Leonardo didn’t remember him over the past three years, but he insisted on seizing every opportunity to approach him.

But what was the use of it?

Leonardo couldn't remember him at all.

Thinking of this, Kate revealed a satisfied smile and drove away.

In the car.

Leonardo was taking a nap leaning against the seat when he suddenly opened his eyes and asked the driver, "How many times did Carl come for me in the company this month?"

"Maybe more than a dozen times." Actually, the driver could not remember clearly, so he could only give a vague answer cautiously.

Hearing this, Leonardo did not say anything anymore.

Only when the car stopped at the gate of the Emerson's old manor did the driver remind Leonardo, "Mr. Emerson, we're here."

As soon as the car stopped, a bodyguard came over and opened the door for Leonardo.

Just as Leonardo arrived at the entrance to the hall, he heard a child's babbling.

A little girl was shouting aloud in a childish voice, "You ... That's not right ... My big castle..."

Leonardo entered the hall and saw the chubby girl, Rosie. She was sitting on the ground, surrounded by servants who were helping her building a castle.

She seemed to be muttering something, but she spoke so quickly that the servants were all confused, completely unable to understand what she was talking about.

At this time, Amber walked over with some fruit. "Rosie, get up and eat some fruit."

Rosie buried her head in building the castle and articulated a reply, "I don't want to eat."

Amber looked unhappy as she pointed at the castle in front of Rosie and instructed the servants, "Put these things away."

After this, she crouched down beside Rosie, picked her up and then placed her on the sofa.

Rosie wanted to escape, but Amber's face darkened. "Sit down!"

Rosie was frightened by Amber and the expression on her chubby little face froze, her eyes immediately turning red. She pouted and folded her arms, averting her eyes from Amber. "Humph!"

Just as she looked away, she saw Leonardo.

Her eyes immediately lit up. With tears in her eyes, she immediately smiled and sat on the sofa with her short legs dangling from side to side. She swiftly wriggled out of the sofa and ran towards him. "Leonardo!"

It was not long before Rosie celebrated her third birthday. She did better in speaking than her peers, but she always failed to pronounce Leonardo's name correctly.

Leonardo's look remained emotionless, but a trace of warmth flashed across his eyes.

He bent his knees and squatted down, stretching out his arms to catch his daughter who was rushing towards him.

Rosie put her arms around his neck and habitually stretched out her little hands to play with his hair.

Ever since she was young, she was used to grabbing his hair every time he hugged her. She wouldn't exert strength and just thought it was fun to do that.

Amber hadn't noticed Leonardo just now. Now seeing him walking over with Rosie in his arms, she reacted and said, "Leonardo, you're back."

Leonardo threw a casual glance at her, looking indifferent as if she were a stranger.

He hugged Rosie and sat down on the sofa, letting her sit on his lap and face him. He taught her in a serious tone. "Call me Daddy."

Rosie imitated his tone and earnestly called him, "Dad."

"Yes," Leonardo replied and reached out to touch her head.

The next moment, however, Rosie shouted, "Leonardo!"

Her eyes were a little red, and she sat on his lap, smiling smugly.

Leonardo felt that something had come to his mind, but there seemed to be nothing.

Seeing Leonardo staring at her, Rosie thought that he was angry, so she grabbed his hand, slipped off his legs and ran away.

To avoid her falling over, Leonardo reached out to support her when she did that.

How could a child notice these details? As soon as Rosie landed on the ground, she quickly ran away.

Two servants followed her closely.

Leonardo fixed his gaze on Rosie until she ran out of his sight.

That was her common practice. Every time she irritated him, she would quickly sneak away and find a place to hide.

Amber looked at how Leonardo treated Rosie with embarrassment.

But very quickly, she looked the same as usual and tried to soften her tone. "Leonardo, have you eaten?"

Leonardo wasn't nice to her, with coldness and alienation in his deep voice. "Since you don't know how to take care of a child, you'd better not come here for Rosie again."
