Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 184

Leonardo's face didn't soften as Alexander said those sincere words. Instead, his face became even colder.

He stood up. His voice was also cold, just like his expression. "Summer won't come to work tomorrow."

His words left no room for negotiation. It felt like he was just informing Alexander.

Alexander didn't speak.

What else could he say?

Leonardo was not someone he could deal with. He thought that after he returned, the most difficult person to deal with would be Michael, but it turned out to be Leonardo.

Leonardo opened the door and saw Summer standing outside.

Summer had been listening at the door for a while, but she didn't hear clearly what they were talking about.

"I...." she wanted to explain that she didn't come back to eavesdrop. But just as she spoke, Leonardo suddenly leaned over and hugged her.

He exerted much strength that Summer felt a little pain, but she could endure it.

She took a deep breath and felt that something was wrong with Leonardo. She whispered to him, "What happened?"

Leonardo hugged her for a moment and let go of her. He held her hand and walked forward, "Go pack up your things. You don't need to come here from tomorrow on."

Summer was curious about what Leonardo had said to Alexander, but Leonardo's expression and depressed mood showed that now wasn't the time to ask about it.

She quickly packed up her things and said to Leonardo, "Let's go."

Without saying a word, Leonardo took the box from Summer. He held the box with one hand and held Summer’s hand with the other.

Summer felt sweet. Even if he was in a bad mood, he was still careful enough to help her with the box.

Fortunately, there weren't many people in the company now. Those people who were still working overtime were all higher-ups, and they had their own offices.

However, there was a saying that one couldn't avoid his enemies.

Summer and Leonardo walked to wait for the elevator.

Summer suddenly remembered that there was a special elevator for Leonardo in the Tip Top Media Company. She couldn't help but turn around and ask curiously, "Have you ever waited for the elevator?"

Leonardo didn't answer and only gave her a glance, as if he was asking what Summer thought of this.

Summer thought....

She thought that Leonardo had never waited for the elevator.

The elevator was finally here.

The elevator door opened.

Just as Summer was about to walk in, she saw Vicky walking out of the elevator.

The reason she came into the Jarrett Group was because she was worried that Leonardo would run into Vicky.

And her worry became true right now!

Summer subconsciously stood in front of Leonardo and then stepped back.

Leonardo could only take two steps back and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Vicky's eyes were filled with anger at the sight of Summer. But when she saw Leonardo standing behind Summer, her expression immediately changed.

And her voice became so sweet that it gave people goose pimples.

"Mr. Emerson, nice to meet you," she said and pulled her coat slightly down, pretending that she was not doing it purposely.

She liked to put on a low-cut dress under her coat. As she pulled her coat down, her fair and beautiful cleavage was revealed, looking very sexy and charming.

At the exact moment, another elevator was here.

But Leonardo didn't even look at Vicky and pulled Summer into another elevator.

Vicky was embarrassed. But she didn't give up and followed them into the elevator.

"Mr. Emerson, I feel claustrophobic in the elevator. Can you ... give me a hand...?" she purposely moved close to Leonardo and said in a sweet voice.

She said those last words so slowly, as if she was about to die.

"I can help you." Summer walked over and shouldered Vicky aside. She held Vicky with a lot of strength and said, "Well, I didn't know you suffered from claustrophobia!"

Vicky's face was distorted by rage. She gritted her teeth and whispered in Summer's ear, "Go away!"

"You seduced my husband and asked me to go away? Do you think I'm an idiot?" Summer didn’t back down and glared at Vicky.

Vicky sneered, "Yours? Don't forget that the person who is engaged to Leonardo is me!"

"But his wife is me!" Summer felt that Vicky was simply out of her mind.

She was Leonardo's legal wife. When Leonardo was "Douglas", it was obvious that he had no interest in Vicky. However, Vicky seemed to ignore this and was still unwilling to give up!

Vicky said proudly, "Is that so? Where is your marriage certificate? Can I see it?"

How could Summer show Vicky her marriage certificate right here in the elevator?

Besides, it seemed that even she herself hadn't seen her marriage certificate.

"If you can't take it out, get out of my way!" After Vicky finished speaking, she fiercely stepped on Summer's foot.

Summer didn't notice that and was stepped on by Vicky's high heels just like that.

Vicky's high heels were thin, and she exerted so much strength that Summer felt great pain, even though she wore snow boots.

Although Leonardo had been silent, he kept an eye on Summer all the time.

Actually, when Vicky moved closer to him, he could just push her away.

However, when seeing that Summer prevented Vicky from getting close to him, he became extremely happy and didn't stop her.

But now he was irritated when he saw Vicky hurt Summer.

Although Summer's foot hurt, she didn't move. She lifted her foot to kick Vicky for revenge, but Leonardo suddenly put the box into her arms.

She looked at Leonardo in confusion.

Leonardo pressed some buttons on the elevator and then pulled her out.

The elevator door closed behind them.

Summer didn't know what was going on. She turned around and looked at the elevator door with total confusion.

The next second, Vicky's scream came from inside.

The elevator was rumbling.

"The elevator ... fell off?" Summer asked uncertainly.

There was an underground parking lot in the Jarrett Group. So the elevator would finally stop at the 2nd Basement.

Leonardo replied indifferently, "Yes."

Summer recalled that Leonardo had pressed a few buttons when in the elevator....

That was how he made the elevator fall off?

That would work?

Summer suddenly felt frightened.

She thought that one could offend anyone but Leonardo.

After getting back to the car, Leonardo said to her, "Take off your shoe."

Summer was confused for a moment, and then she understood that Leonardo had probably seen Vicky step on her.

"I'm fine."

Leonardo ignored her words and reached out to grab her ankle. He put her leg onto the seat and took off her shoe....
