Predestined Marriage

Chapter 201: The Shameless Mistress

Leonardo paused, and his expression also changed.

He put down his chopsticks and reached out for his phone, but Summer stopped him.

"You can go on and eat. Carl should have already settled it." Actually, Summer wasn't so sure whether

it was settled or not. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Previously, she thought that Leonardo instructed Carl to do it, so she naturally believed that Leonardo

would definitely fix it. Thus, she did not pay attention it anymore and focused on preparing the dinner.

However, Leonardo still pulled out his phone and called Carl.

Carl had been busy all day and had just fallen asleep. He was woken up by the phone. He didn't even

see who it was from and asked loudly, "Who is it? Don’t you know it’s late?"

"It's me," Leonardo simply answered. Hearing his voice, Carl was completely awake.

Carl was silent for a moment and his tone softened a lot, "Leonardo, look at the time. If you don't need

to sleep, you can investigate the matter of Adams becoming the trending topic. Summer is also

involved. I have been working on this for the past few days and didn't even have time to have a good

sleep."

Carl and Leonardo were close, so he wouldn't beat around the bush when it came to serious matters.

"I don't know what the person behind this wants, but he definitely knows about the relationship between

Summer and you. Otherwise, he wouldn't involve Summer every time and make it more difficult for us

to deal with it...."

Summer only noticed that Leonardo looked serious the whole time. She didn't hear what Carl said.

After Leonardo hung up the phone, they sat there silently for a long time.

"I saw Adams in the company today," Summer broke the silence.

Hearing this, Leonardo suddenly looked up at her, and he frowned unconsciously.

"Don't worry, I didn't say anything," Summer said with a faint smile, "And he didn't mention the trending

either."

Leonardo stood up and said, "I'm full." Then he walked away.

Summer also stood up and followed up. She said loudly, "Leonardo, stop deceiving yourself. You have

clearly found out that Adams is behind all this, but you don't want to believe it. So you have been lying

to me, saying that you haven't found anything."

Summer had been holding these words in her heart for a long time.

Leonardo stopped and turned to look at Summer.

He did not deny it or admit it. Instead, he just said coldly, "I will take care of it."

There was no feeling in his eyes at all.

Summer trembled. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

Leonardo's eyes were so cold that Summer felt that he was very unfamiliar and distant at the moment.

Summer froze.

Perhaps, he had never opened his heart to her.

He had something on his mind that he didn't want to tell her. When she asked about it, he put on a cold

face and seemed to be reprimanding her for meddling in other people's affairs...

That night, the two of them lay on the same bed, back to back. They didn't hug or talk.

...

There were still a lot of things to do in the company, and Summer was busy as always.

She didn't sleep well last night, so Summer made herself a cup of coffee in the pantry at lunch break.

It wasn't until the water in the cup overflowed that Summer came back to earth.

After taking a sip of coffee, she took out her phone and wanted to check on Weibo.

It was Friday. The blogger who said that he would announce Summer's identity did not make any move.

It was probably because Carl took care of it the day before.

She clicked on the icon, but before she looked at the content, a phone call came in.

It was Carl.

Why would Carl call her?

Was it because he couldn't find Leonardo again?

Summer answered the phone. Before she could say anything, Carl's anxious voice came from the

phone, "Summer, where are you?"

"I'm in the pantry. What's wrong?" Hearing his anxious voice, Summer thought that something had

happened to Jessica. She was immediately worried.

However, Carl said, "Don't move. I'll come to see you right now. Don't hang up the phone."

Why did it sound like something was wrong with her?

Summer asked tentatively, "Did something go wrong?"

She thought that it would be about Leonardo or Jessica. But Carl told her not to move and said that he

would come to see her.

"Don't ask. I'll be right over."

Carl was panting, as if he was running.

Recently, Summer was always on the trending topic. She was already used to it.

She realized that something serious must have happened. Otherwise, Carl wouldn't act like this.

Instead of hanging up, she exited the call interface and opened Weibo.

When she saw that her photos were everywhere on Weibo, her ears buzzed and she was stunned on

the spot. Her mind went blank and she froze for a long time.

There were individual photos of her.

Photos of her and Leonardo in intimate postures.

Photos of her eating with Adams.

Photos of her entering and leaving Tip Top Media Company.

And photos of her when she pretended to be ugly.

Also ... a photo of a marriage certificate.

It was very clear, but she looked at it several times before she finally realized that the two names on it

were Leonardo Emerson and Vicky Jarrett.

The phone suddenly slipped down from her hand and fell to the ground, as if it was extremely heavy.

At this moment, the pantry door was pushed open.

Summer did not seem to have heard it. She remained the posture before and did not move at all.

Seeing Summer's face, Carl realized that she had found out about it.

He quickly walked over and saw the phone on the ground.

The phone didn't break although it fell on the ground. The screen was still on, showing the photo of the

marriage certificate.

Carl picked it up and turned it off. He pulled Summer's arm and walked towards the door.

"Let's go out first."

Summer followed Carl like an unconscious puppet.

Security guards outside the door escorted them out of the building. Behind them, the employees of Tip

Top Media Company were pointing at Summer.

Although they didn't scolded her loudly and did not throw things at her, Summer felt like she had been

stripped naked in front of everyone.

The first few trending topics on Weibo were all related to her.

And the first topic on the list was: # The Shameless Mistress.

Before, she was forced to marry into the Emersons. Now, she was forced to become "the mistress".

She did not know what she had done wrong.

She just had a mother who didn't love her, and she just decided to love a legitimate husband. How did

it end up like this?
