Predestined Marriage
Chapter 202: Adams Was More Important than Her

Carl brought Summer out of Tip Top Media Company through the back door.

There was a black car waiting for them outside.

When they came near, a bodyguard opened the car door for them. Carl pushed Summer in and looked around for a while before he entered the car.

The driver started the car as soon as he got in.

After bringing Summer out successfully, Carl heaved a sigh of relief.

However, when he turned to look at Summer, he become worried again.

"Summer, are you alright?"

Immediately, Carl realized that he had asked a stupid question.

How could Summer be alright after this?

She and Leonardo were a legitimate couple. However, when people saw the picture of the marriage certificate, they just assume that Summer was a mistress.

Even him was disgusted, not to mention Summer.

However, Summer just sat there still with a numb expression on her pale face. It made Carl very worried.

"Don't worry too much. It's not that serious. You have to trust Leonardo. He will handle this matter well," Carl tried to comfort her.

However, he found that his words didn't have any influence on her.

He scratched his head irritably. Women were really complicated.

Summer turned to look at him and the first thing she said after seeing him was, "Where's Leonardo?"

"He...." Carl saw that Summer's expression was strange, but he still told her the truth, "He went to the development zone in the suburbs to inspect. He's heading back and will be here in about an hour." "Alright," Summer replied. She leant against the seat and didn't say anything else.

Seeing her like this, Carl stopped talking.

No matter what he said, it couldn't compare to Leonardo's words.

The car arrived at Carl's place.

Carl lived in a duplex suite in a high-end neighborhood.

As he opened the door, he explained to Summer, "Laura followed Leonardo to his villa last time. There must be a lot of reporters hiding there, so I brought you to my home...."

Carl treated Summer gently concerning her current situation. Normally he would only be so tender to Jessica.

"Thank you," Summer thanked him blankly and followed him inside.

As soon as they entered, Carl asked her, "Do you want some water or other drinks?"

Summer shook her head.

Carl still gave her a cup of water.

After a while, Summer reached her hand towards him and said, "Give me my phone."

"Your phone.... There's nothing interesting to see on your phone. Let's have a chat, alright?" Of course, Carl knew how ugly those people on the Internet would curse, so he didn't want to give her the phone. Summer did not insist.

At this moment, the doorbell rang.

"It could be Leonardo," Carl said as he stood up and opened the door.

Summer finally had a reaction.

She turned to look at the door. However, it was not Leonardo, but Jessica.

Jessica had a quick temper. She directly came over in her acting clothes. Her hair was messy and it could tell that she came here in a rush.

"Summer!" Jessica ran towards Summer. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something. But after a while, she just said, "It will be over." Summer nodded, "I know."

Jessica looked at Summer carefully and didn't replace anything wrong with her, other than her pale complexion.

Summer was strangely calm, which made Jessica even more worried.

She and Carl exchanged glances, and Carl shook his head helplessly. For a moment, the three of them sat in a large room, speechless.

Leonardo arrived an hour later.

After he entered the door, Leonardo walked directly towards Summer.

Just as he was about to reach Summer, he suddenly became hesitant.

He walked to her slowly, squatted down and held her hand, "Summer." Summer looked up. Her face was pale, but she didn't cry, "You're here." "Yes." Leonardo nodded with a hesitant expression.

In the end, he only said two words: "Trust me."

Summer did not say anything.

How could he say that to her?

Leonardo was the person she trusted the most for the whole time.

Even when her name was trending on Weibo, she wasn't afraid, because she knew that Leonardo would fix it.

Summer stared coldly at Leonardo. There was not a trace of a smile in her beautiful eyes at all. They were empty and numb. After a long while, she asked faintly, "Was it him?"

On the side, Carl and Jessica looked at each other. They did not understanding who Summer was talking about.

However, Summer and Leonardo knew very well who it was.

Leonardo knew that Summer was talking about Adams.

Vicky and Adams hooked up before, and she even wanted to enter the show business because of him.

It was reasonable to suspect that Vicky and Adams had colluded in what happened today.

For the first time, Leonardo didn't dare to look directly into Summer's eyes. He pursed his lips, looked away, and clenched his fists tightly.

Suddenly, Summer laughed.

"You still can't believe that he will turn against you," Summer paused and then continued, "Even though he repeatedly drags me into the whirlpool of scandals and revelations, and even though he did this today you still think of him as your big brother...."

"I will give you an explanation," Leonardo interrupted her, his tone extremely firm.

Summer seemed to be finally enraged and her voice became sharp, "I don't need your explanation! What relationship do we have? We have nothing to do with each other!"

Leonardo explained to her, "I know nothing about the marriage certificate."

Summer pulled back her hand and stopped talking.

Even she could think of Adams, so could Leonardo. He must have already found out about the truth.

Leonardo looked cold and heartless, but in fact, he had deep feelings for those close to him.

He didn't want to believe that Adams would do this, so he hadn't laid the cards on the table.

And it allowed Adams to pull the same trick again and again.

Leonardo was not an indecisive person, but he cared too much about Adams, so he always wanted to give Adams another chance.

The more opportunities he gave Adams, the more harm Adams would do to Summer.

In other words, to Leonardo, Adams was more important than her.

Leonardo's indulgence towards Adams led to what happened today.

Carl and Jessica were completely dumbfounded by their conversation.

Jessica said in disbelief, "Adam did this?"

"Why would he do that?" Carl also couldn't believe it.

"I'm a little tired. I want to have a rest," Summer looked at Jessica and asked, "Jessica, can I go to your place?"

Jessica immediately stood up and said, "Of course."
