Predestined Marriage
Chapter 252: A Plot to Frame Her

If she couldn't leave without permission, her personal liberty would already be infringed.

Summer did not refute.

She was worried about Charlie now.

Although Charlie had sent other women to Leonardo before, which made Summer feel unhappy, she had no grudge against him after her conversation with Charlie earlier. Moreover, Leonardo must be very sad.

Thinking of Leonardo, Summer's expression turned cold.

The corridor was silent again.

Although Alisa wasn't satisfied with Michael's solution, she didn't dare to say anything else.

After all, Charlie was lying in the operating room and no one knew his condition. The most powerful man in the Emerson Family was Michael.

Suddenly, Leonardo said calmly, "Call the police."

His words caught everyone's attention.

Summer turned around and could only see Leonardo's handsome and perfect face. He looked down at the ground.

He looked very calm, but the cold aura emitted from his body showed his current mood.

Then, he said, "Since you suspect that it was not an accident for Grandpa to fall down the stairs. Then call the police and let the police replace out the truth."

He said this to Michael.

Summer clearly saw that Michael was somewhat surprised, as if he was very surprised by Leonardo's suggestion.

This made Summer puzzled.

If Michael really suspected that Charlie falling downstairs was not an accident, calling the police should be considered a normal procedure.

Michael pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, call the police."

Michael asked someone to call the police, but because it was the first day of the New Year, the police did not come over so quickly. The police only asked them to protect the scene. Meanwhile, Summer and the Emersons were still waiting for Charlie in the hospital.

Summer had just got up, and she came with them without having breakfast.

Now that she sat down and waited for Charlie, she was a little hungry.

However, in this situation, even if she was a little hungry, she could only endure it.

The operation that Charlie was going to undergo was expected to be very time-consuming. Summer did not know how long she would have to wait here.

Suddenly, Tim appeared in the corridor with some bodyguards.

He walked straight towards Leonardo, and when he passed Michael, he nodded slightly to greet him.

"Mr. Emerson." Tim stood in front of Leonardo.

Leonardo glanced at Summer and said to Tim, "Bring Mrs. Emerson back."

Summer suddenly turned to look at Leonardo.

Why did he let Tim bring her back?

"I want to wait here for Grandpa to wake up." If Charlie woke up, she would probably be able to get rid of the suspicion.

Almost immediately, Leonardo said in a cold voice, "I don't want to see you here."

"Leonardo!"

"Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are my wife. You are still suspected of pushing Grandpa downstairs. The reason why I asked Tim to bring you back to the old house is to watch you and not let you escape."

Summer could hardly believe that Leonardo had said those words to her.

However, Leonardo's tone was icy cold, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

He didn't even look at Summer at all and directly instructed Tim, "Tim, didn't you hear me? Take Mrs. Emerson to the old house and watch her!"

"Mrs. Emerson, please." Tim walked to Summer and nodded respectfully.

Summer looked at Leonardo deeply with a pale face, and then followed Tim.

She never thought that she would be suspected by the Emersons, and the reason for her suspicion was so ridiculous.

Even Leonardo had said that. It was meaningless for her to stay here.

After leaving the hospital, Summer got into the car with Tim.

"Mrs. Emerson," he said as he started the car, "Mr. Emerson specifically asked me to bring you the food in the box."

Summer was surprised. She glanced at the seat beside her and saw a box. It had a logo of Golden Cauldron Club. It was obvious that Tim had brought it to her from the Golden Cauldron Club. "When did Leonardo call you?" After arriving at the hospital, she stood beside Leonardo and did not see Leonardo calling Tim.

"An hour ago," said Tim after thinking for a while.

Summer recalled that they were still in the old house an hour ago.

Could it be that Leonardo pretended to suspect her?

Summer said with a hint of joy in her voice, "He called you at that time and asked you to bring food to the hospital to pick me up?" "No," Tim explained, "I know what Mr. Emerson likes to eat. The things he told me to bring are not his favorite food."

Leonardo instructed him to bring the food over and let him pick her up. Naturally, the food was specifically prepared for Summer. The joy on Summer's face faded. She didn't say anything else.

She opened the box and found that it was full of her favorite food, but she did not have the mood to eat.

However, even if she didn't want to eat, the baby in her belly was still hungry.

She still didn't believe that Leonardo would suspect her because of Michael and Alisa's words.

And she and Charlie had gotten along very well in these past few days. She had no motive to attack Charlie at all.

There must be some other reasons why he said those in the hospital just now!

After thinking that, Summer felt much better.

As Tim drove, he looked at Summer from the rearview mirror.

Seeing her start eating, Tim heaved a sigh of relief.

Actually, he still didn't understand what had happened. At that time, Leonardo called him and only instructed him to bring food and pick up Summer. He didn't say anything else.

In the hospital just now, Leonardo's words towards Summer made him realize that the matter was not simple, and he vaguely guessed something.

Seeing that Summer had finished eating, he asked, "Mrs. Emerson, why did Mr. Emerson say that you pushed Mr. Charlie downstairs?" Summer sighed and said, "I don't know, but I didn't push him."

All the Emersons went to the hospital.

Summer was sent back to the old house by Tim, and there were only servants along the way.

She remembered what Alisa had said before.

Alisa was right. She was the only outsider in the old house.

Therefore, it was reasonable for them to suspect her.

Instead of returning to her room, she went to the place where Charlie fell.

Tim obeyed Leonardo's instruction and watched her closely.

The police had already come to collect evidence. They cordoned off the scene and left, but there was little useful information at the scene.

Summer walked up the stairs where Charlie fell, carefully recalling the scene at that time.

Now that the Emersons suspected her, it could only mean that this was a plot.

A plot to frame her.
