Predestined Marriage -
Chapter 258: Why Did Summer Faint?
Though Leonardo refused her to visit Mr. Charlie, she decided to go on her own.
However, Leonardo had told her to stay at home, so he must have secretly instructed his bodyguards not to let her out.
She knew it, but she still wanted to give it a try.
She was stopped at the door.
"Mrs. Emerson, where are you going?"
Summer raised her eyebrows and then squinted. She gazed at the bodyguard with arrogance, "You want to control me?"
The bodyguard was calm, "Mr. Emerson has instructed us. Mrs. Emerson, you'd better stay at home. If you want to do something, just leave it to us."
"What if I have to go out?"
The bodyguard nodded slightly, "Sorry."
The bodyguard was so stubborn. It seemed that Leonardo had seriously emphasized that she was not allowed to go out.
Summer did not bother with it and turned around to leave.
She collapsed into the sofa, with her mind blank.
"Summer! I'm coming!"
Jessica's voice suddenly sounded.
Summer looked over and saw her walking from the door.
Summer squinted and suddenly remembered that the Jarretts were stopped by bodyguards yesterday.
"They didn't stop you?" Summer asked as she patted the seat beside her and signaled for Jessica to sit.
Jessica sat down beside her and said, "No. And they even greeted me. They directly let me in."
Summer's brain went into overdrive.
The bodyguards stoutly stopped the Jarretts and just let Jessica in.
Obviously, Leonardo had instructed them to do so.
Seeing Summer pondering, Jessica comforted her, "Don't think too much. Anyway, you should give birth to the baby first. Mr. Emerson will deal with all the troubles." "He doesn't let me go out again." Summer was upset.
Jessica thought for a while and said, "Perhaps it's for your good. The matter of Mr. Charlie has caused a lot of trouble. It might be better if you don't go out."
"But I don't want to wait around for that to happen. I don't know who tried to frame me. I don't know what Leonardo is thinking. It began with me, but now I know the least about it." Summer added, "I want to go out."
Jessica somewhat agreed her.
She asked Summer, "Do you really want to go out?"
"You got a plan?" Summer turned to her.
Jessica blinked and then shouted towards the door, "Summer, what happened to you? Why did you faint?"
With that, she stretched out and pulled her, "Faint!"
Summer immediately closed her eyes and pretended to be in a coma.
Jessica's words attracted the bodyguards and servants.
"What's wrong with Mrs. Emerson?"
Jessica shook her head with a panicky look, "I don't know! She just fainted. Let's send her to the hospital first. She's still pregnant...."
Jessica was a good actress. The bodyguard did not doubt her and directly sent Summer to the hospital.
That hospital was part of the Emerson Group, and it was also the hospital where Mr. Charlie stayed.
Jessica naturally went with them.
She sat in the backseat with Summer so that she could take care of Summer.
When they arrived at the hospital, Leonardo carried Summer out with a sullen face as soon as the car door opened.
Jessica was dumbfounded to see Leonardo.
She just wanted to help Summer trick those bodyguards and go out, but she didn't expect Leonardo was waiting at the hospital.
She secretly prayed for Summer. She was afraid she couldn't help her anymore.
Jessica took her bag and got off. She quickly followed him, "Mr. Emerson."
But Leonardo just asked darkly, "Why did she faint?"
Jessica was somewhat afraid of Leonardo. Guilty as she was, she had no choice but to say, "She just fainted all of a sudden. We were chatting, but she...."
Her voice gradually weakened.
Leonardo walked so fast with his long leg that Jessica could only trot to catch up with him.
She secretly glanced at Summer who was held by him.
Summer opened her eyes on the quiet and blinked at her, signaling for her to leave.
Summer had been closing her eyes along the way. When the car arrived, she quietly opened her eyes and knew that it was the hospital where Mr. Charlie lived. She thought it awful. When Leonardo came to carry her, she recognized him in a second.
However, she would definitely be seen through during the test.
She would be fine, but Jessica, who offered the idea, might get into trouble.
Jessica got it and suddenly patted her head. She said in panic, "Oh no! I remember that I still have an important matter to deal with. Mr. Emerson, I have to leave first..."
Leonardo didn't give her a glance and just hurried to the emergency room with Summer in his arms.
Jessica quickly ran away.
When they were about to arrive at the emergency room, Summer called out his name, "Leonardo."
Leonardo suddenly stopped and looked down at Summer. He expressionlessly said, "Didn't you faint?" Summer replied, "I'm awake now."
Leonardo sneered.
He put Summer down.
Summer knew that her little trick had been seen through.
Fortunately, Leonardo didn't throw her off angrily. Instead, he carefully placed her on the ground.
Summer stood still and directly said, "I want to see the grandfather."
Leonardo smiled, but his eyes were still cold, "Summer, you think you're smart, right?"
"Not as smart as you." Summer shook her head.
Leonardo seemed to be provoked by her reply. He raised his voice, "Then go back!"
"Go back for what? Go back and continue to guess what you are thinking about?" Summer was resolute.
Both of them fell silent.
Leonardo had been staying at the hospital ever since Mr. Charlie was injured.
During the past few days, Leonardo couldn't sleep and eat.
He looked a little haggard, but his eyes were still sharp, without a trace of exhaustion.
Leonardo was such a man. It seemed that nothing could defeat him. He was so powerful that he was almost omnipotent.
Every time when Summer thought she knew him well, he would do something that she couldn't understand. Leonardo was always domineering. No one could know what he was thinking if he didn't want others to know. They faced each other for almost one minute. Finally, Leonardo seemed to have compromised, "Follow me."☐☐☐
