Predestined Marriage -
Chapter 302 You're Smart
Sitting on the toilet in the cubicle, Summer had a bad feeling when she heard someone knocking on the door of the cubicle one by one.
Could it be Jerome?
But after thinking about Jerome's personality, she felt that it couldn't be him.
Although Jerome had changed a lot, he was still a proud man. This had never changed.
Therefore, it definitely wouldn't be Jerome.
But who was it?
By this time, the person had been outside her cubicle, knocking on the door.
The sound came two or three times in a row. She could feel the steady rhythm which gave away the stable personality of the person who knocked.
Summer's heart skipped a beat.
It might be Leonardo....
A person's sixth sense was such a strange thing.
There was still a door between them. They did not speak, nor could they see each other. Summer was sure that the person outside was Leonardo.
Summer pinched her nose and lowered her voice. "Who is it? I'm not finished yet."
The next moment, Leonardo's slightly gloomy voice sounded from outside. "Do you want me to help you?"
It was really Leonardo!
Summer patted her forehead.
How did Leonardo replace this place?
He couldn't have installed a GPS positioning system on her.
Summer decided to defend herself. "This is a women's toilet. What are you doing here? If you don't go out, I'll call the police. I...."
Leonardo interrupted her. "Come out by yourself, or I'll kick the door, you choose."
His tone was extremely cold. Summer almost shivered.
Could she choose neither?
However, her body made the choice faster than her brain.
The door opened.
Leonardo's gloomy face appeared in front of Summer.
He stared at Summer, raised his eyebrows slightly, perfectly composed.
Summer took a swallow and tried her best to sound as natural as possible. "Why are you here.... It is such a coincidence...."
"Summer." Leonardo called out her name in a calm voice.
Summer's scalp tightened as she straightened her back and stood upright, looking like she was holding her nerves.
Leonardo laughed angrily, "Now you know you're guilty?"
Summer looked down and whispered, "I've always been guilty."
"Then why are you accompanying that man to the banquet?" Right now, Leonardo didn't even want to mention Jerome's name in front of Summer.
Summer had never attended a dinner party with him, yet Jerome actually asked her first.
"I have my reason." Summer tried to defend herself.
"Reason? You're very grateful to him for helping you escape out of the country?" Leonardo sneered. "I'm already magnanimous, not bankrupting the Patel Group. Does he still want you to return the favor?" Summer pursed her lips and said, "Don't bankrupt their companies for such trivial...."
"You can accompany other men to the banquet. Why can't I bankrupt the Patel Group?" Leonardo raised his eyebrows and looked at her, his tone unfriendly.
It was obvious that he was angry and jealous.
Leonardo seldom showed his jealousy. Summer felt that it was a bit strange and couldn't help laughing.
Leonardo noticed her expression and rubbed her head with no expression.
"My hair is messed up." Summer pushed his hand away in dissatisfaction.
Just now, Leonardo was too angry to notice that Summer had specially done her hair today.
Seeing Leonardo squinting his eyes again, Summer hurriedly pulled him out and said, "Let's go out first. It's too strange to stay here all the time."
Leonardo did not say anything and allowed her to pull him out.
As soon as they were out, Summer saw that Jerome was still there.
Seeing her, Jerome called her. "Summer."
Summer smiled awkwardly.
Leonardo ignored Jerome and looked at Summer. "I'll have someone send you home."
Summer remembered the conversation she heard among the women when she first entered the banquet hall. She did not immediately reply to Leonardo.
Leonardo didn't allow her to accompany Jerome to the banquet, but instead, he came out and attracted women like a womanizer.
Besides, she hadn't seen Leonardo recently. It was not easy for her to see him openly. How could she leave like this?
Seeing that Summer did not reply, Leonardo knew that she did not want to go back.
Leonardo lowered his head, touched her face, and whispered. "Be good."
Summer was a little irritated. "I'm already here. It would be a waste of time to go back like this. Let's me stay to see what it is like here."
Leonardo frowned and remained silent.
Summer glanced at him, turned around, staggered away from him, and walked towards the banquet hall.
Just now, Jerome saw clearly how Leonardo and Summer had interacted, Now, he was peering at Leonardo with a poker face.
Previously, there was news from the media that Leonardo and Summer were divorced.
He had seen Leonardo's furious expression after Summer escaped, so he did not believe it.
From what he saw now, his guess was correct.
When Jerome was peering Leonardo, Leonardo also turned to look at him.
Leonardo stared at him for a few seconds and said, "I think you're smart."
Jerome's eyes flickered, "I don't know."
"Mr. Jerome should know very well what to say, what not to say, what to do, and what not to do."
As Leonardo spoke, his gaze did not leave Jerome, so he naturally did not miss Jerome's slightly cold expression.
He sneered before turning around and left.
A man like Jerome wanted to steal his woman?
When Summer returned to the banquet hall, she saw Tim.
Tim had come with Leonardo. Since Leonardo was not here, many people naturally went to butter up Tim.
Tim was Leonardo's right hand.
A woman happened to be asking Tim, "Has Mr. Emerson got a new girlfriend recently?"
This woman asked straightforwardly. Other people wanted to know the answer too.
Tim was no ordinary subordinate, but a shrewd guy who had been tempered by Leonardo. "This is Mr. Emerson's personal matter. I'm not very clear about it."
After Tim finished speaking, he casually looked up and saw Summer.
Summer had just taken a glass of champagne from the waiter. When she saw Tim, she nodded at him.
Tim was surprised, not expecting to see Summer here.
No wonder Mr. Emerson didn't come back after going to the restroom for so long. It was because Mrs. Emerson was also here.
A woman noticed Tim's gaze, so she saw Summer too.
The woman asked the person beside her, "Who is that woman?"
She felt that Summer looked a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
"Mr. Emerson's ex-wife, Summer. But I heard she used to be very ugly. I guess she had plastic surgery," said the woman nearby.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
