Predestined Marriage
Chapter 303 A More Suitable Person

The conversation between the two women naturally did not escape Tim's ears.

Tim pretended to cough, interrupting their conversation.

When the woman thought that he worked for Leonardo, she realized that what she had just said was somewhat inappropriate.

After all, she wanted Tim to say a good word for her in front of Leonardo.

Just as she was about to say something to Tim, she heard him saying in a polite manner, "Sorry, excuse me."

She had no choice but to move aside.

Tim walked straight to Summer and said, "Ms. Summer."

Since he was used to calling her "Mrs. Emerson", he almost couldn't correct himself just now.

After a brief shock, Summer obediently called, "Mr. Knight."

Tim quietly looked around and whispered to Summer while others were not paying attention, "Mrs. Emerson, have you seen Mr. Emerson?"

"Yes." After Summer finished speaking, she saw Leonardo walking over from behind. She pointed behind Tim with her chin and said, "He's coming."

When Tim saw Leonardo, he let out a sigh of relief.

As soon as Leonardo arrived, he went to the restroom. Heaven knows how annoying it was for him to be surrounded by the group of women, who kept asking questions.

"Mr. Emerson," Tim hurriedly walked towards Leonardo.

"Hi." Leonardo replied and looked at Summer in a seemingly inadvertent manner.

Summer turned around and walked towards the other end.

Except Leonardo, Tim and Jerome, Summer didn't know anyone else at the banquet.

Naturally, no one took the initiative to talk to Summer, so she walked to an inconspicuous corner and sat down.

She chose a good seat. Sitting in a high chair, she was almost able to see the entire banquet hall. Leonardo was tall and had a cold temperament, particularly conspicuous amongst the crowd.

A few minutes after Summer sat down, she saw women constantly chatting up with Leonardo.

Even though Leonardo treated them coldly, there were still constantly coming to attract his attention.

In the past, Leonardo did not attend events or banquets. Even if these women had the intention, there was no opportunity for them to chat with him. Now that Leonardo often appeared in public as a single man these women definitely would not let this opportunity slip by.

Of course, Summer understood it.

However, those women looked at Leonardo as if they couldn't wait to swallow him. Seeing that, Summer was panicked.

"This is just the beginning. You can't stand it now?"

Jerome's voice sounded beside her ears.

Summer turned around and saw Jerome sit down beside her with a glass of champagne. He was looking at her with a smile on his face.

Summer curled her lips and said without a smile, "You are too much in charge."

"Summer, I'm doing this for your own good." Jerome's expression became serious. "Leonardo is sinister and cunning. It is not easy to get along with the Emersons. You really aren't their match."

"Then tell me, how difficult it is to get along with them?" Summer was obviously trying to induce Jerome to say something.

Jerome shook his head, "I mean seriously. Even if you are not with Leonardo, you may not be with me. I believe that you can choose a more suitable person."

Summer's expression was slightly cold, "I know if it's suitable or not."

After a moment of silence, Jerome lowered his voice and said, "A person who can't even protect a child is not suitable for you. Don't you think so?"

Hearing this, Summer tightened her grip on the champagne.

Apart from Leonardo and her, and others they trusted, there shouldn't be anyone else who know about the child.

She put down the glass of champagne in her hand and looked at Jerome with a serious expression, "How did you know?"

"It seemed that my guess is correct." Jerome smiled and sighed.

Summer did not say anything and waited for him to speak.

Jerome glanced in Leonardo's direction and said, "I know you. You will definitely take care of the child when it is born. But you are living alone without your child by your side. If the child is with Leonardo, for the sake of the child, you will not be separated from him."

At this point, Jerome paused slightly and observed Summer's expression before continuing, "The child is not by your side, nor by Leonardo's side. What does this mean?"

Summer's face was cold. She looked down slightly and restrained the emotions in her eyes. "So, where do you think our child is?"

The word "our child" seemed to have provoked Jerome.

Jerome's expression also turned cool, "You and Leonardo won't be happy together. He looks glorious, but he is also restricted by the Emersons."

"Enough." Summer interrupted him, "What will happen to me and Leonardo is my business."

Jerome no longer persuaded Summer.

They sat side by side, and neither of them spoke again.

"The woman in the black dress..."

"It's her? Just so so..."

"No, she was lucky enough to marry into the Emersons."

"After all, a wild girl cannot match Mr. Emerson, so they finally divorced."

"She knew that Mr. Emerson would come to the banquet today, so she came here deliberately, right?"

"That's definitely true. Which woman doesn't like a man like Leonardo? She probably wants to win back Leonardo's heart."

"It's simply a dream. She had no opportunity."

Women's ability to spread information could not be underestimated. After someone recognized Summer, the news that Mr. Emerson's ex-wife had also come to the banquet spread quickly. Many women were talking about Summer.

Some women who kept a low profile took a look at Summer from afar.

Other shameless people, just like the two women just now, ran over to Summer and pointed at her.

Usually, Summer would just listen and didn't care too much.

However, she just heard Jerome's words and was feeling unhappy.

Summer got down from the high chair, crossing her arms, and stood before the two women. "Yes, I am still dreaming. But you don't even have a chance."

One of them stood up and argued with her, "What did you say?"

"Don't you understand?" Summer sneered and slightly raised her chin to look at her, "If you don't understand, look it up in the dictionary."

"You..." The woman pointed at Summer and said, "You still think you are Mrs. Emerson? Nobody will accept your arrogance."

"No, I'm not Mrs. Emerson, but I was." Summer felt a little bored when she saw that woman was too angry to speak.

It was unnecessary for her to argue with some stupid people.

Feeling bored, she turned around to take her bag and prepared to leave. After walking for a few steps, she felt that someone was following her. Looking back, she discovered Jerome who was following her.¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶¶
