Predestined Marriage
Chapter 313 It's Challenging

Since Summer didn't say anything, Jessica remained silent.

Jessica pulled Summer to sit beside Carl.

Sitting on the other side of Carl was Leonardo. Beside Leonardo was a strange woman. Kate was beside the woman. The last one was Tim.

The strange woman had been talking to Kate, and occasionally to Leonardo.

With a cigarette in his mouth, Leonardo paid little attention to the woman.

Summer withdrew her gaze and felt Jessica poked her arm.

She turned to Jessica who pointed at her phone.

In the next moment, she received a message from Jessica.

"That woman is Amber Thompson, a friend of Kate's from overseas. Her parents are some government dignitaries. Her family background is fairly decent. Kate wants to make a match between Leonardo and Amber."

Amber Thompson.

Summer repeated the name in her heart.

Nice name.

The room was very quiet. Everyone held their glasses, drinking and chatting.

Summer lowered her eyes and did not look at Leonardo anymore.

Actually, this was not surprising.

Now that Leonardo was single to the public, the Emersons would definitely replace him another woman.

Moreover, with Leonardo's current condition and family background, the woman the Emersons arranged for him would only be better.

A woman with amazing family background, good appearance and impressive capacity.

Only such a woman could match a man of the Emersons.

She just didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Seeing that Summer remained silent, Jessica whispered to her, "Don't you have anything to say?"

"No." Summer took a deep breath and whispered back, "What can I say?"

Hearing this, Jessica frowned.

Indeed, judging from Leonardo and Summer's current relationship, what right did she have to speak out?

With this thought, Jessica began to feel depressed.

As his girlfriend, Summer had to stand another woman being introduced to Leonardo.

If it weren't for the Emersons' intervention, Summer wouldn't have to endure this.

In front of Jessica, Carl was completely a puppy wagging its tail to please her.

He took a piece of fruit and asked Jessica, "Jessica, would you like one?"

"No. I'm not in the mood right now. Don't talk to me. Men annoy me." Jessica said very loudly on purpose.

She came here to have dinner with the crew, but saw Carl, Leonardo, and the others.

Then she called Carl.

Carl was willing to bare his own heart as long as it pleased Jessica. Of course, he spilled everything to her.

He told her without reservation that it was Leonardo's sister Kate who introduced a woman to Leonardo.

When Jessica heard that Kate had introduced a woman to Leonardo, she followed Carl and found it was true. Then she called Summer immediately.

Her words did not attract Leonardo's attention.

He only glanced at Summer when she spoke.

Summer stood up and said, "Excuse me."

Then she got up and left.

As soon as she's gone, Kate stood up and intended to follow her.

Leonardo extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said casually, "What, you need some bonding time with your former sister-in-law?"

Kate's face darkened at his words.

"Leonardo, mind your words." Amber was her best friend. She introduced Amber to Leonardo because she really wanted to set them up. Hearing this, Leonardo curled his lips and looked at Amber. "That's my ex-wife, isn't she beautiful?"

All night long, Leonardo remained expressionless. This sudden smile made Amber stunned for a moment, she did catch him, "Pardon?" Leonardo raised his eyebrows mockingly without saying a word.

Before Amber spoke again, Kate said with a dark face, "Leonardo, mind your words."

"I'm speaking properly. I think my ex-wife is very beautiful."

Leonardo leaned against the sofa and turned to Carl, "Do you think Summer is beautiful?"

Carl swallowed, not quite sure how to answer.

Seeing that Leonardo had gone too far, Kate reproached in a low roar, "Enough!"

Amber quickly pulled Kate's arm and said, "Kate, cool down. It's fine."

Kate snorted and sat down.

Leonardo stood up and patted off the dust that did not exist, especially the arm that Amber had touched. His movements almost tore up Amber's composure, her expression stiffened to the brink of breakdown. Leonardo didn't even look at her and said indifferently, "It's too late. I have work tomorrow. Excuse me."

Kate said, "It's so late. It's unsafe for a woman like Amber to return home alone. You drive her home."

"Tim, send Miss Amber home." After speaking, Leonardo went straight out ignoring everyone.

Kate finally broke out and shout his name angrily, "Leonardo!"

Leonardo acted as if he didn't hear her and directly went out.

"I'm fed up with him!" Kate's chest heaved heavily because of extreme angry, indicating her terrible mood.

However, Amber, who was sitting beside her, looked rather calm.

Amber poured a glass of water for Kate, her expression was full of confidence, "Your younger brother is as charming as you, only with a worse temper. I like it. It's challenging." Her words comforted Kate whose expression became a little better, "This is him. A little more time will make you two get along well."

Amber smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Jessica couldn't help rolling her eyes at the conversation between them.

Jessica raised his chin slightly and said lazily, "To get along needs opportunities. I don't think Mr. Emerson is interested in Miss Amber at all."

Amber turned to glance at her, but did not say anything.

Kate whispered something in Amber's ear, probably telling her who Jessica was.

Hearing Kate, Amber only smiled at Jessica, very disdainfully.

Jessica was about to retort when Carl stood up and looked at Kate coldly. "Miss Kate, please pay the bill when you leave. Although Leonardo and I are good friends, you and I are not."

Born extremely rich, Kate was flattered wherever she went. She didn't expect Carl to embarrass her like this. Her expression changed again and again, finally she clenched her teeth and said, "I know."

Carl nodded in satisfaction. He took Jessica's hand and went out.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
