Predestined Marriage
Chapter 417 He Wanted to Kill Her

In an instant, the air pressure in the entire office dropped.

Leonardo looked up at Kate coldly. Then he shouted, "Get out of here!"

Hostility surfaced in his ink-like eyes.

Kate had never seen Leonardo like this before. She was so frightened that she took several steps back. Then she forgot to speak for a moment. Leonardo sneered. He stood up and walked over to Kate. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed her neck.

Leonardo did it so suddenly, and Tim couldn't help but cry out, "Mr. Emerson!"

Leonardo grabbed Kate's neck very hard. Soon, her entire face turned a little black and blue.

Kate grabbed Leonardo's arms, wanting to push them away. But she failed because Leonardo's hands seemed to be welded to her neck.

She struggled to squeeze out three words from her throat, "Get ... off... me...."

"Didn't you think I was a devil when I was a little kid? And you actually dared to lie to me again and again. Do you know the consequences of provoking the devil?"

Leonardo stared at Kate coldly. Not a trace of warmth could be seen in his eyes.

Never had Tim seen Leonardo so fierce before. If Leonardo didn't let go of Kate, she would die.

"Mr. Emerson, please let go of Miss Kate, you will strangle her to death!" Tim knew that Leonardo was strange, so he didn't dare to touch him then. He could only persuade him aside. Tim did not dare to call the security guards. Such an issue could not be known by others.

Seeing that Kate was about to faint, Tim was struck by a sudden thought. Then he took out his phone and called Summer.

Fortunately, Summer answered quickly.

"Hello?" Summer's voice sounded on the phone.

"Miss Summer, this is Tim. Please say something to Mr. Emerson."

"Why? What's wrong?"

"You can say anything to him."

After Tim finished speaking, he moved the phone to Leonardo's ear, "Mr. Emerson, this is from Miss Summer."

Leonardo ignored Tim and he wanted to kill Kate.

He wanted to strangle Kate to death.

Leonardo had never been a good person, and he also played dirty.

"Mr. Emerson, Summer is calling you now!" Tim hurriedly shouted, "She wants to speak to you. You should answer it."

Seemingly, Leonardo was awakened by the word "Summer". He finally regained his senses. Then he turned to look at Tim and said coldly, "Summer?" "Yes, Summer." Tim nodded.

Tim put her on speaker. So, Summer who was on the other end of the phone heard his conversation with Leonardo.

Even over the phone, Summer could feel something was wrong with Leonardo.

"Leonardo?" She said tentatively.

Hearing her voice, Leonardo was stunned for a moment before reaching for the phone. Naturally, he let go of Kate. Without any support, Kate fell to the ground.

Tim hurriedly helped Kate onto the sofa and lay down. He had no time to attend to Kate but paid all attention to Leonardo. Leonardo stood still, holding the phone and speaking, "Hi, Summer."

His tone sounded no different from usual. But Summer still felt something was wrong.

Summer thought of the conversation between Leonardo and Tim and asked, "Leonardo, what are you doing?"

What was he doing?

Leonardo looked down at his hand. Then he looked up at Kate who was lying on the sofa in semi-coma. He withdrew his looks and regained his sense.

He replied, "I was working on the some documents. Why did you call me?"

"I..." Actually, Tim called her. And she didn't call Leonardo.

However, she could only make up an excuse, "I'm asking you if you want to come back for lunch."

Leonardo remained silent for a while then he asked, "Do you want me to come back?"

Summer did not answer his question but asked, "Will you come back?"

"It depends."

"Well."

"I'm hanging up."

"OK."

However, Summer waited for a long time and did not hear Leonardo hang up.

Summer asked, "Didn't you say you'll hang up?"

Leonardo only replied coldly, "You hang up first."

Summer had no choice but to hang up first. She still felt that Leonardo was all strange.

Leonardo looked at the phone then returned it to Tim after confirming that Summer hung up.

Tim heaved a sigh of relief. At the crucial moment, Summer was the only one who could keep Leonardo awake.

Only then did Leonardo have the energy to look at Kate.

Kate was half lying on the sofa. She had regained some consciousness, but she was still uncomfortable.

When Kate saw Leonardo walking towards her, her eyes were full of fear. As she retreated, she muttered, "Stop... Don't come over..."

Leonardo walked to the sofa and looked down at her condescendingly, "Tell me what you are hiding from me."

"OK, I'll tell you everything." Kate was too scared to maintain her pride and arrogance, as the Miss of the Emersons?

"I lied to you. Amber is not Rosie's biological mother..."

"Carl is your good friend, Tim is your most trusted subordinate, and Summer is the one you love..."

"I sent you to America. And I asked a hypnosis expert to block your memories... This is my fault. I know I was wrong. Leonardo, please forgive me this time. I beg you, please..." Kate fell off the sofa and sat on the ground in a deressing state. She pulled Leonardo's trousers and pleaded with him.

She had been spoiled since she was a child, eating and dressing well. And everything she had was the best.

She was surrounded by bodyguards and servants. And she was glad that she hadn't been captured by kidnappers when she was a child.

She had a smooth life. Except for that Leonardo, her brother had always disobeyed her and was at odds with her.

At that time, she only cared about what she wanted and ignored Leonardo's nature.

Leonardo was a devil. He looked abnormal after he was sent back after he was kidnapped. Therefore, Kate didn't like him from a young age.

However, he was outstanding. And she had to rely on him to maintain the glory of the Emersons.

And Kate never thought that Leonardo would want to kill her.

She was almost ... dead at Leonardo's hands.

More than ten years had passed, and the demon in his heart was also grown up.

Kate knew that she could never control Leonardo.

When Leonardo heard what Kate said, he became furious again.

"Which hypnosis expert?" Tim hurriedly asked Kate before Leonardo got out of control again.00
