Predestined Marriage
Chapter 436 Go Back on His Words

Leonardo sounded a bit complacent as Carl listened carefully.

Carl felt that his impression of Leonardo before was too superficial. He didn't expect that Leonardo, a distant man, would like to show off.

As his friend, Carl felt that he should remind Leonardo.

"Leonardo, do you know a popular phrase on the Internet?"

"No." Obviously, Leonardo was not interested in what Carl was going to say.

In spite of his indifference, Carl continued, "It goes like this-a man will pay for ignoring his wife though he feels good now."

Leonardo asked coldly, "Does it have anything to do with me?"

Carl smelt danger and impatience. Although Carl was slow, he knew how to respond.

"No. It has nothing to do with you..." But it soon would.

Leonardo snorted. Carl did not forget his task and continued, "I'll send you Summer's address. Come over tonight."

Leonardo resolutely refused, "No!"

Carl was speechless.

Although Leonardo said that he wouldn't go there, Carl still sent him Summer's address after hanging up the phone. Leonardo should not blame Carl for not helping after he regained his memory. Carl had done everything he could do.

Carl was amused as he imagined about Leonardo being regretful when he recovered.

He couldn't wait to see it.

Summer called Leonardo twice, but Leonardo did not answer.

At first, she thought Leonardo was in a meeting.

However, considering Leonardo's recent attitude, she felt that he might not want to answer her phone.

So she asked Carl to call Leonardo.

She kept waiting, but Carl hadn't called her back. So she guessed that Leonardo might have answered Carl's phone and was talking to him. Although she had expected it, she was still a little upset.

It was true that Leonardo didn't want to answer her phone...

Summer leaned back and fell on the sofa.

She was a little tired these days. She also wanted to call Leonardo.

However, what he said the day before was a blow to her. He said it was just her delusion.

"Mom."

Rosie ran out of the room with a pink rabbit doll in her arms. She ran to the sofa and leaned on it. She looked at Summer eagerly, "Look at this rabbit." Summer asked her, "Do you like it?"

She bought it when she went shopping yesterday.

Rosie nodded, "Yes."

Summer reached out and stroked her hair.

At this moment, Carl called.

Summer immediately sat up from the sofa and asked anxiously, "How is it?"

"Leonardo answered the phone, but he...."

Summer understood as she heard Carl hesitate.

"He's not coming, is he?"

"Right."

"I see. Thank you. Come to have dinner tonight. Jessica will be here too."

"Alright. I'll be there on time."

As long as there was Jessica, not to mention dinner, he would even walk into a trap.

Summer talked with him for a while before hanging up the phone.

Rosie seemed to notice that Summer was in low spirits. She said softly, "Mom..."

Summer reached out and pinched Rosie's face gently, "We're going shopping. We'll buy some meat and vegetables to cook. Auntie Jessica and others will come to dinner." Rosie's eyes lit up, "I want meat and lollipops."

Summer shook her head, "You can't eat candy until tomorrow."

Rosie was too fond of candy. Summer made a rule that she could only have it once every two days.

Rosie pouted disappointedly, "I want it now."

Summer picked her up and said, "Today we'll have meat."

"Alright." Though reluctant, Rosie was content to have meat for dinner.

Summer bought a lot of food in the supermarket with Rosie.

She had moved to a new place and invited friends to dinner. It symbolized a new start.

She had planned the dinner for herself, Leonardo, Jessica and Carl.

Now that Leonardo wasn't coming, there would just be three of them.

Although there were only three people, Summer still made a lot of dishes.

She also prepared some wines.

Jessica and Carl came one after another.

Due to the shopping with Summer in the afternoon, Rosie did not take a nap.

Rosie began to doze off when it was time for dinner.

Summer had no choice but to quickly feed her and take Rosie to sleep.

Rosie was not picky about beds and fell asleep as soon as she lay on it.

After she was sound in sleep, Summer put the pink rabbit doll into her arms and left the bedroom.

Jessica whispered to her, "Is she sleeping?"

"Yes." Summer nodded and said, "The house is soundproof. You can speak louder."

Summer had gone to her room today after turning on the TV in the living room. And she didn't hear any sound.

Jessica picked up the glass and poured some wine, "Have some wine?"

Summer made a gesture with her fingers, "Just a little."

However, Jessica filled half of the glass.

When she and Jessica were about to drink after clinking glasses, the doorbell rang.

Summer glanced at the door as she drank the wine.

Jessica kicked Carl under the table. Carl quickly stood up and said, "Let me check it."

Carl opened the door and saw Leonardo standing outside, expressionless.

Carl paused and said, "It's Leonardo."

"What are you doing here?" Leonardo frowned.

He looked at Carl as if looking at an adulterer, which made Carl nervous.

"Come on! I'm your friend, but I am also a friend of Summer."

Leonardo glanced at him and walked in.

Carl closed the door and followed behind him, muttering to himself, "Why is this man still stingy after losing his memory..."

Summer had taken half a glass of wine, and looked at the door to see who it was.

When Summer saw Leonardo, she was so shocked that she opened her mouth slightly. She asked as he approached, "Leonardo? Why are you here?"

He said he wouldn't come, didn't he?

It was not his style to go back on his word.

Leonardo looked at her coldly and said in a threatening tone, "Am I not welcome here?"

"Yes." Summer hurriedly stood up and pulled him to sit down on the chair beside her.

As Summer pulled his hand, Leonardo slightly held hers. He felt that her hand was as soft as a cloud.

Although Summer let go of his hand as soon as he sat down, Leonardo still felt a tingle of excitement from his hand.

It seemed that a little electric current had just passed through.

Summer gave a bowl and chopsticks to Leonardo and asked in a low voice, "Have you had dinner?"

Leonardo noticed the concern in her eyes, but what he said was, "I'm here to see Rosie."‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒☐☐☐☐
