Predestined Marriage
Chapter 445 You Don't Want Me to Stay

She remembered the plot of 'Lost City', but some details that had gone out of her mind.

Now that she was going to write the second book, she had to go over the contents of the first one. Summer had been watching 'Lost City' on her tablet for the entire afternoon.

As she cooked, she put her tablet on the glass countertop. While cutting vegetables, she watched it.

Suddenly, she heard a loud bang outside the door.

Summer was stunned. After clicking on the pause button, she walked towards the door.

Before Summer went to the door, it was opened from outside.

An unfamiliar man dressed in overalls stood at the door.

Summer's face darkened as she asked, "Who are you?"

The man was a little scared of Summer, and his voice carried fear. "I'm a locksmith...."

Summer's face turned even colder. "I didn't call you to unlock the door."

A familiar man's voice sounded. "I asked him to do it."

The man who unlocked the door retreated, and Leonardo, who was handsome, appeared in Summer's line of sight.

"Leonardo?" Summer sneered with anger, "Are you too idle so you ask him to unlock my door? Don't know how to knock? Or at least, you can call me!" Summer scratched her hair irritably.

Leonardo looked at her coldly, his tone sounding somewhat gloomy. "I have knocked and called you."

Hearing this, Summer hurriedly went to fetch her phone.

She found her cell phone on the coffee table in the living room. There were several missed calls from Leonardo.

Leonardo did call her.

Summer had been watching 'Lost City', so she didn't hear her phone ring.

She turned around and found that Leonardo had already followed behind her into the room. He was sitting on the sofa now.

He loosened his tie and leaned against the sofa, looking at Summer with a calm expression.

Summer put down her phone and went to get him a glass of water.

Leonardo took a sip of water and asked with a frown, "What are you doing?"

Summer was a little embarrassed, but she still replied truthfully, "I'm watching TV."

Leonardo sneered and didn't say anything.

Summer glanced in the direction of the door again. After confirming that Leonardo was the only one who came, she asked, "Where is Rosie? Why didn't she come?" Speaking of Rosie, Leonardo put on a serious expression. "She has a cold. I just came back from the company, and I will pick you up to see her."

Summer moved her lips and bit back.

Children were weak, so it was normal for them to catch a cold.

Moreover, it wasn't necessarily Leonardo's fault.

Leonardo himself was a patient now, wasn't he?

"Wait a moment. I need to get dressed." After Summer finished speaking, she went back to her room.

Not long after, Summer came out.

It was autumn and the temperature was agreeable, neither too cold nor too hot. Wearing a white sweater and a skirt, Summer looked simple and sweet.

Summer picked up her phone and urged Leonardo. "Let's go."

Leonardo stood up. With his hands in the pockets of his trousers, he strode out.

They entered the elevator at the same time.

Leonardo turned to look at Summer, replaceing her slightly pursing her lips. She looked very worried.

"I've called the doctor. There's nothing serious. Children are prone to catch a cold." It sounded like Leonardo was comforting Summer.

However, it did not work on Summer. She nodded perfunctorily.

With a gloomy look, Leonardo didn't say anything.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Leonardo's villa.

As soon as Summer got out of the car, she quickly walked inside.

She lived here before, so she was very familiar with the villa. When she entered the hall, she directly ran upstairs to Rosie's room.

Lying on the bed weakly, Rosie was put on a drip, which was hung before the bed.

Summer walked over and softly called, "Rosie?"

Rosie's eyes were black and bright, and her eyelashes were long. However, they did not curl up. When she fell asleep and closed her eyes, her eyelashes would cover the puffiness beneath her eyes. Half of her face was covered with a quilt, and her nose moved gently as she breathed.

Rosie looked especially pitiful.

Rosie slept lightly. Summer called her gently, and Rosie opened her eyes.

She rolled her eyes blankly at first. When she saw Summer, she immediately narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Mom."

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to hug Summer.

Summer knew what she was going to do. Just as Rosie reached out, Summer placed a restraining hand on Rosie's arm. "Don't move. There's still a needle in your hand."

Hearing this, Rosie turned around and looked at the back of her hand. She pursed her lips and her eyes were filled with tears, but she didn't cry.

Rosie's behavior hurt Summer's heart.

Summer touched her head and said, "Don't worry. You will be fine soon."

Rosie nodded. "Yes."

Rosie held Summer's warm hand tightly with her spare hand. "Mom, don't go."

"I won't. I'll stay here with you." Summer smiled and nodded.

Rosie failed to see Summer for a whole day. She whispered something to Summer and quickly fell asleep.

Summer tucked Rosie in. She turned around, as if she sensed something, and then she saw Leonardo standing behind her somehow.

Summer was shocked by Leonardo and said angrily, "When did you come?"

Leonardo did not answer her question. His gaze fell on Rosie's face, "She's asleep."

"Yes." Summer stood up and walked out while whispering to him, "How did she catch a cold?"

Leonardo returned indifferently, "Last night, she ran out of the room in the middle of the night to look for you."

Leonardo always slept lightly. In the middle of the night, he heard some noise outside. When he came out, he saw Rosie standing barefoot at his door. She was crying for her mother.

It was late at night. How could Leonardo take Rosie to Summer?

In the end, Leonardo had no choice but to carry her to her room.

Nevertheless, she caught a cold.

When Summer called in the morning, Rosie was still asleep. At that time, Leonardo did not know Rosie was suffering from a cold.

Summer listened to him and walked outside. After closing the door, she said to Leonardo, "When Rosie wakes up, I will bring her back." Hearing this, Leonardo put on a cold look. "What do you mean?"

"Rosie needs me to take care of her now, so I have to take her back." After she finished, she added with a smile, "Or do you want me to stay?" Without waiting for Leonardo to speak, Summer continued negatively, "You won't let me stay."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
