Predestined Marriage
Chapter 480 Stand Close

Not to mention Stanley, even the subordinates who had come with Stanley to save people were surprised.

Who was Leonardo?

Leonardo was born with a silver spoon and grew up in a wealthy family.

He even adapted to the lifestyle of the countryside and had meals in such a place.

Summer had gotten used to it, so she wasn't surprised at all.

Leonardo picked up pickles and a piece of shallot with chopsticks. He frowned and was about to throw the piece of shallots away. Seeing that, Summer pushed her bowl towards him. "Don't throw it. Give it to me."

Leonardo frowned and put the piece of shallot into her bowl.

She didn't know why he had this habit. He didn't eat onions, shallots or anything related to that.

Stanley saw that, and his eyes were filled with disappointment.

He felt like that he was the fifth wheel.

'Leonardo must think I'm stupid.'

Stanley smiled self-mockingly, stood up and walked out with his subordinates.

Summer heard the footsteps and looked up. She looked at Stanley and the others with a puzzled expression and muttered, "Why do they walk out?"

Leonardo put a piece of shallots into her bowl and said, "Have your breakfast."

Summer wanted to say something, but she did not say anything in the end.

She ate less than Leonardo and Arthur. Soon, she was full.

She took the bowl into the kitchen and went out to look for Stanley.

Leonardo and Arthur were still sitting beside the dining table. From the hall, they saw Summer and Stanley standing together and having a talk.

'Do they stand close to keep warm?'

'It she so happy to chat with Stanley?'

Every time Leonardo looked at them, he became angrier.

Arthur glanced at Leonardo. Then Arthur looked at Summer and Stanley. Arthur asked curiously, "Is that young man here to compete with you for your wife?" Leonardo said expressionlessly, "He is not worthy of competing with me."

"Since you know that, why are you so angry?" Arthur shook his head, "Don't be too anxious. Summer only loves you. Don't be too suspicious...."

Leonardo kept silent for a while and said coldly, "She is a loose woman."

She wants to remarry me, but she is in the entertainment news involved with other men. Stanley also cares about her.

Leonardo sneered!

He wasn't sure if Summer only loved him.

Arthur was stuck for words.

Outside the door.

Summer stood beside Stanley and pondered for a moment before saying, "Although I don't know why you intentionally provoke Leonardo, I am very grateful that you come to help me." "We have a life-and-death experience together. Never mind," Stanley laughed and looked down at the ground.

Summer opened her mouth but kept silent.

It was mainly because what she wanted to say was not proper here.

After a while, she said, "After we return to Hoover City, I'll treat you to a meal."

Stanley agreed cheerily, "OK."

Summer also smiled and said, "It's a deal."

"It's sunny," Arthur said.

Summer raised her head and saw the sun in the sky.

It had rained for so many days. This was the first time for them to see the sun.

The sound of footsteps came from behind the house.

Summer turned her head and saw Tim walking over with some people.

When Tim saw so many people, a trace of surprise flashed through his eyes. After looking around, he looked at Summer.

He walked to Summer and said respectfully, "Mrs. Emerson."

"Hi, Tim."

Summer smiled. As expected, her feeling was correct.

Tim looked at Summer and confirmed that she was fine. He let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is Mr. Emerson?"

Summer tilted her head to look at the hall and guesses, "He may be washing the dishes inside."

Tim looked at the shabby two-story tile-roofed house and felt surprised.

"This way," Summer said and went straight to the kitchen.

Tim had no choice but to follow behind her.

Leonardo was indeed washing the dishes in the kitchen.

He stood in front of the stove and slowly washed the dishes with his sleeves rolled up. He was as serious as dealing with important documents.

He wore a creased shirt and his hair was a little messy. He was different from usual. He was always particular about the food and clothing.

Tim was surprised and said hesitantly, "Mr. Emerson!"

"Wait a moment. I need to wash the dishes again." Leonardo wasn't surprised for Tim's arrival at all and didn't even look at Tim. Leonardo poured out the dirty water from the pot, added the clean water, and washed the dishes again.

Then Leonardo turned to look at Tim.

Seeing Leonardo's face, Tim was sure that this was Mr. Emerson.

Tim nodded slightly, "Mr. Emerson, the helicopter is parked on the lawn behind us. We can leave at any time."

Leonardo wiped his hands with a towel and asked Tim, "How is the Emerson Group?"

"Everything goes smoothly. They all think you are just on a business trip abroad. There is nothing special, but some documents are piled up," Tim reported seriously.

"OK," Leonardo replied indifferently, put the towel back on the stove casually and looked out of the door.

Outside the door, Arthur was squatting on a stone with a pipe. Stanley took out a lighter to help Arthur light it. Arthur only glanced at him and took out a matchbox to light the pipe. Stanley said something to Arthur. Arthur raised his eyebrows and replied.

Leonardo looked away and asked Tim, "Do you have any money?"

"Yes." After understanding what Leonardo meant, Tim took out a brown paper bag.

Of course, Tim had cash with him when he went to such a place. Apart from the cash in the paper bag, he also brought a lot.

Leonardo held the brown paper bag and walked towards Arthur.

"Leonardo!" Summer knew what Leonardo was going to do, so she pulled him back and said, "Arthur will be angry."

Arthur was stubborn. Although he was poor, Summer knew that what he lacked was not money, but companionship.

She could feel that Arthur had been very happy in the past few days because she and Leonardo stayed here. "He won't."

Leonardo glanced at Summer and went out.

When Arthur saw Leonardo walking over, he was calm.

Leonardo put the bag into Arthur's hand and said something. Arthur kept silent for a while, nodded and accepted it.

Summer was surprised and asked Tim who was also surprised, "Tim, based on your understanding of Leonardo, what do you think he has said to Arthur?"

"If we were in Mr. Emerson's villa in Hoover City, I could guess what Mr. Emerson had said...."

After a while, Tim looked up at a spider web on the roof. He said slowly, "Mr. Emerson has lived in this kind of place for a few days. I have no idea what he said."☐☐☐☐☐☐
