Predestined Marriage
Chapter 571 Leonardo's Mother

Summer drove away from Leonardo's villa overnight and went downtown.

As soon as Leonardo woke up, he would discover that she had gone and then bring people to look for her. Meanwhile, those who had taken Rosie away were definitely keeping an eye out for her at all times. Therefore, all she had to do now was to wait for them to come looking for her. However, she wasn't sure who would replace her first, Leonardo's men or the people who had taken Rosie away. She hoped that it could be the latter.

Summer arrived at the center of the city before sunrise. She took a rest in a hotel for two hours and went to the busiest high street for coffee after dawn.

All she had to do was to keep a high profile.

Today was a working day, so even in the busiest street, there were fewer people than usual.

Summer sat in a seat next to the window and ordered a cup of coffee. Then, she began to watch the people around her.

Most of them were office workers who took the time to have a cup of coffee and eat fast food, with no one looking suspicious.

After several cups of coffee, Summer looked out of the window, feeling bored. At this moment, someone walked over and sat down opposite her. Summer turned her head and saw a familiar face. She was stunned for a moment and asked, "Stanley?"

The man sitting opposite her only said, "Long time no see, Summer."

Summer looked at him carefully and then asked again, "Connel, is that you?"

"You finally recognized me." Connel was in black as usual. When he smiled, he looked almost the same as Stanley, who Summer had not seen for a long time. She could only tell them apart from the color of their clothes. Apart from this, she could not replace any difference between them.

Summer looked around and asked him with a wary look, "Why are you here?"

"You asked me in the café why I was here? Do you think you are the owner and nobody can come in for coffee but you?"

Just as Connel ended, a waiter came over asking him what he wanted to drink and he ordered a cup of coffee.

Subconsciously, Summer didn't believe that Connel would be here for no reason. There couldn't be so many coincidences in the world.

If it wasn't a coincidence, why would Connel show up here?

In this situation, other than Leonardo's men, only those who had taken Rosie away would come looking for Summer.

In that case, could she assume that Connel was in league with the people who had got Rosie?

Summer thought a lot, but looked quite calm. She said lightly, "Of course you can come in."

After saying this, she drank up the coffee in front of her and stood up. "I have things to do and will be leaving now."

Connel did not stop her.

However, just as she was about to turn around and walk out, Connel suddenly said, "I saw Leonardo with his men across the road just now."

Summer paused and turned to look out the window without seeing Leonardo.

But when she look outside with her head up, she saw Leonardo walking towards the café with his men.

Summer's expression changed slightly. She shot a glance at Connel with mixed feelings and then walked towards the back door of the café with her bag in hand.

She could not be found by Leonardo yet. Although she was very suspicious of Connel's presence here, she was not completely sure that he was an accomplice of those who had taken Rosie. Summer quickly walked to the back door, but just as she stepped out, she felt someone grabbing her arm.

"This way." It was Connel's voice.

Summer turned around and looked at him. "What are you doing here? Where are you taking me?"

Connel only smiled at her mysteriously and tightened his grip on her arm.

Although Summer was quite tough, she was a woman after all. Being much weaker than Connel, she could only follow him with his grip.

They took the elevator to the underground parking lot. As soon as they walked out, there were already people waiting there.

They bowed respectfully and greeted, "Mr. Stanley."

Summer halted, finally realizing what was happening. "It's you?"

Summer's question was confusing, but Connel knew clearly what she meant.

His lips curved into a confident smile. "It's not too late for you to know it now. If you don't want to save your daughter, you can take the elevator up and replace Leonardo." He sounded the same as the way Stanley talked to her in the past.

Summer had just doubted that Connel might be colluding with those who got Rosie, but when he admitted it himself, she could not believe he would do that.

She was overwhelmed by the shock, but quickly regained her composure and said, "Let's go."

After saying this, she heard footsteps quite close by.

Next moment, they were surrounded.

Summer saw Tim with a glance. He nodded at her, and the bodyguards surrounding them dispersed from the middle to make way for someone. Leonardo emerged in front of her.

He looked at Summer with a serious expression and said in a cold voice, "Come here."

Summer's heart skipped a beat. Leonardo looked furious now, which was too scary.

Normally, if Leonardo was so angry, she would definitely do as he said. But under the circumstances, she only wanted to save Rosie and was unlikely to listen to him. Summer did not say anything. Leonardo stared at her and waited for her to speak.

A sort of awkward silence was building up.

"Is it that difficult?"

Connel broke the silence, took a step forward and stood beside Summer. He turned his head slightly to look at her and said in a casual and chatty tone, "Leonardo told you he didn't replace out anything about your daughter, didn't he?"

Summer did not know what Connel meant by this, so she turned to look at him in confusion.

Seeing Summer's response, Connel smiled and said, "With Leonardo's ability, replaceing out what happened to your daughter is a piece of cake. He is just hesitating about whether he should trade you for his mother."

After saying this, he turned to look at Leonardo. "It seems that Mr. Emerson has decided to trade Summer for news about your mother."

Summer repeated the end of his words, "Leonardo's mother? What do you mean? You'd better make it clear!"

"Didn't he tell you?" Connel pretended to be surprised at what she asked.00☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
