Predestined Marriage
Chapter 583 Take My Life to Repay the Kindness

Summer bit the inside of her lip, held her breath, and then retorted, "Leonardo isn't like you! You are different!" "As I said, women are always deceiving themselves." With that, Stanley sneered and got up to leave.

Summer fell back onto the sofa, reached to her forehead.

She looked exhausted.

Only after Stanley went out of her sight did she raise her head. However, her beautiful eyes were full of calmness.

She wasn't so fervent and furious as she had behaved.

She had suspected it early before Stanley showed his hand.

Shocked and disappointed as she was, her judgment wasn't affected.

When she thought about it, she realized that every step from the appearance of Connel to her arrival in America was the result of Stanley's premeditation. Stanley knew Summer was kind and loyal to her friends. He misled her to believe that Stanley was taken away by Connel and lured her to Country M. When Summer arrived in Country M, she lived at the hotel in which Connel worked. Then, she was taken to Connel's villa.

In the villa, he did not make things difficult for her, nor did he tell her the whereabouts of Stanley. He just made herself anxious, like a headless chicken.

A few days later, he called her with Stanley's phone number. He said some ambiguous words, which made her want to leave.

Stanley had known Summer early and understood her. He naturally guessed that Summer would offer to leave.

Thus, he sent someone to inform Vicky of Summer's whereabouts.

Vicky hated her guts and would definitely not let the chance slip. But Stanley was not going to hurt Summer. Therefore, he must have promised Vicky something, which was why Vicky didn't strike a vicious blow.

Now that Summer was captured by Vicky, Leonardo would of course come to Country M.

Thus, the other goal of Stanley-to lure Leonardo to Country M-had been achieved as well.

When Leonardo and Tim were in Country M, it was as easy as pie for Stanley to take Rosie away from the Hoover City.

Leonardo got the news that Rosie was taken away right at the first day. And he naturally found out that it was Connel who made it.

At this time, Stanley's plot was transparent. He aimed at both Summer and Leonardo.

According to his attitude to Rosie, he actually had no intention of harming Rosie and Summer.

Summer could faintly feel that Stanley did not want to harm her and Rosie, but it was an indisputable fact that he had taken advantage of her trust to lure her to Country M.

Stanley did not intend to hurt her, but it did not mean that he would not harm Leonardo.

Three years ago, before she went to the island with Leonardo, Stanley appeared from nowhere and approached her.

Immediately after, Leonardo and she were involved in an accident overseas and Stanley saved her. What was more suspicious was that he took care of her with patience for three years. Ever since Stanley first appeared, there had been enough doubts about him.

He, a PhD in psychology, was a capable and well-educated man with high social status.

However, the degree was just a cover. His meticulous planning had already shown that he wasn't a person to be trifled with. His goal was not simple, and so was his true identity. Summer gradually sat up with her hands on each side of her thigh, clenching.

Whatever Stanley wanted and however deliberate his scheme was, he was just a human who would give the game away sooner or later! Suddenly, footsteps sounded.

Summer turned around and saw Jenny approaching.

She wore a black woolen overcoat of high textural quality with her hair tied into a neat ponytail. The scarlet scarf even made her dazzling. Jenny was actually a beauty.

"He showed his hand, right?" Jenny walked over and asked with a poker face.

Her tone was laced with strength, making others unable to deny.

Instead of resorting to insinuation, Summer temporized, "You mean Stanley?"

Jenny's face changed.

It reminded Summer the day she had just arrived. Jenny just ignored her when she asked about Stanley. It seemed she didn't like him.

But she was loyal to Connel and actually admired him. Summer was seized by confusion.

Could it be that Connel lied to her again?

If what Connel said was still a lie, she was fooled around by the two Bates brothers.

"He has always been a calm man. I didn't expect him to show his hands so soon." Cold and calm, Jenny seemed to be talking others' business.

But Summer knew that she would not say it without any cause.

"Summer, you are special to him. I hope you won't let him down." Jenny's tone was laced with warnings and threats.

Summer couldn't help but sneer.

"Ms. Jenny, what exactly are you referring to?" After a brief pause, she continued, "Is it the fact that I was kept in the dark, deceived and used by him? Should I pretend to be unaware and forgive him?" Jenny responded with a sneer. A trace of disdain crossed her face, "Don't forget, he saved you! If it weren't for him, you would have died long ago!"

"I'll always remember his kindness of saving me and I owe him a debt all my life. But does it mean that I should act like a machine, allowing him to control and use me at his will? If he is out of sorts, he can just kill me?!"

As she spoke, her tone went colder and colder.

It was precisely because her gratitude to Stanley that led to the present state.

Perhaps this was her fate. Stanley saved her, and she owed him a debt.

She was cheated, used and schemed by him. And it was her debt to pay. She had to repay it.

As the saying goes, turnabout is a fair play.

Jenny could sense the satire. She berated, "Ungrateful!"

Then, she left in a huff.

Summer fixed her eyes on her receding figure and then the ground.

According to Jenny's tone, Connel was Stanley.

This time, he didn't lie.0000☐☐
