Predestined Marriage
Chapter 594 The Poisoned Coffee

Summer was absent-minded. Rosie thought Summer did not hear her and kept repeating, "Mommy, I saw Daddy! It's Daddy!" "It's Daddy. I know." Summer put her down, "I must put you down. My arms are a little sore."

She realized that Leonardo was right. Recently, Rosie had put on a little weight. Her arms sored after hugging Rosie for just a while. Summer put Rosie on the ground. Rosie held her hand and walked towards the gate of the villa. She kept saying, "Daddy, Daddy...."

Summer led Rosie over.

Just now, they were standing on the flower bed. So they had an advantage in position and could easily see Leonardo. However, now that they were standing on the ground, with a group of tall and strong men in front of them, they couldn't see Leonardo at all.

Summer wanted to pull Summer to squeeze between people to replace Leonardo. But Summer pulled Rosie back, squatted down and whispered to Rosie, "Rosie, we don't need to squeeze out. Daddy will come in soon. We should just wait in the hall."

Since Leonardo showed up at the gate, undoubtedly, he would be able to enter the villa. It was useless for them to squeeze around here.

Rosie pouted, a little disappointed, but still said obediently, "Alright."

Summer brought her back. After walking for a few steps, Rosie turned around and took a look before entering the hall.

Not long after the two entered the hall, Leonardo and Stanley entered together.

As soon as Leonardo entered, he saw Summer and Rosie.

A faint smile flashed across his originally emotionless eyes.

Summer understood what he meant. His eyes seemed to be saying, "I said I would come to see you."

She withdrew her gaze and turned to the side. She couldn't help but laugh.

Rosie was more direct. She happily ran over to Leonardo and said, "Daddy!"

Rosie was short, so she could only hug Leonardo's legs and begged for a hug after she ran over.

Leonardo bent down to pick her up and put her down on the sofa. He reached out and poked her forehead with a finger, "Daddy has something else to do."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Stanley and said, "Mr. Stanley, it's how you treat your guests? Just let me stand here?"

Stanley only glanced at Summer and did not say anything. The subordinate behind him made a gesture towards the staircase entrance, "This way, please."

It was a little strange. Leonardo and Stanley both hated each other. They were enemies. So why would Stanley still treat Leonardo with courtesy when Leonardo came to his villa? Normally, the two should be having a big fight now.

If things could be settled peacefully, that would be the best. However, when it happened between Leonardo and Stanley, it was quite weird.

Leonardo turned around and directly went upstairs, following Stanley to the study.

Summer stood still, a little confused.

Rosie was sitting on the sofa. She patted the seat beside her and shouted to Summer, "Mommy, come sit down."

Summer nodded and sat down beside Rosie.

Rosie grabbed Summer's hand and said expectantly, "Let's wait for Daddy together."

Summer touched her face and did not say anything.

In the study.

Leonardo did not consider himself a guest at all. As soon as he entered, without waiting for Stanley to speak, he directly sat down on the sofa. Then, he looked up at Stanley and said, "A cup of coffee. No sugar."

"Do you think this is a restaurant?" Stanley smiled angrily. He didn't expect Leonardo dared to come to him openly.

Leonardo was certain that Stanley would not harm Summer, so he was so fearless!

"Mr. Stanley, you have lived abroad since you were little. So you probably don't know much about the hospitality of our people. Our people are warm and hospitable. If any guests come, they will be treated to delicious food and drinks."

Leonardo sat on the sofa, his tone loose. He looked at Stanley with a faint smile, appearing exceptionally calm.

Stanley stared fixedly at Leonardo for half a second before calling for a servant, "Give Mr. Emerson a cup of coffee. No sugar."

He especially emphasized the words "no sugar".

In the hall.

Summer was very surprised to see the servants coming downstairs to bring coffee.

Stanley was actually so polite to Leonardo?

After sending the coffee to Stanley's study, the servant retreated.

Only Leonardo and Stanley remained in the study.

Jenny came back from outside and hurried through the door with a cold aura.

When she saw Summer and Rosie, she strode towards Summer and asked, "Is Leonardo here?"

Summer raised her head and looked upstairs, "They are in the study."

Jenny turned around and prepared to go upstairs. But suddenly, she turned around to look at Summer, "You don't seem to be worried about Leonardo at all. He is in our place now. Are you really not worried?" "What do I need to worry about?" Summer turned around and asked.

Jenny did not know what Summer's meant, so she stared at Summer and said nothing.

Summer walked to Jenny and stopped only half a step away from Jenny.

She stared at Jenny and lowered her voice as she said calmly, "Should I worry about the car accident Stanley caused, or about the poisoned coffee that the servant just brought up?" Jenny coldly snorted and went upstairs.

As soon as Jenny left, Summer heard Rosie ask, "Were you two quarrelling?"

"No, Aunt Jenny and I are just chatting." Seeing Rosie's unbelieving expression, Summer explained, "She has always looked very serious. We are fine."

Rosie blinked and nodded in confusion.

Although Jenny looked cold and indifferent, she treated Rosie well. Every time when she got some delicious snacks and fun little gadgets, she would ask servants to bring them to Rosie. Rosie was clever. She knew that Jenny was good to her, so she liked Jenny.

Jenny came down in less than ten minutes.

Summer immediately understood that Stanley was talking to Leonardo alone in the study.

What could these two men talk about together?

Summer felt torturous every second.

Fortunately, not long after, Leonardo came downstairs. He came out alone without Stanley.

As soon as Jenny saw Leonardo come out, she hurriedly went upstairs to see Stanley with a worried expression.

Summer walked towards Leonardo and looked at him. "Are you alright?" she asked.

"I'm fine." Leonardo lowered his eyes slightly and smiled at her.

"What did you say to Stanley?" Summer was really curious about what they had said.

Leonardo paused for a moment, then said seriously, "I told him that I was very grateful to him for helping me take care of my wife and daughter."

Summer looked at Leonardo with shock, "Do you think I would believe you?"

"I did say that." Leonardo smiled again, but there was no trace of smile in his eyes.
