Predestined Marriage -
Chapter 613 What Is This Hypocrisy About?
Leonardo raised his eyes slightly and looked at Summer who was staying with Stanley not far away.
After a few seconds, he slowly said, "Stanley never does anything unprepared. He was the one who released the news that he would bring Summer to this banquet."
"What is he trying to do?" Tim thought for a while and asked, "I can understand that he released the news on purpose to lure us over. But isn't he worried that we will use this opportunity to take away Mrs. Emerson?"
"Do you think Summer will come with us?" Leonardo's voice became colder, with his jaw tightened. His entire body emitted an extremely suppressed anger.
"Mr. Emerson, what you mean is..." Tim raised his head and looked in Summer's direction as he spoke.
They all saw Summer's reaction before.
Summer was very abnormal today, as if she had turned into a completely different person.
"Is it possible that Mrs. Emerson was acting all of these for Stanley deliberately?" Tim could only think of this possibility but nothing else.
"Stanley never trusts others easily. He only trusts himself. He has been close with Summer before and knows what kind of person Summer is. Even if Summer, that stupid woman, has superb acting skills, do you think Stanley will believe it easily?"
Leonardo was very extremely calm when he said these. He was so calm that Tim was surprised.
If it was Leonardo before, let alone such a calm analysis, he would have been unable to control himself but beat Stanley when he saw Summer and Stanley standing together intimately.
"Do you mean Mrs. Emerson did not pretend at all?" Tim thought that he had guessed correctly, but Leonardo's words led to more confusion.
"If Mrs. Emerson was not acting, what would have happened to her?" Tim knew Summer well after being in contact with her for so long.
"The last time I saw Mrs. Emerson in the villa, she looked completely normal when I gave her your pen."
During the fire last time, Leonardo almost passed out because of the smoke after staying inside for too long.
Even under a circumstance like that, Leonardo still insisted on going back and replace the thing he was looking for.
Tim had no choice but to knock Leonardo unconscious. He asked the bodyguards to take Leonardo away, then went back to the scene and looked for the thing for Leonardo.
He did not expect to see Summer inside.
Under the situation, he was not able to rescue Summer with Stanley's men guarding outside. Therefore, he could only give Leonardo's pen to Summer and let her wait for them to save Leonardo. Tim knew the importance of that pen to Leonardo, so Summer should know it too.
However, only a few days later, when he saw Summer again, she was completely a different person.
Leonardo lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Hypnosis."
"Hypnosis?" Tim repeated what Leonardo said.
"Stanley never trusts others except himself. Otherwise, how dare he bring Summer in front of me?" As Leonardo spoke, his expression became frosty.
"At the beginning, you did not remember Mrs. Emerson at all. However, Mrs. Emerson did not seem like she completely forgot us."
Tim thought about the possibility that Summer might have been hypnotized.
But Summer clearly still remembered them, so he did not pursue with this possibility anymore.
"The purpose of hypnosis is not to make a person lose his or her memory. It is more about guiding someone's mental consciousness." Leonardo stood up.
He straightened his suit and looked like he was about to leave this place.
"Mr. Emerson, where are you going?" Tim asked.
"Do not follow me. Keep your eyes on Stanley."
Leonardo only left this sentence and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Tim turned around and looked towards Stanley, but Summer was not beside him anymore.
Leonardo passed through the crowd and walked towards the restroom. He went straight to the ladies' restroom.
Summer came out of the cubicle when he entered. She was slightly stunned when she saw Leonardo. Then, she crossed her arms and sneered, "I do not know Mr. Emerson has the habit of entering the ladies restroom."
Leonardo did not say a word as he started inching toward Summer. Summer's face stiffened for a moment, but she did not take a step back seeing Leonardo approaching.
Leonardo walked up to her. His deep voice carried a trace of undetectable apprehension, "What is going on?"
"I do not understand what Mr. Emerson was talking about." Summer was about to leave after answering his question. She did not look at Leonardo.
But how could Leonardo let her go easily?
He reached out, grabbed Summer's arm, and said in a deep voice, "You have to let me know what happened."
At that moment, a female guest came into the restroom. She exclaimed when she saw a man inside, "Excuse me, gentleman. This is the ladies' restroom. Please go out!" Leonardo turned around. His face was filled with dense hostility, "Leave!"
Seeing this, the female guest did not dare to stay any longer. She glanced at Summer and immediately left.
Summer tried to shake off Leonardo's hand as she saw this.
However, Leonardo pulled her so tight that she could not shake it off at all.
The two of them entangled together, with one trying to pull another, whereas another one wanted to escape.
In the chaos, both of their phones fell onto the ground.
Without knowing where the strength came from, Summer pushed Leonardo away and bent her knees to pick up her phone.
Coincidentally, their phones were of the same brand and model.
Summer looked at the two identical phones and picked up the one closer to Leonardo.
But it belonged to Leonardo.
There was no chance that Summer did not know it.
But she deliberately took Leonardo's phone.
Summer held Leonardo's phone and pressed the power button. The screen lit up.
She clicked on Leonardo's phone screen, then lifted the phone to Leonardo. She pointed at the photo of her on the phone's desk. "Mr. Emerson, why are you doing this? Using my picture as your cover, what is this hypocrisy about?"
Leonardo's eyes darkened, "Don't you know I never pretend my love for you?"
"How disgusting!" Summer sneered and threw out the phone in her hand.
Leonardo's eyebrows tightened, "Summer, are you crazy?"
"I have already gone crazy. I went crazy long ago when you gave up on Rosie's life! Just wait, I will not let you off!" Summer picked up her phone and left after she finished speaking.
On the other hand, Leonardo did not move. His expression was complicated.
The cover and lock screen of his phone were both photos of Summer, and he set up a password for his phone. Summer could see her own picture every time the phone lit up, but she deliberately typed in the password and unlocked his phone.
