Predestined Marriage
Chapter 627 Come Back

Summer found her speechless after Leonardo's words.

She stared at Leonardo, observing his expressions and guessing what he was thinking.

But she got nothing from his expressions.

She said impatiently, "So you take it for granted that you kept everything you thought you didn't want me to know from me? Do you think it was good for me?"

Leonardo narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you think telling you everything is good for you then?"

Summer felt that her knowledge of Leonardo was so limited after all.

Was he smart? No, he was so obsessive and stubborn.

What she and Leonardo tried to express was not even close.

"Go to sleep." Summer stood up and walked upstairs.

The bedroom that Kate prepared for her was the one Leonardo stayed last time.

The room was cozy and the bed was soft.

Turning off the light, Summer's eyes remained open in the darkness. She couldn't sleep.

She kept tossing and turning, thinking about Rosie.

When she thought Leonardo had fallen asleep, she sat up and turned on the bedside lamp, about to check on Rosie.

She was still worried about Rosie.

However, she had only just stood up when Leonardo, who she thought was sleeping, sat up too and asked in a clear voice, "Where are you going?"

Summer was startled. She turned to look at Leonardo and said, "You..."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "I want to check on Rosie."

"I'll go." Leonardo got out of bed, putting on his coat and went out.

This just happened so fast. Before Summer could react, the door was closed.

But she still followed.

Rosie was in sound sleep.

Back in the room, they did not go to bed in sync.

"I don't want you to know about it because I don't want to see you like this."

Leonardo spoke. In the silent night, his voice sounded deeper with mixed feelings.

"But if I found it out a long time later, have you ever thought how guilty I would feel?" Summer did not expect Leonardo to understand her.

Neither of them had a good sleep at night.

The next morning, they got up early.

Summer went to check on Rosie before going downstairs to make breakfast.

She got Rosie's breakfast before everyone else's.

It was cold. Rosie slept late at night, so she got up late in the morning.

Summer made her breakfast and then brought it upstairs.

Rosie had already woken up and was staring blankly out of the window.

"Good morning." Summer walked over and placed the breakfast on the table, smiling.

Rosie was hungry. Attracted by the smell, she stared at the breakfast on the table.

"You must be hungry. Now get cleaned and dressed so you can have your breakfast." Summer kept herself gentle and slow to avoid startling her.

Rosie stared at Summer expressionlessly. Summer didn't know what she was thinking, or perhaps she didn't think of anything.

Right on the cue, the door was pushed open.

Before she could turn around to see who it was, she saw Rosie shrink in fear.

"It's fine, don't be afraid." Summer comforted Rosie gently.

She was delighted inwardly.

Before Leonardo arrived, Rosie didn't react at all, like a malfunctioned robot.

However, Leonardo came last night, and Rosie was afraid of him. She was afraid!

Although it wasn't a good reaction, it was at least a reaction that normal people would have.

At the very least, Rosie could feel what normal people would feel. Summer was ecstatic.

Rosie kept staring at Leonardo vigilantly.

Seeing Leonardo coming nearer, Rosie ran into Summer's arms.

Summer couldn't believe what was happening, dumbfounded.

It took her a few seconds to come through and hugged Rosie.

Summer turned to Leonardo with a triumphant smile.

After coming back from abroad, Leonardo had been missing Summer's true smiles.

Seeing Summer so happy, Leonardo couldn't help but laugh.

Leonardo's arrival had aroused Rosie's perception of emotions.

As long as she saw Leonardo, she would seek protection from others and hide in their arms.

But if Leonardo was leaving, she would peek at him despite her fear.

That was a mixed of love and fear, Summer thought.

Rosie was cute either way in Summer's eyes.

Rosie's breakfast went very well.

When Summer took Rosie's plates out, she found Leonardo standing outside, waiting for her.

Taking the plates over, Leonardo walked downstairs without saying a word.

At the kitchen, Leonardo said, "It's time to go back."

"Go back?" As soon as these words came out, Summer realized Leonardo was talking about coming back to Hoover City.

Summer became serious and wandered her attention to Rosie's plate.

"No, I'm not going back without Rosie. I need to look after her. Given her situation, how could I leave her alone and return to Hoover City? After a moment of silence, Leonardo said, "Then take Rosie with us."

Summer raised her head and looked at him in doubt.

"You're not just Summer, and I'm not just Leonardo. I'm Rosie's father. I hope she can get well soon. Nothing matters more than Rosie to me." Looking Summer in her eyes, Leonardo said word by word, clearly and firmly.

They looked at each other for a while and smiled.

Summer then thought of something else.

"What about your sister? What about her?" Summer's smile faded at the thought of Kate's cancer.

Kate was Leonardo's sister. They had the same blood in their veins.

Leonardo fell silent.

Summer asked him softly, "Can you tell me what you are thinking?"

There was no eternal love or eternal hate in this world. The heart was the most unfathomable thing. Summer knew Leonardo had mixed feelings for Kate. And that feelings might influence his decisions.

"If possible, she can come back with us." Summer said while looking at Leonardo. Seeing that Leonardo's face did not change, she continued, "After all, she is Rosie's aunt."

She did not say that Kate was Leonardo's sister for she was afraid that Leonardo wouldn't buy it.

Leonardo's heart had softened, but he could not make up his mind. Then Summer would do it for him!0000☐☐☐☐
