Predestined Marriage
Chapter 644 But I Have My Conditions

Summer neither agreed nor refused.

She was stunned.

Since she met Leonardo, she had experienced so many things that she had never thought about before. However, it was the first time for her to hear what Bruce said.

It turned out that underground organizations of killers did exist.

Bruce watched as Summer got into the car. Then he returned to the villa.

Sitting in the car, Summer felt shocked.

She buckled up and put her hands on the steering wheel for a moment before starting the car.

When she got out of the villa area, a familiar car drove over.

After getting closer, Summer realized it was Leonardo's car.

Summer was surprised, but she pretended not to see him and continued to drive forward.

However, Leonardo got in her way.

They stopped for a while. Finally, Summer got off, and Leonardo also got out of the car.

Summer walked up to him and looked into his dark eyes. But she felt uneasy and immediately avoided his gaze, "You are in my way."

Leonardo noticed her petty actions. He said seriously, "Next time you come to see Rosie, just ignore Bruce."

Summer was a little surprised. She pursed her lips and asked, "Why?"

"Bruce is Kate's bodyguard. And Kate is my family. Why should I tell you the reason?" Leonardo's voice was as deep as usual and had no warmth. It felt like he was talking to a stranger. Summer opened her mouth slightly, but felt something was stuffed into her throat. She wanted to speak but could not make a sound.

She hadn't adapted to Leonardo's cold voice.

Leonardo sneered at her, but it also meant that he still had feelings for her.

What he said made sense, and Summer could not refute.

For a moment, Summer wanted to ask him why he agreed to break up with her.

Why did he kick her out?

However, her pride and reason stopped her.

Summer clenched her hands tightly and went back into the car.

Leonardo watched expressionless as she turned around.

Summer had a slender figure, and looked thin and weak even in a heavy coat.

He watched Summer get into the car. Then he turned around to drove away and let her pass.

After Summer left, he went to the villa.

Leonardo got out of the car and walked into the house. The servants and bodyguards passing by lowered their heads slightly to greet him.

"Mr. Emerson."

Leonardo put on a long face and looked distant, as he strode inside without saying a word.

The servants didn't dare to say anything and held their breaths.

When he reached the hall and saw Bruce. He stared coldly at him, "Come to the study."

After saying that, he went upstairs.

Bruce followed him into the study.

Leonardo suddenly approached him and grabbed his collar.

Both of them were tall and strong. They looked similar as they stood together. However, if one took a closer look, it could be seen that they had different temperaments.

Bruce was a man who killed. As a killer, he had a murderous aura; while Leonardo appeared to be solemn, and looked more self-collected and noble.

Leonardo fiercely pulled Bruce's collar. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "What did you say to Summer?"

Bruce did not struggle, nor did he want to attack Leonardo. He said in a flat voice, "I told Ms. Summer what she wanted to know."

"You want me to persuade Kate to receive the treatment. I'll do it! But..." Leonardo paused. Then he shouted, "Don't talk to Summer again! You know I have numerous ways to torture you!" Hearing this, Bruce's eyes lit up. He nodded, "Alright."

Only then did Leonardo let him go.

Leonardo adjusted his sleeves and said slowly, "But I have conditions."

"I accept them." Bruce did not even hesitate and said directly.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open from outside.

They heard the sound and turned to look at the door.

Kate hurriedly walked in. She looked surprised when she found the atmosphere between them was not intense. She immediately explained, "I thought you guys..."

Leonardo glanced at Bruce and said, "You can leave now."

Hearing Leonardo's words, Bruce glanced at Kate and went out.

"Leonardo..." Kate did not know what they had talked to each other. She always felt guilty in front of Leonardo. And she did not know what to say now.

Leonardo glanced at Kate. He walked to the sofa and sat down. Then he said with an expressionless face, "Kate, how many years have it been since we sat together and talked?"

"It's been a long time." Kate didn't know why Leonardo suddenly mentioned this. She sighed in her heart.

Leonardo's gaze turned cold and he changed the topic, "Considering what you did before, I think it's a miracle that I didn't hurt you."

Kate smiled bitterly, "I know."

"You didn't receive the treatment recently. Are you going to apologize to me with your death? I don't want that. It doesn't mean anything to me." Leonardo's tone was filled with sarcasm. Kate's expression changed. She shook her head repeatedly, "I don't..."

Before she finished, Leonardo said, "Then go cure your illness."

Kate suddenly raised her head to look at him, "You..."

"Get out of here tomorrow. The sooner, the better. I don't want to see you in this house." As Leonardo finished, he opened the door and went out.

She stood alone in the study room. Kate was confused for a while before she realized that Leonardo was asking her to continue the treatment.

Leonardo ignored her completely before. Now he suddenly came back. And after he talked to Bruce in the study, he asked her to receive the treatment. Kate was not stupid. She knew Leonardo did it for some reason.

She also knew Leonardo's temperament. He had principles and was not a kind person.

Kate walked slowly out of the room, and saw Bruce standing at the door.

Bruce stood in front of her with his head lowered as usual. He looked respectful, but in fact, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He was more proud than anyone else. Kate looked up at him, "What did you say to Leonardo?"

Bruce raised his eyes and said in a flat voice, "What can I say to change his mind?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
