Predestined Marriage
Chapter 666 I Won't Be Available

Summer stood still for a moment, and then she walked towards Leonardo. Leonardo leaned against the sofa, looking causal and indifferent.

Hearing her footsteps, he looked up at Summer and raised his eyebrows slightly, gesturing for her to say what she wanted to say.

Summer glanced at the sofa opposite him and did not sit down. She stood there and said to him, "I have something to tell you. I asked Tim to tell you, but now that you are here, I'll just tell you directly." She was not sure Leonardo was listening to her seriously or not. He took another deep suck of the cigarette. His fingers were slender and beautiful, and even his movement of smoking was exceptionally charming.

He tilted his head slightly and pressed the half cigarette in his hand into the ashtray. Then, he casually looked at Summer and said, "So?"

"I want to take Rosie to my place for a while." Summer cut to the chase.

He had no special reaction, just staring at Summer for a few seconds without moving. His silence made Summer a little nervous. Was Leonardo not willing to let her take Rosie to her place? After a while, Leonardo sat up straight and said, "It will soon be New Year's Eve." There was a complex emotion that Summer could not distinguish in his voice.

Summer suddenly remembered that during the time they were together, they've never enjoyed the New Year's Eve together. The first year, something happened to the Emersons. It's better not to mention the following three years.

And this year...

"If you want to spend New Year's Eve with Rosie, I can send her back before that." Summer's mind gradually cleared up and she understood the meaning behind Leonardo's words. Unexpectedly, Leonardo immediately refused, "No, you don't need to do that."

Before Summer could react, Leonardo said, "I have an appointment on New Year's Eve and won't be available. Come and pick her up tomorrow."

With that, he stood up and turned to go upstairs. His figure viewed from behind was cold, and he left without hesitation.

Summer bit her lips and walked out immediately as if she could win against Leonardo by this.

Walking out of the hall, Summer looked around and saw Bruce was holding his coat and squatting on the ground, smoking with a few bodyguards, like a leader of gangsters. The bodyguards' face was more or less wounded. They got into a fight? Summer walked straight over without asking much, and said, "Let's go."

With that, she marched off, and Bruce quickly followed.

Hearing Bruce was coming closer, Summer quickened her steps and did not turn around, "Did you fight with Leonardo's bodyguards?"

"Yes." Bruce replied and was unwilling to say one more word like before. Summer was already accustomed to Bruce's taciturnity.

"I don't want to get involve with Leonardo now. You know that as well. Although I'm your employer, your personal behavior has nothing to do with me." Bruce understood what Summer meant. He sneered, "He knew I beat up his bodyguard. This is my personal behaviour, and it has nothing to do with you." "That's good." Summer was very satisfied with Bruce's answer. She really didn't want to have anything to do with Leonardo at present.

But the funny thing was it was impossible for her to have nothing to do with Leonardo. He was her daughter's father and also the investor of her new drama.

On the way back, the carriage was abnormally silent. Summer felt unhappy after she saw Leonardo. Bruce didn't know why, but he didn't seem to be in a good mood either. The two had no intention to talk with each other and remained silent until they reached the destination.

After getting off, they went upstairs and parted ways. Summer returned home and opened the refrigerator to take a look, but there was nothing for her to eat.

She picked up a yogurt and drank it. While drinking yogurt, she picked up her phone and browsed the news. Just as she saw a piece of news about Jessica, her phone rang. It was Jessica who called.

"I'm downstairs at your apartment," Jessica said as soon as the phone was connected.

Summer was so shocked that she didn't control her hand well. The yogurt was squeezed out accidently and was spilled on her clothes.

"When did you come back?" Summer hurriedly put down the yogurt and wiped the yogurt off her clothes while talking to Jessica and putting her on speakerphone.

"It doesn't matter. I'm coming up now." Jessica was in such a hurry that she hung up the phone right after she finished speaking.

Summer wiped the yogurt and went to the bathroom to wash her hands. Then, she saw the unrecovered scar on her neck in the mirror.

Today, she wore a round turtleneck sweater, a scarf and a coat when she went out. After going home, she took off her coat and scarf, so the scar on her neck appeared.

Summer did not know why Jessica wanted to see her in such a hurry. Did she discover something? However, she did not intend to tell Jessica about Logan. After all, it was over. It's better to keep it a secret and not let Jessica worry.

Just as Summer changed into a turtleneck sweater with high collar and came out of the bedroom, the door was knocked by someone from outside with a BANG.

She quickly walked to the door and opened it, seeing Jessica at the door.

Obviously, Jessica just finished shooting and there was a suitcase on her hand. She wore a cap and the hat of the down jacket was also on her head. Her hair was a little messy and she did not wear make-up, but she looked very energetic.

"It took you so long to open the door. What are you doing?" Jessica complained and walked in with her suitcase.

Summer smiled, quietly tidied her sweater collar, and closed the door.

"Why did you suddenly come here without telling me in advance?" Summer asked as she poured water for Jessica.

Jessica entered the room, threw the suitcase aside and jumped onto the sofa. She sat on the sofa and waited for Summer to pour a glass of water for her.

Summer poured water and handed it to Jessica.

"Thank you." Jessica took a sip and placed it on the coffee table in front of her.

Summer knew t she had something to say, so she sat down beside her.

Sure enough, as soon as Summer sat down, Jessica leaned over with a serious expression, "I heard that the Emerson Group is going to invest in 'Lost City 2'?"

"You got the news fast." Even Summer learned about this today. She did not expect that Jessica would know it.

Jessica snorted and said proudly, "You underestimate me. I'm more connected than you."

Summer smiled and did not say anything.

"Did you and Leonardo make up?" Jessica asked with curiosity.

"No." Summer's expression dimmed a little.

She lowered her eyes and took a deep breath. "That's it. We are over."

"What?" Jessica was stunned.

She got off the plane excitedly and took a taxi to come here when she knew Leonardo was going to invest in "Lost City 2" and she thought that Leonardo had already made up with Summer.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
