Predestined Marriage
Chapter 688 They Don't Have Much Chances to Meet

Summer stopped and turned to look in the direction of the dining table.

Leonardo sat there alone, eating with his back to her.

The table wasn't big, but one could feel how lonely he must be.

Summer stood there for a moment, then walked towards the table and sat down in front of Leonardo.

Leonardo did not expect Summer to return. He was taken by surprise. Two seconds later, he regained his usual coldness.

"I want to ask you something."

Summer did not want to beat around the bush. They didn't have much chance to meet after all.

Leonardo glanced at her and motioned for her to ask.

"Where is Vicky? Is she still alive?" Summer tried to read Leonardo's expression in search for an answer.

Leonardo did not tell her where Vicky was, nor did he say whether Vicky was still alive. Instead, he sharply asked, "Has the Jarrett family come to see you?"

Summer was a little shocked. She only asked about Vicky. But Leonardo immediately guessed what was going on.

Even though she always knew how smart Leonardo was, she was still a little surprised.

"Fine." Summer did not intend to pursue much further. After all, they had nothing to do with each other now.

Leonardo did not need to answer her question. It was not his duty.

"Perhaps she is dead, or perhaps her life is worse than death." Leonardo looked at Summer and gave her an ambiguous answer.

What did that mean? Summer pursed her lips and stared at Leonardo without saying a word.

Leonardo didn't speak anymore and only focused on the noodles.

He quickly finished them. To Summer's surprise, Leonardo took the bowl into the kitchen and began to wash it.

Summer did not believe that Leonardo could wash the dishes by himself.

When Leonardo brought the bowl under the tap, Summer finally believe that Leonardo was really going to do it.

Summer was extremely surprised.

Leonardo quickly finished washing. It was just a bowl and a pair of chopsticks.

He went out and saw Summer still sitting at the dining table, "After all, there is no servant here. I have to do my own work."

Summer narrowed her eyes and snorted softly.

The reason he said that was because Summer had said that she was not a servant.

Summer didn't want to reply, but Leonardo seemed to suddenly have an interest and asked, "Why do you want to ask about Vicky? Are you asking for the Jarrett family, or for yourself?" "Can I be curious?" Summer raised her eyebrows and glared at Leonardo.

Leonardo stared at Summer for a moment and said, "If they really want to replace Vicky, you can tell them that Vicky is with me. Tell them to ask for me."

Leonardo asked the Jarrett family to look for him? What did he plan?

Leonardo just said that Vicky might be dead or something.

In other words, Leonardo had indeed tortured Vicky when he was in Country M, but he still spared her life.

"If you want the Jarrett family to see you, you can tell them yourself." Summer could not understand what Leonardo was thinking, nor could she understand what he was going to do. Summer didn't know why Leonardo would say this. She felt bored.

But Summer felt that she was even more bored to talk nonsense with Leonardo here.

She got up and pushed the chair away, then went back to her room.

Leonardo stood there and looked in the direction of Summer's bedroom. His gaze paused for two seconds, then he sat down on the chair that Summer had just sat on.

He looked around the room, and then lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Summer stayed in her room and kept an eye on the movement outside until Rosie's voice sounded.

When Rosie saw her, she called out, "Mom!"

Just up, Rosie was still groggy and looked sluggish.

Summer rubbed her head and took her to the bathroom to wash her face.

It was already evening, so they could prepare dinner now.

Summer asked Rosie to play in the living room and then went into the kitchen.

However, Leonardo followed behind her.

Summer frowned slightly, "What are you doing here?"

"What can I do for you?" Leonardo was serious, as if he really wanted to help.

"No need." Summer replied coldly and no longer looked at him.

Leonardo walked to her side and supported his hand on the table. He tilted his head slightly and said in a low voice, "We will have dinner together. I have to do my part. Otherwise, someone will complain..." Summer suddenly raised her head and interrupted him, "Go wash the dishes."

Leonardo was clearly looking for trouble, talking to her like this!

Summer complained once that she wasn't his servant. She believed all this nonsense was because Leonardo was not over it.

Such a narrow-minded man!

However, Leonardo did not say anything else. He did go to wash the dishes.

As Summer pickled the fish, she looked at Leonardo from time to time and found that he was really serious about his washing tasks. Summer let out a sigh of relief. Maybe she's overthinking it.

Perhaps Leonardo really came to her for dinner because of Rosie... After that, they did not communicate much.

While Summer was cooking, she ordered what she wanted, and Leonardo handed it to her.

They cooperated well and didn't make any mistakes.

They were like a couple going about with their peaceful and happy life.

This thought only flashed through Summer's mind and quickly vanished.

They were not a couple. She was disenchanted with reality.

The dinner was very sumptuous and the table was filled with all kinds of dishes.

Summer even posted a picture of it on her Twitter.

Previously, Eliza had told Summer that she could send more posts on her Twitter to make herself closer to fans.

Her followers had been growing in number since 'Lost City' was released. There were people who loved her and as many people who hated her. She received both praise and criticism.

As soon as Summer posted the picture, she had a comment.

There was nothing special about the ID--"Love Summer". The comment was simple--"Happy New Year's Eve."

Summer replied, "You too."

Rosie poked her arm and said, "Mom, put down your phone when you eat."

"You are right." When Summer put down her phone, she noticed that Leonardo did the same.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
