Predestined Marriage
Chapter 694 He Is Very Tired

Leonardo glanced at Summer, and he looked even colder than before. "I've had my breakfast already."

Summer frowned slightly. Did she annoy him? Why did he give her that attitude? Summer sneered and took her bowl to the kitchen.

Rosie always enjoyed her meals, and she was focused on eating. Even though Leonardo was watching her, she was not disturbed and kept eating.

Leonardo sat at the side and watched Rosie eat. He propped his head with his elbow on the dining table, leaning sideways and looking exceptionally focused.

Rosie finished her meal quickly. She jumped down from her chair and ran to the kitchen with her bowl. "Mom, I'm finished."

Summer took the bowl. Rosie ran back to the living room and said something to Leonardo. Summer looked at them for a while before looking down at the bowl. She had to get used to everything and accepted the reality.

It was time to talk to Leonardo about Rosie's custody. If Leonardo married Amber, she would not treat Rosie well. Therefore, it was urgent for Summer to take over her custody. Summer was preoccupied. So, she spent a long time washing one bowl with the tap on.

"It took you almost ten minutes to wash a bowl. How did you manage to finish the script for 'Lost City 2' before the New Year?" Suddenly, Leonardo said in a mocking tone behind her. After breaking up with Leonardo, Summer could not put up with his attitude anymore.

She turned around and looked at him expressionlessly. Then she remembered that his company was one for the investor of "Lost City 2". She could only withhold her words. "Mr. Emerson, thank you for recognizing my ability at work. But you don't have to worry about my life. After all, we don't live together."

After Summer finished speaking with a smile, Leonardo's face turned to an ugly green. Summer secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then she planned to walk past Leonardo. However, just as she was about to walk away, Leonardo suddenly grabbed her wrist. Summer frowned and tried to shake off his hand, but she failed after struggling. "What are you doing? Let me go!" Rosie was outside, so Summer lowered her voice when she spoke.

However, Leonardo did not let go of her. Instead, he pulled her to him and embraced her. Summer was shocked and tried to warn him. "Leonardo!"

She was trapped in the arms and forced to look up at him.

Leonardo's perfect face was so close to her. He was as handsome as before, but Summer could see some complicated emotions in his eyes.

Summer froze when Leonardo stared at her like that. She knew that she should push him away now. However, her hand stopped as if it didn't receive her orders. They stared at each other for a long time. Suddenly, Leonardo lowered his head and kissed her.

Summer came to her senses. "You...."

She opened her mouth to curse Leonardo, but it gave him a chance to press his lips onto hers.

The deeper Leonardo kissed, the calmer Summer became.

And she became very disappointed. Men were born to be physically stronger than women, so Summer could not push him away.

Her lips almost went numb when Leonardo suddenly stopped and hugged her tightly.

For some reason, Summer felt some fragility in this hug. A fragility from Leonardo. He seemed tired.

Summer was stunned by the thought. Then Leonardo pushed her away and strode out of the kitchen.

As he passed by the living room, Rosie was playing with a toy. Leonardo bent down and picked her up with one hand. Then he walked out without any hesitation. Rosie's doll fell when Leonardo suddenly picked her up. She complained, "My doll!" But Leonardo didn't care what she said and carried her out with one hand. When Summer chased after him, the door was slammed shut. She stared at the door and thought of Leonardo's embrace.

What was wrong with her? Or what was wrong with Leonardo?

Leonardo suddenly hugged and kissed her. She should be angry at him. However, she only felt that he was very tired and that he needed her. Summer laughed at herself. Leonardo was an unpredictable man. People could seldom feel that he was truly happy.

Even if he needed someone now, it could only be Amber, not Summer.

Summer thought about it over and over again. In the end, she couldn't help but call Tim.

"Tim, can we meet later if you have time? I want to talk to you about something."

Tim knew it must be about Leonardo.

So, he replied, "Alright."

Summer and Tim met in a remote coffee shop.

Tim arrived at the café on time.

"Tim, I'll get straight to the point. I asked you out today about Leonardo." That was how smart people talked. No one beat around the bush.

Tim nodded slightly and said sincerely, "Ms. Summer, if you want to know anything, just ask me. I'll tell you everything I know."

"I want to know what Leonardo has been doing recently."

Tim looked a little surprised. Perhaps he thought that Summer's question was too casual.

"Mostly Mr. Emerson is at the company for meetings. Sometimes he has dinner with others, but he would only be there briefly. And..."

Tim looked struggling, as if he didn't know how to put his words.

So, Summer said the rest for him, "Then he goes out with Amber?"

"Yes." Tim lowered his head in embarrassment.

But Summer looked much more natural. She was not awkward at all, "Is he happy with Amber?"

"I was not there when Mr. Emerson met Miss Amber. So, I don't know." Tim thought Summer would ask something serious. He didn't expect it was all about Mr. Emerson and Miss Amber. Tim had failed to read Leonardo. Now he couldn't see through Summer, either.
