Predestined Marriage
Chapter 754 Looks Like an Accident

The conversation between Summer and Rosie got nowhere. Summer did not achieve her goal, nor did she say what she wanted to say.

Breaking bad news to children could be easy, or difficult as well. They were prone to believe what they were told, and they were vulnerable to bad influence.

The next day, Summer planned to meet Trevin after she dropped off Rosie at the kindergarten.

Now that they had already filed a lawsuit, Leonardo would receive the court summon in a few days.

What she and Trevin needed to do now was to replace solid evidence and win this lawsuit.

After Summer watched Rosie enter the kindergarten, she returned to the car.

Just as she sat in the car, she heard a notification sound of news feed from her phone. Summer took out her phone while fastening her seat belt.

Just as she was about to delete the news, she suddenly stopped at sight of the headline.

"Jessica was injured at the event yesterday..."

Jessica was injured? Summer hastily clicked the news and read.

There were only a few pictures with obscure words. Summer directly dialed Jessica's number.

The phone rang for a long time but no one answered. Summer hung up the phone and sent a text message to Jessica. "The news says that you are injured. What happened? Are you really injured?" Jessica quickly replied, "I'm fine. It's only a small scrape."

"Really?" Although the media were prone to exaggerate things, Summer was a little worried.

Jessica replied, "I'm fine. Don't worry."

Summer did not believe her, texting, "Then why didn't you answer my phone?"

Jessica did not reply. Summer sent another message, "Which hospital? Send me the address. Hurry up."

After half a minute, Jessica sent her the address of the hospital.

Summer looked at the address of the hospital and sighed slightly. She knew that Jessica was lying to her.

Although Jessica looked simple and careless, she was actually very considerate. When something really happened to her, she did not like to tell anyone, as she was afraid that others would worry about her. Summer drove to the hospital where Jessica was staying.

Jessica was staying in a VIP ward. There were two bodyguards outside the door. Fortunately, Jessica's agent was there, and she knew Summer immediately.

When she saw Summer, she greeted, "Hello, Ms. Summer."

"Hello. How's Jessica?" Summer asked.

The agent hesitated for a moment and said, "Come in and take a look."

Summer got worried. If it was just a minor injury, the agent would tell her directly. Now she said nothing and asked Summer to go in and see, which meant Jessica could be seriously injured. Summer pushed open the door and entered the ward.

Jessica was lying on the bed. When she heard the noise, she turned her head and saw Summer. She smiled and greeted her with her bright voice as usual, "Summer, you've come so quickly!" Summer did not speak. She stood in front of the bed, looking at Jessica with a frown.

Jessica's forehead was bandaged with gauze, one leg was plastered, and one arm was bandaged with gauze as well. Although her face was pale, she looked at Summer with a smile. Summer was angry and distressed. She looked at Jessica angrily and asked, "So this is a small scrape?"

Jessica lowered her head in guilt, saying in a subdued voice, "More than a scrape. My bones are hurt a little..."

Summer said slowly, emphasizing every word, "Hurt a little?"

Intimidated by Summer's anger, Jessica said honestly, "My forehead is scraped and my leg is broken."

Summer snorted coldly and walked up to check on Jessica's leg. However, the leg was covered in thick plaster, and she couldn't see anything at all.

Jessica began to chatter, "Summer, I'm not picking on you. When you're in a bad mood, you are as gloomy as Mr. Emerson. It scares me to death. You don't..."

"You're in good spirits." Summer interrupted her and glared at her.

Jessica immediately stopped and giggled. She patted the edge of the bed and said, "Come here and sit down."

Summer sat down at the bed. Looking at the gauze wrapped around Jessica's forehead, she asked with a frown, "How did you get injured so badly? The news said that you got hurt during an event. What happened?"

"The organizer did not do a good job. The equipment was not in place. It was an indoor event, and a shelf fell down on me..."

Jessica made light of the accident, but Summer was shocked. "How could they make such a big mistake? Don't they know the face and legs matter a lot to an actress?"

Noticing that Summer was angry, Jessica hurriedly comforted her, "The doctor said that I will recover soon. I just need a good rest. My leg will be fine and the scrape on my forehead won't leave any scars. Besides, my agent has contacted a lawyer, and we are ready to go through the legal process."

Summer felt better.

"I haven't taken any proper vacation in years. This way, I can take a long vacation." Jessica said to herself, as if she was soothing herself or Summer.

Summer pondered for a moment and said, "It's good for you to rest for a while."

Even if Jessica took a rest for half a year, she didn't need to worry about her job. She did not intend to be a star with high popularity from the beginning, so she did not wish to stay in the spotlight all the time. As a result, she only needed to focus on keeping up the good quality of each work.

Moreover, Carl would give Jessica jobs.

They seemed to be on foul terms, but they had been entangled with each other for so many years, and the affection between them was deep. Even if it was not love, it was some other feelings.

Jessica moved her neck and said, "It is boring to stay in the hospital. Come and chat with me if you have time."

"I'll come when I have time." Summer looked around and said, "Didn't you tell your family?"

"My parents are traveling abroad." Jessica said pitifully.

Summer laughed, "I don't plan to write any new script these days, and I'll bring you soup every day."

"You're even better to me than my mother..." Jessica was so touched that she almost called Summer Mom.

Summer chatted with her for a while and left.

When she got out of the ward, the agent came back from outside with something in her hand, "Ms. Summer, are you leaving?"

"Yes." Summer looked at the bag in the agent's hand for a while, asking as if something came across her mind, "How is the investigation on Jessica's injury? Do you have any results?"

The agent shook her head. "It looks like an accident, but this mistake is so serious. We have cooperated with this organizer for a few times, and they have been rigorous..."
