Sitting at the bedside and staring at Summer, Leonardo said in a gentle voice, "Get some sleep.
Summer closed her eyes and still held Leonardo's hand tight. Leonardo relaxed his arm so that Summer could hold his hand more easily.
Soon, Summer's breathing became steady. She fell asleep so quickly. Leonardo stayed by her side for a while. Making sure that Summer was asleep, he went out and gently closed the door.
Outside the door, the bodyguards were there.
Leonardo went downstairs and saw Douglas and Rosie in the hall. Douglas maintained a strange posture, because Rosie fell asleep against his chest. Rosie had just fallen asleep. Douglas didn't want to wake her up, so he didn't move.
Leonardo walked over and looked down at Rosie. Then, he bent forward to pick Rosie up and carried her upstairs without saying a word.
He took Rosie to Summer's room and put her next to Summer. Rosie was a peaceful sleeper and Summer was sleeping deeply, so Summer shouldn't be woken up by Rosie.
Then, Leonardo went downstairs again. He saw Douglas standing at the stairs. It seemed that Douglas was about to say something.
Leonardo glanced at him.
He wanted to ask something and yet didn't know how to ask. So he could only follow behind Leonardo and scratch his head without saying anything.
"Have you seen the person with me?" Leonardo said when walking out.
