With a gloomier face, Leonardo looked askance at Stanley and said, "She's my woman. Why would I give her to someone else?"
Stanley was shocked, then he laughed, "Mr. Emerson, you're right. If there is nothing else, I will go out first. Someone is waiting for me outside."
Leonardo knew he said it on purpose. Stanley meant Summer was waiting for him when he said "someone".
Leonardo was never a kind person. Stanley crossed the line. It was not Leonardo's way to go easy on Stanley again.
"Then let her wait." Leonardo sneered, stood up, and walked straight out.
Stanley didn't understand what Leonardo meant. But in the next moment, after a few bodyguards entered, Stanley got it. It was clear. Leonardo was planning to ask his bodyguards to watch and keep Stanley inside.
Stanley had thought too highly of Leonardo. Stanley could no longer maintained his smile.
"Leonardo, are you so unreasonable towards Summer? How can you lock me up like that?"
Leonardo just ignored his question and instructed the bodyguard, "After the banquet ends, send Mr. Stanley back."
After that, Leonardo put his hands into the pockets of his suit trousers and slowly walked out.
After the door was closed, a bodyguard expressionlessly said to Stanley, "Mr. Stanley, please hand over your phone."
Stanley was speechless. How careful Leonardo was.
Stanley took a deep breath and handed the phone to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard followed Leonardo's instructions and found Summer's phone number. The bodyguard edited a text message and sent it out.
Seeing this, Stanley frowned slightly, "What did you say?"
The bodyguard glanced at him and said nothing, nor did he return the phone to Stanley.
Stanley clenched his fists and then unclenched them.
Summer felt the phone in her handbag vibrate. She took it out and found a text message from Stanley.
"I have something to do. I left."
It was very simple and there was nothing special about it.
Summer stared at these words for a moment before looking up at the entrance of the banquet hall.
She just happened to see Leonardo walking into the hall, without Stanley behind him.
Jessica also saw Leonardo and asked Summer, "Where's Dr. Stanley?"
"He said that he had something to do and left. " Summer said without turning her head.
Jessica said lazily, "What's the hurry? He didn't even say hello before leaving."
Leonardo didn't even look this way and walked straight to sit beside Michael.
Summer lowered her head, found Stanley's phone number from her phone, and gave him a call.
But the call was hung up.
Then she received a text message saying, "Driving."
Summer stared at Leonardo for a while, then looked down and pondered.
If Leonardo really wanted to do something to Stanley, he would not take Stanley away in her face.
Stanley might have some errands to run.
Perhaps because of Amber, there were basically no women approaching Leonardo.
Most of the people present today were businessmen, but Amber's background was better than any of them. Naturally, no one would like to offend her.
"It's getting late. Let's go." Summer put her phone back in her bag and stood up.
"Are you leaving now?" Jessica didn't want to leave now. She wanted to watch the fun for a while longer.
