When Summer woke up, she found herself lying on a bed. The room was extremely quiet, as if she was the only one here.
Suddenly, Leonardo's voice sounded, "Good morning." Summer turned around and saw him sitting beside the bed.
It turned out that he was also in the room. He just didn't speak.
"What time is it?" Summer put her hands on the bed and sat up.
Leonardo stepped forward and helped her up. His voice was gentle, "Eight o'clock."
He asked, "Are you hungry? Let's go downstairs and have breakfast."
He took a handbag from behind his back and gave it to Summer. She glanced at it and knew that was her clothes.
Since Summer didn't say anything, Leonardo reached out and touched her head, "Can you dress yourself? Or do you want me to help you?"
His tone was very serious, as if Summer was disabled.
Summer pushed him with a wry smile, "I'll do it myself. You go out."
"OK, I'll wait for you outside."
Leonardo stared at her worriedly for a moment and walked out of the room.
When the door was closed, Summer took out the clothes from the handbag.
The clothes were brand new with faint fragrance. Obviously, the clothes had been washed and dried.
Leonardo was truly considerate.
After getting dressed, Summer went out and saw Leonardo leaning against the wall, head down and lost in thought.
At the sound of the door opening, he instantly looked up.
With a calm expression, he sized Summer up and smiled, "It fits well."
Summer lowered her head and pulled her clothes, asking, "You bought it?"
Leonardo squinted and raised his eyebrows, "What? Who do you expect to buy the clothes for you?"
Summer was sure that Leonardo would get angry if she didn't give him a satisfactory answer.
"I hope..." she broke off in mid-sentence and suddenly smiled, running downstairs.
Leonardo followed behind and said angrily, "Summer! Stop! Slow down."
Actually, Summer couldn't run fast as she only ate a little in the past two days. Therefore, she slowed down soon.
She looked around and found it was a small villa with simple decorations. It was somewhat similar to Leonardo's villa in the Hoover City.
He probably had houses in any country in the world.
Tim was talking to two bodyguards in the living room. Seeing Summer come downstairs, he turned to look at her and said, "Good morning, Mrs. Emerson!"
"Tim, have you eaten?" Summer asked with a smile.
"No, I'll eat later." Tim nodded slightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Leonardo already walked downstairs.
He moved towards Summer and held her hand, taking her to the dining room. He said in a slightly stern tone, "Don't run fast. Look at yourself, you look terrible!"
Summer had been drugged by Vicky, causing her to be weak. Besides, Vicky didn't give her any water or food. As a result, Summer looked off color and haggard now.
However, she wasn't as terrible as Leonardo said!
