Rosie enjoyed the drama by the door and waited for a long time, but Leonardo and Trevin didn't fight. She sighed in disappointment and returned to the restaurant.
Embarrassment diffused in the living room. Leonardo's temperament was super cold, as if he could stand up and kick Trevin out at any moment.
Summer broke the ice and asked Trevin, "How have you been?"
"Not bad. Stanley has been charged with killing my father." Trevin looked at Summer's legs.
Summer had known that Leonardo used Trevin in a way. She wasn't sure if Trevin was aware of it.
Summer said lightly, "Congratulations."
Trevin seemed to have something else to say. However, he only glanced at Leonardo, and then picked up the cup of water.
"Anything else?" Leonardo looked at Trevin.
But before Trevin answered, Leonardo raised his hand slightly and said again, "See Mr. Trevin off."
Tim came over. "Mr. Trevin, this way, please."
Summer said, "I'll see you off."
Hearing this, Leonardo frowned and turned his head to look at Summer. Summer didn't escape his gaze. "I can see him off alone."
"Summer." Leonardo seemed to be warning her, but Summer didn't step back.
She and Trevin were friends, and she had nothing to be ashamed of. However, Leonardo wouldn't be assured unless he could control her completely.
Summer was tender, but it didn't mean she was a nose of wax. Leonardo's desire for control was very strong and wanted her to be only his. She had to do something; otherwise, he would be more and more paranoid.
