Summer kept importunate and did the silent thing to force Leonardo to send her to the hospital.
In movies, there were often scenes of sick protagonists saying goodbye to their beloved ones. At that time, she thought that there was no need to do so. A family wouldn't care if you were seriously ill or view you as a burden.
However, only after Summer became disabled did she understand such an action.
She felt that she was a burden to Rosie and Leonardo. She didn't have to face Leonardo and Rosie every day when if she was in the hospital. In that way, it would be easier for any of them.
But Leonardo refused.
In the past few days, when Summer was wandering around the courtyard, she discovered that there were more bodyguards outside. Half of them were familiar to her and the other half were strangers.
Leonardo walked out of the house with a thin blanket in his hand. He went straight to Summer and covered her legs with the blanket. Then he looked up at Summer and found that Summer was staring at the door.
Leonardo touched her head and asked, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
"I think there are more bodyguards than before." Summer looked at Leonardo and asked in a tactful way.
Leonardo also looked at the door and said, "Some old employees have resigned, so there are new faces."
"Is that so?" Leonardo's excuse sounded unreliable.
"Let's go back. It's too cold outside at night."
Leonardo stood up and pushed Summer's wheelchair into the room.
Leonardo pushed Summer into the study. He gently put her on the sofa so that she could read some books to pass the time. And he sat at his desk to deal with the business.
After a while, he looked up at Summer and found that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.
