Carl was still digesting Leonardo's words. Leonardo patted on his shoulder, took the suitcase from him and walked towards Summer.
Summer and Douglas had finished several rounds. Leonardo carried the suitcase over and sat down beside Summer. He leaned his head to her ear and whispered, "How much did you lose?"
He placed one hand on the back of Summer's chair in an intimate manner. Summer turned to glance at him and said, "Twenty thousand dollars.
Leonardo chuckled. It seemed to be a big gamble. In just a few rounds, she had lost 20, 000 dollars.
Leonardo did not feel that Summer had lost much. However, Summer wasn't such a woman. She was willing to spend money, but not that much. She would just pay for what was necessary.
He also knew that Summer had made up her mind to delight Jessica, so she lost deliberately.
Summer said to Leonardo when it was not her turn, "Take the money."
Leonardo bent down, opened the suitcase, and took out two stacks of money from it.
He put the 20, 000 dollars away.
"Fifteen thousand to Jessica and five thousand to Douglas." Although Summer was still focusing on the cards, her words were for Leonardo.
When Leonardo distributed the money to them, he looked amicable. However, his aura was so strong that both Jessica and Douglas were afraid of him.
Douglas whispered, "Don't. We're family. You don't have to do this..."
Leonardo raised his eyebrows, and Douglas immediately shut up and took the money.
Jessica didn't dare to accept the money too. She said carefully, "We just played for fun. I can't take the money."
Leonardo said indifferently, "Take it and buy whatever you want."
Jessica was stunned and turned to look at Summer, and Summer blinked at her. Jessica laughed and accepted the money.
