It seemed that Lester was really angry at what she said earlier. Otherwise, he would not have let the maid warn her while using Stanley to vent his anger.
Lester was warning her. If she made trouble again, she would end up like Stanley. He was doing this only because he could do nothing to her for now.
When Summer realized what this was all about, she laughed, "Did Mr. Lester say that? Was he so idle as to talk nonsense like this?"
The servant was surprised slightly and then shut her mouth.
The people outside were still attacking Stanley. Summer called out, "Are you going to beat him to death?"
"This is none of your concern, Ms. Summer." the maid said with a poker face and pushed Summer into the dining room.
The food looked delicious.
Summer was hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat. However, after having only had two mouthfuls, she slowed down. Would they really kill Stanley?
Lester had groomed Stanley in person. Although Lester treated him as a tool, it still took him a lot of efforts.
Even though Lester hated his guts, he wouldn't let him die just like that. However, after being beaten up like that, would Stanley live?
No matter how many horrible things he had done, it was Stanley who had saved her in the explosion on the island. She owed him her life.
While thinking, Summer remained calm, her face betraying no emotions. She paid attention to the commotion outside as she ate.
After a while, it became quiet.
After her meal, Summer made her way towards the door in the wheelchair.
The maid came over. "Ms. Summer, where are you going?"
