Hearing this, Summer turned to look at Leonardo.
Although she did not know when Charlie had persuaded Leonardo to return to the Emerson Group, she understood what Carl said.
She looked at Leonardo for a while before saying slowly, "You’ve been planned to return to the Emerson Group for a long time, haven’t you? You just never said yes to Grandpa, and deliberately let him have me persuade you, didn't you?"
Before Leonardo replied, she continued, "In this case, Grandpa ... will appreciate me for it."
Summer paused for a moment before saying the last few words.
Leonardo looked at Summer with interest, "Go on. Is there anything else?"
"How did you know that Grandpa would ask me to persuade you?" When she and Leonardo returned to the Emerson's, although Charlie didn’t dislike her, but he wasn't enthusiastic towards her either.
After all, Charlie had a brilliant life. He had met all kinds of people. She was just a young girl. If not for the title of Leonardo's wife, Charlie wouldn't have paid any attention to her.
Leonardo's words confirmed Summer's thoughts.
"If he didn’t come to you, who else could he ask? His son?" Leonardo narrowed his eyes. His tone was so calm that it didn't seem like he was referring to his father, but an irrelevant person.
It seemed that this was indeed the case.
Leonardo had a bad relationship with Michael. Charlie knew about it. Compared to Michael, Summer was closer to Leonardo.
Charlie had no choice but to ask her for help.
Thinking of this, Summer had mixed feelings.
She sighed and said, "I see."
Leonardo laughed and reached out to stroke her hair, "Actually, I was not willing to return to the Emerson Group, but Grandpa was so sincere that he even asked help from you, so I had no choice but to agree."
In fact, returning to the Emerson Group at this juncture was both appropriate and inappropriate for Leonardo.
He had just found some clues about what he was investigating. If he returned to the Emerson Group, he would have to spend some effort and be more cautious when he investigated.
On the other hand, the Emerson Group was a family business. Almost all the Emersons worked for the Emerson Group.
If what had happened to his mother's was related to the Emersons, his return to the Emerson family would be an opportunity for him to investigate the Emersons more conveniently.
Summer would not have thought of these complicated factors for the time being.
Although she was willing to help Leonardo, she actually didn't know much about these things.
As Leonardo spoke, he put his arm on the back of the sofa behind Summer. They sat very close. Without any more intimate movements, the atmosphere between them was so harmonious as if no one could disturb them.
Being single, Carl felt jealous. "Enough. Don't be so affectionate. I'm annoyed! Let's go on and talk about the trending topic."
Ever since Jessica said those words, Carl has barely even met her.
Occasionally, when he saw Jessica in the company, she acted as if she didn't know him and left in a hurry.
