Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 201

Leonardo paused, and his expression also changed.

He put down his chopsticks and reached out for his phone, but Summer stopped him.

"You can go on and eat. Carl should have already settled it." Actually, Summer wasn't so sure whether it was settled or not.

Previously, she thought that Leonardo instructed Carl to do it, so she naturally believed that Leonardo would definitely fix it. Thus, she did not pay attention it anymore and focused on preparing the dinner.

However, Leonardo still pulled out his phone and called Carl.

Carl had been busy all day and had just fallen asleep. He was woken up by the phone. He didn't even see who it was from and asked loudly, "Who is it? Don’t you know it’s late?"

"It's me," Leonardo simply answered. Hearing his voice, Carl was completely awake.

Carl was silent for a moment and his tone softened a lot, "Leonardo, look at the time. If you don't need to sleep, you can investigate the matter of Adams becoming the trending topic. Summer is also involved. I have been working on this for the past few days and didn't even have time to have a good sleep."

Carl and Leonardo were close, so he wouldn't beat around the bush when it came to serious matters.

"I don't know what the person behind this wants, but he definitely knows about the relationship between Summer and you. Otherwise, he wouldn't involve Summer every time and make it more difficult for us to deal with it...."

Summer only noticed that Leonardo looked serious the whole time. She didn't hear what Carl said.

After Leonardo hung up the phone, they sat there silently for a long time.

"I saw Adams in the company today," Summer broke the silence.

Hearing this, Leonardo suddenly looked up at her, and he frowned unconsciously.

"Don't worry, I didn't say anything," Summer said with a faint smile, "And he didn't mention the trending either."

Leonardo stood up and said, "I'm full." Then he walked away.

Summer also stood up and followed up. She said loudly, "Leonardo, stop deceiving yourself. You have clearly found out that Adams is behind all this, but you don't want to believe it. So you have been lying to me, saying that you haven't found anything."

Summer had been holding these words in her heart for a long time.

Leonardo stopped and turned to look at Summer.

He did not deny it or admit it. Instead, he just said coldly, "I will take care of it."

There was no feeling in his eyes at all.

Summer trembled. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

Leonardo's eyes were so cold that Summer felt that he was very unfamiliar and distant at the moment.

Summer froze.

Perhaps, he had never opened his heart to her.

He had something on his mind that he didn't want to tell her. When she asked about it, he put on a cold face and seemed to be reprimanding her for meddling in other people's affairs...

That night, the two of them lay on the same bed, back to back. They didn't hug or talk.

...

There were still a lot of things to do in the company, and Summer was busy as always.

She didn't sleep well last night, so Summer made herself a cup of coffee in the pantry at lunch break.

It wasn't until the water in the cup overflowed that Summer came back to earth.

After taking a sip of coffee, she took out her phone and wanted to check on Weibo.

It was Friday. The blogger who said that he would announce Summer's identity did not make any move. It was probably because Carl took care of it the day before.

She clicked on the icon, but before she looked at the content, a phone call came in.

It was Carl.
