Michael and Violet were siblings. Judging from their behaviors in the past two days, they got along pretty well.
If they were just walking and chatting together, it wouldn't be a big deal.
However, they had vigilant expressions as if they were afraid of being discovered by others. They looked extremely suspicious and sneaky.
Summer pursed her lips and followed them.
Because it was New Year's Eve, there were fewer servants in the old house than usual. They had just finished their New Year's Eve dinner, and now those servants were also having their New Year's Eve dinner.
As a result, Summer followed them all the way and almost didn't encounter any servants.
Along the way, she followed Michael and Violet and saw Michael bring Violet to his own room.
When he closed the door, Michael even looked around for a while.
Summer dodged to a corner with great vigilance.
When she came out again, the door was already closed.
Summer walked to Michael's door and carefully listened to what they were saying.
She felt that they must have some sort of secret.
Violet was Adams’ mother. Adams had suddenly turned against Leonardo in the past two months, and Leonardo was obviously not close to Violet.
Previously, Leonardo got along pretty well with Adams and Douglas. Naturally, his relationship with Violet was not bad either. He would not keep a distance from Violet for no reason.
Even if Adams had turned against him, it was impossible for him to treat Violet coldly because of Adams.
It could be seen from his relationship with Douglas. He did not treat Douglas coldly because of his grudge with Adams.
So, there must be something wrong with Violet.
After thinking so much, Summer felt that a wealthy family was really troublesome.
They had so many secrets.
The room was soundproof and Summer could not hear anything at all.
Since she couldn't hear anything, Summer could only turn around and leave.
Not long after she left, she heard the sound of the door opening behind her.
Summer was afraid of being discovered by them and ran away.
She ran to the corner and gasped for a moment before looking over. She found that Michael and Violet had already left from the other side.
Only then did Summer let out a sigh of relief and go to the bathroom in her room and then back to the dining room.
When she reached the door of the dining room, she met Leonardo who was in a hurry.
As soon as Leonardo saw her, he stopped and frowned. "What took you so long?"
Summer pursed her lips. She felt that what had happened just now was not enough to prove anything but that Michael and Violet might have some secrets.
But anybody could have secrets.
Therefore, she did not tell Leonardo and said unwillingly, "Constipation."
Leonardo raised his eyebrows, touched her head, and held her hand.
When Summer entered there, she discovered that Michael was already in the dining room.
Michael seemed to feel Summer's gaze, and he turned around to look at her and smiled.
Because of what happened just now, when Summer saw Michael's smile, she felt that it was a little strange.
However, she did not show it on her face and only smiled at Michael.
After a while, Violet also came in.
Summer and Leonardo sat next to Charlie, and Violet sat down on the other side of Charlie.
Violet asked gently, "How long have you been pregnant? It can't be seen that you are pregnant."
"Less than two months." Summer involuntarily touched her belly.
Leonardo turned to look at her, his eyes being gentle.
Violet looked at them for a while and smiled.
The smile looked gentle and kind.
Summer suddenly felt puzzled. A woman like Violet was so soft and weak. The two children she brought up were completely different from her.
No, it was just that Douglas was very different from her.
Adams had always been gentle. No one expected him to do such a despicable thing.
Could it be possible that Adams becoming such an inconsistent person had something to do with his family?
If that was the case, was Violet also pretending to be weak and gentle?
"Summer? What's wrong with you?"
