When Leonardo was carrying Summer downstairs, he met Adams.
Adams glanced at Summer and said with a thin smile, "You're in such a hurry. Where are you taking her? Summer is a suspect."
Leonardo looked at Adams with a frosty expression. "Mind your own business."
Adams was offended by his icy attitude.
He didn't respond. Leonardo bypassed him and left.
Tim stopped the car at the gate. When he saw Leonardo walking towards him with Summer in his arms, he went down and opened the door for him.
Leonardo got into the car and Tim sat at the driver's seat.
They returned to the villa and Leonardo carried Summer upstairs.
Ava walked out of the kitchen and greeted him, "Mr. Emerson, you are back."
Surprise flashed across his eyes. "Ava?"
On the New Year's Eve, Leonardo and Summer returned to the old mansion. The maids were on holiday, including Ava.
She came closer to Leonardo, looked at Summer and asked worriedly, "What's going on? Is Mrs. Emerson alright? I rushed back this morning when I saw what had happened in the newspapers."
Leonardo said, "She's fine."
He then walked upstairs.
But he stopped and turned to look at Ava. "Ava, please take good care of her."
Ava said, "Mr. Emerson, you are being too polite. It's my duty to take care of Mrs. Emerson."
He put Summer on the bed, turned on the heating and tucked her. He gazed fixedly at her by the bed and left.
...
When Summer woke up, she had a pain in the neck.
"Mrs. Emerson, you are awake."
Ava?
Summer turned around and looked over. It was Ava.
"Ava? Why are you here?" As Summer spoke, she propped herself up to get out of the bed.
Ava reached out to help her, "Mr. Emerson sent you back. You're in his villa."
Hearing this, Summer looked around and realized that this wasn't the bedroom of the old mansion.
"Leonardo sent me back? Where's him?" Summer asked, grabbing her arm.
Ava answered, "He left. I don't know where he is."
Summer gritted her teeth and muttered, "Bastard!"
Back in the old mansion, she thought she could force Leonardo to tell the truth.
But he knocked her unconscious. Bastard!
This was really the way Leonardo always was.
Summer was even surer that he must be hiding something from her. He didn't suspect her.
Summer cursed Leonardo in a very low voice. Not hearing it clearly, Ava asked, "Excuse me. I didn't catch you."
Summer shook her head. She asked with a smile, "Nothing. I'm just hungry. Is there anything I can eat?"
"Of course. What do you want to eat? I can cook it for you."
Ava liked her and cared for her. When Summer got pregnant, Ava made delicious food for Summer every day. Knowing Summer was hungry, Ava had her was diverted.
Ava went downstairs to cook and Summer got up and put on her coat.
She noticed the phone at the bedside table.
