Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 297

Tim sighed and asked, "Mr. Emerson, where are we going now?"

After a few seconds, Leonardo said, "Go to Summer's apartment."

Tim drove towards where Summer lived.

The car stopped at the apartment building where Summer lived. Before Leonardo got off the car, he said, "You can leave now. You don't need to drive me home."

"Yes." Tim replied.

As soon as Leonardo got out of the car, Tim drove away.

When the doorbell rang, Summer was washing her face.

She had cried too much in front of Michael today that her eyes were swollen.

She heard the sound and knew it was Leonardo.

She looked through the peephole before opening the door. It was indeed Leonardo.

She opened the door and looked around before letting him in.

"Come in." Summer turned around and walked inside.

Leonardo followed behind her and sat down on the sofa.

"What do you want to drink? Water?" Summer said as she took a cup from the table and poured water for him.

When she handed the cup to Leonardo, he grabbed her hand.

Summer pursed her lips and did not break free.

Leonardo pulled her to sit beside him. He wrapped her hand with his and asked, "What did he say to you?"

"He told me about our daughter. He said that he would ask you." Summer paused and looked up at Leonardo, "You allowed me to move out without hesitation because you knew he would come to me. Right?"

Leonardo did not reply, but put her hand close to his lips and kissed it.

It was a light kiss. She felt a little itchy with his breath on her hand.

Summer kicked him, "Answer my question!"

"Oh." Leonardo replied carelessly but remained silent.

Summer could only continue to ask, "After Mr. Charlie fell down stairs, they did not frame me to harm me. Instead, they were trying to see how much you care about me. So you pretended to be suspicious of me in front of them, right?"

Leonardo still didn't say anything, but his silence meant a yes.

Summer continued to analyze in a clear and orderly manner, "Before the accident, Mr. Charlie asked us to see him. He was a little strange at that time. My guess is Mr. Charlie might have discovered something or wanted to do something. And your father found out about his plan. He didn't want to kill Mr. Charlie, so he pushed Mr. Charlie down the stairs and blamed it on me, killing two birds with one stone."

"The point is what is your father trying to hide? Is it the truth about the kidnapping of your mother?"

The more Summer thought about it, the more frightened she felt.

What exactly did Michael do? Why was he so desperate to hide it?

Leonardo put on a serious face when he saw Summer frowned and pondered.

He let go of her hand and put his hands on her shoulders. He said in a deep voice, "Summer, look at me."

"What?" Summer turned to look at him.

Leonardo stared fixedly at her. His dark eyes concealed too many emotions. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.

"You don't know anything now. What happened to my grandpa was just an accident. And I took Rosie away because I want the custody. That's all you know. Understand?"

Leonardo gripped her shoulder so hard that Summer felt a little pain. But she didn't complain and just asked, "Why?"
