Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 38

Summer was unconvinced that Jessica used the adjective “handsome” to describe “Douglas”. She said, “It’s useless.”

Jessica shook her head, “I don’t believe that you weren’t fascinated by ‘Douglas’…”

Jessica stretched out her hand and made a gesture. She looked like a hooligan.

Was she fascinated by “Douglas”?

Women would be attracted by beautiful flowers, let alone a handsome man like “Douglas”.

“I haven’t met Leonardo yet. They are the Emersons. If he hadn’t been disfigured, he would be handsome.”

Summer felt sorry for her husband that she had never met.

“You haven’t met him! Are you a fake couple? You’ve been married to him for two to three months.” Jessica drank a glass of water to calm down.

Jessica recalled Douglas’s reaction and said, “I think that Douglas treats you differently. When he looked at me, his gaze was cold and fierce. He was much gentler to you.”

Did “Douglas” treat her gently?

Summer shook her head, “It’s your illusion.”

Just as Jessica was about to argue, her phone rang.

Her agent called her.

After hanging up the phone, she whimpered, “My agent had me go to the company for an emergency meeting again, in the middle of such a precious time to dine with you.”

Summer comforted her, “You have to go. After you shoot the film, I’ll treat you to a meal.”

….

Then Summer went back to the villa.

“Douglas” was in the living room.

He didn’t look well. He wore home clothes. There was a laptop in front of him and a glass of water beside him. He was at work.

Summer admired that he was stubborn and strong.

When he was shot, he asked her to take the bullet out. When he had a fever and fainted, he continued to work after being given an injection.

He felt that someone was looking at him. He looked up at Summer.

“Hi!” His voice was hoarse, but he was aggressive.

Summer glanced at the laptop and asked him from some distance, “Are you working? Are you alright?”

Apart from his pale face, he didn’t look like a patient.

“I’m fine,” he typed and looked at her, “I’m hungry.”

Thinking of his previous call, she said, “You....” She wanted to say that he could ask the bodyguards to cook for him.

“Douglas” knew what she was going to say and interrupted her, “It tastes terrible.”

He said vaguely, but she knew his meanings. He meant that the food the bodyguard cooked tasted terrible.

When Tim walked over with the medicine, he heard what Leonardo said.

Tim sneered.

Leonardo had never said that their food tasted terrible. Ever since he got married, he had become picky.

To tell the truth, apart from her ugly appearance, Tim didn’t know why Leonardo was interested in her.

However, Leonardo liked Summer. As Leonardo’s subordinates, Tim must respect Summer.

It was almost two o’clock in the afternoon.
