Summer nodded to Stanley.
He glanced at Leonardo deeply before leaving.
After he went away, Tim left with his bodyguards.
Summer regained her senses and realized she and Leonardo were alone in the room.
He leaned against the sofa and looked at her with an unfathomable expression, his dark eyes fixed at her unblinkingly. He was so domineering that Summer was very uncomfortable.
She folded her arms and said tentatively, "Mr. Emerson."
Leonardo pointed at the DNA report that he had previously shown to Kate and said coolly, "Take a look for yourself."
Fortunately, Summer was sitting opposite to Leonardo.
Having heard their conversation, Summer had a rough idea of what was going on.
However, when she saw the report, she was still surprised.
She was indeed Rosie's biological mother.
She looked up at Leonardo.
They had a child.
How could it be?
Gazing at her, Leonardo asked, "Do you understand now?"
Summer nodded. She asked, "Was the previous DNA report tampered with by Kate?"
Leonardo did not answer her question. But he raised his eyebrows to show his attitude.
He stared at Summer and demanded, "You have three days."
He suddenly paused before continuing, "No, half an hour. Cut your ties with Stanley."
Leonardo did not know Summer and Stanley had already made public that they didn't engage. Stanley admitted he was not Summer's fiancé́.
"What do you mean?"
She knew every word that Leonardo was saying, but she didn't understand what he meant.
Leonardo tilted his jaw, being somewhat disappointed with her reaction. He explained impatiently, "You are Rosie's mother. She likes you very much. You should live with us."
It made perfect sense. But his condescension discomforted Summer.
"Why? Thanks to Kate, we are no longer husband and wife. There is no need for us to live together. Even if we didn't divorce, we shouldn't live together given the current situation."
Her reply caught Leonardo off guard.
There was a glint of anger in his eyes. But he said in composure, "I agree what you've said, Ms. Summer. I believe you are aware you may never see Rosie again if you refuse me."
Summer stood up and shouted, "Leonardo!"
He was always unreasonable and domineering.
He didn't make any compromise.
