Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 45

Summer looked up at Douglas in surprise, “You bought it?”

“Nice try. Cousin bought it for you.” Leonardo glanced at her and began to eat.

Summer didn’t say anything. He made it sound like she really wanted something from him.

Since Leonardo had bought it, she would accept it.

Summer noticed that there was an SIM card next to her phone. It was the number she had used.

She put it in and called Jessica.

After only one beep, the call was answered.

Jessica sounded extremely worried, “Summer, are you alright? Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. Are you back with the cast now?” Jessica had mentioned about going back today.

“With what have happened to you? No way! I’m going out now. Let’s meet.” The rustling sound of packing could be heard from Jessica’s side.

Summer also wanted to talk to Jessica about last night, so she quickly agreed, “Okay. I’m eating. I’ll go out in a minute...”

“No need. I’m coming for you,” Jessica interrupted her and hung up the phone.

Summer put down her phone and looked up. The man was eating slowly.

He always acted arrogantly and naughtily around her, but in fact, he was calm and cautious.

“What happened last night...” Summer paused for a moment before saying, “Thank you.”

“For what?” Leonardo looked up at her, his pitch-black eyes flickering with an imperceptible smile, “Thank me for pushing you away at the critical moment?”

Summer understood what he was saying, and blushed, “Can you speak properly?”

As for the last bit of gratitude she had had for him, it disappeared without a trace.

Leonardo finished his porridge. As he took the towel to wipe his hands, he said, “You thanked me too casually. You don’t have any sincerity.”

Summer thought for a while and felt that he was right. “What about I treat you to dinner?”

“Dinner? Okay. Let’s go to the club I brought you to last time,” Leonardo sounded serious.

That club...

Summer pursed her lips. If she remembered correctly, it was a top tier club in Hoover City. She had just graduated, not to mention having no job now, and even if she had a job, it would cost her at least half a year’s salary to eat a meal there according to the standard of young and rich “Douglas”.

She suspected that Douglas did it on purpose.

Summer said straightforwardly, “That won’t do. I can’t afford it.”

“Douglas” looked at her in surprise, “Didn’t Cousin give you his secondary card?”

“Why would he give me that?” Summer felt that “Douglas” was weird in every way.

In the next moment, “Douglas” took out a black card from behind him and threw it in front of her. “Cousin gave it to me. You can take it.”

Summer did not take the black card. Instead, she said with an envious expression, “Leonardo treats you so well.”

Leonardo had never appeared in front of outsiders. Rumors had it that he was cruel and obstinate, but he let “Douglas” live in his villa and even gave his secondary card to him.

On the other hand, Summer and Vicky were like enemies.

Hearing that, Leonardo looked at her seriously and said, “If you are willing to try, he might treat you better than me.”

He deliberately emphasized the word “try”.

An arrogant and shameless man!

Summer ignored him and lowered her head to eat before taking that card.
