Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 585

"You can't play with water." Summer pulled Rosie's hands back. She twisted the towel and wiped Rosie's face after turning off the tap.

Rosie raised her head and behaved herself.

Summer went gently as she asked, "Will it hurt?"

"No," Rosie replied, "Mom, I have a question for you."

"What is it?" Summer discovered that Rosie's ability of expression had improved by leaps and bounds.

"Did Leonoodle make you sad?" Despite it was said in a child's tone, Rosie was serious.

Summer paused. She looked down at Rosie, only to find that she was blinking at her, waiting for her reply.

Summer continued, "Do you know what sadness means?"

"Of course, I know." Rosie stated.

Summer put the towel back and took the baby cream bottle. "Then tell me, what does it feel like to be sad?"

Rosie tilted her head and thought for a while, "I just want to cry."

Summer laughed out and covered the lid of cream. But she had to agree it after pondering for a second.

It turned out that a three-year-old child had known so much.

Summer applied cream for her and tidied up Rosie's bangs. She whispered, "Dad didn't mean to make you sad. He's clumsy and doesn't know how to cheer you up."

Rosie crossed her arms and gave a suspicious snort.

Summer knew Leonardo cared about Rosie, but sometimes he was a bit paranoid. Stanley thought him cold and heartless, but if he was, what was the point of everything he had done for her?

"Alright, don't be mad at him. After all, he's a stupid guy. And Rosie is a smart girl. A smart girl should not be too particular about the mistake made by a stupid guy, right?"

Summer stooped down to meet Rosie's gaze. She leaned over and rested her forehead against Rosie's.

Rosie pulled back and refused to play this intimate game. She nodded with difficulty, "Alright."

"Rosie is such a clever girl. You must be the best in the world." Summer had never been stingy with her compliments.

Rosie immediately learned by analogy, "Dad and I, who is better?"

Summer was dumbfounded before she responded, "You, of course."

Rosie grinned.

Little devil!

Summer pinched her cheeks, carried her back to the bedroom, and dropped her on the bed.

She turned to see the calendar.

It had been almost ten days since she arrived at Stanley's villa, but she didn't hear a word from Leonardo.

At the very beginning, she was calm, but she couldn't help but think nonsense as time went by.

Stanley's words somehow held water.

According to Leonardo's capacity, it was impossible for him to fail to find Rosie's whereabouts.
