Before Summer could say anything, Charlie said, "Now that you are pregnant, you need care and protection. There are few maids in the villa, so I bring a new batch of maids to take care of you."
Summer looked over and found that there were more than ten maids.
However, she thought it was too much for Leonardo and her.
Besides, she would feel uncomfortable if many people lived in the villa.
She didn't know how to refuse Charlie's offer.
"Thank you for your care, grandpa. But the doctor said that I am in good health now...."
"Even so, you still need to be taken good care of. In the past, when Leonardo's grandma gave birth to Michael, she suffered a lot due to the bad medical conditions...."
Charlie paused for a moment and said, "Forget it. Anyway, if you need anything, just tell Leonardo. If he doesn't get it for you, you can call me. Do you have my number? Or can I have your WeChat...?"
As he spoke, he took out his phone and opened WeChat.
Summer was amused and thought that Charlie was cute.
She took out her phone with a smile and said, "Let me scan your QR code."
"OK. Click here, right?" Charlie leaned over and showed Summer his QR code.
When Leonardo entered, what he saw was that Charlie was adding Summer on WeChat.
He glanced at them and sat down on the sofa.
Charlie saw him and said grumpily, "Take good care of Summer."
Leonardo looked up and said, "You're telling me."
Charlie snorted, "If it weren't for Summer, do you think I would have come here?"
Leonardo crossed his legs and said, "You already saw us, so you can leave now."
Charlie pointed at Leonardo's nose and scolded, "Are you trying to aggravate me?"
But there wasn't much anger in his eyes.
Charlie didn't stay any longer. He talked to Summer for a while and left in the dark.
Those maids didn't leave with him.
Summer sat on the sofa and looked at them. She found that the maids all looked pretty.
When rich people hired maids, they would even choose beautiful ones.
Some of the maids were peeking at Leonardo.
Summer suddenly got a headache and rubbed her temples. She looked at Leonardo and said, "You deal with it. I'm going to sleep."
After she left, Leonardo said indifferently, "Ava will tell you what you should do. You can't go to the second floor without permission. Do your jobs well, or I'll send you back to where you came from. Do you understand?"
His voice was deep and charming, but it was so cold. The maids, who had been peeking at him, all looked down and dared not to peek at him again.
They answered in unison, "Yes, sir!"
When Leonardo returned to the room, Summer had already fallen asleep.
A lot of things had happened today, and she had been drowsy these days. Therefore, it was easy for her to fall asleep.
As Leonardo bent down to kiss her, he could smell her fascinating fragrance.
He lay on the bed and gently pulled Summer into his arms.
Summer wasn't in deep sleep, so she was woken up by Leonardo's action.
This silenced Karen.
After a few seconds, she said in a low voice, "Aren't you alright now? Vicky...."
"This is not the first time. Don't call me again, and don't come to me. It's useless," Summer said coldly and hung up the phone.
She wasn't surprised that Karen would call her to help Vicky.
She didn't dare to imagine that if Vicky had really hit her that day....
She touched her flat belly, where a little life was growing inside.
She didn't think it was the best time to get pregnant. But since she was, she would give birth to the baby.
After hanging up the phone, Karen looked at Lynn and said in embarrassment, "Summer...."
"What did she say?" Lynn had not slept well for several days because of Vicky's case. His face was haggard and his voice was hoarse.
"She ... She told me not to call her again. She won't help us."
Hearing this, Lynn's expression suddenly changed.
He raised his hand and slapped Karen on the face.
He was a strong man, and now he was angry. Hence, he slapped Karen with great strength that Karen staggered and fell to the ground.
She even got a taste of blood in her mouth.
She touched her mouth and then found there was blood on her hand.
One side of her face was painful and numb, and her ears were buzzing.
Lynn glared at her, "You're so useless. You can't even help me with such a small matter. You really have a good daughter. She actually wants to send Vicky to prison!"
