"Hey, are you going to sleep or not?" Mr. Brightwood sighed deeply, feeling a bit impatient as he turned over. "What exactly are you worrying about?"
"That man is suspicious." Mrs. Brightwood suddenly froze, speaking with certainty. "That man must like our Summer! He will definitely try to steal her from Rupert!"
With that, Mrs. Brightwood sat up and reached for her phone.
Mr. Brightwood glanced at her, seeing the phone screen light up as she started dialing. He guessed she was calling their son but didn't stop her, only sighed heavily. "Ah!" After all, if this issue wasn't resolved, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep.
"Hello, son, what are you up to?" The woman asked with a smile, showing concern.
"Not much, Mom. It's already quite late there, isn't it? Why aren't you asleep?" Rupert Brightwood's voice was gentle, full of concern for his parents. "You didn't have another argument with Dad, did you? Calling in the middle of the night."
"No, I just wanted to ask when you're coming back. Can you come back earlier?" She felt uneasy.
"What's wrong?" As a son, he could hear the unease in her voice.
"Even if you need to go out, come back first to settle the house and arrange the wedding. Take Summer with you when you leave."
"What happened?" he asked. "What's going on?"
"I saw something strange today. I was planning to take Summer house hunting and noticed she has a male neighbor who was having dinner at her place and even brought her peaches. Their relationship seems unusual."
Rupert Brightwood fell silent, lost in thought.
