Predestined Marriage

Adams was silent for a moment before telling the truth, "I met her once by chance."

Leonardo’s tone became colder. "She is Summer."

"I know, she's your wife Summer." Adams’s voice suddenly became a little ethereal.

Leonardo frowned and hesitated. But words failed him. He hung up without saying anything.

Early the next morning.

Summer cooked breakfast when she got up. Seeing “Douglas” coming downstairs, she recalled what had happened yesterday.

While serving the breakfast, she peeked at him.

Leonardo was initially on his phone. He drank water from his cup and asked, "What are you looking at me for?"

Summer raised her eyebrows and said provocatively, "You look pale. Should I make special dishes that can nourish your body?"

Leonardo stopped drinking and looked up. He put on a faint smile and said, "You're the only woman around me. What do you want me to do when my body is 'nourished'?"

Summer glared at him and walked into the kitchen.

She always failed when she attempted to tease him.

They parted rather unhappily.

Tim drove Summer to the company as usual.

Summer couldn’t refrain herself and asked on their way to the Jarrett Group, "Is he always like this? Doesn’t he meet up with anyone?"

He thought of the past when Leonardo went about and met loads of people and lied, "Always."

"Has he seen a doctor?" Summer asked. But realizing the question was misleading, she explained, "I mean, he can’t be like this forever. He has to live a normal life."

Leonardo, the person they were talking about, called at this moment.
