Predestined Marriage

Leonardo did not say anything. He looked down slightly and landed his gaze on Summer's hand that was holding Stanley's arm.

Stanley looked up faintly. He smiled so gently and didn't show the slightest bit of offense. He said in a calm voice, "Mr. Emerson." His gentle tone seemed to have revealed other feelings.

Leonardo turned up the corners of his lips coldly. He landed his gaze on Summer again.

To be frank, Summer was still a little afraid of Leonardo, especially now. However, she knew that life was always a struggle.

So, she tightened her grip on Stanley's arm again, pulling him closer to her.

Amber, who had been sitting beside Leonardo without saying a word, suddenly stood up and walked beside Leonardo. She smiled and said, "I didn't expect Leonardo to invite you. If I had known earlier, I would have greeted you so that you can save the trouble of coming to us."

The 30-year-old Amber looked no different from the person Summer remembered three years ago.

It was the first time in three years that Summer had spoken to Amber face-to-face. As Kate's friend, Amber got to know something. Summer had to give in to her. Amber purposely said that Leonardo invited Summer.

Just now, Leonardo pretended that he did not know Summer at all. In a word, Amber was trying to tell everyone that Summer had come uninvited. Moreover, she spoke as if she had taken half a step into the Emerson family.

After all, Amber came from a wealthy and noble family, so she behaved more maturely and cautiously.

She succeeded in embarrassing Summer in only a few words.

Before Summer could say anything, Stanley chuckled and said, "Miss, Mr. Emerson has invited me to this party. I was afraid that Summer would be bored by being alone, so I brought her over."

Just now, Amber did not pay much attention to Stanley. After all, other than Leonardo, she never cared about any other man. Only when Stanley spoke did she turn to glance at him.
