Predestined Marriage

Summer got out of the car and returned to the villa.

On her way to the villa, Summer kept looking back at the door.

Until she couldn't see Leonardo's car, Summer squatted down and sneaked into the room where the basement was.

After entering the room, she closed the door and went down into the basement.

The basement was brightly lit with bodyguards in it.

When a bodyguard saw Summer, he sounded puzzled, "Mrs. Emerson?"

For so many days, this was the first time they had seen Summer come down for Vicky.

Summer stopped and looked inside. She could only vaguely see Vicky's figure. So, she raised her head and asked the bodyguard, "She still hasn't said anything?"

Summer didn't know what Leonardo and the others had asked Vicky. But this ambiguous question was enough to convince the bodyguards that she knew what they were doing.

These bodyguards knew Leonardo treated Summer very well. When Summer asked like that, they thought that Leonardo had told her everything.

One of the bodyguards said, "No. She's tough."

Summer did not ask any further. She was afraid that she would expose herself.

"I'll go see her."

Summer walked inside and saw Vicky sitting in a chair with chains on her feet.

Vicky had been locked up in the dark basement for over a week. She looked pale and haggard. Her clothes were dirty, but she did not seem to get hurt.

Vicky heard footsteps and raised her head idly. When she saw Summer, her eyes glittered with malice. "Summer?"
