Predestined Marriage
Chapter 282 Bring You Back

Summer blurted her guess, "I think he wants the child."

Unexpectedly, Jessica disagreed immediately, "Impossible. If Leonardo only wants to have a child, would he beat his brain and do so much? Many women want to give him a child! I figure, he hasn't given up yet..."

Hearing this, Summer was silent.

After a while, Summer continued, "Jessica, the most important thing to me now is the child. What Leonardo has done makes my very worried."

She didn't and had no time to think about whether Leonardo had given up or not.

"Why don't you run away like before?"

After saying that, Jessica retorted herself, "You're about to give birth, where can you go..."

Summer listened to Jessica's words, but her thoughts had already drifted far away.

Everything seemed to have returned to its original state.

At first, when she thought that she had successfully escaped, Leonardo stopped looking for her.

Later, when she thought that she could give birth to this child peacefully, she discovered that she was surrounded by Leonardo's people.

She could not understand what Leonardo was thinking, much less what he was going to do.

After getting off the phone with Jessica, Summer still felt uneasy.

She went out to look for Douglas.

"Summer?" When Douglas opened the door and saw Summer, he hurriedly moved aside and let her in.

Summer walked in and sat down on the sofa directly.

Douglas closed the door and walked in. "Do you want some water?"

Summer looked up at him and said with a serious tone, "Call Leonardo."

"What?" Douglas was stunned for a moment, and then he began to play dumb. "What are you talking about... My cousin doesn't know I'm in Sydney, he..."

Although he was indeed instructed by Leonardo to come to Sydney, before coming here, Leonardo repeatedly warned him not to let Summer know that it was him who had sent him over. As a result, he let the cat out of the bag on his first day?

Although Douglas was crafty and clever, he was just a child in Summer's eyes after all.

Summer directly ignored Douglas' words and said in an irrefutable tone, "Call him. I have something to tell him."

This tone was actually somewhat similar to Leonardo's.

Douglas could only take out his phone and call Leonardo.

After dialing, he turned on the speaker and placed the phone in front of Summer.

Summer lowered her eyes and looked at the phone. The screen of the phone showed that it was dialing a number which was still familiar to her.

Her hands hanging by her side involuntarily clenched tightly, and her heart beat abnormally for an instant.

At this time, the phone was connected.

A familiar voice came out of the phone. "What's up?"

Leonardo's voice was low and deep, but when it came out of the phone, it became even colder.

Summer opened her mouth slightly but suddenly did not know what she was going to say.

This was the first time she had heard Leonardo's voice since she left Hoover City nearly half a year ago.

Douglas saw Summer kept silent for a long time and wanted to remind her, but only reached out and nudged her without saying a word when he saw how absent-minded Summer was. Only then did Summer regain her senses.

She pursed her lips and was about to speak when she heard Leonardo's voice again. "Summer."

His tone was calm and firm.

Before Summer could say anything, Douglas, who was next to her, became excited instead. "Cousin, are you omniscient? How did you know that it was Summer calling you?" Leonardo was silent on the other end of the phone.

Douglas rubbed his nose and said sensibly, "You guys talk. I'll go back to my room and sleep."

The room Summer had booked for him was a small suite, which was relatively spacious. There was a living room, a bedroom, and a dining room.

As Douglas walked into the room, he pricked up his ears and listened to what the two of them were saying, but he did not hear anything.

As soon as he left, the living room became even quieter.

Summer did not say anything, so Leonardo remained silent, as if he was waiting for her to speak.

After a while, Summer finally found her voice and said, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Leonardo did not directly respond to her questioning. Instead, he asked back, "Don't you know what I want to do?"

"I don't know!" Summer's voice was a little sharp. "I never knew."

Yes, she had never been able to guess what Leonardo wanted to do.

She could not fathom his thoughts.

Leonardo's tone was so calm that there was not a trace of fluctuation. "Then just rest assured for fetal stabilization."

Summer sneered. "Then what? You want to rob the child?"

Finally Leonardo got slightly disgruntled. "It was our child."

"Leonardo, let me tell you, don't even think about bringing the child back to the Emerson family!"

Summer understood that if Leonardo really wanted to snatch the child from her, she would not be able to win him.

However, she could not just watch Leonardo bring her child back to the Emerson family.

As Jerome had said, the Emersons were all ruthless and greedy.

The Emersons definitely had something to do with both what had happened to Mr. Charlie and Leonardo's mother.

Suddenly, Leonardo said in a deep voice, "Summer, do you trust me?"

Summer was slightly stunned. She did not expect that he would suddenly ask such a question.

Trust him?

However, Leonardo did not seem to really want Summer's answer. He just continued talking, "Take care of yourself. I will take care of everything and bring you back, both of you." His tone was no different from the way he cared about her before, which gave Summer the illusion that the two of them were not separated.

When she was stunned, Leonardo had already hung up the phone.

Summer looked at the darkened screen. She was somewhat confused about the situation.

Leonardo said he would take care of everything and bring the two of them back.

The two of them? Did he mean the baby and her?

Leonardo hung up the phone and stared blankly at his phone.

The assistant brought the coffee in. Seeing Leonardo like this, he whispered, "Boss, your coffee."

As expected, Leonardo ignored him.

The assistant sighed slightly and was about to leave when he heard Leonardo's voice from behind him, "Book me a ticket to Sydney." "Sydney?" The assistant was a little puzzled. He remembered the recent schedule very well. There wasn't any arrangement in Sydney. Just as the assistant was puzzled, he heard Leonardo say again, "Forget it."

The assistant had no choice but to close the door and go out. However, when he was closing the door, he could vaguely hear Leonardo's laughter.

It must be his illusion. He had never seen the boss smile since he joined the company a long time ago.

Leonardo opened his photo album, which was filled with photos of Summer.

With a gentle expression, he looked at the photos one by one. His finger gently slid across Summer's face on the photos, and a slight determination appeared between his eyebrows. 'I'll see you soon.'☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
