Predestined Marriage Chapter 256: Draw a Line

When Leonardo was carrying Summer downstairs, he met Adams.

Adams glanced at Summer and said with a thin smile, "You're in such a hurry. Where are you taking
her? Summer is a suspect."

Leonardo looked at Adams with a frosty expression. "Mind your own business."

Adams was offended by his icy attitude.

He didn't respond. Leonardo bypassed him and left.

Tim stopped the car at the gate. When he saw Leonardo walking towards him with Summer in his
arms, he went down and opened the door for him.

Leonardo got into the car and Tim sat at the driver's seat.

They returned to the villa and Leonardo carried Summer upstairs.

Ava walked out of the kitchen and greeted him, "Mr. Emerson, you are back."

Surprise flashed across his eyes. "Ava?"

On the New Year's Eve, Leonardo and Summer returned to the old mansion. The maids were on
holiday, including Ava.

She came closer to Leonardo, looked at Summer and asked worriedly, "What's going on? Is Mrs.
Emerson alright? I rushed back this morning when I saw what had happened in the newspapers."

Leonardo said, "She's fine."

He then walked upstairs.



But he stopped and turned to look at Ava. "Ava, please take good care of her."

Ava said, "Mr. Emerson, you are being too polite. It's my duty to take care of Mrs. Emerson."

He put Summer on the bed, turned on the heating and tucked her. He gazed fixedly at her by the bed
and left.

...

When Summer woke up, she had a pain in the neck.

"Mrs. Emerson, you are awake."

Ava?

Summer turned around and looked over. It was Ava.

"Ava? Why are you here?" As Summer spoke, she propped herself up to get out of the bed.

Ava reached out to help her, "Mr. Emerson sent you back. You're in his villa."

Hearing this, Summer looked around and realized that this wasn't the bedroom of the old mansion.

"Leonardo sent me back? Where's him?" Summer asked, grabbing her arm.

Ava answered, "He left. I don't know where he is."

Summer gritted her teeth and muttered, "Bastard!"

Back in the old mansion, she thought she could force Leonardo to tell the truth.

But he knocked her unconscious. Bastard!



This was really the way Leonardo always was.

Summer was even surer that he must be hiding something from her. He didn't suspect her.

Summer cursed Leonardo in a very low voice. Not hearing it clearly, Ava asked, "Excuse me. I didn't
catch you."

Summer shook her head. She asked with a smile, "Nothing. I'm just hungry. Is there anything I can
eat?"

"Of course. What do you want to eat? I can cook it for you."

Ava liked her and cared for her. When Summer got pregnant, Ava made delicious food for Summer
every day. Knowing Summer was hungry, Ava had her was diverted.

Ava went downstairs to cook and Summer got up and put on her coat.

She noticed the phone at the bedside table.

She walked over and picked it up. It was the phone she had used earlier.

Summer curled her lips. She knew it was Leonardo who had taken it away.

But she didn't know why.

She washed her face in the bathroom before going downstairs. Summer was in a daze, looking around
the familiar room.

She and Leonardo returned to the old mansion and stayed there for a few days. But when they came
back, she felt as if centuries had passed.

Ava made many dishes for her, including fried vegetables and soup.



When Summer was full, she took out her phone to call Leonardo.

She wanted to see Charlie.

She was worried about him.

But Summer hesitated again.

Leonardo's attitude towards her was strange. If she called him and said that she wanted to see Charlie,
he definitely wouldn't let her go.

Summer walked to the living room with the phone in her hand, her mind occupied.

Sudden noises brought her back to reality.

Someone was calling her name.

"Summer, I know you're inside!"

This voice was familiar. It was Vicky.

Summer walked out, her hands clenched. She saw Vicky and Karen, who were blocked by the
bodyguards. Spencer was also there.

Vicky caught sight of Summer, her lips curling into a sneer. "It's been a long time. You look a lot
thinner."

Summer said, raising her eyebrow, "Really? You look a lot fatter."

Karen interrupted their conversation by saying, "Summer, let us in."



There were many bodyguards and maids in the villa. Although Vicky hated her, she couldn't hurt
Summer.

Summer signaled the bodyguards to let them in.

In the living room. Summer sat down on the sofa and the rest sat on the opposite.

Summer's gaze swept across them and then she turned to look at Ava. "Ava, tea please."

Vicky came here to make fun of her. Spencer probably sent them over. As for Karen, Summer didn't
know why she was here.

Not giving Vicky an opportunity to speak, Summer said, "Did Adams tell you?"

She had just returned to the villa when Vicky visited her. It must have been Adams.

Vicky snorted coldly. "None of your business. How dared you hurt Charlie! Shame on you!"

Summer ignored her. She turned to look at Karen and said, "Why are you here?"

"Is the news report true? Why did you attack Charlie? The Emersons won't spare you." Karen looked
worried.

Summer said casually, "What if it's true?"

No matter what Karen said, Summer didn't care. In fact, she couldn't care less.

That way, she wouldn't feel sad.

Spencer, who was sitting at the side, persuaded her, "Summer, this is serious. You know the Emersons
are powerful and influential. We can't afford to offend them."



Summer's eyes flashed with mockery. "We? Sounds like we are in this together."

Spencer remained silent.

They didn't stay long.

Summer guessed they came here just to confirm the authenticity of news. If it was true, they could
draw a line and avoid getting themselves involved.
