Hearing this, Summer looked around the room.
She noticed that there was only one bed and asked, "What do you mean?"
There was only one bed in the room. Did he want her to sleep on the sofa rather than the bed?
Leonardo did not say anything but asked the waiter to give him one more quilt. Then he held the quilt
and placed it on the sofa.
After that, he went to the bathroom to take a bath without looking at Summer's face.
Summer was confused and watched him enter the bathroom. After a while, she realized that Leonardo
was going to sleep on the sofa.
When they were in the countryside, they had been sleeping together. But now he wanted to sleep
alone?
Summer pulled a wry face.
Not long after, Leonardo finished bathing and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel.
Summer did not speak to him but stood up and walked into the bathroom.
Halfway through the bath, she heard a knock on the door.
She listened carefully and heard Leonardo open the door.
After bath, she went out and saw Leonardo in pajamas sitting at the table with a laptop.
The room was not big. She turned around and saw a set of women's pajamas neatly placed on the
bed.
From the color, she could tell that their pajamas were especially for lovers.
Leonardo's voice suddenly sounded, "Tim bought that."
Summer turned around and found Leonardo was still in the same position as before. He stared at the
laptop screen and was busy tapping on the laptop.
If she and Leonardo weren't the only people here, she would have thought that Leonardo was talking to
someone else.
"Thank you."
Summer picked up her pajamas and went back into the bathroom.
After she came out, she called Jessica.
In fact, she had called Jessica when arriving at the county, but she didn't get through. So she called
again to see if she could reach Jessica now.
After Summer dialed, she waited for two seconds and heard a "beep".
The phone was actually put through!
It rang several times before Jessica picked it up.
Jessica said excitedly, "Summer? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. What about you?" Summer went to bed as she spoke.
She leaned against the bed and briefly told Jessica what had happened these days.
Jessica was in the village, where had no space for the helicopter. Therefore, she could not leave there
for the time being.
Moreover, the road into the village was so badly damaged that it would take a long time to repair it.
Luckily, Jessica was fine.
Summer felt relieved.
Though Jessica couldn't come back for the time being, Carl was there to take care of her. So Summer
wasn't worried and decided not to stay here to wait for Jessica.
"See you in the Hoover City."
"OK. See you then."
Summer hung up the phone and looked at Leonardo, only to discover that he was still sitting in front of
the laptop.
Summer saw his serious expression and guessed he was probably working. Even if he was in
pajamas, he still looked awesome.
Summer raised her voice and said, "Leonardo, I'm going to sleep."
Leonardo gave her a glance and said coldly, "The light switch is beside the bedside. Do you want me to
turn off the light for you?"
Summer took a deep breath and said quickly, "No, I'll do it myself."
She reached out to turn off the light and lay on the bed.
The room was instantly plunged into darkness. Only the computer in front of Leonardo gave off a faint
blue light.
Summer squinted to adjust her vision to the darkness and then fixed her eyes on Leonardo.
In fact, she wanted to persuade him to rest just now. There was always work to be done, but he could
deal with them after he came back.
However, she dumped this idea after hearing Leonardo's speech.
She tossed and turned, gradually falling asleep.
When she woke up, it was already early the next morning.
She opened her eyes and saw Leonardo lying on the sofa.
The sofa in the hotel room was smaller than the one at the presidential suite that Leonardo usually
lived in. Now he seemed to feel uncomfortable for sleeping on the sofa, with one hand on the back of
his head and the other on his chest.
More than half of the quilt fell to the ground.
Summer got out of bed and walked over to pick up the quilt.
Just as she covered Leonardo with the quilt, he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed her hand
vigilantly.
They started at each other for a moment. After recognizing Summer, Leonardo let go of her hand.
Summer withdrew her hand and said, "The quilt fell to the ground."
Leonardo sat up, glanced at the quilt, and then put it away. Then he got off the sofa and went straight
to the bathroom.
Summer took a deep breath, but she still felt bad.
Weren't they good when they were at Arthur's house?
She could clearly feel that Leonardo had become much closer to her during that time.
But she didn't expect him to be capricious and give her a cold shoulder as soon as they left.
After breakfast, they set off for the nearby city to take the flight to the Hoover City.
At the airport, they met Stanley and his bodyguards.
Stanley said something to the bodyguards behind him before walking towards Summer, "Summer, what
a coincidence! What time is your flight?"
Summer said, "1 p.m."
Actually, it wasn't a coincidence, for here was the closest city to the county which had flights to Hoover
City.
If they wanted to go back, they have to come here to take plane.
Moreover, this airport was so small that it was normal to meet acquaintances.
Stanley smiled, "Mine is two o'clock."
"Mrs. Emerson."
Tim suddenly walked over and said, "We're going to the lounge now."
Summer nodded at him and then turned to talk to Stanley, "I have to go now. See you then."
Stanley smiled at her and watched her walk away.
Tim followed Summer and asked after a moment of hesitation, "Mrs. Emerson, how did you know Mr.
Stanley?"
Summer paused and looked at Tim.
Tim nodded and said respectfully, "Mrs. Emerson, don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything. It's just I
suddenly remember that Mr. Stanley had been on the news with you before you and Mr. Emerson went
to the island. This made my curious about your relationship."
Knowing that Tim meant well, Summer thought for a moment and said, "I don't know when I first saw
him. But three years ago, when I woke up, he was by my side, and I could tell from his tone that he
knew me."
Tim nodded and said, "I have something to tell you, but I don't know if I should say it."
Summer smiled, "Say it if you like."
"Mrs. Emerson, since you know nothing about his background, you'd better be careful." Tim's tone was
gentle.
He was different from Leonardo. Leonardo showed his hatred for Stanley explicitly, while Tim did that
implicitly. He knew Summer was grateful to Stanley, as he had saved her.
Just because of this complicated relationship, Tim was gentler when he tried to persuade Summer to
be wary of Stanley.
Summer nodded at him and then turned to talk to Stanley, "| have to go now. See you then."
Stanley smiled at her and watched her walk away.
Tim followed Summer and asked after a moment of hesitation, "Mrs. Emerson, how did you know Mr.
Stanley?"
Summer paused and looked at Tim.
Tim nodded and said respectfully, "Mrs. Emerson, don't get me wrong. | don't mean anything. It's just |
suddenly remember that Mr. Stanley had been on the news with you before you and Mr. Emerson went

Tim nodded and said, "| have something to tell you, but | don't know if | should say it."
Summer smiled, "Say it if you like."
"Mrs. Emerson, since you know nothing about his background, you'd better be careful." Tim's tone was
gentle.
He was different from Leonardo. Leonardo showed his hatred for Stanley explicitly, while Tim did that
implicitly. He knew Summer was grateful to Stanley, as he had saved her.
Just because of this complicated relationship, Tim was gentler when he tried to persuade Summer to
be wary of Stanley.
