Predestined Marriage Chapter 506 Man with Secrets

Summer turned her head away and denied, "He wasn't looking for me."

Jessica said with contempt, "If it wasn't you, then who else? Me?"

"Perhaps," Summer said indifferently.

Jessica was speechless.

Leonardo glanced in Summer's direction before continuing to push Michael forward. After giving a few
instructions to Tim, he sat down.

Tim gave the opening remarks and then announced the start of the party. After he finished speaking, he
noticed Summer.

So, he turned around and whispered to Leonardo, "Mr. Emerson, Mrs. Emerson is also here."

"So what? It's none of my business." Leonardo took a glass of champagne and lowered his head, his
tone extremely indifferent.

A voice sounded in Tim's head, "Men never say what they mean when they are jealous."

Suddenly, a commotion came from the other side of the hall.

Although it wasn't as big as when Leonardo had just arrived, it couldn't be ignored.

"Who is it?"

"I heard it's Mr. Emerson fiancée!"

"Although there has always been news about this, Mr. Emerson has never confirmed it. They haven't
held an engagement banquet."



"How could it be fake? It is said that they even have a daughter..."

"Who said that? Really?"

Summer tilted her head and listened to the few women chatting beside her.

When she heard what they were talking about, she sneered.

Jessica did not notice what those women just said. Seeing that Summer was not herself, she asked,
"What's wrong?"

"Amber is here." Summer put aside the champagne in hand and adjusted her dress, saying, "I'll go fix
my makeup."

"Together?"

"No, it's alright."

Summer got up and went to the bathroom alone.

She stood in front of the mirror and carefully freshened up. After making sure that her face was perfect,
she took her bag and walked out of the bathroom.

However, she didn't expect that she would meet Stanley the moment she stepped out.

"Summer?"

Stanley saw her first, so he naturally stopped her.

Summer turned around and paused for a moment before saying, "Just arrived?"



"Yeah. I didn't see you in the banquet hall just now. I thought you weren't here." Stanley quickly stepped
forward and went to catch up with Summer. Then, he paced with her and walked slowly.

"I just went to the bathroom."

They walked side by side to the banquet hall. When they returned to the hall, they found the place was
even more crowded. The guests gathered in groups and whispered to each other.

However, the most crowded place was still that around Leonardo. He was surrounded by people, and
Michael was sitting beside him.

Michael was still sitting in a wheelchair. He pursed his lips tightly and did not say anything. His
expression was cold and solemn. Anyone who came would only greet him with a simple "Mr. Michael"
before going to talk to Leonardo.

Stanley followed Summer's gaze and chuckled softly. He seemed to be disdainful about what he saw,
and said with mockery, "People all weigh the pros and cons. They'll only make friends with the one who
can bring them benefits."

In the past, when Michael was in charge of the family business, these people all wanted to befriend
him. Now that Leonardo was the CEO of the Emerson Group, they naturally turned to make friends with
him, instead of Michael. They had long forgotten how they talked about Leonardo, the surviving victim,
after the kidnapping.

Humans are soft, yet they are also cruel.

"It sounds that you have seen through all this." Summer turned her head to look at Stanley. She asked
curiously, "Moreover, you seem to know the Emersons very well."



For a moment, the smile was frozen on Stanley's face, but he quickly returned to normal and replied,
"Is that so?"

Summer fixed her eyes on him for a few seconds before asking, "Is what you have told me before all
true? You said I saved you, but I don't remember any of it."

Although Summer subconsciously trusted Stanley, she was still suspicious that Stanley would be able
to find her and Leonardo in the mountains in such a short time.

Stanley did not answer her question directly. Instead, he turned the question back to her, "Are you
suspecting me?"

Summer reached out and took a glass of juice from the waiter's tray. She took a sip before saying, "You
were able to locate me and Leonardo so quickly, which means that you've been watching me through
somebody. Even if you're trying to return my favor, or doing it for the sake of my safety, don't you think
it's a bit too much?"

Summer turned her head to look at Stanley, her bright eyes sharp. She would not trust Stanley blindly.

Just as Tim had said, nothing was known about this man. Summer was aware that Stanley had helped
her, but she also knew that he was a man with secrets. She could tell the difference.

Stanley smiled faintly. Though caught by Summer, he was not embarrassed at all. He replied, "If you
don't like it, I'll just stop."

Then, he glanced in Leonardo's direction, and said with interest, "What's going on between you and
Leonardo?"

When Summer turned around and looked over, she saw Amber standing face to face with Leonardo
and talking to him.



Leonardo was in his seat, while Amber was standing. Amber had blocked Summer's sights to
Leonardo, so Summer could not see the expression on Leonardo's face.

She did not know what Amber and Leonardo were talking about, but she was somewhat surprised that
Leonardo would listen to Amber so patiently.

In the past three years, it was believed that Amber was Leonardo's fiancée, and Leonardo had never
denied it.

Therefore, it was actually acquiesced that Amber was indeed Leonardo's fiancée.

Even if they weren't engaged, there must be something going on between them.

Jessica walked over to Summer. "I told you that minxes would never stop trying to climb up to Mr.
Emerson's..." Before she could say the word "bed", she shuddered when seeing Stanley beside
Summer. Stanley saw Jessica and nodded to her politely.

Jessica could only smile to him politely. Then, she moved closer to Summer and whispered to her in a
voice that only the two of them could hear, "What's going on? Why is Stanley here?"

"Leonardo invited him," Summer said absent-mindedly, her voice sounding a little cold.

Although she was speaking to Jessica, her gaze was fixed on Leonardo's direction.

Jessica turned around and saw Amber sitting down beside Leonardo. Although Amber and Leonardo
did not have any physical contact, it meant a lot because Leonardo actually allowed Amber to sit
beside him.

Jessica, after suppressing her words for a while, blurted out, "She's the whore and he's the
whoremonger!"



"We've been here for a long time. It's time for us to say hello." After Summer finished speaking, she
stretched out her hand and took Stanley's arm. She said, "Shall we?"

Stanley glanced at her face. He could not help but laugh, "Sure."
