It was precisely because Summer was greatly newsworthy that it was even more unlikely for those
paparazzi to let her go so easily.
If it weren't paparazzi in the car that had just followed her, then there was only one possibility left...
Summer narrowed her eyes slightly and held Eliza's arm, dragging her towards the studio.
"Let's go. Let's get in first."
Since the car had left, it was pointless for them to try to figure it out here.
After they got into the studio, Summer called Leonardo when she made herself a cup of coffee.
The phone was quickly picked up.
Although Leonardo answered the phone, he did not say anything.
Summer could only take the lead and ask him, "You sent people to follow me?"
After a moment of silence, Leonardo's cold voice sounded, "No."
When the water boiled, Summer put the cup under the tap and turned on the switch. Then she slowly
said, "Do you know that your tone is a little colder than normal when you act stubborn."
What responded to her was deathly silence, followed by a "beep" -- obviously, Leonardo hung up the
phone.
Summer put down her phone and smiled.
This man was sometimes so adorable when acting stubborn, yet sometimes exceptionally hateful when
being a paranoid.
What could she do? She couldn't leave him, anyway; so she had to take her time.
Before the meeting, Summer checked her Twitter again and found that the hottest trending topic had
changed into #The Little Princess of the Emersons.
The netizens were too curious about Rosie and her birth mother, so they immediately pushed the topic
into the hottest trending topic.
Summer sat beside Eliza and whispered to her, "How do I remove a trending topic? Should I just
contact the platform?"
"What do you want to remove?" Eliza turned around, as if she had seen through Summer's thoughts.
Summer raised her eyebrows and said, "Forget it if you are not gonna help me."
"No, no, no, of course I'll help you. I just discovered that you are now more and more unbridled in front
of me." Eliza said, then she told Summer how to remove a trending topic and also helped her contact
the platform.
Summer talked with people from the platform and negotiated the price. The topic was quickly removed.
After the meeting, Eliza couldn't help but feel curious, "That little girl is you and Leonardo's daughter,
right? Are you still together?"
Summer turned to look at Eliza in a leisurely manner. She smiled and said, "You want to know?"
"Yes." Eliza nodded.
Summer put on a bigger smile, "You guess it yourself."
Eliza pouted helplessly and she even wanted to beat Summer up, "We are such close friends, and
you're still not going to tell me the truth?"
"That's right. We are such close friends. How about I treat you to lunch?" Summer said with a smile.
Eliza felt that she had punched on a ball of cotton. There was nothing she could do if Summer wanted
to beat around the bush.
Although she guessed that the little girl at the banquet that day was Leonardo and Summer's daughter,
if Summer did not admit it, she couldn't be 100 percent sure that the girl was their daughter.
Who was not curious, anyway?
Eliza felt that she was almost driven mad by curiosity, but Summer just wouldn't give her an answer.
So, Eliza decided to have an expensive lunch!
She looked at Summer and said with a poker face, "I want to eat at the Golden Cauldron Club!"
Summer nodded, "Alright."
Now she could easily afford a lunch at the Golden Cauldron Club.
At noon, Summer and Eliza went to the Golden Cauldron Club for lunch. They were in Eliza's car.
Before long, Eliza noticed a car following them.
At a crossroad, Eliza signaled Summer to look at the rearview mirror, "Is that the car that followed you
this morning? It has been following us ever since we came out."
Summer only took a glance and then turned her gaze away, "Don't worry about them."
Those people followed them all the way to the Golden Cauldron Club.
When they got off the car, Eliza said, "I don't think they are paparazzi at all. Instead, they are more like
bodyguards, always following us from a certain distance."
Summer smiled imperceptibly and pulled Eliza into the Golden Cauldron Club, "Alright, let's go in."
It was lunch time, and there were a lot of people at the Golden Cauldron Club.
Eliza had a lot of connections, so before they could sit down at their table, Eliza had already stopped
several times to greet different friends, while Summer was with her.
Hoover City was not really a big city, and there was only one Golden Cauldron Club in the city, so
naturally, they would see familiar faces.
The people who greeted Eliza surely knew Summer as well. They would cast curious glances at
Summer but ask nothing.
Everyone was sophisticated here.
When Eliza stopped to greet someone again, Summer whispered in her ear, "I'm going over first. Come
to me when you're done."
"Yes, I know." Eliza nodded and nudged her.
Summer walked to the table alone and sat down. The waiter came over with the menu.
She browsed through the menu and ordered two dishes first, waiting for Eliza.
Summer glanced in Eliza's direction. It was a little boring, so she turned away.
Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure in the crowd.
She looked at the man and muttered, "Stanley Bates?"
Stanley wore a set of black casual clothes today, which was very rare for him. His hair was longer than
usual. Summer could not see his expression clearly due to the distance.
But after all, they had lived together for a period of time, and Summer could still recognize him at a
glance.
However, in her memory, Stanley always liked to wear light-colored clothes. Because of his work, he
had to wear a suit every day like Leonardo.
This was the first time she saw Stanley wearing casual clothes, so she felt that it was quite rare.
Stanley was standing there talking to a waiter.
There was quite a distance, so Summer couldn't just call his name in public. She took out her phone
and called him.
When she dialed the number, her gaze was tightly locked onto Stanley.
However, only a second before she called him, Stanley turned around and left.
After a few beeps, Stanley finally picked up.
His voice was the same as before, with a hint of teasing, "Summer? Why do you have time to call me
today?"
Summer smiled and said, "I just saw you. Are you here to have lunch too, at the Golden Cauldron
Club?"
Stanley remained silent for a long time, and Summer asked again, somewhat puzzled, "Stanley?"
