The car stopped in front of a mountain villa.
After Tim stopped the car, he looked back at Leonardo and Summer who were on the back seat.
Leonardo stared ahead with an indifferent expression, as if he was deep in thought. But it seemed that
he didn't think of anything.
Summer and Tim looked at each other. Then she turned to Leonardo. "Here we are. Let's get off the
car."
After a few seconds, Leonardo finally regained his senses. He glanced at Summer and then looked at
the villa through the window.
Although his face changed, he still sat motionless and didn't want to get off.
Summer kept silent for a moment. She opened the car door, and was about to get off.
Just as she stepped out of the car, her wrist was grabbed. She turned around and found Leonardo was
staring at her.
Summer said gently, "I'll go in to take a look first."
She pulled Leonardo's hand away and got out of the car.
She could understand Leonardo's feelings. Leonardo had witnessed the accident, so she couldn't feel
the same way as him. But she could understand the struggle and pain in Leonardo's heart.
When Tim saw Summer get off the car, he went to the trunk to get her wheelchair.
But he did not expect that Summer stopped him. "Don't bother."
Hearing this, Tim was surprised.
"I'll walk in." Summer said in an indifferent expression as she walked inside.
Recently, she was recovering, and she could walk further. If she persisted, she could walk without the
wheelchair in her daily life, especially at this moment.
In the past, Leonardo always stood in front of her. She wanted to do the same for him when he was
vulnerable. This was probably the only chance in her life.
Summer made up her mind and strode inside. After a few steps, she heard the car door closed behind
her.
Summer turned around and found that Leonardo already got out of the car and was standing in front of
it.
He strode towards Summer and reached out to her, signaling her to hold his arm.
"Are you mentally prepared?" Summer did not reach out to support him immediately.
She wasn't sure if Leonardo was mentally prepared, but she knew he got off partly because he was
worried about her without a wheelchair, so he wanted to support her.
He was considerate and gentle. Others probably wouldn't believe it.
But there was no need for others to believe. It was enough for her to know it.
Leonardo held Summer's hand and looked down, whispering, "I find that I am most afraid when you are
not by my side."
'But you're right next to me.'
'So I can overcome the cowardice and fear in my heart.'
Even though he didn't speak out these words, Summer could understand him.
"Let's go." Summer pulled him inside.
Upon entering the villa, Summer felt that the layout of the courtyard looked very familiar.
"The courtyard follows the style of the Emerson's." Leonardo said suddenly.
Hearing what he said, Summer found that this courtyard was very similar to the Emerson's old
mansion.
"Why did Lester do this?" As Summer walked in, she found it became even more similar with the
Emerson's.
"Because of my mother."
As Leonardo said, Summer could feel that he held her hand tighter.
It showed that he was anxious.
