Chapter 178: Threaten Summer

Summer and Leonardo had breakfast with Charlie and were about to leave.

Before leaving, Charlie stopped Summer and said, "Wait a moment. I want to talk to you."

After getting along with him for a day, Summer felt that Charlie was actually easy to get along with. He
might have a strange temper, but it wasn't a problem.

Therefore, when she heard that Charlie wanted to talk to her, she did not hesitate and immediately
followed him.

Unexpectedly, Leonardo held her hand.

Seeing that Charlie's expression had changed, Summer hurriedly winked at Leonardo and whispered
to him, "Let me go."

Charlie sighed bitterly, "I just want to talk to her. I won't hurt her!"

"Okay," Leonardo responded and let go of Summer.

Charlie glared at him as if he wished he could beat him up.

Summer hurried over and helped Charlie into the room.

After entering the room, Charlie changed his irritable expression and became calm.

"I know that you weren't willing to marry Leonardo back then." The moment he opened his mouth, what
he said caused Summer's heart to tremble.

She did not reply immediately and waited for Charlie to continue.



"You are a smart girl, so you can naturally tell that Leonardo is sincere to you. Since you have married
him, you should be a good Mrs. Emerson. The Emersons will treat you fairly."

Although Charlie was expressing his thought, he was also threatening Summer.

If she dared to cheat on Leonardo, Charlie would take action even before him.

It could be seen that Charlie really loved Leonardo.

No wonder Leonardo hated the Emersons so much but when he knew that Charlie had called to ask
him to return to the old house, he was still willing to return.

Summer did not hate Charlie's threat. Instead, she smiled and said, "Grandfather, love is a mutual
affection. Leonardo and I are the same as you and Leonardo."

Charlie treated Leonardo well, so Leonardo naturally listened to him.

Since Leonardo treated her well, she naturally wouldn't betray him.

When Charlie heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed loudly. "You are quite
good at bluffing. Alright, hurry up and go. Don't let that brat wait for too long, otherwise, he would be
anxious."

"Then I'll leave now. I'll come to see you again."

Summer went out and did not see Leonardo.

When she walked out of the door, he saw Leonardo and Alisa standing together and talking.

She had to say that the Emersons' genes were really good. Alisa had an exquisite appearance, and
Leonardo was the best among men. Standing together, they looked extremely pleasing.



Summer intended to walk over after their talk, but Leonardo suddenly turned his head and looked in her
direction as if he could see behind her back.

Summer could only walk over.

Alisa also followed Leonardo's line of sight. When she saw Summer, she frowned slightly and her eyes
flashed with surprise. "She..."

Leonardo did not want to introduce Summer to Alisa. He directly grabbed her shoulder and walked out
with her, "Let's go."

Alisa called him subconsciously, "Leonardo."

Among the younger generation of the Emersons, Adams was the oldest, followed by Leonardo's twin
sister. And Leonardo was the third.

He was those younger Emersons' brother.

Leonardo left without looking back, but Summer turned around and looked at Alisa with a smile.

Alisa remembered what she had said to Summer, and her face immediately turned red.

She was close to Leonardo when she was a child. Later, when Leonardo's mother had an accident, he
left the old house. Afterwards, she heard that Leonardo had disfigured and had fallen ill. She never
contacted Leonardo again.

Even when she became a host in the TV station, she did not tell her colleagues that she was from the
Emersons. She was afraid that if others found out about it and asked her about Leonardo, she would
feel embarrassed.



A few days ago, after Leonardo's true appearance was revealed, she had totally different thoughts and
she wanted to visit Leonardo.

After all, Leonardo was the sole orthodox successor of the Emersons. In the future, he would be in
charge of the Emersons, and all of his siblings had to rely on him.

Before she could take action, she heard that Leonardo had brought his newly married wife back to the
old house, and she came back specially to meet him.

However, she did not expect that the woman she had thought to be brought back by one of her cousins
was actually Leonardo's newly married wife!

She wondered if that woman would tell Leonardo what had happened.

Alisa felt that she still needed to find an opportunity to visit Leonardo again and try to be closer to him.

...

Inside the car, Summer sat weakly in the back row, leaning against the back of the chair, and staring at
the top of the carriage with her eyes empty.

Leonardo reached out and touched her head, "Are you tired?"

"A little."

Actually, she wasn't just a little bit tired. She felt very tired.

Although Leonardo told her not to worry too much and let her be herself, how could she not get
worried?

No matter how much Leonardo hated the Emersons, he was one of the Emersons. Although she was
living with Leonardo, she still wanted to perform well in the Emersons and make no trouble for him.



She had been careful and cautious, afraid of making mistakes. She had to be careful when Charlie
talked to her.

Leonardo held her in his arms and said in a low voice above her head, "We won't go back to the old
house if not necessary."

"You're not going back to see Grandpa? I think he really wants you to go back to see him." Summer
leaned against his chest, her voice muffled.

Leonardo's voice suddenly became cold. "Even if I don't go back to see him, he still lives well."

Summer straightened up and discovered that Leonardo's expression had indeed changed.

"What's wrong?" Why had he changed so fast?

Leonardo didn't say anything and just tilted his head to kiss her.

Summer pushed him. Tim was still driving!

However, Leonardo ignored him and kissed her with his hand on her head.

Tim sat upright and did not look back.

Who could understand the feeling of him as an unmarried youth?

After the kiss, they were panting.

Leonardo hugged her and didn't say anything, but he was a little distracted.

In the morning, he went to see his grandfather in advance to ask about the details of his mother's case
back then.



What did grandpa say?

"It's over. You have to look ahead. If your mother were alive, she would wish you live happily."

Charlie's words implied that he should stop investigating what had happened to his mother back then.

Why didn't he want him to investigate the case?

Was he afraid that Leonardo would find out something terrible?

However, he insisted on investigating.
