Chapter 316 Not Decent

After the kidnapping that year, Leonardo had been against Michael for a long time.

At that time, he hadn't figured out anything unusual about the kidnapping. He just felt that Michael was
also responsible for it.

Since then, there had been a gap between them.

Since Leonardo was sent abroad by Michael and lived with Violet's family, he had made a clean break
with Michael.

After Leonardo returned, he built his own villa and founded Tip Top Media Company. At the meanwhile,
the conflict between him and Michael had also deepened day by day.

"Yes." When Leonardo sized Michael up, Michael was also looking at him.

They didn't seem to be father and son, but strangers.

Leonardo's gaze finally landed on Michael's eyes. He asked in an indifferent voice, "Why are you
there?"

"I just want to see where you live." Michael's tone was as cold as Leonardo's.

In the early years, Michael had also tried to ease the relationship with Leonardo. However, they had
barely spoken with each other in the recent years.

"Really? How can you suddenly care about me so much?" Leonardo looked at him with a faint smile.

What Michael disliked the most was such an expression on Leonardo's face, which made it impossible
for him to read Leonardo’s mind.

Michael frowned slightly. "Since you're back, go and see your grandfather."



"Alright, we’ll have lunch together." Leonardo stood up and went to the Emerson's where Charlie was
living.

After Charlie was discharged from the hospital, Leonardo seldom came to visit him.

The main reason was that Leonardo had been very busy. For another, he was reluctant to return to the
Emerson's.

Leonardo stood at the door of Charlie's room and paused for a moment before pushing open the door
and entering.

When the servant, who took care of Charlie, saw Leonardo, he whispered to Charlie, "Mr. Charlie,
Leonardo is here to see you."

Charlie sat in a wheelchair with a thin blanket covering his laps. He stared blankly out of the window.
No one knew what he was looking at.

He didn't react to what the servant said.

The servant glanced at Leonardo, nodded slightly, and respectfully greeted, "Mr. Emerson."

"Leave us alone."

After the servant left, Leonardo walked to Charlie and squatted down in front of him. "Grandpa, I'm
Leonardo. How are you?"

His voice caught Charlie's attention.

Charlie turned his head to look at Leonardo. There was no light in his eyes. He just stared at Leonardo
and unconsciously murmured something.



Leonardo pursed his lips and frowned, looking puzzled. He said in a serious tone, "Grandpa, what
exactly are you trying to tell me?"

What Charlie had told him during the Spring Festival indicated that there was more to be known about
the kidnapping case back then.

However, what Charlie wanted to say must be much severer than the little secrets behind a kidnapping
case.

Why were Michael and those men so fearful?

What kind of role did Violet play in the kidnapping case many years ago and in the accident that had
happened to Charlie now?

In the end, Leonardo failed to get any reaction from Charlie.

Leonardo sat with Charlie for a while before leaving.

The servant stood guard at the door. At the sight of Leonardo, he called respectfully, "Mr. Emerson."

"Grandpa is always in such a state?" Leonardo stopped and asked coldly.

The servant shivered slightly and replied, "Yes, he's been like this since then. Mr. Charlie receives
medical inspections regularly every month. And the doctor says he is in good health."

After hearing this, Leonardo pondered for a moment before saying, "Take good care of him."

"Yes."

Leonardo stayed at the Emerson's for lunch.

There were many people living in the villa, but few of them stayed here on weekdays.



At lunch time, there were only Leonardo and Michael.

Leonardo took the wine from the servant and looked up at Michael, "Have a drink."

Michael raised his eyebrows slightly and looked very surprised. "Do you want to drink with me?"

Without further ado, Leonardo took Michael's wine glass and poured some wine into it. After that, he
handed it to Michael.

Michael looked at Leonardo for a few seconds before taking the glass.

Leonardo picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. Then, he placed the glass
upside down, signaling to Michael that he had drunk it up.

Michael didn't drink it all in one gulp like Leonardo. He only took a sip and said, "I'm old. I can't
compare to young guys like you. I have to drink slowly."

"You're only in your fifties, but are you fear of death?" Leonardo showed a faint smile. It was difficult to
read how he was feeling from the expression.

Leonardo and Michael had gotten along in this way for a long time, so Michael didn't feel angry.

"Of course not. I'm still waiting for a sip of toast tea from my daughter-in-law." Michael asked in a
casual way, "Kate introduced a girl to you. Have you met?"

"Yes," As Leonardo spoke, he added wine to Michael's glass.

Michael took a sip and said, "How do you feel?"

Leonardo didn't say anything, just staring at him.



Michael frowned at first, then reached out to support his forehead, seemingly feeling a little dizzy.

Leonardo slightly curled his lips and mocked, "You are indeed old. How can you be dizzy after drinking
a little wine?"

"Wine..." Michael couldn't even finish a sentence before he fainted on the dining table. His head
knocked heavily on the table.

Leonardo sat quietly for three seconds before picking up the wet towel beside him and wiping the
powder from his left fingernail. He walked slowly to Michael and pulled out a strand of hair from his
head.

Although it wasn’t a decent move, it worked.

Summer invited Jessica to a restaurant for dinner.

In terms of what had happened last night, Summer knew Jessica had contacted her out of concern.
However, she left without saying a word, so she did owe her a treat.

Jessica happened to have a few days off. When Summer offered that she would treat Jessica to lunch,
Jessica naturally agreed happily.

Summer booked a private restaurant in advance and waited for Jessica.

Before Jessica arrived, Summer ordered a glass of watermelon juice for Jessica.

Just as the watermelon juice was served, Jessica showed up.

She sat down opposite to Summer and reached out to fiddle with her own hair. "It's too hot."

Summer pushed the juice to Jessica and said, "Have a drink. It's just served."



"I love you." Jessica blew her an exaggerated kiss and drank the juice up in one gulp.

Only now did Summer realize that Jessica didn't wear any makeup.

"You went out without makeup today. Aren't you afraid of being photographed?" Jessica cared of her
own image in front of the public. In general, she wouldn't come out without any makeup.

After Jessica finished drinking the juice, she slumped on the sofa with satisfaction. "I'm currently
committed to my own craft. Without makeup, I am still stunning, so I'm not afraid at
all."
