Chapter 554 Otherwise, You Will Bear the Consequences!

Summer placed her hands on the dining table and leaned forward slightly. "Where is he?"

Connel only laughed and did not answer her question. He stood up, intending to leave.

Summer hurriedly followed and stood in front of Connel. "At least, let me see Stanley. You keep me
from seeing Stanley. What's the purpose of keeping me here?"

From Stanley's words, Summer could conclude that Connel did not seem to have any malicious
intentions towards her. They were the only people left, so she dared to put everything on the table.

Connel looked down at Summer. Connel was thinking something, and he didn't immediately say
anything.

He didn't wear many clothes. He wore a shirt inside and a suit jacket outside. However, he didn't button
his shirt to the top like Stanley. Stanley was a psychiatrist. He always wore a suit and a tie when he
went to work, looking very convincing.

Connel appeared to be a little more casual than him. The two buttons on the top of his shirt were not
buttoned. Summer looked up at him. Suddenly, she saw a faint scar left uncovered beside his collar.

She remembered when Stanley first came to her three years ago, there were many scars on his body.
Later, when he was hospitalized, Summer saw them. Connel also had scars on his body?

The siblings were adopted when they were teenagers because their parents died unexpectedly.

Logically speaking, they should lead an ordinary life. How could they both be covered in scars?

Connel noticed Summer's gaze and looked down at his chest. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Ms.
Summer, are you trying to seduce me so as to get Stanley's whereabouts?"



Summer was stunned and then said angrily, "Do you really think everyone is as shameless as you?
You are out of your mind."

After she finished, she turned around and went out. Watching her back, Connel suddenly frowned. He
reached out and hugged his head. An incomparably painful expression appeared on his face.

He staggered and crashed into the chair behind him. Because of the splitting headache, he simply
couldn't keep his balance and fell to the ground with his legs bent.

The next moment, Jenny rushed in from outside. "What's wrong with you?"

She hurriedly squatted in front of Connel, wanting to help him up.

After Summer returned to her room, she sat on the bed and couldn't figure anything out.

She felt there were many clues, but she couldn't get anywhere exactly.

'How about making a call to Leonard?'

She had to find someone to come up with an idea.

She picked up her phone and pressed Leonard's phone number one by one. After hesitating for a
while, she dialed it.

If Leonard's attitude was cold, she would say that she missed Rosie.

Besides, she did miss Rosie a lot.

The phone rang several times....

No one answered. The phone was picked up when it was about to hang up automatically.



Summer did not expect to get through. She was not sure if it was Leonard or Tim. She asked
tentatively, "Leonard?"

"Yes."

Leonard only responded indifferently. Fortunately, it was indeed the voice that Summer was familiar
with.

Summer had only been in Country M for about a week. However, apart from the first two days, she had
not contacted Leonard since then. At the sound of Leonard's voice, Summer felt a little out of it.

She held the phone in one hand and unconsciously tugged at the sheets with the other hand. "What
are you doing?"

Leonard said coldly, "Having a meal."

Rosie's voice came from the other side. "Who is calling?"

Then Rosie asked, "Is that Mom?"

When Summer heard Rosie's voice, her tone was heavy with joy. "Are you and Rosie eating at home?"

Leonard snorted coldly and said mockingly, "Do you still remember that you have a daughter?"

Summer pretended that she didn't hear it. "Put Rosie on the phone."

After a moment of silence, Rosie's voice came from her phone. "Mom!"

It was supposed that Leonard had turned on the speakerphone, and Rosie's voice was a little loud
when she got closer.

"Rosie, do you miss mom?"



"Yes, I do."

Hearing Rosie's voice, Summer couldn't help but smile.

Before Summer could speak, she heard Rosie added, "Daddy miss you too. He even cried."

Rosie stressed the second half of her words, sounding a little exaggerated, like an animation effect.

"What?" Summer didn't understand.

Leonard missed her so much that he cried?

Perhaps Leonard had taken the phone away, and Rosie's annoyed voice came from the other end of
the phone. "I still want to talk to Mom!"

As expected, the next moment, Leonard's voice rang out on the phone.

He explained emotionlessly, "I choked on hotpot the day before yesterday, for Carl teased Rosie. She
was talking about it."

Summer got the point. "You took her to have hotpot?"

Before Leonard spoke, Rosie, who was standing at the side, said loudly, "Super spicy!"

Leonard narrowed his eyes and looked at Rosie. She shrugged her shoulders and blinked her eyes.
Then she trotted to the maid and said, "I'm so thirsty."

Rosie was good at escaping.

Summer gritted her teeth and said, "Leonard, how can you take Rosie to have hotpot?"

"I ordered a small pot of light soup for her."



"But she said it was spicy."

"She didn't have spicy food. She just tasted a little."

"Anyway, she tasted it!"

Leonard didn't reply.

Leonard stopped talking and the phone went quiet for a moment.

After a while, Leonard continued, "When will you come back?"

After he finished, he hurriedly added, "Rosie misses you."

"You don't miss me?"

Leonard gave a snort.

Because of his reaction, Summer felt a little guilty.

Summer went abroad alone. Now, no progress had been made. Instead, she had fallen into a mystery
and wanted to ask Leonard for help. Why was she so useless?

Leonard was the first to say, "Have you seen Stanley?"

"No, I checked in the villa last night and found that besides the servants and bodyguards, Connel was
the only one here. I haven't found Stanley for the time being. Last night...."

Just as she was about to say that she received a phone call from Stanley last night, Leonard suddenly
asked coldly, "Do you live with Stanley? Is he the only one?"



Summer didn't know how to reply. The next moment, Leonard's furious voice sounded. "Summer, I
want to see you in Hoover City before tomorrow night. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
