Chapter 778 Leonardo Didn&##x27;t Show Up

Trevin had indeed put in a lot of efforts for Summer and the case in the past two months.

During this time, every nerve in Trevin's body was tense. He was afraid of losing the case.

"I've been fatigued lately. After winning the case, I can have a good rest." Trevin suppressed his
anxiety and explained.

Sensing Trevin's nervousness, Summer comforted him, “Man proposes and God disposes. Even if we
lose, there is still another way."

Trevin said with a serious face, "We won't lose. Let's go inside."

Summer looked back and said, "You can go first. I'll be there shortly."

Trevin felt weird, asking, "Who are you waiting for?"

"Two of my friends," Summer said.

Trevin looked at her again and went in.

Not long after, Jessica and Carl arrived. They said that they would come to the court for her. So,
instead of going in with Trevin, Summer waited for them outside.

Jessica and Carl got to the courthouse in their own cars. Jessica didn't fully recover yet. It was her
assistant who drove her here. Carl walked behind Jessica.

"Summer!" Jessica went toward Summer.

Then, Carl walked over. He asked, "Is Leonardo here?"

"I don't see him." Summer looked into the distance. There was no Leonardo or Tim.



Carl shook his head, "Let's go in."

The news that Leonardo and Amber were getting married was everywhere on the Internet. They knew
it, and they were avoiding mentioning it.

Summer nodded, entering the courthouse with Carl and Jessica.

Leonardo didn't show up. Stanley appeared in the court, and he was sitting at the public gallery.

Tim appeared in the court in the last minute, too. Leonardo was absent, but the court session still had
to open.

Summer and Trevin looked at each other in the eye, not knowing what was going on.

"Mr. Emerson can't come. He has something to deal with," Tim said.

Leonardo's lawyer was a top one, yet he lacked confidence because of Leonardo's absence.

Trevin was afraid of Leonardo, so he felt more at ease and relaxed.

Trevin was wearing a black suit today, which was different from his usual style. And he looked more
reliable.

"There is a huge financial gap between them. However, as the president of the Emerson Group, does
Leonardo have enough time to take care of the child and to love her? For a three-year-old child, love
from her parents is more important than money...."

"I think you're changing the subject. What we're talking about...."

The lawyers on both sides were brilliant, and the trial lasted for three hours before it ended. Leonardo
didn't show up the whole time.



At the entrance of the courthouse, Summer called Tim, "Tim, why doesn't Leonardo come?"

Tim looked serious as usual. "Miss Amber is ill. She is in the hospital. Mr. Emerson has to be there with
her."

Trevin and the others who walked behind also heard what Tim said.

Jessica couldn't help but said, "Amber bears his child, so he doesn't care about Rosie anymore, right?"
Summer lowered her eyes and pulled Jessica's arm.

"Isn't it obvious? Leonardo went to great lengths to fight for custody. Now he doesn't show up in the
court. Everyone knows that his fiancée is pregnant and that they are getting married."

Jessica got angrier as she spoke. Then, she walked to a pillar and kicked it hard. She was here for
personal business, so she didn't wear high heels. Her feet hurt a little.

Pretending that he didn't hear Jessica's words, Tim nodded at them and left.

Jessica said to Summer in a worried tone, "You have custody of Rosie now. Don't let Leonardo and the
bitch get to you."

Summer smiled at her, turning her eyes to Trevin. Only then did she notice that Stanley was standing
beside Trevin.

She ignored Stanley, looking at Trevin's face and said with gratitude, "Good job today. Thanks."

The outcome of the trial was better than she imagined.

"You just need to wait for the verdict. And don't forget what you promised me." Trevin was holding a
briefcase. Today, he looked like a real lawyer, prudent and reliable.

Jessica looked at Trevin with distrust, whispering to Summer, "What did you promise him?"



Jessica knew about Trevin not long ago. She didn't think Trevin was a serious man, so she was
worried.

Summer said, "Something serious."

"You are always holding out on me these days." Jessica curled her lip.

Summer reached out to tidy the hair on Jessica's forehead, "It's not like that. When the verdict is
reached, I'll tell you everything."

"Alright."

Then, Carl said, "Summer, you win the first instance, but what if Leonardo appeals?"

Before Summer could say anything, Trevin replied for her, "Amber is pregnant in the hospital. How can
he appeal? Besides, he's not a good father for the child now."

Carl was also a man. He could tell that Trevin had feelings for Summer.

However, Summer had been together with Leonardo for so long, and he had been Leonardo's long-
time friend. Even though he had a conflict with Leonardo now, he still felt that Trevin was trying to take
his friend's wife away.

Therefore, whenever facing Trevin, he would get a long face.

But there was no right or wrong now, since Leonardo and Summer had drifted apart.

"I'm leaving. Call me if you need anything." Carl came here to see what the outcome would be.
Summer might win the first instance, and he didn't want to stay any longer.

Staying with Trevin was not a delightful thing for him, so it was better to get Trevin out of his sight.



Summer nodded at him, "Goodbye."

Raising the phone in his hand, Carl said "call me", and got in his car and left.

Jessica had no intention of leaving, "Summer, why don't I go to your apartment with you?"

"I have something to do. You should go home and rest, so you can fully recover." Jessica had been
standing for a while. Summer was afraid that she would get tired, so she took her into the car.

It would take a hundred days for the sinews and bones to recover. Jessica had been injured for less
than two months. She still needed to rest.
