Chapter 1272 She Was the Cheap One

Summer and Jessica had known each other for so many years, but she had hardly seen Jessica cry.

She did not know what Jessica and Carl had said in the private room, but she could tell their
conversation did not go well.

Summer didn't even dare to ask anything, and only said in a low voice, "It's too cold here. Shall we talk
about it in the car?"

It was cold in winter in Hoover City. It was going to be the New Year's Eve in two weeks, and it was the
coldest time in winter now.

"I'm tired, and want to go home." Jessica shook her head and refused Summer.

Summer said anxiously, "Then let me send you home."

Jessica refused her, "I drove here. I can drive home myself."

"How can you drive? You're drunk."

"I can call a chauffeur to drive for me." As Jessica spoke, she took out her phone to make a call.

Summer could not persuade her, so she could only let Jessica go.

After Jessica left in her car, Leonardo walked up to Summer.

Summer turned to look at him, "I'm worried about her."

"Get in the car first." Leonardo took her to his car in the parking lot.

After getting in the car, Summer was still gloomy. Without saying a word, Leonardo drove towards the
direction Jessica had just left.



After a while, Summer came back to her senses and realized they were not heading home. She asked
doubtfully, "This is not the way home."

"Aren't you worried about Jessica? You can go and check on her." Leonardo said slowly, keeping his
eyes on the street.

Summer stared at him for a moment, pursed her lips, and said, "Leonardo."

"Yes?"

"That's very kind of you."

Leonardo snorted softly, "I hope you don't think you can make me forget about you drinking by sweet-
talking to me."

Summer was lost for words again.

Jessica got out of the car at the entrance of her neighborhood. The chauffeur parked her car in the
underground parking lot, and then he took out the car key and gave it to her.

"Thank you." Jessica walked towards her apartment after she took her key back.

The chauffeur suddenly stopped her, "Miss Jessica..."

"There was a car following us just now." He pointed to a car which was parked not far away from them
and said, "That one."

Jessica's heart skipped a beat as she heard that, and her eyes lit up.

However, the light in her eyes faded when she looked in the direction the chauffeur was pointing at.



She lived in a high-end neighborhood, so there were luxury cars everywhere. But that was not an
ordinary luxury car. It was a limited edition sports car, and she saw it all the time.

It was Leonardo's car.

She couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.

She had said Carl was cheap, but now she thought she was the cheap one.

She was the one who wanted to keep a distance from Carl, but it turned out she was hoping he would
come for her.

Just now, she thought it was Carl following her. And that was something Carl had done before.

It turned out she cared about him more than she knew. She was just an ordinary woman, and she was
so weak when she ran into a relationship problem.

"Miss Jessica, why don't you get in first? I can ask them what they want for you." The chauffeur was
very kind, and thought Jessica was in trouble.

Jessica was now a first-line actress. She was both popular and beautiful, so she might have crazy fans
who would follow her.

"It's fine. They're my friends."

The chauffeur felt assured and left after he heard Jessica's words.

In the car, Summer noticed Jessica had glanced at Leonardo's car. She knew Jessica had discovered
she was there, so she wanted to get out of the car.

But her phone rang at that moment. The call was from Jessica.



She had to close the car door again to pick up the phone.

Jessica watched as Summer closed the car door. At the same time, Summer's voice came out from
Jessica's phone.

"Jessica."

"Go home. I'm fine."
