Summer glanced at the door and saw the two girls cursing at each other across the hospital bed. Their
once beautiful faces were now bruised.
Summer didn't expect them to fight so fiercely.
She thought they would pull each other's hair and scratch each other's face at most. But then they
started swinging their fists at each other and Summer had to call in the bodyguard to stop them.
Summer was reluctant to go inside and listen to their curses. She turned around and ordered the
bodyguard behind her, "Keep an eye on them."
Then, she walked to the chair in the corridor and sat down, waiting for Leonardo.
Soon, a nurse came over and asked respectfully, "Mrs. Emerson, we have a lounge. Do you want to
have a rest there?"
"No, thank you." Summer waved her hand.
...
When Leonardo arrived, Eliza and Alisa's wounds were bandaged.
Although they had fought ruthlessly, they didn't have much strength as women. Besides, they were
stopped by the bodyguard. So they only had a few superficial injuries.
However, their bruised faces were horrible.
When Leonardo saw Summer, he hurriedly walked toward her with his black eyes locked on her. His
gaze patrolled on her body back and forth a few times before he felt relieved.
He then asked her, "How are they?"
At that moment, Eliza and Alisa were coming out of the ward. Summer looked in their direction and
said, "You can check by yourself."
"Leonardo, look how hard she beat me up..."
Leonardo turned around and saw Alisa's bruised and swollen face.
Calm and composed as Leonardo was, he couldn't help but frown. There was a rare hint of uncertainty
in his tone. "Alisa?"
"That's right, Leonardo. I'm Alisa." Alisa was excited when she heard Leonardo call her name.
Leonardo quietly took a step back and looked at Eliza who was behind Alisa.
Eliza's condition wasn't any better than Alisa's. When Leonardo looked at her, she covered her face
with her hand and turned her head to the side, as if she was embarrassed.
Summer noticed Eliza's action and had to put her hand on her lips to hold back her laughter.
Leonardo was so smart that he understood what had happened within an instant.
A typical grudge between women. They wouldn't fight if Summer didn't encourage them to.
Since Eliza and Alisa were fighting like crazy, he bet Summer was adding fuel to the flame.
Though Summer seemed to be sensible and calm, she was in fact an onlooker and a bit pranky.
Leonardo said indifferently, "Since you're fine, you can go back."
Alisa didn't expect that Leonardo would ask her to go back. Shouldn't he take revenge for her?
Even if she and Leonardo weren't close now, they were still cousins. Both of them belonged to the
Emersons.
She was beaten up by Eliza and it was Leonardo's duty to take revenge for her!
"Leonardo, Eliza..."
Leonardo knew what Alisa was thinking, but it was Summer who was behind the fight. Of course, he
wouldn't help anyone vent their anger.
He looked at Alisa with a straight face. "Who started it?"
Alisa was still a little afraid of him. Sensing his cold glance, her arrogance weakened. She whispered,
"Eliza."
She carefully looked at Summer and gave her a threatening look.
Summer felt it was funny.
She actually laughed.
She stared at Alisa with a faint smile. Alisa seemed to have no brain, did she?
Even Eliza, who planned to go to her home to seduce Leonardo, was smarter than Alisa.
Leonardo also noticed Alisa's action. He sneered and said, "Go back by yourself. Don't go to my home
uninvited again."
Alisa looked at Leonardo in disbelief. "Leonardo!"
"Why aren't you leaving? Should I ask Grandpa to send someone to pick you up?" Leonardo's
eyebrows furrowed more tightly. Impatience flashed through his eyes. He no longer had the patience to
say another word to her.
Seeing Leonardo's sullen face, Alisa didn't dare to say anything. She gave Eliza a hostile look and left.
Leonardo turned around and took Summer's hand. "Let's go."
They walked in the front with Eliza and the bodyguard after them.
After leaving the hospital, Summer realized that Eliza hadn't said a word since Leonardo arrived.
She turned her head to look at Eliza in confusion, only to see Eliza staring at her with a weird look.
Why was Eliza staring at her?
Didn't Eliza want to seduce Leonardo? Shouldn't she be staring at Leonardo instead?
Eliza saw Summer looking at her and turned her gaze away from Summer. She lowered her head and
hurriedly got into the car in the back with the bodyguard.
Summer frowned and got into the car in the front. Leonardo fastened her seat belt and asked her,
"What's wrong?"
Summer opened her mouth but didn't know what to say. She could only shake her head.
Leonardo, after fastening her seat belt, placed one hand on her seatback. He looked at her with a cold
face and said, "You were messing around!"
Summer's face was frank. "They were the ones who wanted to fight."
She knew she wasn't prudent enough today.
But would she admit that she was messing around?
Impossible.
Not in this lifetime.
She simply didn't stop them from fighting. She didn't ask them to fight.
She thought Leonardo would continue to lecture her or something.
But instead, Leonardo leaned over, kissed her forehead, and patted her head. His tone was filled with a
smile and a hint of seduction. "You can do whatever you want as long as you're safe."
"What?" Summer turned to look at him.
Leonardo gently rubbed her hair again, "Now go to the court."
"Okay." Summer touched her own head.
After a while, Summer tentatively asked him, "Do you mean that as long as I'm willing to, I can act like
an overlord in Hoover City?"
Leonardo didn't look at her. "You can even act like an empress if you want to."
His words were not very serious, but they sounded extraordinarily serious in Summer's ears.
Summer asked again, "You mean I can do whatever I want?"
Leonardo didn't reply, which meant he agreed.
When the car stopped at the entrance of the court, Leonardo said faintly, "It was my fault previously."
Summer thought she had heard it wrong.
"Excuse me?"
"Get off the car."
Leonardo unbuckled his seat belt with a straight face and got off first.
Summer followed him closely and asked him to say it again.
She must record it when he said it again, otherwise she wouldn't believe that Leonardo would say such
an apology.
