Leonardo ignored Carl and just hung up the phone.
However, Carl didn't give up.
Although Leonardo had been ordering him around, Leonardo would give him a lot of dividends at the
end of each year.
For this reason, even if Leonardo wasn't kind, Carl still treated him as his bro.
Leonardo received a message just after he arrived at his office and sat down.
He glanced at it and discovered that it was from Carl. However, he didn't check it but put his phone
aside and started working.
Carl waited for a long time and didn't get Leonardo's reply, so he guessed that Leonardo didn't read the
message at all.
He wasn't discouraged and called Tim instead.
Tim, who was printing a document, picked up the phone and asked, "Mr. Carl, what's up?"
"I'll send you a link to a piece of news on WeChat. You show it to Leonardo, and remember to calm him
down."
"What?" Tim didn't understand what Carl was trying to say.
Tim wanted to ask again, but the line was busy. He shouted and got no answer, so he only hung up the
phone and looked at the WeChat.
There was indeed an unread message sent by Carl.
Tim checked it and saw a link.
And soon, he received another two messages from Carl.
"You must show it to Leonardo."
"And calm him down!"
Tim was perplexed and wondered what made Carl so serious.
He clicked the link and was shocked by the headline in bold.
"Kissing Affectionately in the Car, Mr. Emerson's Ex-wife Got a New Boyfriend?"
Under the headline were a few photos.
In those photos a man and a woman were kissing in a car.
The man wore a green hoodie and a cap that people couldn't see his face clearly. However, it was easy
to tell that the woman was Summer since she tilted her head slightly.
Tim was familiar with the two in the photos, so he recognized that they were Summer and Leonardo at
a glance.
Besides, Leonardo's clothes were those Tim had picked for him yesterday, and they fit quite well.
Tim took his phone and went to look for Leonardo.
He arrived at the president's office and knocked the door.
Leonardo's low voice sounded, "Come in."
He looked up and frowned at the sight of Tim, "What's up?"
"I have something to show you," Tim said and handed his phone to Leonardo.
The content on the screen was exactly the photo of Leonardo and Summer kissing in the car.
Leonardo swiped the screen up and saw the obvious headline.
Leonardo sneered, "Mr. Emerson's ex-wife?"
Summer was his lawfully wife now.
Recently, most of the news about Summer online labeled her as "Mr. Emerson's ex-wife."
"Mr. Emerson, what should we do?" Tim asked.
After a few seconds, Leonardo said slowly, "I don't want to see words like my ex-wife in the news about
Summer again."
Tim was confused.
Wasn't it more important to clarify the news or to reduce the heat of the topic?
As he was wondering what to say, Leonardo's phone suddenly rang.
Leonardo looked at it and found that it was Carl again.
He recalled what Carl had said just now and guessed that Carl had misunderstood.
After some thought, he picked up the phone.
However, as soon as the phone was connected, Carl comforted before Leonardo could speak,
"Leonardo, don't get angry. Lately, a saying is popular online that if you want to live an easy life, you
have to turn a blind eye to your partner's betrayal. This kind of thing...."
Leonardo didn't hang up the phone but said to Tim, "Go and help Carl make an appointment with a
brain surgeon, the best one."
Tim would never disobey Leonardo, so he said with a wry face, "Yes...."
Carl also heard what Leonardo said.
"Leonardo, I've already asked someone to authenticate that photo. It's not composite. Why don't you
believe me? Are you losing your head?" he said anxiously.
"You're losing your head." Leonardo hung up the phone and blocked Carl's number.
Just as Summer was about to go out, she received a phone call from Jessica, "Let's have breakfast
together."
"You have time now? It's Okay with me." Jessica was busier than Summer, who had flexible working
hours. Thus, whenever Jessica asked her out, Summer would make time for her.
Jessica replied, "Yes, I'm free now."
They decided to meet in a tea restaurant not far from Summer's residence.
When Summer entered, Jessica hadn't come yet. She waited for more than ten minutes before Jessica
came in with sunglasses and a cap.
After Jessica sat down, Summer asked, "Why did you suddenly ask me out for breakfast?"
If Jessica had no work, she would lie in bed all day. She wouldn't ask Summer out so early.
"How is everything going on between you and Leonardo?" Jessica's expression looked a little strange.
Summer noticed the oddity of Jessica's tone and said, "We're fine."
"Really?" Jessica obviously didn't believe it.
"Yes." Summer nodded with her eyes coolly appraising Jessica.
It seemed that Jessica wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say.
Summer was not used to the hesitant Jessica. She pursed her lips and said, "Alright, just come to the
point. I feel uncomfortable to see you stutter."
"Alright, then I'll be frank!" Jessica sat up in an exaggerated way and straightened her back, saying at a
breath, "Why didn't you tell me that you broke up with Leonardo and had a new boyfriend?"
Summer was puzzled for a moment and finally understood what Jessica was talking about, "I broke up
with Leonardo? I had a new boyfriend?"
Jessica's expression was very serious, "Yes. I'm your best friend, who has slept with you in the same
bed and worn the same clothes as you, but I actually learned about your recent relationship from the
news. This hurts my feelings."
Seeing that Jessica say those ridiculous things seriously, Summer couldn't help laughing, "Who told
you that? Which newspaper released this news? I have to sue it for slander."
Jessica took out her phone with a straight face and handed it to Summer, "See it for yourself."
Summer took the phone and got shocked at the first glance.
She looked up at Jessica in astonishment, "It says that I have a new boyfriend and we're kissing in the
car?"
"There are photos under the headline." Jessica crossed her arms and put on an indifferent
look.
“There are photos under the headline." Jessica crossed her arms and put on an indifferent
look.
