Leonardo said indifferently, "Yes. They only ask for 50 million in cash. Back then, they even asked for
100 million."
Michael was so frightened that he mumbled, "That's it. That's it.... They only ask for 50 million in cash.
Give it to them...."
Leonardo was Michael's last straw, so Michael could only grasp at Leonardo tightly.
"Then why didn't you give them 100 million?" Leonardo said in a sinister voice and was like a devil
crawling out of hell.
"Leonardo ... Leonardo, I am your father. Help me...." Michael's only thought was to ask Leonardo for
help.
"If you had cared about your wife, she would not have ended up like that! Michael, this is your
retribution!"
Leonardo said every word angrily and hung up the phone with a loud sound.
It was dusk.
The servants were all kicked out, and the hall was dim with no lights on.
In the large living room, apart from Leonardo and Tim standing behind Leonardo, there was only Kate
who had fainted.
Leonardo maintained his posture and sat there motionlessly as if he would merge with the coming
night.
After a long time, Tim said worriedly, "Mr. Emerson."
Summer had gone downstairs softly.
She walked over softly and Tim covered the arm that the kidnappers had sent over. "Mrs. Emerson."
Summer ordered, "Help Miss Kate to her room. Let me hold down the fort here."
Tim took Kate and the broken arm away.
Summer sat down beside Leonardo.
It was getting darker. In the room with no lights on, she couldn't see Leonardo's face clearly.
Summer reached out to cup his face in her hands, turned his face, and looked at him. "Leonardo."
Leonardo turned around and forcefully carried Summer into his arms, but he still didn't forget to avoid
her unhealed wound on her shoulder.
Summer reached out and patted Leonardo's back gently. No matter how much she said, it would be
useless to comfort him.
She could feel Leonardo's heavy breathing spraying on her neck. He was in a bad mood.
"My mother is a gentle and beautiful woman. She is better than anyone else." Leonardo's voice was
hoarse and painful.
Summer felt weepy. "I know that."
She knew how outstanding Daisy was. Daisy was a noble lady from a scholarly family. She thought that
she had married a well-matched husband, but she died miserably in the end.
This was so unfair.
Leonardo's mother was the most innocent person, but she suffered from the most pain and humiliation.
"How could they do that?"
Summer couldn't see Leonardo's face, but she could feel the helplessness and pain in his words.
After so many years, his mother Daisy was a thorn in his heart. She planted in his heart. It would hurt if
he moved.
If Leonardo's mother had really died in a kidnapping case, Leonardo would not have suffered so much.
Summer was unable to answer Leonardo's question.
There was no answer to his question.
She was neither Michael nor Violet, so she could not guess their thoughts when they did this.
Even an outsider like Summer found it hard to accept. She couldn't imagine how painful Leonardo was.
She hugged Leonardo tightly and said in a serious and firm tone, "I and Rosie will be by your side. Our
family will be reunited very soon. If Daisy in heaven knows you are happy, she will be happy too. She
loves you so much."
Just as she finished speaking, she felt warm tears fall onto her neck.
Summer did not move again and kept silent.
The next day.
Summer and Leonardo set off for the small island that Adams mentioned.
The island was surrounded by sea. The scenery was beautiful. It took them a day and a night to get
there by plane.
Before leaving, Summer saw the news headline.
"The kidnapped Michael was found and rushed to hospital early this morning. He is out of danger now."
Summer roughly read the news and closed the web page. She put away her phone and looked at
Leonardo who was sitting opposite her.
Last night, she and Leonardo sat in the hall for a long time. Then she fell asleep. When she woke up,
she was on the plane.
As usual, Leonardo wore a prim suit and held a stack of documents in his hand. He looked down
indifferently, and he didn't seem to be dejected at all.
His self-adjustment ability was astonishing.
"It looks like I'm more attractive than the breakfast." Leonardo put down the documents in his hand and
looked up at her. "You have stared at me for two minutes and haven't touched your breakfast."
Summer was surprised. She lowered her head and took a bite of the steamed buns before saying, "I
didn't know you had a private plane."
This time, they were taking about Leonardo's private plane.
Leonardo lowered his head and continued to read the documents in his hand. "If you like, I'll buy one
for you when we get back."
After eating two buns, Summer had no appetite. She sat beside him and read the documents with him.
Leonardo was reading some information about the island, as well as what Adams had done in the past
six months.
When Adams wrote down the address for Leonardo, apart from arranging people to keep an eye on
Adams, Leonardo also arranged people to go to the island first.
However, apart from the villas and a few servants who were house-sitting, they didn't find Rosie on the
island.
Summer curled her lips and said worriedly, "Adams is too cunning. I always feel things will not go
smoothly."
"Do you believe me?" Leonardo put down the documents in his hand and pulled her into his embrace.
Summer raised her head and said word by word, "I believe you forever."
Leonardo fixed her hair beside her ear and said, "Then don't worry."
Summer nodded and turned to look out of the window. However, she still felt uneasy.
She took a deep breath and stood up, "I'll get a look at Miss Rachel."
Leonardo seemed to have noticed her uneasiness and didn't say anything else. He only nodded and
agreed.
When Summer went over, she saw Rachel sitting by the window. Rachel looked calm and beautiful.
Summer greeted, "Miss Rachel."
"Mrs. Emerson," Rachel turned to look at her.
"Sorry. I don't know your original name." Summer could not imagine what kind of things Rachel had
experienced. Rachel was even willing to have plastic surgery to be another woman.
Rachel was calm. "My original name isn't important. What is important is that Mr. Emerson has helped
me, and I happen to be able to help you find Rosie."
