Chapter 399 No Match for Leonardo

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Leonardo raised his eyebrows and looked at her. "What did you say?"

There was a hint of menace in his indifferent voice.

Summer's expression stiffened slightly as she pursed her lips and lowered her head, continuing to read

through the files.

The past between Leonardo and her were recorded in detail.

But she had no memories of what had happened before. It was as if she was looking at someone else's

story. She didn't feel anything at all.

As she read, she couldn't help peeking at Leonardo.

It was just a bowl of beef noodles, but Leonardo ate like it was a big meal. The way he ate was

extremely pleasing to her eyes.

Apart from his strange temper, Leonardo had merits.

It was hard to imagine that so many things had happened between Leonardo and her.

Summer suddenly thought of Vicky.

Vicky mentioned a name before—Adams Wilson.

According to what Vicky said, Summer figured out the things related to Adams should happen three

years ago.

Thus, she looked for the information from back to front.

Then, Summer saw the explosion event on the small island three years ago.

However, it was not documented in detail.

It only said that Adams planted a bomb on the island, intending to kill Leonardo and her. There was no

explanation about why he planted the bomb and why she and Leonardo went to the island.

Summer skipped through the papers, but failed to figure out Adams’ identity. She asked Leonardo,

"What's the relationship between Adams and you?"

Leonardo had already finished the noodles and was wiping his hands with a towel slowly.

"My aunt's son," he said lightly, without looking back.

"So, Adams is your cousin?" Summer thought for a moment and asked, "Did he die in that accident?"

Leonardo seemed to regard it as a stupid question, and he didn't even bother to reply.

Actually, what Summer wanted to ask was the connection between Adams’ death and Vicky.

Summer thought for a while and asked in another way, "Are your cousin and my half-sister in a

romantic relationship?"

Leonardo remained mute. Walking to her, he pulled out two pages and handed them to her.

It recorded Adams’ life and the reason why she was with Vicky.

However, out of caution, Tim removed a part of Adams’ background.

Now Summer understood why Vicky hated her so much.

But it couldn't be the only reason. Perhaps the hatred had accumulated over a long period of time.

Summer looked at the thickness of the files and asked, "Have you finished all of this?"

"Yes," Leonardo replied, a sly look flashing through his eyes. He knew what she was up to.

With that, he put out his hand on the files and stared at Summer with a faint smile.

Summer intended to leave with the files and read them carefully.

However, it was clear that Leonardo was telling her by his action that he wouldn't let her take it.

Even if he agreed, he wouldn't give it to her easily.

Summer looked at him with a serious expression and said in a tone of discussion, "Since you have

finished, can I take it?"

Leonardo said something unrelated, "What are we going to eat for lunch tomorrow?"

Amazed, Summer quickly responded, "What do you want to eat?"

She couldn't help feeling surprised that Leonardo would threaten her with such a trivial matter.

She just cooked two dishes in the evening. Was it necessary for him to hold a grudge?

What a man who refused to suffer a single loss.

This also made Summer realize that not only did Leonardo look cold and unreasonable, but also he

would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.

Summer felt that her answer should satisfy Leonardo.

To her astonishment, he added, "What about the day after tomorrow?"

Summer took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "As long as I live here, I'll try my best to

cook whatever you want."

A satisfied expression appeared on Leonardo's face. Letting go of the hand on the files, he lifted his

eyelids and said, "Take them."

Now Summer was well aware that she was not match for Leonardo.

Since she had surrendered and paid her price, Summer carried away the pile of files.

When she went out, she hooked her foot to close the door.

Leonardo took out an encrypted file envelope from the other side of the file.

This file was sent by Tim earlier but was separated from other files, which highlighted the importance

and uniqueness of it.

The seal was intact.

Leonardo stared at it for a moment before opening it slowly.

Inside were a few pieces of dated papers.

The more Leonardo read, the colder his indifferent expression became.

What did Kate tell him at that time?

His mother died in an accident; his father was disabled in an accident; his grandfather became foolish

in an accident?

Interesting!

Leonardo clenched his hands and swept everything in front of him onto the ground. Countless shadows

flashed in his mind, as if something was about to come out of his chest.

A dull pain swept over his limbs and bones, and his head was splitting.

Leonardo staggered two steps and fell to the ground.

Countless people's voices and images flashed through his buzzing mind.

"Will he forget the past?"

"Don't worry...."

"Dr. Li, as long as you can do it, remuneration is not a problem."

"I am not short of money."

The scene quickly changed.

"It's useless. I planted explosives under the entire golf course. Let's find Rachel together...."

"Take good care of Rosie. Leave me alone."

Leonardo felt as if something had been stuffed into his brain, so full that it was about to explode.

He put his hand on the table and tried to stand up, but the intense discomfort weakened him....

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and a slender figure rushed into the room. "Leonardo! What

happened to you?"

Summer had just remembered that the plates were still left in Leonardo's study. Thinking that she may

stay with Leonardo for a long time, she came to take them.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw the room in a mess and Leonardo falling to the ground with

sweat all over his head.

Summer extended her hand to help Leonardo up, but failed due to his burly figure. She simply knelt on

the ground and helped him up. "Leonardo?"

Leonardo's hair was already wet with sweat. He narrowed his eyes and grabbed Summer's hand. "Who

are you?"

Summer said anxiously, "I'm Summer. What happened?"

Summer extended her hand to help Leonardo up, but failed due to his burly figure. She simply knelt on

the ground and helped him up. "Leonardo?"

Leonardo's hair was already wet with sweat. He narrowed his eyes and grabbed Summer's hand. "Who

are you?"

Summer said anxiously, "I'm Summer. What happened?"
