Having a glance at Leonardo, Summer snorted and went to the dining room with Rosie.
Leonardo was sitting alone while Summer and Rosie were sitting opposite him.
The three of them were clearly divided into two parties.
Rosie was still well-behaved when eating. She would point out anything she wanted to eat to Summer,
asking her to pick up what she wanted.
"I want cauliflower!"
"And a chicken drumstick..."
"You can eat a chicken drumstick, but you need to have some more vegetables..."
Children don't like vegetables that much.
Summer would have to bargain with Rosie for eating greens, if she wanted her to have more.
Rosie didn't like it that much, but she still had a bite reluctantly in order to get the chicken drumstick.
Witnessing the warm interaction between the mother and daughter opposite him with cold eyes,
Leonardo looked down at the bowl in front of him and lost his appetite all of a sudden.
He put the chopsticks down on the dining table, "I'm full."
Seeing that Summer did not react, he deliberately raised his voice and repeated, "I'm full!"
How couldn’t Summer know that he had deliberately thrown the chopsticks so loudly only to attract her
attention?
She shot a glance at Leonardo, "I know, but Rosie and I haven't finished yet."
Rosie raised her head from her small bowl and said in a low voice, "I haven’t finished yet."
"Okay. Go on with your meal." Summer picked up another dish for Rosie.
Leonardo looked extremely cold, but Summer didn’t care about it at all. So he couldn't do anything to
her.
He snorted, got up and left the dining room.
Just as Leonardo left, Rosie immediately raised her head and glanced at the direction where he had
just left. Then, she looked back at Summer and said, "Dad is angry."
Summer was stunned for a moment and she did not expect Rosie to say that.
She asked Rosie curiously, "Why do you think so?"
"He ‘snorted'!" As Rosie was saying it, she shook her head and imitated the way how Leonardo
snorted.
Summer laughed out loud and couldn't help pinching Rosie's face, "How come my baby is so cute?"
Rosie raised her little head and said sweetly, "Because my mom is Summer."
Summer had taught Rosie to read her and Leonardo's names, as well as the names of Carl and
Jessica, and she remembered them all.
However, when she called Leonardo, she would habitually pronounce it as "Leonoodle".
Summer had corrected her many times, and she could pronounce it clearly sometimes. But most of the
time, she pronounced it as "Leonoodle".
Maybe she had got used to it.
As long as she knew her father's name clearly, she could pronounce it as "Leonoodle" as she wanted,
which could also be treated as a nickname she gave to her father.
After finishing their meal, Summer took Rosie to the room to take a bath and then went to bed.
She had heard from the servant that Rosie did not take a nap today.
If Rosie didn't take a nap during the day, she would go to bed extremely early at night.
She put Rosie to sleep quickly.
After that, Summer went to the master bedroom.
She pushed the door and found nobody was inside.
Leonardo wasn’t in the bedroom, so he must be still in the study.
Summer crept towards the door of the study and gently pushed the door. She saw Leonardo reading
something behind his desk.
He was frowning at the several documents in front of him, as if he was encountering a tough call.
Summer was standing at the door for a moment before she decided to close the door and leave.
Meanwhile, Leonardo sensed someone was outside the door. Looking at the door, he said sternly,
"Who is it?"
Since Summer had already been discovered anyway, she didn’t hide herself anymore and walked
straight in.
"It's me."
Seeing Summer, Leonardo's expression softened a bit.
Summer stood close to the door instead of approaching him, and said, "I'll go back to rest in the
bedroom first. It's up to you whether you want to come or not."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Leonardo was sitting at his desk, and he still couldn’t figure out what Summer meant.
They did have a quarrel on the way back, so he thought that Summer would rather sleep in Rosie’s
room tonight.
However, what Summer said meant she would sleep in the master bedroom, didn’t she?
Thinking of that, Leonardo didn't want to focus on his work any longer. After dealing with the stuff
quickly, he went back to the master bedroom.
Summer had already lain on the bed after shower.
When she heard the door open, she buried herself in the quilt and turned her back to the door.
Leonardo walked in and looked at the bed. Another quilt was on the bed.
Summer buried herself in the quilt and slept on one side of the bed, leaving more than half of the space
where there was another quilt.
Leonardo walked to the bedside and stood there for a moment. But, eventually, he turned to the
bathroom without a single word.
Summer didn’t pull the quilt down until she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
Both Leonardo and she were almost thirty years old, but the two of them hadn't matured much in their
relationship, and they always quarreled.
Sometimes, she also felt that quarreling with Leonardo was a bit childish, but it was just inevitable.
Leonardo always thought she was favoring and defending Stanley while she felt that Leonardo was
annoying her.
Summer had been trying her best to avoid Stanley, but Leonardo still thought that way. So she thought
it was his problem.
She thought for a while and checked the Twitter on her phone.
The gossip that the engagement of Leonardo and Amber was right on the corner had still been on the
hot search rankings with a high click rate.
She thought it shouldn’t have been there, but it was still there.
What was Leonardo doing in the study just now?
Summer was being indescribably frustrated and she threw her phone back.
It was Leonardo who had caused the scene, so he had to deal with it himself...
After a while, Leonardo came out of the bathroom and lay down directly beside Summer.
The two of them were lying on the same bed that night, back to back.
The next morning, when Summer woke up, Leonardo had already gone.
She habitually checked her phone and saw several unread Whatsapp messages from Jessica.
"Hurry and check the Twitter."
"A message refuting the gossip has been posted by the Emerson Group’s official account, which is
quite convincing."
And there were also two screenshots of the Twitter post.
Glancing at it, Summer quickly retreated from the Whatsapp interface and logged in Twitter.
Sure enough, the most trending hashtag was "a clarification from the Emerson Group".
She clicked the official account of the Emerson Group and the top post was with the hashtag of
Leonardo and Amber. It was quite brief, "Fake news. The CEO doesn't like women surnamed
Thompson."
The Twitter post was sent early this morning.
