Very quickly, the waiter brought the manager over.

The manager's face changed as soon as he saw Summer.

The manager knew Summer was Leonardo's "ex-wife", so he knew her.

He must be very capable since he was the manager in the Golden Cauldron Club.

The manager smiled, "I didn't expect you to come, Miss Summer. If I had known it, we should have

treated you better."

Summer knew that the manager was just being polite. The Golden Cauldron Club's target customers

were rich people. Apart from Leonardo's ex-wife, Summer was just a budding writer.

There were a lot of big shots in the Golden Cauldron Club, so Summer was nothing.

The manager was polite to Summer because he wanted to avoid this turning into a whole big thing.

Usually, Summer would leave it at that.

However, she had come here to cause trouble, so she wouldn't forget about it like this.

"It's very kind of you." Summer looked up at the manager and slightly curled her lips. She didn't appear

to be arrogant but would not make people feel good either.

Summer tilted her head and said in a low voice, "Perhaps the waiter didn't make my point clear. I want

to see your boss."

The manager's face changed slightly. In the beginning, he did have the idea to quash the affair.

However, Summer wouldn't give up easily.

Many people had come to cause trouble, and the manager was experienced at dealing with it.

However, Summer was special.

Summer had been to the Golden Cauldron Club so many times, and the manager remembered her.

She was very polite, and she did not look like an unreasonable person.

The manager thought for a moment and said, "Miss Summer, you know, our boss rarely comes. After

all, he is very busy with his work. Miss Summer, you are our regular. How about we give you the best

discount for today's drinks?"

"Do I look like I cannot pay my bill?" Summer took out a black card from her bag and placed it on the

table. Her tone became much more serious.

When the manager saw the black card, he said in shock, "Miss Summer, wait a moment. I'll call the

boss."

It was a limited-edition black card she had obtained from the Emerson family.

Although only a few people had this card, every knowledgeable person knew what it looked like.

Summer withdrew the black card and said gently, "Yes, please."

The manager smiled and left with the waiter.

As soon as he left the room, the manager took out his phone and called Carl.

The nominal owner of the Golden Cauldron Club was Carl. So, the manager would contact Carl if

something happened.

Carl knew that the manager wouldn't call him unless it was hard to deal with.

He picked up the phone and asked, "What happened?"

"Mr. Carl, someone said that we sold illegal wine and insisted on meeting the boss."

"It's not the first time this has happened. You've dealt with it so many times. Why can't you handle it

now?" Carl said impatiently. "If things get tough, just call the police. We don't lack money, so we don't

need to sell illegal wine."

The manager hesitated for a moment and said, "It's Miss Summer. She doesn't lack money either."

Carl paused for a moment, then stopped what he was doing and asked, "Who is it? Miss Summer?"

"Summer Jarrett, a writer and Leonardo's ex-wife...."

Hearing this, Carl interrupted, "OK, I see. I will handle it."

As soon as he hung up the phone, Carl sprang up from his chair.

Summer went to the Golden Cauldron Club to make a mess? She even wanted to see the boss?

Wasn't she looking for Leonardo?

What were they doing?

Carl shook his head and called Leonardo.

It took a long while to get through.

"Leonardo, go take care of your wife. She's causing trouble in the Golden Cauldron Club!" Carl went

straight to the point.

Leonardo was silent for a moment and asked, "What happened?"

"Go and see for yourself. Take care of your own business." Carl finished speaking and hung up.

It had been a long time since he had the chance to hang up on Leonardo, and he felt as good as ever.

Summer waited in the room for a long time before the door was pushed open again.

When she heard it, she raised her head and saw a familiar face.

It was Leonardo. His clothes were the same color as the one he wore at the banquet. Summer knew

him well, so she knew he had changed into a new suit.

His suits were similar in style, with small difference that was hard to notice.

Summer sized up Leonardo and then looked behind him. She found that no one came with him.

So, he drove here himself.

Summer withdrew her gaze. Leonardo closed the door, walked to the sofa opposite Summer, and sat

down.

Leonardo sat opposite her with his hands on his knees. He looked indifferently at Summer and said

coldly, "Miss Summer, what's the matter? Just put it out there."

Miss Summer?

Summer clenched her teeth and suppressed the anger that was about to explode. She tried her best to

say in a calm voice, "I suspect that you are selling illegal wine."

Suddenly, Leonardo looked into Summer's eyes. His eyes were black as ink. They were so deep that

Summer could not tell how he felt. He just kept staring at her like that.

Under his gaze, Summer closed her eyes in guilt.

She took this chance to ask Leonardo over. Leonardo was very smart, so he must know what she was

thinking when he received the news.

But he still came.

Thinking of this, Summer took a deep breath and slightly raised her chin, trying to appear more

confident.

Summer glanced at the empty bottles on the table and motioned for Leonardo to look. "Do you see?

I've already drunk so much wine, but I'm not drunk at all. Even if I can handle much drink, I should have

reacted a little."

Leonardo stared at her for a few seconds, and then suddenly sneered, "Have you drunk it all?"

"Why not?" Although she felt nervous, Summer looked quite confident.

"Is that so?" Leonardo looked at her with a faint smile. He turned around and looked in the direction of

the bathroom.

Summer knew Leonardo had already seen through her tricks.

So, Summer stopped pretending and said seriously, "Leonardo! Do you know why I called you over?"
