Summer pursed her lips and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll find it out by myself."
Eliza was speechless, "Alright. But you can't keep thinking about these things. You have to finish the
script!"
Summer fixed her hair and said, "I'll finish it before the new year."
Eliza's eyes lit up, "Great! I'll tell you Amber's address right now!"
After getting Amber's address, Summer returned to her apartment.
It was still early. She wrote the script for two hours, adjusting the plot, then she went to Leonardo's
place to see Rosie.
She saw Kate when she arrived at the Emerson's villa.
Kate's condition was even worse now.
"Are you here for Rosie?" Kate was quick-minded. She knew Summer's purpose the moment she
entered the house.
Last time, Summer said some unpleasant words to Kate, so they didn't have much to talk about.
Summer just replied coldly, "Yes."
As Summer walked upstairs, she felt Kate was looking at her.
When she reached the corner, Kate called her name, "Summer."
Summer turned to look at her and signaled for her to finish her words.
Kate paused for a moment before saying, "Can I talk to you later?"
Kate looked very calm. Summer could not tell what the conversation would be about.
She felt it might be related to Leonardo.
Summer hesitated for a few seconds, and then she nodded in agreement.
Kate gave her a grateful smile.
Summer had lived in this villa for a long time, so she was familiar with its layout. She could go to
Leonardo's and Rosie's rooms even with her eyes closed.
When she passed Leonardo's study, Summer couldn't help slowing down. But she did not stop and
directly walked to Rosie's room.
When Summer pushed open the door, Rosie was painting on the desk.
Rosie heard the door opening. She looked behind liked a frightened rabbit, her eyes filled with panic.
Summer did not walk over. She said gently, "Rosie, it's Mommy."
Rosie stared at her for a while, and the panic in her eyes gradually disappeared.
Only then did Summer approach her.
"What are you doing?" Summer looked at the painting board in Rosie's hand and found that she was
painting an apple, which was quite vivid.
Summer remembered that Rosie wasn't serious with painting before the accident. She would draw all
sorts of lines and put them together randomly to make out a shape barely legible.
However, the apple that Rosie just painted was in a good shape.
Rosie noticed that Summer was looking at the painting, so she pushed the board slightly to Summer.
Summer noticed her subtle movement.
Summer was overjoyed and surprised, "It's okay. I can see it from here. Can you paint another one for
Mommy?"
Rosie nodded and picked up the pencil.
She looked extremely solemn while painting. Her small face was filled with seriousness, and she stared
at the board without blinking her dark eyes.
Summer was touched, and reached out her hand and gently stroked Rosie's head.
Rosie suddenly looked at her, frowned. Only then did Summer remember that Rosie didn't like to be
touched now. Her hand stiffened. When she was about to withdraw her hand, Rosie said, "Painting!"
Painting?
'Does she mean that I should not disturb her while she is painting?'
Summer withdrew her hand and asked tentatively, "Can I hug you when you finish it?"
Rosie nodded.
Summer felt relieved and smiled.
After Rosie finished painting, she did let Summer hug her.
Not long after that, Rosie fell asleep.
Summer put her on the bed and tucked her in. Then she went out to see Kate.
Kate was waiting for her.
They went to the living room.
The heat was on and hot tea was served.
Summer and Kate sat face to face. She handed a cup of tea to Summer and said, "Have some tea."
Summer took it, "If you have something to say, just say it now."
Kate did not beat around the bush, and directly asked, "What happened to you and Leonardo? Why did
you suddenly move out?"
"People get together when they feel they meet the right person. And they will break up when they can't
work things out. It's natural." Summer lowered her eyes and stared at the floating tea leaves in the cup.
"It's true for other people, but not for you and Leonardo." Kate shook her head and said meaningfully,
"Didn't you notice? Leonardo never changes the brands of the things he uses. He is a focused and
loyal person."
Summer's body tensed up. She twitched her lips and smiled faintly, "Amber is pretty and graceful. She
is a perfect match for him, isn't she?"
Kate was a little angry at Summer's words. As Leonardo's elder sister, she said in a serious tone,
"Summer, Leonardo is just confused. You can't be like him."
However, Summer was thinking about something else. She didn't say anything and just stared at Kate,
looking her up and down.
"What are you doing?" Kate was a little uncomfortable with her gaze.
"If you had more concerns for Leonardo when he was a child, he wouldn't have been so paranoid." As
Summer finished, Kate's expression changed.
"I am not blaming you on behalf of Leonardo. After all, I am an outsider." Summer took a deep breath
and said, "I spent more time with him than you did. I know that this time, Leonardo really wants to
break up with me."
Kate was silent for a while, and then frowned slightly, "But I think he still loves you. He wouldn't return
home until late these days. Sometimes I got up in the middle of the night, and the lights in his study
were still on."
Summer was surprised. She lowered her head to avoid Kate’s gaze and said, "It has nothing to do with
me."
Hearing his name would shake her determination.
However, she had not forgotten a single word that Leonardo had said.
This time, Leonardo was more resolved than ever.
It was all of sudden. For several days, Summer tried to stay calm. She came up with the idea to sit
down and had a talk last night.
Leonardo was smart. He must know what she meant, but what he said broke her heart...
She could tell that Leonardo didn't want to talk to her.
A devoted person tended to be resolute when he wanted to end a relationship.
Summer was so indifferent that Kate didn't know how to persuade her.
"I don't have much time left. I've done too many foolish things in the past. Now I just want Leonardo to
be happy." Kate smiled self-deprecatingly, "However, there is no turning back. You did something, and
made a mistake. And you couldn't change it."
