Actually, after being rescued from the fire by Leonardo, Rosie seldom took the initiative to talk with
others, except for a few people. And Tim was one of them.
It was not strange that Rosie was close to Tim. Leonardo had been indifferent, even when
communicating with Rosie, his daughter.
Tim was different from him. Although he was strict at work, being a father himself, he was patient and
gentle with children. Besides, Tim had been by Rosie's side since she was born. As Rosie grew up
suffering a lot, Tim felt sorry for her and was extremely kind to her.
He put on a warm smile at Rosie and took out a lollipop from his pocket as if performing a conjuring
trick. Then, he handed it to her.
Rosie looked up at Summer. Summer nodded, indicating that she could take it.
Tim didn't look away from Rosie until she took the lollipop. Then, he turned to Summer and said
respectfully, "I'm waiting for you here under Mr. Emerson's order. Let's go."
Summer reached out to tuck her hair behind her ear and looked at Tim with a faint smile, "I know the
way. Leonardo doesn't need to do it."
"Ms. Summer, you think too much. With Rosie, you probably will have hard times going out. Mr.
Emerson is afraid that you may need help," Tim explained in a decent way.
Summer knew that no matter what she said, Tim was able to respond. Working for Leonardo, Tim
naturally was shrewd. Summer said with a smile, as if she took a tumble, "It turns out that Leonardo is
worried about Rosie."
Tim sighed, "Ms. Summer, please follow me."
Summer walked behind Tim with Rosie. After a while, she realized that Tim led them to Leonardo's
private elevator at the entrance of the parking lot, rather than the company's gate.
How thoughtful Leonardo was! Was he afraid that others would see her and Rosie enter the Emerson
Group? He must have been worried about the rumors.
Summer gave a mocking smile. As a man, when Leonardo changed, he was even more careful than
women.
The floor number in the elevator kept changing until after they arrived.
After getting out of the elevator, Summer sneered, "Isn't Leonardo busy lately? Why does he come to
such a small project himself?"
"Mr. Emerson is responsible for every project," Tim said seriously. If Summer did not know Leonardo
well, she probably would believe Tim.
No matter what happened, Tim would back up Leonardo all the time. Even though Summer asked
further, she was unable to get any information from Tim.
Tim led Summer to Leonardo's office. He knocked on the door, "Mr. Emerson, Ms. Summer is here."
"Come in." Summer's heartbeat quickened as there came Leonardo's deep voice from inside.
Only then did Tim open the door and make way for Summer. Why did they sign the contract in
Leonardo's office? Summer found him strange recently.
Summer entered the office with Rosie. Leonardo sat at his desk and flipped through a document.
Summer wondered what he was reading.
Holding Rosie's hand, Summer went to Leonardo. Only then did he look up at Summer.
"I will take care of Rosie, and you can go and have a negotiation with my employees about the
contract. When you are done, come over and take Rosie away," Leonardo said in a cold voice. It
seemed that Summer was a stranger to him, and he even didn't cast a glance at her.
Summer was shocked. It turned out that Leonardo only cared about Rosie. Obviously, he had asked
Tim to wait for them merely because of Rosie.
It was her fault flattering herself. Perhaps it was because Leonardo had placed her in top priority and
been considerate to her. She failed to get used to his change until now.
Summer pursed her lips and let out a sigh of relief, "Alright."
After that, she squatted down and talked to Rosie for a while before turning around and leaving.
After Summer left, Rosie tried hard to sit opposite Leonardo. She was so small that she had to put into
more efforts to look up at Leonardo.
Just as Leonardo raised his head, he looked into Rosie's eyes, which were similar to his.
Leonardo put down the document and stretched out. Not as indifferent as when he was talking with
Summer, he asked in a soft voice, "Are you thirsty?"
Rosie shook his head and sat on the chair looking at him without saying a word.
Then, she took out the candy Tim had given from her pocket and handed it to Leonardo. She wanted
Leonardo to open it for her.
To her surprise, Leonardo directly locked the candy in a drawer after taking it.
Seeing Leonardo did so, Rosie opened her eyes wide and stood up from the chair angrily. She pointed
at the drawer and said, "Candy!"
"Bring in some hot milk and biscuits," Leonardo called the secretary.
Rosie had a sweet tooth. However, because of her tooth decay, Leonardo had forbidden her to eat
candy.
Not long after, the secretary came in with a tray of hot milk and biscuits. Since she was a newcomer,
she had never seen Rosie. She looked at the little girl on the chair, who took after Leonardo, with
surprise.
Leaning against the back of the chair, Leonardo stared at Rosie with his arms crossed. But he did not
miss the secretary's expression.
He frowned slightly. As there were two secretaries on maternity leaves, a new secretary was recruited.
But Leonardo didn't like a fussy person like her.
The secretary noticed Leonardo's gaze, so she hurriedly placed the food on the table one by one.
All of a sudden, Leonardo spoke, "Are you a new intern?"
In fact, the Emerson Group didn't hire secretaries to the president frequently. And only a few people in
the secretarial pool Leonardo trusted could get close to him.
She pulled a few strings and finally made her way to the Emerson Group. Of course, she wished that
something could happen between her and Leonardo.
He was a young, promising and handsome president, while she was an intern secretary. It sounded like
an attracting romantic story. The intern secretary blushed and said, "Yes, I'm the new assistant. My
name is Alice Brook."
"Did I ask your name?" Leonardo asked in a colder voice. Alice couldn't help but begin to feel horrified.
Although she had heard from others that Leonardo was indifferent, she thought she was unique as he
had taken the initiative to talk with her....
"I...." Alice hesitated. She was so scared that she couldn't say anything. Because of that, she looked
pitiful.
Leonardo became more upset and said, "Get out!"
In a hurry, Alice turned around and left.
After the door was closed, Leonardo turned to look at Rosie with a warm face. He put the milk and
biscuits in front of Rosie and said, "Eat."
