Summer walked out faster.

As she hurriedly walked out with her head down, she didn't notice that someone else was also walking

out on the other side, thus she collided with the man.

Summer said without raising her head, "Sorry."

"Summer?"

When Summer heard this voice, she suddenly stopped. Looking back, she found it was Stanley. He

was everywhere!

Stanley saw her turn around and looked at him, he smiled and asked, "You are here for lunch?"

Summer looked at Stanley. He had just come out of the restaurant.

"Don't you know whether I'm here for lunch or not?" Since Stanley was also in the restaurant just now,

he must know what she did in the restaurant.

Stanley must have seen her sitting opposite Leonardo and Amber.

Since Summer had already said this, Stanley no longer pretended to meet her by chance.

He walked over to Summer and said with a smile, "Yes, I saw it all. Do you believe me now? You and

Leonardo are not right for each other."

Summer was already in a bad mood, and this was not the first time Stanley said this.

She snorted coldly, "None of your business." Then she strode towards the parking lot.

Stanley stood there and watched Summer drive away. He lit a cigarette with an undiminishing smile on

his face, obviously savoring something.

He stood at the door and finished the cigarette, and then went back to the restaurant. Stanley looked at

where Leonardo and Amber were sitting. With a faint smile, he threw the cigarette into the trash can,

and leisurely walked in their direction.

The plates in front of Amber and Leonardo had already been removed, and there was coffee in front of

them. Amber had been talking. Leonardo propped his head up and looked out of the window, whether

his mind was on Amber's words or somewhere else, no one knew.

Stanley walked over and stopped at the table, smiling and asking, "Do you mind if I sit down?"

Leonardo didn't pay any attention to him, but Amber asked impatiently, "Who are you?"

She finally had a chance to eat with Leonardo, so why was there always someone disturbing them?

Stanley sat down, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two of them, and then he deepened

his smile, "I am Mr. Emerson's friend."

Hearing this, Amber turned to look at Leonardo. Meanwhile, Leonardo was still looking out of the

window, blankly at usual.

Amber whispered, "Leonardo." Only then did Leonardo turn around. He looked at Stanley coldly and

did not say anything. He just looked down at the watch on his wrist, stood up and said to Amber, "It's

getting late. Let's go."

Amber saw that Leonardo did not pay attention to Stanley, so she stood up and intended to leave with

Leonardo.

However, when she stood up, she accidentally knocked over the coffee cup. Fortunately, Leonardo was

responsive enough to grab her shoulder and pulled her back. Otherwise, the coffee would have spilled

on her.

Coffee dripped down the table by the edge, and Amber turned to look at Leonardo with a shy smile.

Leonardo expressionlessly looked at Stanley and left with Amber in his arms. Stanley looked at the

back of the two and his smile deepened even more.

As soon as Leonard left the restaurant, he withdrew his hand that was holding Amber's shoulder. He

did it so fast that Amber realized what Leonard had done back there was just a show.

Thinking of this, Amber felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Leonardo with dissatisfaction.

Leonardo didn't look at her at all and made a call, "I will ask Tim to send you back."

Hearing what he said, the dissatisfaction disappeared again. Amber smiled and was ready to hug

Leonardo, "Thank you."

However, Amber hugged nothing because Leonardo took a step to the side.

Amber looked at Leonardo furiously and found that he was only having a phone call. Therefore, she

could only put away her ill feelings.

Leonardo had been very kind to her recently. He was considerate and would give her whatever she

asked for. Leonardo's attitude towards Summer today convinced her even more that that he liked her.

As long as Leonardo liked her, nothing else would be a problem.

Soon, Tim drove over. Amber reluctantly got on the car. When the car left, Leonardo didn't even look at

it and directly went back to the Emerson Group.

After Summer left the restaurant, she drove around aimlessly. She didn't know what she wanted to do.

Until she almost ran out of gasoline, she called Jessica when she was at the gas station.

"Are you busy? Come out for a drink?"

When Jessica heard Summer's voice, she felt that something was wrong. Jessica immediately asked,

"What's wrong? Where are you?"

Summer turned around and found that she didn't know where she was. She asked Jessica, "Where are

you? I'll come to you."

Jessica was currently in the company. After refueling, Summer drove to Tip Top Media to find her.

Tip Top Media was the biggest company in the entertainment industry, and people in the business sure

knew what was going on and who were making the headlines.

As soon as Summer arrived at Tip Top Media Company, she was recognized by the receptionist.

"Who is Ms. Summer looking for? Do you have an appointment?" The receptionist was polite to

Summer.

Summer was a scriptwriter that had started to make her presence. She might become a sensation one

day. Everything was possible in this industry. Therefore, it was best not to offend her.

"I'm looking for Jessica." Summer wasn't surprised that the receptionist would take her seriously.

"Miss Jessica..." The receptionist glanced at the other side and saw Jessica's assistant, "Her assistant

is here."

The assistant walked over and looked at the receptionist. "I will take her up."

When Summer entered the elevator, the assistant explained to her, "Jessica was just called to a

meeting. I'll take you up."

Summer went up and waited for a while before Jessica joined her.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you want to drink again?" Jessica sat down beside Summer, leaned

over and asked her.

Summer said indifferently, "I am upset. When I'm upset, I want to drink."

"Alright, wait for me. I'll get my purse." As Jessica spoke, she got up to collect her stuff.

When the two of them got down, they met Carl at the entrance of the elevator.

"Summer?" Carl was shocked, "Why don't you come to see me since you are at the company? You

should have made a call."

"I'm here for Jessica. There's nothing else." Summer discovered that Carl and Jessica weren't talking to

each other.

Carl patted Summer on the shoulder enthusiastically, "Alright, come find me next time."

Summer replied, "OK."
