Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Rosie reached out to grab Leonardo's hand. Her hand was so small that she could only hold her

daddy's one finger.

Then Leonardo enclosed her small and soft hand completely with his own hand. His grip was very

gentle because he was afraid to hurt her.

Rosie held her head up high in an attempt to see her daddy's face clearly. "Daddy, you don't want to

part with mommy either, right?" she asked.

Leonardo was too tall. Rosie felt her neck slightly sore but she still didn't see his daddy's expression

clearly.

Then she gave up and leaned her head against Leonardo, muttering softly, "Mommy took me to the zoo

today. I'm so tired."

At this time, Leonardo said, "Yes."

However, Rosie already started to yawn, unaware that Leonardo was answering her previous question.

Leonardo bent down and picked her up. As he walked into the villa, he asked, "What animals are there

in the zoo?"

When Leonardo talked about the zoo, Rosie cheered up again, and answered, "There were a lot of

birds and tigers."

Leonardo added, "What kind of animal does your mother like best?"

Rosie was so tired that she put her head on Leonardo's shoulder, whispering, "Mommy said she likes

them all because the animals are cute."

Leonardo didn't speak anymore when he heard Rosie's rhythmic breath. She fell asleep.

When Summer arrived at home, she made a call to Carl. Carl was always ready to answer Summer's

phone call and this time again.

He picked up the phone quickly as soon as he knew it was Summer, "Summer, What's up?"

"I want Warren's phone number." Summer also dispensed with the small talk and went straight to her

purpose.

"Alright, I'll tell you. Do you want me to say it now or send a message later?"

"Tell me now. I'll remember it."

Then Carl gave her the phone number.

"Okay. I know," Summer said. Then Carl asked confusedly, "Why do you want Warren's number? Are

you facing any economic dispute?"

"Do you know the exact date of Leonardo's wedding?" Summer asked. Then Carl understood quickly

what she wanted to do.

"But Warren is not good at matrimonial cases." After Carl finished his words, he added, "How about I

find you some lawyers?"

"I just want to ask for some advice first and I'm not ready to file a lawsuit. Thank you for your kindness.

This is between me and Leonardo, and I want to settle it by myself. Besides, if Leonardo finds out that

you're helping me find a lawyer...."

Summer deliberately paused for a moment and Carl said hastily, "Alright. I won't help you find a lawyer.

However, if you have any problem, speak to me. You know we are friends."

"Okay." Summer knew Carl was a very nice person, especially to his friends.

Summer hung up and then tried to call Warren.

It was not seven o'clock, yet so Warren should be off from his work. But he was probably having dinner.

The connection was made but it was moments later before the other end answered.

"Who is it?" The man's voice was very clear.

Summer asked, "Is this Mr. Smith?"

Warren took a look at the phone number which was unfamiliar to him and then said, "I'm Sorry. This is

my personal number and I don't deal with business problems on it."

Summer was afraid that he would hang up the phone, so she hurriedly said, "I'm Summer Jarrett."

"Summer Jarrett?" Warren repeated, surprised. Wasn’t she Leonardo's wife? Although he made certain

rules, he did not dare to neglect her.

Warren asked, "Do you need me for something?"

"I have something to ask you."

"What?" Warren was straightforward, just like Carl.

"If I want to fight with Leonardo for custody, do I have any chance to win?"

"What?" Even though Warren had seen a lot and had dealt with many kinds of odd cases, this was the

first time that someone asked him about her chances of winning a lawsuit against Leonardo.

He had never lost a case since becoming a legal advisor to the Emerson Group. Even before joining

the Emerson Group, he had never failed.

Although he didn't deal with the case about custody, he could still help her analyze the situation.

"Summer, I just want you to evaluate the possibility. I know to win against Leonardo is very difficult,"

Summer explained when she found Warren kept silent for a long time.

Warren was still a man with principles. Since Summer asked him deliberately, he chose to tell her

frankly. "If Leonardo is determined to fight for custody with you, you have no chance to win."

Although Summer had thought of this possibility long ago, she still found it hard to accept when she

heard Warren's answer.

Summer asked again, "Is there really no chance of winning for me?"

She couldn't help hoping in her heart.

Warren perceived her eagerness in her tone. After a moment of silence, he said, "You don’t have any

chance if Leonardo insists on custody. But if he changes his mind a little, you know you still have a

chance."

The answer made no difference at all. Leonardo had clearly said on the phone that he would not give

Rosie's custody to her. Leonardo was already determined to fight with her for custody.

Summer took a deep breath and said somewhat dejectedly, "I see. Thank you, Mr. Smith."

Warren was very clear about what happened between Summer and Leonardo. He and Leonardo had

also known each other for many years, so he couldn't bear to watch them getting to this point.

He hesitated for a moment and finally said, "To win a lawsuit needs many factors and each one is

indispensable. Sometimes his strength is not the most important. This is only what I can say, Ms.

Summer."

He had hardly seen Summer this year and he just remembered that Summer smiled so brightly when

they first met. She was undoubtedly a rare beauty. What was more, she was smart and calm.

He remembered the days when he and Carl went to Leonardo's house to have meals. He somehow

missed them. He actually didn't feel sorry for Summer. He just felt a little pity.

He felt pity for the relationship between Leonardo and her and for the rough time she had experienced.

Warren's words surprised Summer. She said gratefully, "Got it. Thank you, Mr. Smith."

"Then bye!" Warren hung up the phone and felt a little depressed. He picked up his phone and called

Leonardo.

The phone was connected but there was no one answering. Then the connection was broken.

What? Leonardo hung up on him? Warren was a little upset. He was bothered by Leonardo's business

right now. How could he not answer his phone?

Warren called a few times in a row. In the end, Leonardo could not bear any more and answered the

phone.
