Summer kept importunate and did the silent thing to force Leonardo to send her to the hospital.
In movies, there were often scenes of sick protagonists saying goodbye to their beloved ones. At that
time, she thought that there was no need to do so. A family wouldn't care if you were seriously ill or
view you as a burden.
However, only after Summer became disabled did she understand such an action.
She felt that she was a burden to Rosie and Leonardo. She didn't have to face Leonardo and Rosie
every day when if she was in the hospital. In that way, it would be easier for any of them.
But Leonardo refused.
In the past few days, when Summer was wandering around the courtyard, she discovered that there
were more bodyguards outside. Half of them were familiar to her and the other half were strangers.
Leonardo walked out of the house with a thin blanket in his hand. He went straight to Summer and
covered her legs with the blanket. Then he looked up at Summer and found that Summer was staring
at the door.
Leonardo touched her head and asked, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"
"I think there are more bodyguards than before." Summer looked at Leonardo and asked in a tactful
way.
Leonardo also looked at the door and said, "Some old employees have resigned, so there are new
faces."
"Is that so?" Leonardo's excuse sounded unreliable.
"Let's go back. It's too cold outside at night." Leonardo stood up and pushed Summer's wheelchair into
the room.
Leonardo pushed Summer into the study. He gently put her on the sofa so that she could read some
books to pass the time. And he sat at his desk to deal with the business.
After a while, he looked up at Summer and found that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.
Leonardo walked over to help Summer lie down. Then, he picked up the book slipped onto the ground
and placed it on the coffee table.
Leonardo squatted beside the sofa, ran his fingers through Summer's hair, and kissed her forehead
gently.
At this moment, someone opened the door. Rosie rushed in with a glass plate filled with fruit in her
arms. She looked around and found her mom on the sofa.
She ran over with the plate in her arms and asked Leonardo, "Is mom asleep? But I brought her some
fruit."
Summer's appetite was getting worse and worse. These days, she only ate porridge and fruit. Rosie
knew about that. Every time she ate fruit, she wanted to give some to Summer.
Leonardo nodded.
Disappointed, Rosie gently placed the plate on the coffee table. She was very careful and did not make
any sound.
Rosie walked to the sofa. She placed her arms on the sofa, her chin on her arms. She stared at
Summer with her dark eyes.
Looking at her mom for a while, she turned to ask Leonardo, "Dad, when will mom get better? She only
ate a little porridge tonight. She ate less than me."
Leonardo glanced at Rosie and said, "You eat too much, not your mom too little."
Rosie frowned, "Children need to eat a lot when to grow up."
Leonardo pressed his finger between Rosie's eyes. She looked pitiful with her slanted eyebrows.
Rosie shook her head, "Don't!"
She knew Leonardo was teasing her just now. She wrinkled her nose and said, "You didn't eat too
much. You both lost weight."
Leonardo sounded gentle, "Don't worry, she will recover soon."
