After dinner with Carl, Leonardo returned to the villa. It was already ten o'clock in the evening.
Most of the servants and bodyguards in the villa went to the Holiday Villa with Summer. He saw the
brightly lit villa from afar, but when he returned home, he felt lonely.
A servant came up to take Leonardo's coat, "Mr. Emerson."
Leonardo waved his hand and signaled for the servant to leave. The servant did not say anything else
and silently retreated.
Leonardo put his coat on his arm and loosened his tie with the other hand. After looking around, he
found a toy of Rosie's on the sofa. He walked over and looked at the toy in his hand for a moment
before turning around and walking upstairs.
He went straight to Rosie's room and put the toy inside. After putting down the toy, he did not leave
immediately, only looking at the bed. Normally, Rosie was already asleep in bed now.
The whole family suddenly left, and Leonardo was still not used to it.
After Leonardo’s mother's accident, he had little contact with the Emersons because he was suspicious
of them. He was estranged from the Emersons for years, and they were not close anymore.
Knowing that Summer was pregnant, he had a simple thought. Summer definitely loved this child very
much. As for Rosie, at the beginning, he thought he would love whatever Summer loved.
And then? Later, he discovered that feelings between people were so subtle and difficult to explain.
The fate between parents and children was arranged by heaven.
Even if it was arranged by heaven, the connection between them could be strong or weak, and
sometimes it could be broken.
In fact, Leonardo stood in Rosie's room for half a minute before turning around and leaving. When he
closed the door, he habitually took it slow, as if Rosie was still sleeping inside.
Leonardo was stunned for a moment, and then he took out his phone and called Douglas. Douglas was
busy with something and answered the phone after a long time.
"Leonardo?"
"What took you so long?" Leonardo asked him.
Douglas paused for a moment before saying, "I was taking a bath."
Leonardo was walking during the phone call. At this moment, he was in front of his bedroom. He was
holding the door handle with one hand. Hearing this, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Put Rosie on the
phone."
"Rosie is asleep." This time, Douglas answered very quickly, as if he was afraid that Leonardo would
not believe him.
Leonardo only sneered.
Douglas immediately told the truth, "Do you have a surveillance camera here? Rosie didn't say
anything. How do you know she is beside me and awake now?"
Leonardo did not give him any explanation and only said, "Let her answer the phone."
Douglas paused again. He thought he was very calm, but Leonardo was terribly sensitive. Naturally, he
sensed Douglas' guilt.
It was relatively quiet around the Holiday Villa, and there was nothing else to do. Douglas was just
playing with Rosie at this time, so Rosie had not slept yet.
Leonardo knew Douglas too well and guessed correctly.
On the other end, Douglas put him on the speakerphone, so Rosie heard Leonardo's words.
Douglas handed the phone to Rosie. Rosie obediently lowered her head to the phone and called out,
"Dad."
As soon as Leonardo opened his mouth, his voice became a little cold, "Why do you stay up so late?"
Rosie twisted her fingers and whispered, "I'll go to sleep soon."
A five-year-old girl's voice was so soft that it made him feel sympathetic for her.
Leonardo's voice also softened slightly, "Go to bed."
"OK." Rosie paused for a moment before suddenly asking, "Dad, do you miss Mom?"
