It seemed that Lester was really angry at what she said earlier. Otherwise, he would not have let the
maid warn her while using Stanley to vent his anger.
Lester was warning her. If she made trouble again, she would end up like Stanley. He was doing this
only because he could do nothing to her for now.
When Summer realized what this was all about, she laughed, "Did Mr. Lester say that? Was he so idle
as to talk nonsense like this?"
The servant was surprised slightly and then shut her mouth.
The people outside were still attacking Stanley. Summer called out, "Are you going to beat him to
death?"
"This is none of your concern, Ms. Summer." the maid said with a poker face and pushed Summer into
the dining room.
The food looked delicious.
Summer was hungry, so she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat. However, after having only
had two mouthfuls, she slowed down. Would they really kill Stanley?
Lester had groomed Stanley in person. Although Lester treated him as a tool, it still took him a lot of
efforts.
Even though Lester hated his guts, he wouldn't let him die just like that. However, after being beaten up
like that, would Stanley live?
No matter how many horrible things he had done, it was Stanley who had saved her in the explosion on
the island. She owed him her life.
While thinking, Summer remained calm, her face betraying no emotions. She paid attention to the
commotion outside as she ate.
After a while, it became quiet.
After her meal, Summer made her way towards the door in the wheelchair.
The maid came over. "Ms. Summer, where are you going?"
"I need some air," She blurted out. It was dark outside.
The maid didn't say anything and pushed her out.
Those who had beaten Stanley had left the courtyard. They were now smoking at the entrance of the
villa, but Stanley seemed to have fainted. Summer stared at him for a long time.
At this time, someone walked over and fed Stanley water. Another man shouted, "Keep him alive."
Evidently, he was referring to Stanley.
Summer suddenly realized that Lester wanted to torture Stanley. He would make him suffer endless
torture and humiliation, but he didn't want him to die.
He knew Stanley. He knew how best to retaliate against Stanley. It would be the end of all sufferings if
they just killed Stanley now. But Lester was not that merciful.
The subordinates who were smoking saw Summer and whistled at her provocatively.
She had recovered a lot and was much better than when she was at the holiday villa. Sitting in the
wheelchair, she looked sickly but somehow attractive.
The maid warned them, "Shut up!"
Just then, Summer saw Stanley looking at her. He was in a terrible state, but his eyes were sharp.
Summer came closer and asked, "Are you alright?"
"I’ve been like this for the past few days. I'm used to it." Stanley's voice was very weak. Fortunately, the
place was quiet, so Summer heard his words clearly.
She was surprised. "For the past few days?"
Didn't she sleep for only one night? A few days had passed?
