Summer had been waiting for Leonardo in the hotel room.
She didn't get any news of Leonardo, but got to know someone dispatched by Carl lost track of
Douglas.
"How could you lose track of him?" Summer was a little uneasy about this news.
"Don't worry. I'll send someone to look for him right now. It can't be that bad."
Although Carl was comforting Summer, he realized Douglas was probably keeping something from
them.
At this time, a voice came from the TV, "Here is the latest news. A villa in the suburbs burst into
flames..."
Summer glanced up at the TV. One sees this kind of news every day, so she didn't spare much
attention for it, only picking up the remote control to turn the volume down.
She called Leonardo and Douglas again, but no one answered.
"I'm going to look for Douglas." She was more worried about Douglas than Leonardo who she believed
had the ability to take good care of himself.
Although Douglas had become mature over the past two years, he was still young. He wasn't able to
handle things like Leonardo.
Moreover, it was at this juncture...
"You're crazy! How can you find him?" Jessica rejected.
Summer looked down at her legs and said in frustration, "If only my legs were good now."
Carl suggested, "Are you hungry? How about eating something first?"
Summer shook her head. She wasn't in the mood to eat anything.
Time went by. The closer it got to dinner time, the more anxious she became.
But on second thought, she felt it not good to make Jessica and Carl anxious with her. So she said,
"Let's go to the dining hall to eat something first."
"Alright!" Carl was tired after staying in the room for the whole afternoon. Anyway, they weren't out of
the hotel, just going to the hall.
Jessica knew what Summer was thinking about and agreed, but she still couldn't help but glance at
Carl and said, "What else do you know except eating?"
Carl retorted, "Food is the first necessity of the human kind."
Jessica didn't bother to give him a response. Then Summer left for the restaurant with them.
After seated, Carl and Jessica were talking about what to order. Suddenly Summer's phone rang.
Summer felt surprised and thought it was from Leonardo or Douglas. But it was an unfamiliar number
on the screen.
"Summer," from the phone a hoarse and strange voice came. Obviously, the caller was using a voice
changer.
"Who are you?" Summer sounded very vigilant, attracting Carl's attention.
Carl stopped ordering instantly, lifted his eyes from the order and patted Summer's arm, indicating her
putting the caller on speakerphone.
Only they three people were in the private room, so Summer did as Carl said without hesitation.
"If you want to see Douglas alive, do as I say." Then the caller hung up.
Upon hearing Douglas, Summer's countenance suddenly changed, "Hello? What did you do to him?"
However, the caller had hung up, without any response to her.
Putting down her phone, Summer muttered, "I knew something would happen."
"Summer, calm down." Jessica was a little worried. She knew Summer got along well with Douglas.
Summer shook her head and forced a smile, "I won't do anything stupid."
Jessica did not believe her and winked at Carl. Carl got it very tacitly and snatched the phone from
Summer's hand, "Leave this to us."
