Predestined Bride

Lynn was worried that she would go back on her word and said, “I can give you the shares at any time. I’m free today.”

Summer said, “But I’m not free today. Let’s meet tomorrow.”

She was obedient when she was in the Jarrett’s, and all her family were used to that.

Hearing her words, Lynn became impatient, “You don’t have a job now. What are you busy with?”

“Dad, do you mean that I’m lying? I’m busy now. I’ll text you the place to meet later.”

After hanging up the phone, she pondered for a moment and texted Lynn.

Lynn received the text and frowned when he saw the address.

He thought that Summer was like a yokel, but she actually decided to meet in the Golden Cauldron Club this time.

He felt bad because the club was expensive.

Summer had taken dinner with “Douglas” in the club, and she chose this place just because it was expensive.

Furthermore, the club was an upmarket club, so Lynn wouldn’t dare to play tricks.

Right now, what she needed most was a lawyer.

But she had no money to hire one.

…

These days, Carl often called Leonardo late at night to complain about his miserable life in the company.

There were indeed many things going on in the company, so Leonardo went to the company.

After holding two meetings and planning the projects, he went back home.

When he arrived at the villa, it was lunchtime. As soon as he walked in, he smelled the aroma of the food coming from the kitchen.

She was cooking?

Leonardo handed his suit to the bodyguard and strode towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Summer, who was in her apron, was standing on tiptoe to press the button of the range hood.

The range hood was a little high that she couldn’t reach it. Leonardo walked over and helped her press the button.

She turned around with no make-up on her face. She held a spatula in her right hand and looked tender.

“You’re back! The dinner will be ready soon.” She smiled at Leonardo obsequiously since she wanted him to do her a favor.

Many people wanted to please him, but only Summer’s flattery could make him happy.

But he didn’t show it and only said, “Alright.”

Then he put his hands into the pockets and stood there to watch her cook. Although he seemed to be careless, his eyes actually were fixed on her.

The sound of cooking drowned their breathing.

After finishing cooking, Summer turned around and found that “Douglas” was still in the kitchen.

“Why are you standing there?” She asked. Did he like cooking smell?

Leonardo turned around and walked out, “Nothing.”

He just thought that she was pleasing to the eye, so he stared at her for a while longer.

After the meal, Summer smiled at him, “You and Leonardo both have your own lawyers, right?”

“Yes,” Leonardo wiped his hands with a towel and asked, “Are you involved in a lawsuit?”

Summer shook her head, “No. Do you have that kind of lawyer who works on business contract? Can you ask him to help me?”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Leonardo stared at her expressionlessly, but Summer still noticed his dissatisfaction.

What was he dissatisfied with?

Leonardo expected her to make excessive requests since she had played up to him, but she only wanted a lawyer.

He was a little disappointed.

“Yes, but…” He paused for a moment and looked at her up and down.

Summer looked at herself. There was nothing wrong with her clothes, right? Or was he going to make outrageous demands?

Thinking of this, she looked at him vigilantly and crossed her hands over her chest.

Leonardo saw her reactions and wanted to laugh, but he didn’t.

He said calmly, “You have to cook in the future.”

“In the future?” Summer asked, “How long?”

“It depends on my mood.” Leonardo looked at her.

Summer agreed, “Deal!”

“Douglas” was not obliged to help her, and his request was acceptable.

Leonardo smiled and commanded, “Go and prepare some fruits for me.”

Summer was annoyed. Didn’t he say that she only needed to cook? Did he treat her as a maid?

Although she complained, she still went to prepare the fruits.

She brought a plate of fruits for Leonardo and then left.

Leonardo took a picture of the fruit plate and sent it to Carl.

Carl quickly replied, “It’s just fruit. Why are you so happy?”

Leonardo replied, “My wife made it for me.”

Carl replied with an emoji, indicating that he didn’t care.

Feeling Carl’s jealousy, Leonardo was satisfied and began to eat fruits.

…

In the afternoon, Summer went to the Golden Cauldron Club with the lawyer she borrowed from “Douglas”.

She didn’t put on make-up and just wore a white down jacket and a pair of jeans.

Ordinary people couldn’t enter the Club, but Lynn was so connected that he definitely had ways to enter the club. Summer wanted him to take her into the club.

However, when she arrived, the doorman didn’t stop her but smiled, “Welcome.”

The upmarket club was indeed different.

Summer went to Lynn’s private room.

Lynn went to the club with his lawyer, but he didn’t expect that Summer also had a lawyer.

After all, he thought Summer was stupid.

Summer sat down opposite Lynn and said, “Dad.”

At first glance, Lynn noticed that she was different from before.

She seemed more beautiful.

Although he was puzzled, he didn’t ask if she had had a plastic surgery since there were outsiders.

He said, “Hello, Summer.”

After glancing at Summer’s lawyer, he signaled to his own lawyer to rise to the occasion.

Even if Summer had a lawyer, it might be useless. Her lawyer might not be able to find the loopholes in the contract. Her money could only afford an incapable lawyer.
