Chapter 2114: Meeting Again
In the bathroom, Summer turned on the shower, undressed, and lay in the bathtub, closing her eyes to soak away her fatigue. The moment of the car accident flashed through her mind... When that blinding white light came straight at her, she was completely stunned. For a second, she thought she would die and had no time to dodge. Until Spencer grabbed her arm.
The memory pulled her back to the car accident ten years ago. Another blinding white light shone into her eyes. In that moment, everything that happened that night played out in her mind like a movie... She lay back in the bathtub, her brow furrowing tightly as the scenes flashed vividly in her mind.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes wide. Staring at the steamy bathroom, she remembered the moments before that car accident... She felt sad and went to a bar... Her heart ached faintly. But the deeper she thought, the more her head throbbed painfully.
"Ah!" Summer suddenly held her head with both hands, closing her eyes tightly as she sat in the bathtub, dazed for a long time. Why did it hurt so much? The pain tugged at her heart.
In the adjacent room, Spencer picked up his tablet as soon as he got home. He sat on the couch and logged into his email. His phone was lost at the accident scene; he didn't plan to retrieve it since it was custom-made with excellent security measures.
Sure enough, there was an unread email about Rupert Brightwood. Spencer quickly opened it and carefully reviewed it, finally seeing some information he hadn't known before. Rupert Brightwood's financial transactions were irregular; every set of data was abnormal. It showed a loss when traced through his bank card transactions.
All ten cards had less than ten thousand yuan in total. Additionally, there were seven credit cards with varying amounts of debt. Spencer stared at these figures, deep in thought. Although he didn't know where the problem lay, he was certain Rupert Brightwood had issues! He could already conclude this.
However, what exactly caused these problems required further investigation. At this moment, Spencer wanted to make a call but... he had no phone! Unable to sit still, he got up and walked out of his apartment door. He came to Summer's door and knocked lightly; his arm still hurt a bit.
She shouldn't be asleep yet?
Just then, Summer had just come out of the bathroom and heard the knock. She paused slightly, thinking she misheard it. After a moment, the knock sounded again.

spaghetti straps; her hair was wet and she held a towel in her hand. By the time she realized it, he had already seen everything.
Summer blushed with nowhere to hide. "Do you need something?" she asked.
"Can I borrow your phone?" Spencer said to her. "I might have left mine at the accident scene." Summer met his gaze and felt a bit breathless. "Wait a moment," she said before closing the door.

After a while, the door reopened and Summer handed him her phone; this time she had put on a coat.
