Chapter 2153: What Can I Do for You?
He quickly snapped out of his thoughts. He had come specifically to see her; how could he possibly go to the hospital? He was just using it as an excuse to see her!
"Sorry," Spencer said softly, hastily beginning to unbutton his shirt.
Summer could clearly feel that he had changed. He now frequently said "sorry" and "excuse me," something the once rebellious Spencer never did. Even if he got into a fight, his brother would always cover for him. He used to be carefree and rarely apologized.
Of course, Spencer had only changed in front of her. But the power of love is great; he was willing to change bit by bit for her, eventually transforming completely.
At this moment, Rupert Brightwood hailed a ride and got into the car with Agnes. The car headed their way. After all, it wasn't a date, just a simple meal together. They could chat on the way back, and Rupert had already gathered the information he wanted.
"Agnes, is the compensation for your alley's demolition calculated per person?" Rupert asked with a smile. "A friend of mine lives there too; he said it's going to be demolished."Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"Yes, it will be officially demolished by the end of the year," Agnes replied.
"Have they settled on the compensation amount?" Rupert had already looked into it but asked anyway, "They haven't settled yet, right?"
"They'll start negotiating soon; the government has issued a document about it," Agnes said. "I haven't really paid much attention to it."
Rupert thought for a moment, working on his plan involving his sister. "If I marry your sister, how would the compensation be calculated then?"
"She would still get her share, right?" Agnes wasn't entirely sure.
"What if I moved in with your family? Would I be included in the count?" Rupert turned his gaze to her, half-jokingly and half-seriously asking, "Could we get an extra share?" Agnes turned to him in surprise, "..."
"I'm just kidding, just asking," Rupert laughed awkwardly, trying to cover up. "A lot of people must be thinking of doing that."
"They're negotiating the compensation now," Agnes smiled and said casually. "And they're not stupid; wouldn't that mess everything up?"
"That's what I thought too," Rupert said eagerly.
On the way home, he didn't bring up any other topics and quietly accompanied his sister. It was about a ten-minute drive to the apartment.
At Summer's house, Spencer sat on
the sofa with his shirt half-off while Summer bent over to apply medicine to his wounds. Her fingers gently touched his injuries with just the right amount of pressure-not enough to hurt him but enough for well. She

seemed like a professional, her movements extremely gentle.
For Spencer, every second at this moment was blissful. He wished time would slow down so he could spend even one more second with her.
After applying the medicine, Spencer put his shirt back on and buttoned it up. Summer tidied up the ointment on the table and put everything back into a bag. The scene was ordinary yet warm.
Spencer could sense that Summer was not in a good mood. He glanced at her from time to time and had a feeling that her heart was no longer with that other man. So she must have been conflicted during this period due to her kind nature.
He could even feel all her emotions; the documents on the coffee table about houses were stressing her out.
"Summer," Spencer called as he fastened the last button and looked up at her.
Summer turned at his voice and met his gaze.
Suppressing his heartache and speaking sincerely, he asked, "What can I do for you?"
