Predestined Bride

After returning to the villa, Summer sat by the window with her laptop in her hand. While writing, she paid attention to whether there was a car coming back from outside.

Finally, a black car drove over when it was already evening.

The driver got off the car and opened the door of the back seat. “Douglas” got off.

Summer’s eyesight was good, and she immediately recognized that the driver was Tim.

Tim was Leonardo’s assistant, but he often drove for “Douglas.”

“Douglas” got off the car and told Tim something. Tim respectfully nodded and listened.

Summer took out her phone to send a text message to Leonardo.

After sending the text message, she noticed that “Douglas” looked up in her direction. Fortunately, her curtains had been closed, revealing a slit only.

He looked over and said something to Tim, then lowered his head and took out the phone from his pocket…

It was too far. She couldn’t see clearly what he was looking at.

However, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

What Little Douglas said and all sorts of signs indicated that “Douglas” might be Leonardo, but Summer still could not believe that this was true.

She didn’t even dare to confront him.

This was too ridiculous!

“Douglas” was a very cautious person. If he was Leonardo, he would have just received her text message. In this way, it was normal for him to subconsciously look in the direction of her room when he received the text message.

In order not to arouse his suspicion, Summer changed into her home uniform, messed up her hair, and lay on the bed pretending to be asleep.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door.

“Summer.”

Summer had been in a bad mood all day. She was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep. But suddenly she heard someone calling her.

She was not very clear-headed, so she walked over and opened the door in a daze, asking, “Who is there?”

When the door opened, she finally saw that the person standing at the door was “Douglas.”

Leonardo looked her up and down and saw that she was in low spirits with narrowed eyes. He frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling bad?”

Summer suddenly woke up and said in a hoarse voice, “No, I was sleeping.”

She was dressed in a pink kitten-patterned home dress, with her long hair messy and her face flushed. She looked adorable.

Leonardo recalled that she had specially prepared lunch for him at noon, and her expression became more relaxed. Even her deep voice was mixed with a trace of inexplicable gentleness. “Then go get some sleep. When dinner is ready, I’ll tell you.”

“Okay…” Summer stared blankly at him. This was the first time she had seen such a gentle “Douglas.”

Leonardo looked at her dumbfounded expression and couldn’t help but sign. He reached out and rubbed her head randomly, pushing her into the room, saying, “Go get some sleep.”

When Summer lay back on the bed, she was still a little absent-minded.

She suddenly sat up from the bed and scratched her hair irritably.

Why did “Douglas” say something gently and she just obediently went back to bed?

She felt like she was stupid!

Summer got up from bed, opened the door and went out.

As she passed by the study, she reached out and knocked on the door, saying, “Leonardo, are you there?”

The next moment, her phone vibrated.

It was Leonardo’s message, asking, “What’s wrong?”

Summer replied, “Are you in the study?”

“Yes.”

Summer stared at the simple word “yes”. Her hand holding the phone was tightly clenched. She pursed her lips and sneered.

She stayed by the window all afternoon. There was no one else driving into the villa except Douglas’s car.

How did Leonardo get back?

From sky?

Or from underground?

Summer had an impulse, wanting to directly rush into the study and tear apart his fake mask.

No wonder Leonardo, who had never appeared in front of outsiders, was so intimate with such a “cousin”. Not only did he permit this “cousin” to live in his house, but he could also tolerate this “cousin” teasing his wife in front of him.

And there was finally a reasonable explanation of why “Douglas” took the initiative to flirt with the “ugly” her at that time.

After marrying a wife whom he had never met before, most men would want to see what the bride look like. However, he discovered that the bride did not recognize him, so he decided to go along and misled her to mistake him.

He used his identity as “cousin” to tease her just for fun.

Summer bit her lips tightly. Let’s see who the winner would be in the end!

…

While eating, Summer sat opposite Douglas, glancing at him from time to time.

When he felt that she was looking at him, she retracted her gaze and picked food for him, saying, “Eat more. You must be hungry from work.”

“Douglas” ate quietly without saying anything.

Summer knew that the most beautiful part of her body was her eyes. Jessica once said that when she was looking fixedly at a person, that man would definitely be attracted.

He seemed to be quite happy to use his identity as a “cousin” to tease Summer!

She wondered if he would still feel happy if his own wife really fell in love with this “cousin.”

However, it was not so easy to successfully attract this “Douglas.”

Normally, he would flirt with her and kiss her occasionally, but now when she took the initiative, he was as steady as a mountain and didn’t even look at her.

This made Summer somewhat discouraged.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

After dinner, “Douglas” slowly wiped his hands with a towel and said, “Why are you staring at me like this? Do you finally figure out that you actually want to be together with me?”

“Yes.” Summer was waiting for this. She said, “You look so good and treat me so well. You are much better than your cousin. Even a fool knows who to choose. I was too foolish before, but fortunately, I have figured it out now.”

After Summer finished speaking, she got up and walked behind “Douglas.” She tilted her head to kiss his face and felt his entire body stiffen. She curled her lips and whispered in his ear, “I’ll go back to my room and take a bath first…”

Her voice was deliberately soft, with a trace of flirting.

Summer wasn’t very good at doing this kind of thing. She couldn’t say such words as “I’ll wait for you tonight.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt the vibe around her become very tense, making people feel suffocated.

Was he so easy to be irritated?

Summer quickly retreated and walked out. When she arrived at the door, she even turned her head to look at “Douglas”, giving him a blink.

Douglas’s expression immediately turned gloomy.
