Predestined Bride

Chapter 195 Sleepyhead



The more Summer thought about it, the more she felt that she was right.

If someone else had said that they hadn’t found out, Summer would have believed it, but Leonardo must lie about it.

Leonardo was truly confident from the bottom of his heart.

The moment this thought popped up, she couldn’t stop it anymore.

Summer had been thinking about it all day.

As soon as she got off work, she hurriedly went home, wanting intending to talk to Leonardo about this matter.

However, when she returned home, Leonardo hadn’t returned yet.

It was already seven o’clock when dinner was ready, but Leonardo hadn’t returned yet.

It was time for dinner, and Ava advised Summer, “Mrs. Emerson, maybe you should have dinner first. Mr. Emerson may be back late.”

“It’s okay. I’ll wait for him.”

On his first day at the Emerson Group, Leonardo would definitely be very busy. This was normal.

After waiting for a while, Leonardo hadn’t returned yet, so Summer wanted to call Leonardo.

However, just as she took out her phone, her phone rang.

She looked at her phone and saw that it was Leonardo calling.

Summer answered the phone and asked him, “When will you be back?”

“I just finished a meeting. I might be back very late tonight. You go to bed first. Don’t wait for me,” Leonardo said in a slightly low voice. He sounded gentle but tired.

The meeting was too long for him to notice that it was already so late.

As soon as the meeting was over, he called Summer immediately.

“I see…”

Recently, although she and Leonardo did not go to work together, they still went out together in the morning and came back home together in the evening.

Right now, Summer was still not used to being alone in an empty room.

After dinner, she went back to her room and wrote the manuscript on her laptop.

She wrote the manuscript, keeping an eye on the sound of cars outside.

However, she was too tired after a day’s work and soon fell asleep on the bed.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Then Leonardo returned.

The room was well heated. Leonardo walked into the bedroom and saw Summer sleeping on the bed with her head tilted.

Her hands were still on the keyboard of the laptop. Her bangs curled up and her hair was on the bead.

Leonardo walked over gently and pulled out the laptop under Summer’s hand.

Although his movements were very gentle, Summer didn’t sleep deep and was still awakened by him.

Summer opened her eyes. She was still not clear-headed. Looking at the person in front of her, she said in a daze, “You’re back.?”

She had leaned against the bed and slept for too long. When she moved, her body tilted and was about to fall onto the bed.

Leonardo quickly reached out to hold her head and put the other hand around her waist. He said in a low voice, “Yes, you can sleep now.”

Hearing this, Summer really fell asleep again.

It only took her ten seconds to fall sleep since she lay back in bed.

Leonardo looked at her peaceful face and was stunned for a moment. He could not help but pinch her nose and mutter, “Little sleepyhead.”

He went to the bathroom to wash up before lying on the bed. Summer, who was already asleep, seemed to be conscious and moved into Leonardo’s embrace.

Seeing this, Leonardo’s eyes were gentle as he hugged her tightly in his arms and soon fell asleep.

The next day.

When Summer opened her eyes, she subconsciously reached out to grope around.

But Leonardo was not there.

She sat up quickly.

Leonardo didn’t come back last night?

No, He seemed to have come back…

Summer turned her head and looked at the laptop on the sofa.

She remembered that Leonardo had returned last night and helped her switch off her laptop.

But where was him? Had he left now?

Summer got out of bed, grabbed a coat, and ran downstairs with her slippers.

When she ran to the first floor, she saw Leonardo dressed in formal clothes walking towards the door.

She called him, “Leonardo.”

Hearing this, Leonardo turned around but only glanced at her and frowned slightly, “Go back and change clothes. I’ll go to the company now.”

“Okay,” Summer subconsciously replied and saw Leonardo turn around and walk out.

She opened her mouth but didn’t say anything in the end.

Only when Leonardo disappeared did she go back to the bedroom to get changed.

Leonardo started to get particularly busy.

He was so busy that he didn’t even have time to have breakfast with Summer. When she woke up in the morning, usually he had already left or was about to leave.

When she came back at night, Leonardo was still working overtime at the company. When he came back, Summer was either asleep or awake in the next morning.

A week passed like this.

Summer thought that Leonardo would have a rest for the weekend. However, when she woke up early on the weekend, she saw that Leonardo had been dressed in suit. He looked dignified and energetic.

Leonardo seemed to have endless energy. He was so busy for a week, yet he still looked so energetic.

Summer picked up her phone and saw her exhausted face in the reflection of the screen.

She went to work later than Leonardo, and got off work earlier than Leonardo, but she looked even more tired than Leonardo.

If she hadn’t been with Leonardo for so long, she would have doubted if Leonardo was a real human.

“I’m going to the company immediately. You could continue sleeping.” When Leonardo heard her, he turned around to look at her and lowered his head to tidy up his cufflinks.

Today his cufflinks seemed to be against him and he couldn’t button it up.

Summer lifted the quilt and sat up. Her voice was gentle and soft for she had just woken up. “Come here.”

Leonardo walked over and sat down beside the bed. He stretched out his arm in front of Summer and handed her the cufflinks.

He lowered his head and looked at Summer’s slender white fingers pinching the dark shirt sleeves. After helping him put on the cufflinks, she even tidied up his suit.

His lowered his head to kiss Summer’s forehead. “The New Year is approaching, so I should be able to relax after several days.”

Summer fell silent for a moment and asked him, “Does the Emerson Group have so many things to do?”

“Yes, a lot of things.” Leonardo’s voice was filled with exhaustion.

After that, they fell silent.

Summer thought of something and said, “Did you know that Adams is back?”

Leonardo’s expression slightly froze as he narrowed his eyes, “When did he come back?”

“He’s been back for a few days. He even said that he wanted to have dinner with us.” This was indeed what Summer wanted to tell Leonardo.

Leonardo pondered for a moment. “I’ll get off work earlier tomorrow and ask Adams to eat in Golden Cauldron Club.”

“Okay.” Summer nodded, her eyes flashing with joy.

She could finally have dinner with Leonardo!
