Book To Read
Chapter 1216 No Casualty
Chapter 1216 No Casualty
Summer had doubts about her life, but she did not reveal her emotion in her voice. She told Leonardo
at the other end of the phone, "Come to bed after you finish your work."
Leonardo said, "Okay, you can go to bed first."
After hanging up the phone, Summer leaned against the bed, staring blankly at the room for a while.
She did not know whether she should be happy or sad.
Would Leonardo really not go to bed before finishing all six episodes? Summer was not sure. She
looked at the time and decided to wait for Leonardo.
Summer took a book on the night stand and began to read while waiting for Leonardo.
There were always books on their night stand. Sometimes they would read together for a while before
going to bed.
Summer felt sleepy after reading for a while. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
The book in her hand dropped. She was so sleepy that her head tilted. She was in a daze when she
heard Leonardo open the door.
Summer raised her head and looked at the door blearily. Leonardo met her drowsy eyes just as he
went inside the room. Surprise flashed across his face as he strode towards her. He said softly, "Why
are you still up? Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?"
Summer shook her head to stay awake, and then she asked, "Are you done?"
"Almost. There's still a little left. I can pick it up tomorrow." Seeing that she was waiting for him even
thought she was so sleepy, Leonardo said in a gentler tone.
As Summer heard that he could pick up watching the TV series tomorrow, she couldn't keep her lips
from twitching. She wondered why Leonardo could talk about it with a straight face.
Summer did not expose his lie, "Go wash up and come to sleep. I'm so sleepy."
She yawned and lay down slowly. She pulled up the blanket and closed her eyes before she slept.
She fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes. She didn't even hear the sound of Leonardo washing
up in the bathroom. And she didn't know when he came to bed.
Summer slept straight through the night. When she woke up, the man next to her was gone.
Summer scratched her head, got up, and changed her clothes. And then, she went to the study to look
for Leonardo.
When she pushed the door open, she heard lines from "Lost City 2" again.
Summer did not expect Leonardo to pick up watching the TV series in the study so early in the
morning, and Leonardo did not expect Summer to get up so early.
When their eyes met, both froze.
Summer did not know whether to be happy or not. She tried to hold back her laughter and asked him
seriously, "Mr. Emerson, you're so busy with your work."
Leonardo paused the TV series and replied with a serious look on his face, "I need to relax
occasionally."
Summer covered her lips with her hand and giggled.
Leonardo felt that his excuse was lame. Just as he wanted to say something, his phone rang.
He had to answer the phone first.
"You're up, aren't you?" It was Carl.
Leonardo answered, "Yes, I am."
"Warren is such a fool. He got himself into trouble at Golden Cauldron Club last night. He's in the
detention center now." Carl became even angrier as he spoke, "He is already a man in his thirties, not
a brat in his early twenties. He almost killed someone just because he is in love...."
Carl didn't get to the point after speaking for a long time. Leonardo interrupted him, "You're also a man
in your thirties. Why are you so garrulous now?"
Carl did not know what to say.
Leonardo said, "Did someone die?"
"No." After saying that, Carl added, "But it was close."
Leonardo directly ignored Carl's answer and said, "Since there is no casualty, it is not a big deal."
Summer came up to Leonardo when she heard him ask if someone died.
Leonardo explained to her after hanging up the phone, "Warren got himself in trouble at the Golden
Cauldron Club last night."
