Leonardo wanted to hang up the phone. Summer often woke up in the middle of the night to drink water, so he would also wake up in the middle of the night. However, he forgot to pour a glass of water last night. He woke up tonight to get some water for Summer, then he received a call from Carl.
According to his usual experience, Jessica was about to wake up by now.
However, Carl's tone sounded a little miserable.
"Wait for me a second." Leonardo still decided to comfort Carl, but he had to put the water back in his bedroom first.
Leonardo gently placed the water on the bedside. Summer opened her eyes and saw that he was holding his phone in his hand. The screen of the phone was still lit. She asked,
"Why are you making a phone call in the middle of the night?"
Leonardo said gently, "It's Carl."
Summer was stunned for a moment, and she looked at Leonardo with questioning eyes.
Leonardo handed her the water and said, "Drink some water and keep sleeping. I'll be back in a moment."
So there was nothing serious.
Summer nodded in relief.
Walking outside, Leonardo asked Carl, "When did Jessica come back?"
Carl could clearly hear Leonardo's conversation with Summer in the bedroom just now. It didn't sound special, but Carl felt especially envious.
Carl extinguished the cigarette in his hand, "Tonight."
"How many people are watching Jessica now? What good is it for her to walk with you in the middle of the night?"
Carl seriously thought about Leonardo's words, and Leonardo had come to the conclusion, "You are being unreasonable."
Carl said loudly, "What did you say? Are you my best friend?"
Leonardo said, "I said you are being unreasonable."
Carl was speechless for a moment and whispered, "I just miss her too much."
Leonardo's tone softened, "Then don't cause her any trouble. Get rid of Sivan as soon as possible."
Carl simply sat on the ground and said, "I know. You know everything."
