Tim left to book a flight for Leonardo.
Leonardo glanced at the kitchen and called Carl.
"I'll hang up if you are not calling to treat me." Carl had just happened to meet Leonardo in the Golden Cauldron Club.
Leonardo had returned to take over the Emerson Group and left Golden Cauldron and Tip Top to him.
It was fine because, after all, he was also an investor and had bonuses.
But Leonardo arranged more tasks for him now. They had used to gather up often, but now Leonardo wouldn't look for him if Leonardo had no task for him.
Carl had unilaterally broken off the relation with Leonardo countless times. But Leonardo didn't care what Carl said as
Carl had always threatened him to jump off the building.
Leonardo said, "I will fly to Country M tonight. And I will be back in at least three to four days. Take care of Summer when I am not in Hoover City."
After all, Carl didn't dare to hang up Leonardo's phone.
Carl asked in surprise, "What are you doing in Country M? On a business trip?"
Leonardo said in a deep voice, "No. Just help me take care of Summer."
"Alright, alright!" Carl asked, "What exactly is it? Is it serious? Why did you ask me to take care of Summer? Is there anything you didn't tell me?"
Their relationship was very good, so Leonardo told him the most important thing, "Adams and I are half-brothers."
"What?" Carl was very excited, "What the fuck? Are you kidding me? Isn't Adams your aunt's son? Now that he's your biological brother, what about Douglas?"
Carl's thoughts were divergent.
Leonardo ignored his questions and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
"Come on. Don't be so polite. It's scaring. Besides, I will take care of Summer anyway because of Jessica..."
"OK."
Leonardo hung up the phone and looked at the report on the table. He then put his phone aside and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Summer was cutting green peppers.
Leonardo preferred food with strong flavors. Summer hadn't cooked for him many times.
Now that she had a chance to cook for him, she would try her best to satisfy his taste.
Leonardo walked lightly. He leaned against the door and watched for a while. When Summer had finished cutting the green pepper, he walked over and handed her a plate.
Just as Summer was about to turn around and get a plate, she found the plate handing over by Leonardo.
She took it and turned to look at Leonardo, "What's wrong?"
"I'm hungry," Leonardo said.
But he gazed at Summer.
"Then why do you look at me? Wait at the dining hall. It'll be ready soon," Summer said as she pushed him with her elbow.
Leonardo did not move and put his hand on her shoulder, saying, "I just want to see you." Summer was surprised. She was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Summer suddenly felt a little uneasy.
