Leonardo sounded a bit complacent as Carl listened carefully.
Carl felt that his impression of Leonardo before was too superficial. He didn't expect that Leonardo, a distant man, would like to show off.
As his friend, Carl felt that he should remind Leonardo.
"Leonardo, do you know a popular phrase on the Internet?"
"No." Obviously, Leonardo was not interested in what Carl was going to say.
In spite of his indifference, Carl continued, "It goes like this-a man will pay for ignoring his wife though he feels good now."
Leonardo asked coldly, "Does it have anything to do with me?"
Carl smelt danger and impatience. Although Carl was slow, he knew how to respond.
"No. It has nothing to do with you..." But it soon would.
Leonardo snorted. Carl did not forget his task and continued, 'TH send you Summer's address. Come over tonight."
Leonardo resolutely refused, "No!"
Carl was speechless.
Although Leonardo said that he wouldn't go there, Carl still sent him Summer's address after hanging up the phone.
Leonardo should not blame Carl for not helping after he regained his memory. Carl had done everything he could do.
Carl was amused as he imagined about Leonardo being regretful when he recovered.
He couldn't wait to see it.
Summer called Leonardo twice, but Leonardo did not answer.
At first, she thought Leonardo was in a meeting.
However, considering Leonardo's recent attitude, she felt that he might not want to answer her phone.
So she asked Carl to call Leonardo.
She kept waiting, but Carl hadn't called her back. So she guessed that Leonardo might have answered Carl's phone and was talking to him.
Although she had expected it, she was still a little upset.
It was true that Leonardo didn't want to answer her phone...
Summer leaned back and fell on the sofa.
She was a little tired these days. She also wanted to call Leonardo.
However, what he said the day before was a blow to her. He said it was just her delusion.
"Mom."
Rosie ran out of the room with a pink rabbit doll in her arms. She ran to the sofa and leaned on it. She looked at Summer eagerly, "Look at this rabbit."
Summer asked her, "Do you like it?"
She bought it when she went shopping yesterday.
Rosie nodded, "Yes."
Summer reached out and stroked her hair.
At this moment, Carl called.
Summer immediately sat up from the sofa and asked anxiously, "How is it?"
"Leonardo answered the phone, but he..."
Summer understood as she heard Carl hesitate.
"He's not coming, is he?"
"Right."
"I see. Thank you. Come to have dinner tonight. Jessica will be here too."
"Alright. I'll be there on time."
As long as there was Jessica, not to mention dinner, he would even walk into a trap.
Summer talked with him for a while before hanging up the phone.
Rosie seemed to notice that Summer was in low spirits. She said softly, "Mom..."
Summer reached out and pinched Rosie's face gently, "We're going shopping. We'll buy some meat and vegetables to cook. Auntie Jessica and others will come to dinner."
Rosie's eyes lit up, "I want meat and lollipops.
