Telling from Leonard's tone, Tim guessed something might have happened. Without asking, Tim immediately hung up to book the ticket.
After booking the ticket, he drove to Leonard's villa. When he arrived, Leonard happened to come downstairs. Tim nodded slightly and called out, "Mr. Emerson."
Just as Leonard was about to speak, he heard a sudden movement coming from upstairs.
The carved handrails on the stairs in the villa were made of wood. There was a gap between each one. When Leonard turned around, he saw Rosie kneeling on the stairs. Holding the handrails on the stairs, through the gap in the middle, she stared at Leonard eagerly.
The weather was getting colder and colder. Normally, Rosie wouldn't wake up so early. Today was an exception.
Rosie had just woken up and was still in a daze. Lying on the armrest of the stairs, she stared downstairs with sleepy eyes. Receiving her gaze, one might soften his heart.
Tim saw that Leonard did not move, so he called out to her, "Rosie."
Rosie frowned and replied, "Yes."
When Rosie was not very clear-headed, she did not speak much.
A servant walked over. At the sight of Rosie, she was shocked. "Mr. Emerson..."
Leonard coldly glanced at the servant. "Quickly take her upstairs."
"Yes."
The servant hurriedly took Rosie upstairs and helped her get dressed. Then she brought Rosie down.
Rosie's mind was much clearer. When she was carried down by the servant, she fixed her eyes on Leonard.
Leonard reached out to her, and she spread her arms, expressing her willingness to let Leonard hug her.
Leonard carried her onto the sofa with a serious expression as if he was talking to an adult. "I need to leave home now."
Clenching her small hands, Rosie looked up at him and asked in a sweet voice, "Where are you going?"
Rosie's reaction was somewhat similar to Summer's. Leonard adjusted her slightly messy bangs and said softly, "I'll go to look for Summer. II
"Mommy!" When Rosie heard Summer's name, her eyes lit up.
Leonard replied indifferently, "Yes."
Rosie immediately said, "I want to go with you.
It had been a long time since Rosie saw Summer, and she missed Summer very much.
Leonard rejected Rosie with a serious look, "No."
"I miss Mommy!" Rosie clenched her small fist and looked at him angrily.
Leonard did not waver because of her angry appearance look. He said in a low voice, "You must be obedient at home."
Rosie pursed her lips, and her eyes were filled with tears. Tim, who was standing at the side, feel extremely distressed.
"Mr. Emerson, how about...." Before Tim could finish, Leonard flicked a cold glance at him, who then immediately shut up.
Leonard was a man of his words. He said that he wouldn't take Rosie along with him, and he
meant it.
Rosie was just a child. In the end, she couldn't help but cry loudly, "I want to see Mom. You want to see her, and me too...."
Leonard stopped talking to her and turned around to instruct the servant, "Take her upstairs. II
"I don't want to go!"
Normally, Rosie was very obedient in front of Summer. Although she was a little naughty in front of Leonard, she was a good girl most of the time. However, she had indeed inherited Summer's temperament.
Whatever Leonard said was fine, but if he didn't agree to look for Summer with Rosie, Rosie couldn't hold back any longer. She cried loudly in the arms of the servant, pounding like an angry kitten.
While crying, Rosie shouted, "Mom. I want
Mom!"
