His Ugly Bride novel Chapter 574

Connel said he knew the news about Leonardo's mother. No matter whether it was true, it was an irresistible pull for Leonardo.

It was about something that Leonardo had to figure out.

After a while, Leonardo said, "Connel doesn't have any evidence that she is still alive."

"Connel won't say that for no reason." Although Summer didn't know Connel well enough, she felt Connel would not take action if he was not sure.

Just as she finished speaking, Leonardo immediately said, "You have to stop here. Don't worry about it anymore."

"What do you plan to do? How can you find Rosie? Connel doesn't care what you do to him! What's worse, it has been more than a week!"

Summer was too worried about Rosie.

Leonardo didn't say anything, his face darkening. He turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

He walked to the room where Connel was. Leonardo went to Connel's room and came out after a while.

Summer sat in the hall, waiting for him.

Noticing Leonardo coming out, Summer asked, "Did you get anything out of him?"

Leonardo didn't say anything and went upstairs.

Only when his shadowy form disappeared did Summer take a deep breath, pursed her lips, and lapsed into thoughtful silence.

She stayed in the hall for a long time, and Leonardo did not come down to see her.

In days gone by, Leonardo would have come down.

Leonardo was thinking about his mother, while Summer was thinking about Rosie. Each had his load on mind. They didn't have time to think about anything else.

Summer sat in the hall until midnight before getting up and leaving as if she had made up her mind.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Connel was a light sleeper, so he was awakened by the sound of the door opening.

Before he could get up, the lights in the room were turned on.

Connel stretched out to cover his eyes. When he removed his arm, he saw Summer walking towards the bedside.

There was a startled look on his face. He hadn't expected Summer to come in at this time.

Connel propped himself up, leaned against the bed, and silently stared at Summer, waiting for her to speak.

Summer walked to the bed and looked down at him. "Do you remember what you said before? Does it count?"

Connel was stunned, but soon he gave a faint smile. "Of course."

Summer said, "I have another question."

Connel looked at her and beckoned to her to continue.

"How is Rosie?" Summer asked carefully.

"You think I'm that despicable to abuse a child?" Connel smiled faintly as if he was complaining.

Hearing that, Summer relaxed a little.

She believed those words. She believed that Connel would not hurt Rosie.

Even if he didn't hurt Rosie, Rosie was too young to bear all this. She must be very scared when the strangers took her somewhere she had never been before.

Summer couldn't devote much more thought to this matter. Otherwise, she would be drowned in her remorse.

Summer took out a dagger from her pocket and handed it to Connel. "You can hold me captive. Leonardo won't do anything to you."
