His Ugly Bride novel Chapter 728

Summer's heart was hammered and her throat constricted as he spoke.

She asked, "What do you mean?"

Hearing her words, Leonardo said baldly, "I know you also want to have Rosie's custody, but

I won't give it to you."

Summer tightened her grip on her phone and said in a cold voice, "It seems we have a tacit understanding. Same as you, I won't give the custody to you."

Then, time went on without any word.

After a while, Summer heard Leonardo's deep and cold voice, "Then, see you in court."

Summer replied with one word and said firmly, "OK."

Then, she hung up the phone.

Putting her phone aside, Summer legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. She stood with her hands on the top for support.

At noon, Jessica told her that Leonardo was getting married. At that time, she still calmly mentioned Rosie's custody.

However, when Leonardo told her that he was getting married and wanted to have the custody of Rosie, Summer found it really hard to accept.

She had never thought that one day she would meet Leonardo in court fighting for the custody of Rosie.

Summer could see Rosie leaning against the coffee table, reading comic books from the kitchen entrance. She could not read very well, so she just looked at those pictures. She was pointing at books and muttering.

Looking at Rosie, Summer clenched her fists. She would never allow Rosie to live with Amber. She must fight for Rosie's custody by any means.

After Leonardo hung up the phone, he rested his elbows on the desk and clasped his hands against his forehead.

Tim knocked at the door and came in, "Mr. Emerson, aren't you going back?"

Leonardo did not raise his head. He said in a hoarse voice, "Even Rosie is not at home. I'm not going back tonight. You get back and have a rest. II

Tim could not bear to see him like this, "Mr. Emerson, do you really want to see Mrs.

Emerson in court?"

Leonardo did not say anything. After a while, he sat straight and raised his head.

His eyes were filled with emotions that Tim couldn't understand. His eyes were deep and gloomy, as if he couldn't see the edge at a glance.

"This is the last step. After this step, we can draw in the net." Leonardo's voice was still hoarse. Tim sensed a rare exhaustion in his voice.

"I think..." Tim still tried to persuade Leonardo. He thought that Leonardo did not have to shoulder all these burdens alone.

The two of them had a deep understanding of each other due to many years' companionship. Leonardo knew what he was going to say the moment he opened his mouth.

"Stop here," he interrupted. "Go back to have a rest."

Tim sighed and left.

He should have known that it was impossible to persuade Leonardo. Even if Summer was here, she might not be able to persuade him. Once Leonardo made his decision, no one would be able to persuade him.

The next day was Saturday. Summer planned to take Rosie out. Rosie still had great interest in the amusement park.

On her way, Summer made a video call with Jessica. Jessica looked sad, "I really hope I could come to hang out with you, but I have work today."
