His Ugly Bride novel Chapter 752

Summer placed the glass of water in front of Bruce and sat opposite, saying, "Now can you tell me what happened to you?"

Bruce picked up the glass and looked at

Summer. "I'll drink some water first."

Summer nodded, "Go ahead."

Bruce drank the water, looking absent-minded. After he put down the glass, he had a tense look on his face, as if he didn't know how to start.

Summer tilted her head slightly and leaned back with her arms crossed, looking calm. "Bruce, you're odd today."

"Am I?" Bruce tilted his mouth upwards at the corners, forcing a smile.

Summer felt more curious.

She looked closely at Bruce, who was wearing his usual clothes. After all, he only wore those two sets of clothes, and Summer remembered them well.

He didn't seem injured, nor did he look sad.

This was strange. Summer couldn't figure out why Bruce behaved so strange.

Bruce felt uneasy under Summer's sharp gaze. He picked up the glass and drank some water.

After that, he looked at Summer and said, "Forget it. Let's not talk about me anymore. What about you? Do you have any chance of winning the lawsuit against Leonardo?"

Summer paused and said, "The chance is slim, but I have to win."

As if he had finally found a proper topic, Bruce got much more natural. "It's a bit difficult for you to defeat him."

"I know."

"But there is still hope."

"Yes."

Bruce pursed his lips, not knowing what to say. Usually they did not talk much with each other, and Summer was getting embarrassed.

Suddenly, Bruce rose up and said, "I remember that I'm stewing soup at home. I'll go back now."

Without waiting for Summer to say anything, he ran away from her home.

When Summer looked back, she saw that the door was closed.

She was bewildered. What was wrong with Bruce?

Outside the door.

As soon as Bruce closed the door, he took out his phone and dialed a number.

The phone was answered quickly.

"Leonardo, what do you think I am? I'm a bodyguard, not a nanny. Why do you ask me to fish for information when something happens to your wife? If you ask me to do that again, I'll..."

Leonardo interrupted him, "Did she say anything?"

Bruce said grumpily, "Nothing."

Leonardo paused for a while and said, "I see."

Feeling that Leonardo was about to hang up, Bruce remembered something and asked, "Don't hang up so quickly. You know it when Summer stays up late, and you know it when she's sick. Even when she is in a bad mood, you know it as well! Did you install surveillance equipment at her home?"

Bruce had been thinking of this question for a long time, but he had either forgotten or had no time to ask him.

Leonardo did not give him any answer, hanging up the phone directly.

Bruce sneered and muttered to himself, "This pervert..." He put the phone back in his pocket and strode back to his home.

Leonardo hung up on Bruce and called Tim, "Come in."

Tim quickly came in.

"Mr. Emerson, what can I help you?"

Leonardo said, "Go check who Summer met after she left Golden Cauldron Club."

Ever since Tim found out about Leonardo's plan, Leonardo had brazenly asked him to investigate on Summer's whereabouts.

"Yes." Tim answered and turned to leave.
