Because Jessica was conning back, Summer was in a good mood all day.
There were a lot of things going on in the company, so Vicky didn't pick on her.
Before she got off work, Summer called Tim and told him not to pick her up, because she had an appointment with a friend for dinner.
After leaving the Jarrett Group, Summer remembered she had to cook for "Douglas".
She stood by the roadside and took out her phone to call "Douglas".
The phone was connected after a single ring.
"What is it?"
Douglas' voice was a little low, and it sounded even more inviting on the phone.
Summer was accustomed to his voice, but she was still distracted and said, "Are you going home for dinner tonight?"
"What else?" he asked.
Summer explained to him patiently, "I have an appointment with a friend for dinner tonight."
After a moment of silence, his voice faintly sounded, revealing an inexplicable chill, "Is it Jerome?"
Summer twitched the corner of her mouth. There was something wrong with this person.
"It is a girl!" Summer gritted her teeth and said, "Although I promised to cook for you, I am not your servant. I have friends."
"Douglas'" attitude softened as he said indifferently, "Fine."
Hanging up the phone, Leonardo looked up at Carl and said in a flat tone, "Were you talking about a business dinner for tonight?"
"Didn't you said you wouldn't go?" Carl looked at him in surprise. Normally, Leonardo didn't care for such things.
Warren knew what was going on and interrupted, "Because his wife is not eating at home tonight."
"You are a blabbermouth." Leonardo glanced at Warren, and Warren quietly turned around and left.
When Summer arrived at the Golden Cauldron Club, she did not see Jessica.
Just as she was about to call Jessica, a closely wrapped woman walked over.
Summer asked tentatively, "Jessica?"
Jessica moved her sunglasses a little and looked around nervously. "It's me."
Then she dragged Summer towards the door and asked her, "Can you enter?" Jessica naturally knew that the Golden Cauldron Club was one of the best high-end clubs in Hoover City, which paid great attention to privacy, so it was hard to get into.
Summer nodded. "Yes. I have eaten here."
They arrived at the door. When the doorman saw Summer, he shouted "welcome" louder than usual, extremely enthusiastic.
Entering, Jessica took off her sunglasses and scarf that had covered half of her face. She carefully sized up Summer and said, "I just went to shoot a scene. And now you looked so different."
They were friends for many years, but most of the time, Summer was "ugly" and Jessica was used to it.
The last time Jessica returned to the crew, although Summer didn't pretend to be ugly, she thought Summer was just being normal. But now Summer was glowing.
They entered the elevator and Summer checked herself in the elevator wall. "I don't think I look different."
Jessica stood beside her and said, "You should be an actress, too. Perhaps you will be more popular than me."
"This industry is so messed up. I don't want to be a part of it."
They found their seats and ordered.
Summer got up and went to the bathroom.
