His Ugly Bride novel Chapter 819

"Wait a moment!"

When Septimus saw that Summer really wanted to leave, he was anxious.

He suddenly stood up and stopped Summer, "I know that you have long been disowned by the Jarretts. Although you have given birth to a daughter for Leonardo, he will not help you a lot. Whether you want a meteoric rise or something else, I think I can help you!"

Septimus called her over and beat around the bush for a long time. Now, he finally spoke frankly and said out his purpose.

At the beginning, he didn't state his purpose clearly. He just wanted to pull rank on Summer, thinking that he could use his identity to pressure Summer and made her take the first step.

However, he was wrong. Summer was not a utilitarian, and she was even calmer than him.

In the end, he led up to the subject and lost the control of the conversation.

"Mr. Thompson, do you think I will agree to your terms?" Summer turned around to look at Septimus with a faint expression.

Septimus' face darkened because Summer had no sense to appreciate his "favors".

"I hope that you'll be sensible and agree to my terms." Septimus was clearly full of confidence.

"What if I don't agree?" Summer smiled.

"You're a mother. Please show understanding for a parent's feeling." Septimus lowered his head slightly, as if he was humbly pleading with Summer.

However, his tone sounded arrogant. He was trying to force Summer to agree him.

"I am a mother, so I should learn a lesson from you. I will definitely nurture my daughter well and I won't let her end up like Amber!"

At this point, Summer felt that she and Septimus had nothing to talk about.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard Septimus threatening her. "Ms. Summer, the media has been very interested in you. Your daughter has never been exposed. I'm sure the media would be surprised if they found out that you and Leonardo have a daughter."

Septimus meant that if Summer did not agree to his terms, he would expose Rosie.

Summer was shocked, and then she said mockingly, "Mr. Thompson, I'm really scared to hearthat."

Septimus narrowed his eyes slightly, and he seemed to soften.

Summer continued, "I'm afraid, but Leonardo isn't. You're a father, so is Leonardo. If you really want to do this, then go ahead and do it. The premise is that you're willing to risk your reputation for the rest of your life."

"You..." Septimus pointed at Summer and was lost for words.

He thought that Summer was just a helpless woman, and he could threaten her easily. However, now he was threatened by Summer.

"Goodbye." Summer didn't want to talk to Septimus anymore, so she pushed open the door and went out.

She passed through the lobby of the teahouse. When she got out of the teahouse, a black car stopped at the entrance of it.

The car braked suddenly. Before it was stationary, the door to the driver's seat opened. Summer saw a tall and slender man get out of the car.

He slammed the car door and walked towards the teahouse. He looked in a hurry, as if there was anything particularly urgent. However, when he saw Summer standing at the door, he suddenly stopped.
