Chapter 392
Summer tried to mask the worry nibbling at her edges with augh before she spoke, “So what if I’m
the butt of a few jokes for now? It’ll all blow over soon, and your brothers won’t hold it against me.”
She paused, her gaze distant, then added, “Even if you’ve returned to the Davis family, don’t forget I
also spent a good chunk of my life there. A small slip–up and I bet your folks and your brothers will
forgive me all the same.”
Summer felt let down by her foster family the night before and a sting of resentment for their
unanswered calls, but Delh eventually showed up, didn’t she? Delh remained silent, but Zach’s
late–night text, asking her to meet, spoke volumes. It was an olive branch, and Summer knew it.
She watched Mirabe, who was idly kicking a pebble at her feet, and suddenly asked, “Where did you
get that song from?”
Summer had been hoping to see a flicker of discontent on Mirabe’s face but was taken aback when
the question came. Her sharp expression froze, and after a long moment, she scrutinized Mirabe
with narrowed eyes. “You’re telling me you don’t know the origins of my song?”
“Should I?” Mirabe retorted with a half–smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.
After a brief pause, she continued slowly, “Leo’s tune had barely been penned, and someone had
already leaked theplete track online. Doesn’t that strike you as odd?”
As Mirabe’s words hung in the air, shock tightened Summer’s grip on her own arm.
The secret of Summer’s rebirth was something she dared not reveal, yet Mirabe… Mirabe wouldn’t
ask such a question if she had also been reborn. However, her expression seemed to suggest she
knew something.
For a moment, Summer was at a loss as to what Mirabe truly meant.
After a beat, Summer replied coolly, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.” She nced at her
watch, adding, “Oh, I’ve got to run. Your dear brother, Zach, wants to meet to help me sort out this
online mess.” With that, she strutted off, leaving Mirabe without a chance to respond, her pride
leading the way. Mirabe watched Summer’s retreating figure with an amused curl to her lips. No
wonder Summer hade to test her, questioning if she was the real Mirabe.

Summer left school and hailed a cab on the roadside to meet Zach at the agreed–upon spot. The
online scandal had made her life with the Gilbert family rather ufortabletely; Mandy hadn’t even
arranged for a driver to drive her about.
Twenty minutester, she arrived at a downtown restaurant known for its private dining rooms.
Expecting to see only Zach, Summer was taken aback to find Leo there too. She hesitated at the door
before approaching and sat opposite the brothers, removing her sunsses and face mask. Her voice
was low as she greeted, “Zach, Leo…”
“Don’t call me Leo,” he said, his lips tight, his tone cold.
The color drained from Summer’s face as she clenched her hands on her knees, her nails digging into
her
skin. He was so detached from Summer yet so eager to please his real sister, Mirabe. The disparity
filled Summer with an intense loathing.
Summer’s eyes reddened, and she turned her head away.
Chapter 392
Looking at his former sister, Zach felt a stir of emotion, and unlike Leo, he wasn’t quite as harsh.
Adjusting his sses on the bridge of his nose, he broke the silence, “I’ll cut to the chase. You want
Leo to clear your name publicly… It’s not impossible.”
Summer’s voice was tight with desperation. She asked directly, “What’s your condition?”
