Chapter 140
Summer hesitated when she thought of what happenedst night. Atst, she picked up. "Hello?"
"Do you have time at noon, Summer? I would like to invite you to a meal." Dean''s voice still sounded
loud and deep in a pleasant way.
"Why not? You fix the venue and call me again.” She agreed at once. She felt she owed him an
apology.
Not wanting to stay in the Valentine mansion, she headed out after telling the kitchen not to prepare her
lunch.
She met with Dean in front of a coffee shop. He was wearing a green police uniform, looking even
more upright, confidence- and awe-inspiring.
She was seeing him in uniform for the first time. And he looked not half bad at all.
"Hello, Officer Singleton." She chuckled and saluted him yfully.
Dean looked awkward. "Stop making fun of me. The weather is too cold outside. Let''s get inside."
The heating in the coffee shop was on full st.
Summer felt hot and wanted to take off her coat as soon as she walked in.
But Dean stopped her. "You are pregnant now, and your physique is different from normal days. So it is
better to keep it on."

"You are really thoughtful." She smiled and kept her coat on. They sat down in a private room. "I am
sorry.”
Dean was startled for a moment, then rubbed his hands awkwardly. "I should be the one who says
sorry. I didn''t figure out the situation and talked so recklessly. Did it frighten you?"
"You are honest and a good man, Dean. I really appreciate you." She shook her head.
"Thank you. Anyway, I still owe you an apology." Dean felt even more embarrassed now.
The woman he liked was married. He felt sad but still gave his blessing to her.
"You shouldn’t have, Dean. We can be best friends. By the way, what characteristics are you
looking for in a woman?”
Dean rubbed his hands again. "Umm... I don''t have much preference. I just follow my feelings, but we
must get along well."
Summer smiled and picked up her cell phone to call Ka. She said she wanted to meet Ka for a
coffee, and Ka agreed at once.
It did not take long before Ka arrived. She blinked her eyes when she saw Dean.
Summer cut to the chase and asked her, "How do you feel about Dean?”
"Boring.” Ka was even franker.
Summer looked at her in embarrassment. She then turned to Dean. "How do you feel about Ka?"
"Open and forthright." Dean was as honest as ever.
Summer suddenly smacked the table with her hand and looked at both Ka and Dean. "You two are a
match made in heaven. Why don''t both of you give each other a chance?"
Ka took off her coat and sat down on the sofa. She ignored Dean. "What is your rtionship with
Mark Valentine?"
There was no need to hide. She told Ka frankly, " Husband and wife."
"Really? I saw him on an inspection tour at New Haven za this morning. He is so good-looking! You
are a lucky woman, Summer." Ka looked at her with envy.
"Marriage is like a pair of shoes-only you know if they fit. A beautiful appearance does not mean that it
will befortable to wear."
Ka stared at her. "You sound like you have an ax to grind with him. He has another woman?"
"I was just saying." Summerughed.
"But having said that, marrying such an extraordinary man is indeed a worrying business. I am sure,
out there, many women are waiting to grab him. You have got to be careful."
