Chapter 375
Maria came into the kitchen and saw Summer squatting there to clean up the floor. "Let me do this, M
s. Hart."
"It is okay. I got this. My hands are dirty anyway."
Maria knew she should not ask, but she could not help herself. "If you don''t mind me asking, why did
you and Mr. Valentine divorce, Ms. Hart?"
The two of them seemed to be a good match. Besides, they had Charlotte between them. They should
be a happy family. So why did they get divorced?
Summer’s hands froze for a second. But she quickly regained herposure. "We just divorced like
that."
Maria did not ask any further, just feeling sorry for the two of them.
Here, in the living room, Charlotte could not seem to calm down. As Mark leaned back and looked at
his documents, she straddled his chest, wriggling left and right and feeding him grapes.
Summer saw this when she emerged from the kitchen. Mark’s face sank as he read the files, as if he
found something amiss in the contract document. He put Charlotte on the settee and nced at
Summer. " You stay in the apartment with Charlotte, and I will be

back in a while."
Summer’s heart skipped a beat, as if a pebble had been thrown into the calm pool of water. Emotional
ripples spread inside her, but she just nced at him coldly, without saying a word.
She would still stay with Charlotte, even without him asking.
But the way Mark said those words sounded as if a husband were talking to his wife. It was
inappropriate for their current rtionship and situation.
After Mark left, Summer sat on the settee, only to see Charlotte ying jigsaw puzzles of My Little
Pony.
"Who bought you this?" Summer asked with curiosity.
"It was Mark." Charlotte scratched her head with one hand while looking for a suitable piece of the
puzzle with the other. "Mommy, Mark said that puzzles could improve IQ. What is IQ?"
Summer bent over, and picked up a piece of the puzzle that fell on the floor. "IQ is to be smarter."
Charlotte got the picture, blinking her eyes, and nodded. "Mommy, did Mark buy me a jigsaw puzzle
because I am stupid?”
The corners of her mouth moved. As Summer was about to speak, the door of the apartment was
pushed open, and footsteps came. She instinctively turned her head around, her brows knitted together
in an instant.
She did not expect that they would meet in this way after nearly four years.
Charlotte also looked back. Seeing that it was the grandma who camest time, she broke into a smile
and greeted her. "Hello, Granny."
Yvette did not respond. Her willow brows were raised, and her expression changed, reeking of
resentment the moment she saw Summer. "What are you doing here?"
"I am here because my daughter is here." Summer also looked at her with cold eyes. She did not really
like Yvette.
"Who are you trying to fool, Summer? Four years ago, you failed to keep your marriage to Mark. Four
yearster, you are using the child as a pawn. Do you think you can fool Mark?"
Her words sounded ridiculous to Summer''s ears. "Mrs. Valentine, stop being so opinionated. You do
not even care to find out whether it is me using the child as a pawn, or Mark trying to steal the child
from me. You are such a nuisance."
