Chapter 427


    The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, and the water was flowing down the


    window. Momentster, they reached the residential area.


    The car was not allowed to stop at the entrance to the stairs in the residential area, so it could only stop


    at the entrance by the flower bed, which was still some distance from the entrance to the stairs.


    He took off his ck trench coat, turned to Summer and handed it to her. "Put it on."


    Summer nced at him and, without reaching for it, she took off her coat, picked Charlotte up from the


    passenger seat and covered her up.


    Then she opened the door and got out of the car. As she was getting out of the car, Mark got out of the


    car and grabbed her wrist. Then he wrapped the trench coat around her and Charlotte before letting go.


    "Thank you." Summer was polite yet distant.


    His eyebrows moved slightly but he did not speak. He stood and watched her and Charlotte disappear


    from sight, then casually wiped the water off his face and entered the car.


    He was already wet, and his shirt waspletely soaked in rain water and clung to his skin, showing


    his strong, muscr chest.


    Even his suit pants were dripping. He squeezed the water out of his suit pants and leaned back, his tall


    body slumped in his seat.


    Staring grimly at the lighted window, he picked up a cigarette between his fingers and lighted it up, his


    left eye slightly narrowed by the smoke curling upward.


    One cigarette after another, and in a few moments the cigarette butts almost filled the ashtray.


    In the room


    Charlotte did not get wet at all, and Summer only got a little wet, but the ck trench coat on her was


    soaked through.


    After saying goodnight to Dean, Charlotte fell asleep. Summer took a look at the trench coat, and went


    to the bathroom. After she showered, she washed the trench coat.


    The trench coat was wet, so she took it to the balcony and hung it up.


    When she returned to her room, Charlotte was sleeping soundly. Tomorrow was Saturday and there


    was no ss. She seemed to remember something, looked up the date of the invitation card and found


    it was the day after tomorrow.


    She quickly turned on theptop to book the ne ticket for tomorrow, only to find that all the tickets

    had been sold out, and then she turned to the highspeed train, but even that had no ticket avable.


    She had no choice but to book a regr train ticket.


    Then, as she turned to close the window, she caught sight of the ck car parked by the flower bed.


    She frowned at it. Had he not left yet?


    But then she stopped thinking. What did it have to do with her, whether he had left or not?


    After drawing the curtains, she hugged Charlotte and closed her eyes. Her mind was a little messy at


    first and she could not sleep, but after a while, she finally fell asleep.


    The next morning


    She prepared breakfast early and woke Charlotte up. After breakfast, she prepared all the meals for the


    next few days.


    However, she was still worried about Dean and nned to take him back to Santabaca with her. Dean


    smiled and refused, i


    He was not born yesterday. Even though his legs could not move, he still had a wheelchair, so he told


    her there was no need to worry about him and to do what she had to do.
