Chapter 514


    As Summer got out of the car, she remembered what she had seen at the restaurant. She looked at


    Mark, the corners of her mouth moving slightly but she held back. 1


    She wanted to say something, but she did not know how to say it, and the words were stuck in her


    throat, making her feel ufortable.


    After all, this was not an ordinary thing, the other party was his father. How could she say it properly?


    "Go up now, Charlotte can''t keep her eyes open. I''ll take her to kindergarten tomorrow." He put his


    trench coat on Charlotte as he spoke.


    Summer nodded, swallowing the words back. She needed time to think things out before she told him.


    In the hospital


    Ronald asked his assistant to get the report, and the results showed that Summer was indeed adopted.


    If so, then Summer was already 80 percent Samantha’s daughter, but one final step was needed.


    Samantha leaned back in bed, thinking of Summer and chuckling. She did not look like her at all.


    "You’ll have to let her know eventually. Rather than hesitate, it''s better to tell her directly."


    "It’s up to you. I trust you, and I know I can count on you." She was content. With him around, why


    should she worry?


    Ronald nodded, dialed the number and waited for her t o answer the phone.


    Summer was putting Charlotte to bed when her cell phone rang. The caller ID showed an unknown


    number. After hesitating for a moment, she picked it u P-Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    "Summer, it’s me."


    After a few seconds of hesitation and wonder, in real difort, she answered unnaturally, "Uncle.”


    "Well, do you have time tomorrow? There''s something I''d like to talk to you about."


    Talk to her? Summer was even more surprised. What could he and she talk about?


    "Tomorrow is the first day of school. I’m afraid I don''t have the time," she replied. But to be honest, the


    first day of school was always busy.


    "There must be time for lunch. I’ll be at your school at noon, and we''ll meet during your lunch hour."


    Ronald had already said so, and Summer could not reject him again, so she said, "Okay."


    But she was confused about Ronald’s intention and what he wanted to talk to her about. There was no


    rtion between her and him, was there?


    Did he know what she had seen under the table? Was that why he wanted to meet with her?


    She went to sleep, wondering and confused. The next morning, after breakfast, she took Charlotte


    downstairs.


    Time was tight. Summer had to go to school, so she did not have time to send Charlotte to


    kindergarten. She took a bus to school first, and Mark took Charlotte to the kindergarten.


    She had spent the morning familiarizing herself with the environment and checking on the ss, and


    had forgotten her lunch date with Ronald.


    At noon, when the number called again, she remembered what happenedst night. Ronald said h e


    was at the school''s main entrance.


    When she got to the school gate, she saw Ronald at a nce. She approached him and said, "Uncle."


    "You haven''t had your lunch yet? I haven''t either. Let’s have lunch together." Ronald smiled and


    headed for the restaurant.
