Chapter 555
Solomon was still as stubborn as an ox, behaving like a child. "What for? My body is still strong. I can
live for another forty years at least, so I don''t need a check-up!"
Summer was at her wit''s end with him, but she had already nned something in her mind. She was
going to drag Solomon with her the next time she visited the hospital.
Summer did not spend much time at home. She packed up the roasted vegetables that Daisy had

prepared before she left with Charlotte.
Mark had an important meeting to attend that night, s o he could not make it back to send them to his
apartment. That was why they took a cab back instead.
After Summer put Charlotte to bed, she sat on the couch in the living room and waited for Mark. But, a
burst of sleepiness hit her as she slowly fell asleep on the couch.
The quartz clock that hung in the middle of the living room pointed at one. The apartment door made a
creaking sound, and Mark''s tall and burly silhouette appeared before the door.
It looked like he had just returned from entertaining
his clients, as there was a faint smell of alcohol on him. His coat was hanging on his arm, and his cor
was unfolded with a loosened tie around it.
His gaze fell on a body that was curled up like a caterpir on the sofa after he walked into the living
room. The expression and lines on his face turned soft as if a warm light had shone into his heart. He
quietly walked toward her and bent down to carry her in his arms, bridal style.
The tiniest slit of her half-awake eyes opened, and the look on her face instantly turned bright and
joyful after she saw his face. Yet, she still could not stop yawning. "You’re back. Dinner is in the
kitchen.”
"Okay, I know. You can sleep now..." His eyes and voice turned gentle, like a ripple that was slowly
dispersing over the water.
The light that she kept on for him, and the effort she made to wait for him had given him a sense of
indescribable belonging; he felt right at home. His fatigue and drowsiness from the dinner party earlier
went away almost instantly.
"I''ll reheat the dinner for you before I go back to sleep ..." She squirmed around in his arms while she
spoke because she wanted to break free from him.
However, Mark did not keep his arms away from her a s he continued to wrap her in a tight embrace.
He cupped her lower jaw with his left hand and pressed her face against his chest. "Just go to sleep
now. I''ll reheat it myself. Just sleep...”
Perhaps, she was really drained, but she did not put u p a fight anymore. She just went on to find the
mostfortable spot in his arms, closed her eyes, and started to fall asleep.
Just as she was about to fall asleeppletely, the man’s deep but wispy voice rang in her ears
faintly." From today onward, I won''te home thiste anymore...”
There would definitely be dinners that he needed to attend, but he would still try to reach home as early
as possible because he did not want her to wait...
Over in a hotel...
It was nighttime, and Ronald stood before a window, while a man in a suit stood behind him.
"Have you heard anything?" Ronald asked.
"What about the medicine? Are they still using it?"
"They have been using it for a week now, without stopping."
"What''s the dosage like?"
Summer woke up early this morning. It was only six o''clock when she arose.
