Carl had to put the phone back and smiled, “Alright.”
When Leonardo returned, he would probably get even with him once he knew that. But he had made the promise to Summer.
As the basic moral request, one must be honest. He was torn between Summer and Leonardo.
Dous was brought here by the hotel manager. When the knock sounded, Carl immediately ran to open the door.
“Excuse me, I am the manager of the hotel. A gentleman was looking for you, so I brought him here.” With that, he looked inside. Obviously, he wanted to see where Summer was.
Summer went over in a wheelchair and said, “Thank you.”
However, she was a little puzzled. Although she and Leonardo were indeed their distinguished guests, bringing Dous to see her personally showed too much respect to them.
Seeing that Summer was confused, the manager exined, “The boss told me to take your matters seriously.”
Boss?
Summer remembered the day Lester came to her house in disguise. Before Lester arrived, Leonardo answered a phone call. After that, Leonardo was not surprised to see Lester at all, as if he had received the message in advance.
At that time, there were a group of bodyguards outside the door. They said they were Alden’s subordinates.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.
Summer asked, “Your boss is Alden…”
Before she could say Alden Lopez’s full name, she was interrupted by the manager. He said in a natural tone, “Yes.”
Summer understood that although this hotel belonged to Alden, no one else could know its real owner. Summer didn’t ask any further.
She didn’t know how close Leonardo and Alden’s rtionship was, but she felt that the friendship between men was quite amazing.
The manager retreated to the side, and then Dous, who was standing behind him, appeared in front of Summer.
Summer called out in a daze, “Dous.”
Looking at Dous, who was much thinner than before, Summer began to have mixed feelings. And she still felt a little sad.
“Summer.” Dous managed a smile with his thin face, but still looked very haggard.
Dous was naughty in his teens and the first time they met was when Dous came back from abroad and identally burst into her room.
Anyway, he was born into a wealthy family and never endured hardship when he was young. Summer did not know his recent life, but seeing his haggard and thin face, she felt very distressed.
Summer retreated to the side and said, “Come in.”
Unexpectedly, Dous shook his head.
Summer thought he was afraid of Leonardo. So she hurriedly said, “He was not here.”
Since she was really concerned about Dous and hadn’t seen him for a long time, she spoke in a very gentle tone.
Dous still shook his head, but his eyes turned red quickly.
He abruptly turned his face away and rudely wiped his face. Then, he turned back and smiled at Summer, “I just want to see you. Take care of yourself and get better. Rosie needs you, and Leonardo also needs you.”
Summer understood that after experiencing so many things, Dous could no longer be as innocent as before. It was normal for him to be more sensible.
It was strange that she could actually feel a hint of sadness of departure in Dous’ tone.
Summer was slightly worried and said, “Dous, what’s wrong? Did something happen? You can tell me.”
