Predestined Marriage

Chapter 65 Summer Does All This

There were many female employees in the market department. When women gathered, they loved to

gossip.

At noon, what had happened in the market department this morning was made known to the entire

company.

Summer’s face was badly swollen. When she went to the bathroom, she could hear her female

colleagues’ discussions about that matter.

“What the hell is going on? I heard that only one woman asked for leave today.”

“Obviously, Vicky and Stone are trapping Summer!”

“Really? Summer has only been here for a few days. Has she offended Stone?”

“Everyone knows what kind of person Stone is. I heard that he asked for leave and went to the hospital

because of Summer!”

“Is Summer so ruthless?”

“But I think Vicky is even more ruthless. When she slapped Summer, I could hear the sound from afar.

What kind of grudge do they have, so that Vicky beat Summer so ferociously?”

Summer leaned against the wall in the bathroom. After the outside world quieted down, she opened the

door and went out.

Standing in front of the sink, she looked at her face in the mirror.

It was already swollen and somewhat black, which looked a little scary.

Vicky had indeed beaten her fiercely.

It seemed that Vicky had held back so much anger during this period.

Let’s wait and see who would win in the end.

…

During the lunch break, Summer was going to eat outside.

Just as she got up, the phone in her pocket rang.

It was “Douglas”.

Summer frowned and picked up the phone. “What’s wrong?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Leonardo didn’t seem to notice the impatience in her tone. “Come out for lunch. I’ll wait for you at the

Jarrett Group’s entrance.”

He said that as if he gave an order and then hung up the phone.

Summer looked at the phone with the locked-up screen. She scratched her hair irritably and walked

out.

After leaving the Jarrett Group’s gate, Summer saw the eye-catching car of “Douglas”. When she got

downstairs, she investigated his car on the Internet.

The starting price was 10 million, and the final price was determined according to the owner’s

requirements.

This was already incredible for Summer.

Even Lynn might not be willing to buy such a car for Vicky.

Seeing that many people were discussing the car of “Douglas”, Summer lowered her head and quickly

walked towards him.

At this time, another car drove over. Summer was prepared to wait for the car to pass, but the car

stopped right in front of her.

The driver got out of the car and opened the rear door. The person who got off was Karen.

A long time ago, Summer tricked Karen into the restaurant and Summer didn’t show up. Since then,

they hadn’t seen each other.

Karen commanded the driver to take down the two thermal containers. She inadvertently looked up and

saw Summer standing beside the car.

She frowned and was completely shocked. She looked at Summer in disbelief and asked uncertainly,

“Are you Summer?”

Summer wore a fake smile on her face, carrying a deep mockery, “Do you think I am?”

Living under the same roof for more than twenty years, her biological mother couldn’t recognize her.

Karen saw her changed appearance, but directly ignored her swollen face.

It was unknown whether it was Summer’s or Karen’s sorrow.

Karen approached and looked at Summer carefully, “You … you had plastic surgery? So you didn’t go

when I invited you for a meal last time?”

Summer then couldn’t even smile. A trace of sadness appeared on her face. “Mom, I am Summer. I

was born with this appearance, but you always said that I shouldn’t be prettier than my sister.

Therefore, as I grew up, I looked uglier.”

“How is this possible? You’ve been so ugly all these years …” Karen couldn’t believe Summer’s words.

How could she have pretended to be ugly for so many years?

Summer looked at Karen calmly and said in a voice filled with sorrow, “Because I want to be your good

daughter. To make you happy, since childhood, I have done all your requirements.”

Karen moved her lips, unable to speak for a moment.

In her memories, Summer was indeed obedient, beautiful, and excellent when she was young, but her

study became worse and she came uglier as she grew up. Before that, she had indeed said to Summer

that she should not be better than her sister.

But she immediately said defensively, “You did it voluntarily. You can’t blame me!”

Summer was shocked for a moment, and her eyes turned red as she asked, “Mom, am I your biological

daughter?”

“You…”

“Let’s go eat.”

A male voice interrupted Karen’s words abruptly. Summer looked up and found that “Douglas” had

already been on her side.

He was tall. He needed to look down in front of Summer.

Summer looked up at him with red eyes. Her beautiful eyes were full of tears. She looked extremely

pitiful.

When he saw her swollen and black face, a sharp light burst out from his eyes. In an instant, he

concealed it and expressionlessly pulled her away.

Karen recognized this person as “Douglas” who had been to the Jarrett’s last time. Why would he come

to pick up Summer?

Could it be that they…

Thinking of what they had done in the car last time, Karen hurriedly shouted, “Wait.”

They turned around to look at her. Karen said, “Summer, I brought a lot of food for your father and

sister. Do you want to eat with us?”

Just as Summer was about to refuse, Leonardo stepped in front of her and said, “OK, I haven’t had

anything yet.”

The food that Karen had brought was only enough for three people. She knew “Douglas” was

Leonardo’s cousin, so she could not offend him. She didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Summer looked up at him in confusion and nudged him with her elbow slightly.

Leonardo tightened his grip on her forearm and looked down at her, signaling to her to calm down.

Strangely, Summer calmed down due to his gaze. She stood quietly beside him and did not make a

sound.

Karen had been a full-time wife for most of her life. Apart from spending money on her appearance to

win the favor with Lynn, she could judge the situation. She knew “Douglas” could not be neglected, so

she signaled to the driver to inform Lynn.

Lynn came down very quickly, followed by Vicky.

Vicky had made up on purpose. Her makeup looked slightly bright.

When she saw “Douglas”, she fixed her eyes with greed on him as if she would win his heart.

Summer noticed her gaze and moved. She stood in front of “Douglas”, wanting to block Vicky’s

sight.
