Summer stared at him for a second before getting up and walking towards him.
Just when she was two steps away from Leonardo, he impatiently pulled her into his arms.
"Summer, you're getting more and more brave! Now you even dare to lie to me!" Leonardo heaved a
sigh of relief with her in his arms.
"But you didn't fall for it!" Summer felt somewhat angry at the thought of it.
She pushed Leonardo, "You're holding me too tightly. Let me go! I have something to talk to you."
Leonardo didn't let go but hugged her even tighter and said in earnest, "Just say it."
"How can I talk with you holding me so tight?" Summer couldn't move her hands or feet in his arms.
"Then we can change a position."
With that, Leonardo carried her up and walked towards the bed.
Summer's expression changed, "No, let's talk ... just like this!"
Leonardo put her on the bed and then lay down beside her, enfolding her in his arms.
"Alright, you can speak now."
However, Summer would rather be held in his arms than lie on the bed with him.
Leonardo kissed the corner of her lips and asked, "Why didn't Stanley succeed in hypnotizing you?"
"How do you know he has hypnotized me?" Summer asked curiously.
"Stanley is extremely confident in himself. If he dares to bring you out, he naturally has full confidence
that you won't go with me. He only knows evil stuffs, so what else can he do other than hypnotism?"
Suddenly, Leonardo's voice turned cold, "After all, he once gave me a deep hypnosis. So he can also
hypnotize you."
"I knew it. You're so smart that you'll definitely be able to guess it!" Summer's eyes lit up with
undisguised admiration.
Leonardo was aroused and lowered his head to kiss her.
Summer quickly covered her lips and said in a muffled voice, "We haven't finished our conversation
yet!"
"Just one kiss." Leonardo looked down and Summer couldn't tell his feelings.
She shook her head, because she knew what kind of person Leonardo was.
If she allowed him to kiss her now, she might not be able to get out of the bed tomorrow.
Leonardo snorted and kissed the back of her hand.
Summer felt itchy on the back of her hand.
Afterwards, Leonardo kept pecking the back of her hand.
In the end, Summer could not stand it anymore and kicked him, "Let’s get down to business."
"OK," Leonardo said and then kissed her face and tender ears.
Summer really got angry and shouted, "Leonardo!"
"Fine," Leonardo replied and reluctantly retreated a little.
Summer then continued, "He wanted to hypnotize me and convinced me that you killed Rosie. Then I
would hate you. But I know best in my heart that you loved Rosie. When the villa was on fire, you must
have rushed in without hesitation to save her."
"I've been holding onto this belief when he was hypnotizing me. But even so, his hypnosis wasn't
completely ineffective on me. Fortunately, I kept myself awake with your pen."
Hearing this, Leonardo fell silent for a moment and asked, "Where's the pen?"
"It's in my bag," Summer answered. But then she frowned, "Where is my bag?"
Leonardo stood up and found her bag at the corner of the bed. Then he indeed saw the pen in her bag.
He carefully took out the pen and examined it.
Summer curled her lips and asked, "Where did you get this pen?"
Leonardo turned around and stared at her for a few seconds before vaguely answering, "Someone
gave it to me."
"Who?" Summer guessed that this pen might have been given to Leonardo by her when she was a
child.
However, she could not remember when she gave it to him.
Instead of guessing it herself, she might as well ask Leonardo directly.
"A beautiful little girl," Leonardo said as he put the pen into his pocket.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Summer saw his action and reached out to snatch the pen.
As Leonardo pulled away, Summer failed to get the pen but threw herself into Leonardo's arms.
She lay on Leonardo's body, and they looked extremely intimate.
Just as she was about to get up, she felt Leonardo's arm wrapping around her waist.
Leonardo tightened his arms around her waist and stopped her from getting up, whispering in her ear,
"The pen is mine. What do you want to do?"
"You haven't told me who gave it to you!" Summer had been extremely curious about this since three
years ago.
Leonardo said casually, "Didn't I tell you just now? It was a very beautiful little girl."
Summer glared at him.
Leonardo laughed and leaned over to kiss her.
Then he changed the subject, "We'll take the plane to the Hoover City tomorrow morning."
Summer became serious and said gravely, "We can't go back for the time being."
Leonardo squinted and said in a slightly nervous tone, "Summer, I know what you're thinking. No way!
You can't do that!"
Summer knew that Leonardo would see through her thoughts.
"Stanley is too meticulous and cautious. He does everything delicately without leaving any traces. If we
don't get close to him, it will be very difficult for us to find out his purpose!"
Summer had pondered on it for a long time and realized that only if she stayed by Stanley's side would
she have a chance to find out what he intended to do and what grudge he had against Leonardo.
That was why she pretended to be hypnotized and deliberately said those words at the banquet. She
just wanted to gain Stanley's trust.
Stanley was cautious but over-confident.
He had always treated Leonardo as his enemy and reveled in defeating Leonardo. Since he had
successfully hypnotized Leonardo back then, he was naturally more confident in his hypnosis
technique.
Therefore, he didn't doubt whether Summer had been hypnotized or not.
Leonardo's deep voice was tinged with anger, "Summer, this is between Stanley and me. I will handle it
myself."
Summer immediately retorted, "But I want to help you, just like you helped me."
Her simple and straightforward remark surprised Leonardo for a moment.
"Leonardo, although I'm not as powerful as you, I'm not as weak as you think. I can do a lot of things."
Leonardo wasn't moved by her sincerity but said coldly, "What can you do?"
Summer suddenly thought of something and smiled, "I can do what you can't do."
Leonardo sneered in disbelief.
Summer smiled more triumphantly and said gently, "I gave birth to a girl. Can you do that?"
Leonardo couldn't possibly answer that.
