Karen waited at the exit of the underground parking lot. She waited for a long time but did not see
Summer's car coming out.
All cars were driven out of the parking lot slowly, and it was enough for her to see if the driver was
Summer. She was sure that she didn't miss any car, but she didn't see Summer.
So Summer didn't drive here? Or perhaps Summer knew that she was waiting here, so she didn't
come? The more Karen thought about it, the more she felt that Summer was deliberately dodging her.
She got into the car and said to the driver, "Go."
After returning to the Jarrett's, Karen bumped into Spencer who came back from the company to grab
some documents.
"Spencer, why are you home?" Karen said slowly and gently.
Spencer frowned. Obviously, he did not want to talk to Karen. "To get some documents."
"Oh." Karen knew how Vicky would feel, but she did not get along much with Spencer, and she did not
know what to say.
Sensing Spencer's indifference, Karen had nothing to say.
Spencer was bored and he did not want to pay attention to Karen in the first place, so he took the
documents and walked out.
Seeing that Spencer was about to leave, Karen gritted her teeth and called him, "Spencer, wait."
"What do you want?" Spencer didn't like Karen, but he didn't hate her either. He just looked down on
Karen. That was why he seldom talked to his stepmother.
"I saw Summer at the supermarket just now."
Karen looked hesitant. The expression on Spencer's face froze, "Who? Summer? Why did you look for
her?"
"I think she knows something about your sister. She ignored me when I asked her. Afterwards, I waited
her at the exit of the parking lot, but she didn't even pass there. She was hiding from me!"
The more Karen spoke, the more she was certain about it and the more confident she looked.
Spencer frowned as if he had heard a joke. He said coldly, "Think about what you've done to Summer,
okay? If I were her, I wouldn't care about you either!"
"Spencer, how can you say that to me? Aren't you worried about your sister? She's your sister!"
"And Summer is your daughter!"
Spencer's words left Karen speechless.
He wasn't defending Summer. When Summer was young, she behaved herself and he didn't hate her.
After Karen was married into the Jarrett family, she had always focused on Vicky. Vicky was spoiled,
and Karen was part of the reason.
Good or evil, people carry it in their genes.
As for Spencer, he basically grew up as a free child. Lynn was busy with work and didn't have time for
him. Karen wanted to get close to him, but she couldn't. Spencer's role had been neutral in the Jarret's.
Lynn couldn't tolerate any longer when Spencer began to race cars with his friends, so he sent him
abroad.
To be frank, he didn't have grudges against Summer. To him, Summer was a younger sister who he
neither liked nor hated. But, perhaps they were related, he was closer to her than to others.
After seeing what Karen had done to Summer, Spencer thought Karen had gone too far and was
puzzled. But he didn't care. After all, it had nothing to do with him.
Karen's face turned pale as she tugged at Spencer's sleeve. "Spencer, listen to me. I think Vicky's
disappearance must have something to do with her. She ignores me, but you are close to her! Find her
and she will definitely talk. Otherwise..."
Karen thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, I'll call the police!"
Spencer had always looked down on Karen, and his face darkened when she tugged at his sleeve.
Shaking off Karen, Spender straightened his sleeve with a look of disgust. "Others may assume Vicky
is your daughter and Summer is the adopted one, right?"
"Spencer, what do you mean...?" Until now, Karen did not think she was wrong. What Vicky had done
had disappointed her, but she couldn't ignore her.
After all, she had cared for Vicky for so many years, and she was more like her biological daughter.
Spencer snorted coldly, not wanting to waste any more time talking nonsense with her.
After Summer brought Rosie home, she sorted out her purchase and began to make lunch.
In terms of cooking for Rosie, she would always put in a lot of efforts to make the dishes both delicious
and pleasant to eyes.
Rosie went to bed after lunch.
After tucking Rosie in, Summer returned to the dining room to clean the dishes and heard someone
knocking on the door.
At first, Summer thought she was hallucinating. She stood up and listened for a moment. She found
there was indeed someone knocking, so she got up and walked to the door.
She had few friends, but there had been quite a few visits in the past few days. Summer walked to the
door and looked through the peep hole. When she discovered that it was Spencer, she was stunned.
It was again someone who she hadn't seen in a long time. Thinking of Karen who she saw in the
supermarket, she vaguely understood why Spencer came to her. They were neither close nor distant,
but Summer treated him better than Karen.
In the end, she opened the door. Summer hesitated for a moment and called out, "Spencer."
Among the three children of the Jarretts, Spencer was the eldest, Vicky was in the middle, and
Summer was the youngest.
If Vicky wasn't that crazy, Summer would be obliged to treat her like a sister.
"Summer, long time no see." It had been a long time since Spencer saw Summer. He was extremely
awkward when he spoke, and the smile on his face was somewhat stiff.
"Come in." Summer moved sideways and let Spencer in.
Spencer walked in and looked around the room. The house was very small for him.
Summer brought him to the sofa and sat down. Spencer put his hands on his knees and asked, "You
live here alone?"
Summer did not answer. She took a cup and asked him, "What do you want to drink?"
"I'm not thirsty." Spencer waved his hand, indicating that he wouldn't drink anything.
Summer poured him a glass of water and placed it in front of him.
"How can I help you?" Summer did not like to ask this every time someone came, but Spencer wouldn't
come to her for no reason.
After thinking for a while, Spencer held his hands together and said with a tense face. "Karen told me
she met you at the supermarket."
He always addressed Karen by her name and Summer did not find it strange.
"Yeah." Summer sat down opposite him and fixed her gaze on him.
