Predestined Marriage

Chapter 250: A Large Amount of Blood

Michael and Violet were siblings. Judging from their behaviors in the past two days, they got along

pretty well.

If they were just walking and chatting together, it wouldn't be a big deal.

However, they had vigilant expressions as if they were afraid of being discovered by others. They

looked extremely suspicious and sneaky.

Summer pursed her lips and followed them.

Because it was New Year's Eve, there were fewer servants in the old house than usual. They had just

finished their New Year's Eve dinner, and now those servants were also having their New Year's Eve

dinner.

As a result, Summer followed them all the way and almost didn't encounter any servants.

Along the way, she followed Michael and Violet and saw Michael bring Violet to his own room.

When he closed the door, Michael even looked around for a while.

Summer dodged to a corner with great vigilance.

When she came out again, the door was already closed.

Summer walked to Michael's door and carefully listened to what they were saying.

She felt that they must have some sort of secret.

Violet was Adams’ mother. Adams had suddenly turned against Leonardo in the past two months, and

Leonardo was obviously not close to Violet.

Previously, Leonardo got along pretty well with Adams and Douglas. Naturally, his relationship with

Violet was not bad either. He would not keep a distance from Violet for no reason.

Even if Adams had turned against him, it was impossible for him to treat Violet coldly because of

Adams.

It could be seen from his relationship with Douglas. He did not treat Douglas coldly because of his

grudge with Adams.

So, there must be something wrong with Violet.

After thinking so much, Summer felt that a wealthy family was really troublesome.

They had so many secrets.

The room was soundproof and Summer could not hear anything at all.

Since she couldn't hear anything, Summer could only turn around and leave.

Not long after she left, she heard the sound of the door opening behind her.

Summer was afraid of being discovered by them and ran away.

She ran to the corner and gasped for a moment before looking over. She found that Michael and Violet

had already left from the other side.

Only then did Summer let out a sigh of relief and go to the bathroom in her room and then back to the

dining room.

When she reached the door of the dining room, she met Leonardo who was in a hurry.

As soon as Leonardo saw her, he stopped and frowned. "What took you so long?"

Summer pursed her lips. She felt that what had happened just now was not enough to prove anything

but that Michael and Violet might have some secrets.

But anybody could have secrets.

Therefore, she did not tell Leonardo and said unwillingly, "Constipation."

Leonardo raised his eyebrows, touched her head, and held her hand.

When Summer entered there, she discovered that Michael was already in the dining room.

Michael seemed to feel Summer's gaze, and he turned around to look at her and smiled.

Because of what happened just now, when Summer saw Michael's smile, she felt that it was a little

strange.

However, she did not show it on her face and only smiled at Michael.

After a while, Violet also came in.

Summer and Leonardo sat next to Charlie, and Violet sat down on the other side of Charlie.

Violet asked gently, "How long have you been pregnant? It can't be seen that you are pregnant."

"Less than two months." Summer involuntarily touched her belly.

Leonardo turned to look at her, his eyes being gentle.

Violet looked at them for a while and smiled.

The smile looked gentle and kind.

Summer suddenly felt puzzled. A woman like Violet was so soft and weak. The two children she

brought up were completely different from her.

No, it was just that Douglas was very different from her.

Adams had always been gentle. No one expected him to do such a despicable thing.

Could it be possible that Adams becoming such an inconsistent person had something to do with his

family?

If that was the case, was Violet also pretending to be weak and gentle?

"Summer? What's wrong with you?"

Summer suddenly regained her senses and realized that she was staring at Violet absentmindedly.

She smiled and said, "Violet, what's wrong?"

"I just asked you a few times. Do you want to go to the hospital to check if it's a boy or a girl?" Violet's

tone was still gentle.

"Probably not," Summer said as she turned to look at Leonardo.

Leonardo raised his eyebrows and looked at Violet. He said with a cold tone, "It doesn't matter if it's a

boy or a girl."

The atmosphere was somewhat strange.

A family like the Emersons naturally wanted Summer to give birth to a boy.

Violet's expression changed slightly when she heard Leonardo's words. She forced a smile and

stopped speaking.

Summer quietly reached out and pinched Leonardo's hand.

After all, today was New Year's Eve, so she felt that Leonardo shouldn't be angry.

However, Leonardo just turned around and glanced at her coldly.

...

After twelve o'clock, people started to say "Happy New Year" to each other.

Charlie gave both Leonardo and Summer a big red envelope. "Happy New Year."

Summer smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Of course, the other grandsons and granddaughters of the family also received red envelopes from

Charlie.

Back in their room, Summer opened the red envelope while observing Leonardo's expression.

Leonardo didn't look happy after Violet asked that question.

"Leonardo!" Summer called him.

Leonardo looked at her expressionlessly. "What?"

"Violet just asked if we wanted to check the child's gender. Why are you so angry?"

Leonardo didn't say anything.

Summer got out of bed and walked to him. "She didn't have a bad intention, you..."

"I don't care!" Leonardo turned to look at her and said with a cold expression, "Summer, I agreed to go

back to the old house with you for the New Year at that time. I don't want you to have any grievance."

Summer was stunned.

So that's what he was angry about.

"I indeed have no grievance."

Summer wanted to laugh. In the past few days, Leonardo had treated her so seriously and carefully

that she felt like she was the center of the world. How could she have grievance?

Leonardo stared at her for a few seconds, as if he was confirming that she wasn't lying. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Then, he sighed softly. "Go to sleep."

...

The next day.

When Summer woke up, Leonardo was not on the bed.

The servant said from outside, "Mrs. Emerson, are you awake? Mr. Charlie asked you to come over.

Mr. Emerson is also waiting for you there."

When Summer heard this, she immediately sat up and said, "I'm awake. I'll be right there."

She looked at the clock. It was already eleven o'clock.

She quickly got up, rinsed herself up, and changed clothes. Then she went to Charlie's room.

Charlie's door was wide open, but there was no one inside.

When she came out of the room, she heard some noises coming from the stairs.

"Grandpa?"

She called him but no one replied, so she walked over.

Suddenly, she heard a dull sound of heavy objects rolling down the stairs.

Summer's heart tightened as she ran towards the stairs.

When she got there, she found that Charlie had already rolled down the stairs to the ground. A large

amount of blood was on the white floor.

Summer's eyes widened. It took a few seconds for her to regain her senses. She shouted in a

trembling voice, "Grandpa!"

A servant passed by and screamed.

"Help! Mr. Charlie has fallen down the stairs!"

"What's going on? Mr. Charlie!"

"Call a doctor!"
