Predestined Bride

Summer Jarrett never sleepwalked.

Face blushing, she turned to look at him, “You… ”

“I’m injured.” Leonardo Emerson also turned to look at her with a cold voice.

Summer had never been in bed with a man. Leonardo had such a strong and cool aura that Summer calmed down her anger.

She pursed her lips nervously and lifted the quilt to get out of bed. However, the man beside her grabbed her by the wrist.

The man looked at her with doubt, “Why are your hands so white, while your face is like wax?” She took back her hand in surprise and said in a low voice, “I was born like this.”

Then, Summer jumped out of bed just like a rabbit and went to the bathroom.

…

In the bathroom, she looked at the sallow woman in the mirror, with self-mockery flashing in her eyes.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She took the cleansing water from the cupboard under the sink and began to cleanse her face.

A few minutes later, a beautiful woman with rosy cheeks, bright eyes and white teeth appeared in the mirror.

If it wasn’t for renting a house outside after graduation and cleansing her make-up every day, she would have forgotten her original appearance.

Karen, her mother should have been happy that her daughter was beautiful.

But when Summer was a kid, Karen often complaint that Summer stole Vicky Jarrett’s thunder. So, Karen never bought new clothes for her.

At that time, she tried her best to make Karen happy.

She fell from the top one to the last one of her grades. She went from a campus belle to an ugly girl who didn’t have friends.

But everything was in vain. Her mother didn’t care more about her.

Summer didn’t want to believe the fact that Karen didn’t love her at all.

Half an hour later, she disguised herself again and left the bathroom.

Leonardo leaned over the bed and looked at his cell phone. The expressionless appearance made him more attractive.

She thought over something and said, “I’m going out. You’d better call someone to pick you up and go home.”

Leonardo didn’t respond.

Summer didn’t care. She just took her bag and went out.

Karen ordered her to go home to be married, so she finished her last job in a hurry.

She had to find a new job to support herself.

…

The morning passed quickly.

She was waiting for the bus at the station.

Suddenly, a black car stopped in front of her.

The window came down, there was a young man with a gentle smile, “Summer, where are you going?”

Her eyes lit up immediately and her voice was filled with joy, “Jerome Patel? Why are you here?”

“Get in first. We can’t stop here for long.” Jerome said and opened the door for her.

Summer went into the car directly. But as soon as she closed the door, she heard Jerome say, “I want to have dinner with your sister. Let’s eat together.”

He would have an appointment with Vicky?

Summer should have thought of it.

Many people had said that the two couldn’t be more perfectly matched.

But they had not been together, so Summer could hide her feelings and continue to be friends with Jerome.

She moved her lips stiffly, “I still have something to do, I’m sorry I can’t…”

“We haven’t had dinner together for a long time. Follow me.” His attitude was very tough, not giving her a chance to refuse.

They arrived at the restaurant soon.

Vicky had arrived. When she saw Summer and Jerome coming together, her face cooled down immediately.

Jerome didn’t notice her expression, “Vicky, I met Summer on the road, so I took her to have dinner with us. Do you mind?”

With a smile on her face, she said softly, “Of course not.”

“I want to go to the bathroom. You can chat with each other first.” Jerome left this sentence with a smile and turned away.

As soon as he left, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, “What’s up? That disabled man of the Emerson family can’t satisfy you, so you run out to seduce Jerome?”
