Predestined Bride

In the dark night, his voice was a little hoarse, which sounded a little similar to Leonardo’s.

Summer froze for a moment, feeling that tonight’s “Douglas” was exceptionally abnormal.

It was clearly her who was kidnapped. She had slept for a while and now she had almost calmed down. However, his mood seemed to be extremely bad. He was covered in the gloomy aura.

He was unfathomable, and fearful.

Summer hesitated for a moment before getting out of the car.

She walked to stand behind “Douglas” and whispered to him, “What’s wrong with you?”

“Douglas” did not say anything. He put out the cigarette in his hand and turned around.

In the night, although Summer could not see his face clearly, but she could still feel the intense pressure.

Suddenly, the man standing in front of her looked down and kissed her.

He kissed her hard and his breathing was so burning that Summer tingled slightly.

Immediately, she came back to her senses and pressed her hand on his chest, trying to push him away.

However, “Douglas” did not let go of her as he did in the past.

Not only did he not let go of her, his arms around her waist tightened even harder, putting her out of action.

The difference in strength between them was too great. Summer struggled in vain and could only endure his increasingly violent kisses.

It wasn’t until the two of them were breathing harder and harder that “Douglas” let go of her.

Summer was already as weak as a cat. The moment he let go, she was going to fall to the ground. “Douglas” carried her up and put her into the car.

“Douglas” got on the car from the other side, started the car, and did not say a word.

After a while, Summer finally calmed down. Although she was angry at his behavior, she was unable to break out. They returned to the villa in silence.

The villa was brightly lit, and there were bodyguards everywhere.

Summer was a little surprised, “What happened?”

Did Leonardo gather the bodyguards to look for her when he noticed that she was gone?

“Douglas”, who had kissed her, just entered the villa, as if he hadn’t heard her words.

Summer followed behind him. Looking at his straight back, she felt that “Douglas” was unfathomable.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

As soon as he entered, “Douglas” went upstairs.

When Summer returned to the villa, she felt even more at ease. When she calmed down, she became more than hungry.

When a bodyguard saw her go to the kitchen, he hurriedly followed and said, “What would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

“There should be some ready-made ones. I will just grab something to eat.” She was so hungry that she could eat two cows now.

However, the bodyguard got her a large table of hearty food.

She was already starving and picked up her chopsticks to eat.

Halfway through the meal, she looked up and found that “Douglas” walked in and sat opposite her.

A bodyguard immediately brought him the tableware.

Seeing this, Summer asked him, “Haven’t you eaten yet?”

“Douglas” said indifferently, “I don’t have time to eat.”

That was right. “Douglas” took a lot of time to save her, so it was normal that he didn’t have time to eat.

“Douglas” had already changed his clothes and his hair was slightly wet. He should have taken a bath.

Summer was almost full, so she put down her chopsticks and solemnly said, “Thank you … for saving me again.”

Her feeling was a little complicated.

She had always wanted to keep a distance from “Douglas”, but he had helped her and saved her over and over again. She couldn’t cut their connection.

“Don’t be so stupid next time.” “Douglas” did not look up, and his tone did not contain any emotions.

Hearing this, Summer’s expression darkened. She laughed self-deprecatingly, “Indeed, I am too stupid.”

“But what can I do? After all, she is my biological mother. I can’t ignore her. No matter how bad she is, I never thought that she would deceive me with others. And…”

Summer choked up when she said that.

She fell silent, her tense chin carrying a trace of endurance.

“Douglas” looked up at her stubborn appearance. Somehow, he slowly said, “Not all mothers are like her. My mother is very good.”

Summer looked up in surprise. Was “Douglas” comforting her?

When she thought he would say something else, he looked down and ate slowly, as if he hadn’t said anything just now.

…

This night, Summer had nightmares.

She got up early, cooked breakfast but was not in the mood to eat. She stayed in the living room and watched TV on the sofa.

She wasn’t in a hurry to confront the Jarretts.

She knew that even if she went, Vicky would not admit it.

Something buzzed.

It was the phone.

Summer glanced at the caller ID. It was Jessica.

She called Jessica yesterday, but she did not elaborate on what happened yesterday. She only said a few words, so Jessica did not know that she almost died yesterday.

The reason why “Douglas” could go to save her was Jessica called Carl.

“Do you want to go shopping today to relax? I’m going to go all over the country in a few days to promote the new movie, being a flying man again.”

Summer replied, “Sure.”

She went back to her room and changed her clothes. When she went downstairs, she saw “Douglas”.

“Where are you going?” “Douglas” glanced at the bag in her hand and knew that she was going out.

“Shopping with friends.” She took the initiative to add, “With Jessica, the girl you have met.”

Then, Summer felt that her explanation to “Douglas” was somewhat strange.

“Douglas” stood up and picked up the car keys from the side, “I’ll drive you.”

Summer wanted to say no, but it seemed that “Douglas” could read her thoughts. Before she spoke, he said, “Leonardo instructed me to drive you when you’re going out if I’m free.”

Upon mentioning Leonardo, Summer’s eyes no longer lit up like before.

When she was in danger yesterday, it was “Douglas” who went to save her. When she returned to the villa, she did not see Leonardo. He did not even say a word of concern.

She thought that she had shown enough sincerity during this period of time, but Leonardo was still unwilling to see her.

Since that was the case, then they could be a decent and distant couple.

They had nothing to do with each other, and did not care about each other, living their own lives.

She had not been cared about by anyone since childhood, so it was no big deal to have Leonardo acting the same.

With this thought, Summer relaxed a lot. She took two steps towards “Douglas” and tilted her head slightly. “If it is Leonardo’s order, you don’t have to drive me. If you are free and willing to drive me, then thanks.”
