She saw Mark standing on her left. His deep dark eyes stared at her, gloomy and cold.
With a slight shiver, she stepped back a few steps to put distance between herself and Dean.
Dean stepped back as well, looking confused and disgusted for kissing the back of a man's hand. But
who was this man?
"Who is this?" Dean asked.
"A friend." Summer said nonchalantly. She didn’t even look at him.
The storm gathered in Mark's eyes. His big hand pushed her shoulder into his arm, his eyes glared
sharply at Dean and said with his voice deep, "I'm her husband..."
Dean froze in place. His mind went blank. Was... Was... Was she married?

them.
Summer just ignored it and talked to Dean standing beside her.
The corner of Mark's eye caught the two were talking.
The lines on his face stiffened, sending out a chill vibe.
"Since Mr. Valentine is Summer's friend, he’s our friend, too. Would you like to join us for a drink?"
Kayla invited warmly.
Mark stared at Summer keenly. He raised an eyebrow, moved his thin lips, and said, "All right.”
Seeing this, Summer frowned unhappily and glared at him. As the CEO of Valentine Group, was there
nothing better to do?

happy.

Summer had Mark on her left, Kayla on her right, and Dean next to Kayla.
