Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 294

Leonardo's kiss went down the corner of her lips. When he reached her neck, Summer stopped him and said, "Dinner."

"I can eat something else first." Leonardo's voice was hoarse as he lowered his head to kiss her hands.

Again and again, he kissed her hands, patiently and affectionately, as if he would never stop until she moved her hands away.

Summer's face turned hot, but she did not allow Leonardo to go on.

She reached out and pushed Leonardo's head away, "Either eat dinner or go home and eat yourself."

Leonardo's throat slid with difficulty. He buried his head in her shoulder socket and seriously discussed with her, "What if I eat just a little?"

Summer didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How come he discussed such a thing with her like this?

The result was, of course, that Summer did not agree.

The two of them briefly tidied up and sat down at the dining table to eat.

This house was a single apartment with one bedroom and one living room, so the dining room was near the living room.

The dining table wass very small.

Summer did not accommodate herself to Leonardo. Instead, she cooked two simple home-cooked dishes as usual.

She had a poor appetite, so she didn't eat much. But Leonardo ate a lot.

He ate so much and so quickly, but not in a wolfing, rude way but very easy on the eye.

Glamor was something that one can only imagine but never describe.

Even though she knew that this man was irritable, she couldn't ignore his glamor.

When she was full, she leaned lazily against the chair and watched him eating.

It had been a long time since the two of them had sat peacefully together for dinner.

Upon closer inspection, she discovered that Leonardo was a little off-color and thinner than the last time she saw him.

Looking at him, she asked subconsciously, "Do you eat on time every day?"

As soon as her words came out, Summer pursed her lips awkwardly and said, "I just..."

Leonardo raised his eyes to look at her, his pair of pitch-black eyes shining brightly with undisguised joy.

Summer could not continue her words.

Was her caring about him gave him so much joy?

"I ate on Time, but the food outside isn't as delicious as you cooked." Leonardo wasn't good at rhetoric, but what he said seriously sounded like sweet words.

Summer lowered her eyes and said, "Now that you finish eating, just leave."

Silent for a moment, Leonardo said, "I'll leave after I wash the dishes."

"There is no need..." Before Summer could finish her words, Leonardo stood, put away the plates on the dining table, and carried them into the kitchen.

Summer also stood up. When she was about to stop him, she heard knocks on the door.

Who came there this time at night?

Summer saw through the peephole and found that it was Jessica.

She opened the door and asked in surprise, "Jessica, why are you here? It's so late."

Jessica looked tired. Obviously, she rushed over there just after her activity.

She kicked a box on the ground and said, "The crew brought me two boxes of lychees from my hometown. Since I would pass by there on my way home, I wanna give you one."

As Jessica spoke, she got into Summer's room.

Summer followed behind and took the box of lychees into the house. "It's so late. You don't need to come here to give me these. I could've got it myself." Summer said.

"It doesn't matter. You don't have a car, and I will pass by anyhow." Jessica walked straight to the sofa and leaned back on it.

At this time, Leonardo's voice came from the kitchen, "Summer, the detergent's used up."

The kitchen was close to the door, and the two of them passed by the kitchen just now. But as Jessica was preoccupied by her talking to Summer, she didn't notice that there was someyone else in the kitchen.

There was a moment of silence.

Jessica turned to look at Summer as if her eyes were complaining, "You're hiding a man."

Summer pulled a wry face. Just as she was about to say something, she caught a glimpse of Leonardo walking out of the kitchen.

He didn't get Summer's reply about the detergent for a long time, so he walked out.

Then he saw Jessica.

Jessica saw Leonardo and the pink floral apron he had on.

Jessica was also there when Summer bought this apron. Summer wasn't interested in anything in the few days when she just returned, so Jessica took her to go shopping.

The tall and straight man wore a white shirt, black trousers, and a pink flower apron. He rolled up his sleeves as he walked out of the kitchen.

It should've been a warm moment in a family.

However, it seemed a little weird when the man was Leonardo.

Even though he was in a pink apron, he was not gentle at all but still showed a powerful vibe.

Jessica stood up from the sofa like she's sleepwalking and shouted, "Boss?"

"Yes." Leonardo replied and turned to Summer, "Where's the detergent?"

There was a subtle atmosphere.

"It's in the cabinet." Summer glanced at Jessica before walking into the kitchen. She said to Leonardo, "Let me get it for you."

The kitchen counter was not big enough, so Summer put a lot of things in the cabinet.

She took out the detergent and looked up at Leonardo, "You ... should go back now."

"I'll go back right after I finish this." Leonardo expressionlessly took over the detergent in her hand, walked to the sink, and began to wash the dishes.

He had never washed dishes before. She can tell he was not skilled, but he did it very carefully.

Leonardo kept his word and left after finishing it.

Witnessing the entire process, Jessica was still "sleepwalking" until Leonardo left. "What's going on with you guys? Are you on a break or not?"

Jessica could not understand the relationship between them.

Summer opened the box Jessica brought and said, "Temporarily on a break."

Jessica asked tentatively, "Does that mean that you still have feelings for each other?"

Summer paused for a moment before nodding, "Yes."

The reason why she fled abroad was not that she did not love Leonardo anymore.

It was that she couldn't let herself be controlled by other people and lost herself just because she loved someone.

She wanted to be in a more equal relationship with Leonardo, and she couldn't let Leonardo control her all the time.
