Chapter 139

Author: Good Night
The driver, Edwin Moore, dropped Summer off on a small road near the school.

He handed her a business card and said, "Miss, this is my number. Mr. Hunt said that you can call me at any time if you ever find it inconvenient to call your family's driver. I'll be there right away."

Summer hesitated for a moment before she took the card. "Thank you."

Nearby, street vendors were already busy selling breakfast, and steam was rising into the crisp morning air.

Summer had planned to slip back into school through the side gate. But she glanced at the bustling scene.

She had never bought breakfast from a place like this in her past life. Looking at the busy people and the white mist surrounding them, she felt a sense of peace. Even in her past life, that feeling was a rare one.

She walked to a stall and bought two breakfast wraps before she walked toward the school.

The moment she reached the building, she saw Robin frantically searching for her.

He hurried over. "Ms. Hartford, where did

    "Yes." Summer nodded calmly.After learning how to act, the most practical place to use her acting skills was in front of Henry, all to keep her relationship a secret.At that moment, Phoebe came over with a jug of juice. Hearing what Henry said, she glanced at Summer, who stuck out a tongue at her.It seemed like out of everyone present, only Henry was still in the dark."I had someone buy him a watch as a token of gratitude," Henry said.Summer was speechless.Phoebe suppressed her laughter, set down her juice, and hurried off."Why is she laughing?" Henry frowned as he stared at Phoebe."Was she?" Summer feigned ignorance. "Grandpa, you shouldn't drink juice. It's too sweet. Let me brew some black tea for you!""Alright. It's been so long since I've drunk tea brewed by you!" Henry said happily, rubbing his hands together.Robin let out a soft sigh, pitying Henry for a moment.Henry still thought he was guarding his precious granddaughter from the wolves, but a wolf had al

    Even if Eridanus diluted five percent of Hartford Group's shares, when divided among all the shareholders, it wouldn't outweigh the future profit Eridanus could bring.That was simple math that anyone could do.Summer had done her own detailed calculations before proposing the current price. Of course, the cash wasn't the most important part. It was the five percent stake.After finishing their morning tea, Summer took Henry and Robin shopping for clothes.At first, everyone was in good spirits.When they reached the last store, Summer showed Henry some high-end custom styles from last season. At that moment, a pair of customers recognized her. "Isn't that Summer Hartford?"Summer glanced at them and noticed they'd already pulled out their phones to take pictures, which didn't make her feel very comfortable.Henry, having changed into new clothes, came out of the fitting room and noticed what was going on as well.The Hartford family never enjoyed showing off. The most extravag

    Summer rushed downstairs in a hurry."What's the rush? I already called the cafe and had them set everything aside. Nothing is more important than my precious granddaughter getting enough sleep!" Henry said cheerfully.Summer walked over with a smile. "Alright, then. Let's go have some morning tea!"This time, she brought Robin and Phoebe along with them.Robin was extremely busy these days since Henry had insisted on him getting involved in some of the company's business affairs.It was clear that Luke wasn't interested in managing the company long-term, but Summer would eventually need someone by her side to help her. Henry didn't trust anyone else enough, so Robin was the only choice."Mr. Cohen, thank you for your hard work." Summer raised her teacup as a toast to Robin before they started eating.Robin gave a quiet, restrained response.Henry chuckled. "You're the only one who can handle Robin. Switch to anyone else, and he wouldn't even look at them."Robin put down his

    Summer really loved the feeling of being protected by Mason.The car drove her all the way home. The last time she was back was when she visited during the New Year.As the car pulled into the garage, she immediately spotted Henry and Phoebe waiting for her. The moment she got out, she hurried over and hugged them both."Grandpa, didn't I tell you not to wait up? You're not young anymore, so why are you staying up late?" Summer scolded gently.Henry chuckled as he gave her a once-over. "You must be exhausted, Summer. You look like you've lost weight again."Summer didn't know what the proper response was. "Grandpa, you say that every time I come home. If you're right, I must be a stick by now.""You brat!" Henry shook her head. Then, he took her hand and led her inside. "Was the filming tiring? Did you enjoy it? Is it affecting your studies?"Henry peppered her with questions all the way in, and Summer patiently answered each one.Phoebe had known Summer was coming home, so she

    Of course, Summer had no idea that another wave of commotion had quietly erupted around her.She spent her days filming and her nights sweetly wrapped up with Mason. She had never been this happy in her entire life.In the blink of an eye, filming at this location wrapped up, and she was going to return to the original set to continue filming.She scheduled a day off in between.Since returning to school after the New Year, she hadn't seen Henry. He had mentioned several times that he wanted to visit her, but she had refused every time. He was getting old, and Summer couldn't bear for him to waste his rare days of rest rushing around just to see her.Naturally, Mason traveled with her.Her final scene ended late at night, and she booked a red-eye flight home.No crew members traveled with her, but Kristen said nothing of it since she knew Mason would be accompanying her.There were very few passengers on the late-night flight, and Mason and Summer were the only ones in first cl

    The scoop was quickly spread around.After making that phone call, the paparazzo, Jason Seeman, thought the whole matter no longer concerned him.But no one expected the matter to take such a bizarre turn.Just as major media platforms were preparing to publish headlines about Summer's bodyguard assaulting someone without cause, their editors received urgent calls from their higher-ups, instructing them to immediately pull out the draft.At the same time, Jason was summoned back to the company.He was an industry veteran, so he knew that a celebrity's bodyguard assaulting someone usually meant public opinion would favor the victim.The celebrity would usually be dragged down by the scandal as well.That kind of scoop was usually dirt that his higher-ups could flip and sell to rival agencies, making quite a lot of money. It would definitely be way more than what the camera was worth.Jason thought he'd be praised. But to his surprise, the moment he stepped into the office smugly
