In the presidential suite.Mark put Summer on the settee. When he looked at her pink cheeks, anger built up inside him.“You saw the wine coming your way, right? Why didn’t you dodge?”His voice was deep. When he spoke, there was a familiar and pleasing scent. He really sounded angry.But Summer somehow felt it pleasant to the ears. She wrinkled her nose and looked up at him with sparkling eyes. “I am dizzy.”Her voice was as soft as the summer breeze, her expression telling him she felt hurt. She bit her lip, her face reddening with a tinge of fascinating charm.Mark swallowed involuntarily, reaching to loosen his tie, which he felt too restricted. “Go take a shower and then take a good rest. Call me if anything.”“Okay.”After he left, she took a shower, and then drank two large glasses of water. She felt better after a long rest.After the incident, Amara would certainly be too afraid to make trouble again.Summer got changed and took a nap on the settee for three hours. S

Everyone except Raine was present for breakfast in the Valentine mansion.Yvette looked up at Mark. “Your grandma called this morning. She asked you to visit her in Norwood.”“Did she say anything else?” He stopped what he was doing. His deep voice had a touch of gentleness.“She said that she hadn’t seen you for a long time and missed you. But she is busy and can’t come. So she asked you to go to Norwood instead.”“Okay.” He gently replied. “I will go with Summer tomorrow.”‘Summer?’As far as Summer could remember, this was the first time Mark called her by her name. It felt amazingly pleasing to the ears.Yvette’s expression changed slightly, but she hid it well.“Without Summer here, Mom will feel lonely in this vast mansion.” She made a lovely excuse for Summer.What else could Summer say when Yvette had already said so?Summer snapped back and let out a smile. “Mom has a point. I will stay.”Pleased with the answer, Yvette patted her on her shoulder. It looked like thi

The middle-aged man was disappointed. He thought he had finally met a girl he liked, and he did not want to miss the opportunity.He could no longer chat with her, but that was okay. The most important thing was to exchange contact information with her.But she was asleep, and he could not just wake her up like that. So he felt was like a cat on hot bricks and stole glances at her.Mark slammed the document folder close and sank back in the soft leather seat. He then crossed his legs, and he looked at that man opposite the aisle. “Can I help you?”The middle-aged man was startled, trying to figure out what he meant.Mark frowned with his chin lifted. He raised an eyebrow as he gently tapped the business card on the table. “Don’t you want to pass your business card to my wife. Do you need help?”The middle-aged man had an awkward look on his face for a second before he looked away silently.Two hours later, the plane landed at the airport in Norwood.Summer was full of energy ag

Mark was walking ahead at a steady pace.He was tall and wearing a black knee-length coat, which looked great on him.Many female tourists could not take their eyes off this good-looking man. Some even took out their cell phones and snapped photos of him secretly.Summer looked at his man and shook her head because his men had now become the center of attention. Meanwhile, she was out of breath and slowed down.Before long, she had fallen a distance behind him.Mark stopped in his tracks and turned around when he did not hear her footsteps and gasping behind him.Summer sat on the stairs and looked elsewhere. The snow on the ground did not bother her at all.Mark frowned. He walked back and reached to help her up from the ground. “I thought you were the one wanting to come here? Why aren’t you moving?”“I am tired. I don’t want to walk anymore. No one says that we must get to the top. I think the scenery here is pretty good.”The warmth of his palm and fingers quickly warmed h

“Of course, I know. I raised you and Mark. It is good if you and Mark could be together. I have gone through a lot in the past three years. I am not so obstinately insistent anymore. You are still young. I don’t want you to live your life with regret and hate me because of this.Raine sneered. She did not feel the slightest joy but a hint of hatred.“It would have been nice had you told me this three years ago. But now it is too late.” Mark was married, and she was engaged.“I have never understood Mark, even as a father. But one thing is for sure; he marries that woman not because he loves her. It is not set in stone, and it is never too late. You know better than anyone else if he still has feelings for you.”“Things are not that simple. There is still your wife there I should think about.”She would never forget how Yvette lay in front of her, blood oozing out as Yvette cut herself with a blade.“You could not handle her paranoid and blunt behavior, but not Mark. Otherwise, sh
