All Chapters of The President's Darling: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

"My dear Summer, don't you know that I'm crazy? Why would I listen to reason?"Summer was so terrified by Susanne's threat that she kept her guard up."What do you want?" Summer asked warily. "Summer, if you follow me to a place, I won't hurt you. However, only two of us can go there. We must escape the bodyguards first."Summer wasn't stupid. If she listened to Susanne and left the bodyguards, wouldn't that give Susanne a chance to do whatever she wanted? If Susanne led her to a secluded place, killed her, and buried her body, she would disappear without a trace. She regretted her decision. If she had known what Susanne had been planning on doing, she wouldn't have gone out with her. Summer had dug her own grave. She didn't know what to do. The best thing she could do was escape quickly. As long as she ran to the bodyguards, Susanne wouldn't try to kill her. With that thought in mind, Summer immediately made a run for it. There were many people in the beautiful city. Su

She also couldn't tell Caroline that Susanne was schizophrenic and wanted to harm her on purpose. Even if there was substantial evidence to prove that, Summer had already promised James she wouldn't tell anyone about it. Hence, she could only lower her head in silence. Caroline asked, "What's wrong? Aren't you usually sharp-tongued? It's not like I'm not giving you a chance to explain yourself first. I want to hear what you have to say.""I have nothing to say." Summer lowered her head. "Do you admit to framing Susanne?""Yes.""Why did you do that?"Summer wanted to curse at the unfairness of it all. Why would she frame Susanne? The latter had nothing to do, so she'd set her up!However, she couldn't say that to Caroline. Things had escalated to this point, and nothing she did could resolve the situation. So, she resorted to keeping quiet. Caroline said sternly, "Since you're remaining silent, I'll take it that you had personal grievances. Yet, we must punish you accor

James cut to the chase. He stared at her as he questioned, "I know what happened tonight. Why did you do it?""James, what are you talking about?"Susanne played dumb. If she was exposed for messing with Summer, she might give James a bad impression. What she didn't realize was that James already had a foul impression of her.James inched closer to Susanne as he spoke sternly, "Are you still going to lie? I warned you not to mess with Summer, but you threatened to kill her tonight. I'm very disappointed in you.""James—""Why did you do it? Summer has never treated you badly, nor did she ever hurt you." James was furious as rage burned in his dark eyes. This was the first time Susanne had seen him like this.She stepped back and explained, "You've misunderstood. I didn't do anything—""Are you still making excuses?"James was giving her immense pressure, and the air around him felt heavy, as though it were weighing her down. Susanne was frightened. James no longer seemed li

Susanne closed her eyes and grew calm after her realization. "James, I understand now. I'm a family member to you, and so are you to me. I won't have any other thoughts from now on.""That's good, Susanne."James was glad. At least Susanne was no longer obsessed with him or thought that her feelings were romantic love. But his positive feelings didn't continue for long.The next second, Susanne said, "James, since we're cousins, I think I have the responsibility to help you find an excellent wife. Summer doesn't fit that standard."James' eyes darted toward her, feeling speechless. Susanne's feelings toward him had changed, but she hadn't accepted Summer.He wanted to say something, but Susanne stood up excitedly. She declared, "Summer's not qualified to join the Quigley family."I know Dad and Aunt Caroline have certain opinions of her, and I have to say that I agree with them. Summer's status and credentials—nothing about her is a match for you, James. If you are to marry, it s

Howe's offer was quite attractive. He would solve one of Summer's greatest problems if he could drive Susanne away.Summer asked, "Can you do that?""Of course I can, but I need you to work with me. Three days later, you must lure her to a campsite in the suburbs of Rosseera City. If you can do that, my plan will succeed."He sounded confident about his plan, yet Summer wanted to know what exactly he would do. She asked, but he only said, "It's a secret. You can't know what it is yet. If you know about it, the plan might fail."Summer grew doubtful. Why must she lure Susanne to the campsite? How would that make Susanne return to the Yanceys' home earlier? She couldn't understand.Howe stepped forward and patted her shoulder. "Rest assured, Summer. If you do as I say, we can definitely make her leave. After all, it's not good for any of us if she stays here."Summer seemed to sense something. Howe said that it wasn't good for "any of them" if Susanne stayed.Summer could understa
