Summer didn't know the reason, but Mason would probably play the same role he did in her previous life. He would be a silent guardian. He wouldn't break that thin boundary between them, and she wouldn't, either.It was fine."Does it still hurt?" Mason asked.Summer was taken aback for a moment before she realized he was talking about the injury on her back."It doesn't hurt anymore." She shook her head."I'll have someone take you home. It's pouring outside, and it's already dark. It's not safe," Mason said.Summer shook his head. "There's no need. My grandpa will be mad if he finds out."Mason nodded. "Go on, then."Summer opened the door and walked out. She had barely taken two steps when Conrad rushed over. "Miss, I'm so sorry for what happened earlier. I was just blind and ignorant. Please don't take what I said earlier to heart."Summer kept walking straight ahead.Conrad hurried after her. "And I've chased all those women away. Don't be jealous because of what happen

Summer raised an eyebrow and shrugged. "It would be too boring if she just disappeared. I'd rather keep her around and have some fun. Mr. Hunt, you should just focus on yourself instead of meddling in my affairs. Your life is a lot messier than mine.""Ms. Hartford, you're quite different from the rumors," Mason said slowly.She was far from just different. She was basically a different person."The rumors also say that you're a monster. So, is Mason Hunt a monster?" Summer cupped her chin with her palm as she asked Mason."That's hard to say," Mason said with one hand on the steering wheel. He leaned slightly toward her. "Since you know that the rumors call me a monster, why don't you seem scared of me at all?"As he suddenly leaned in, Summer had a brief moment where she felt like she fell into his deep, mesmerizing eyes.Her mind went blank for a moment. She even forgot to look away.Their eyes locked with one another. The faint smile on Mason's lips slowly disappeared as wel

Mason's expression turned slightly colder. Then, he pushed the box of pasta toward Summer.He replied calmly, "I'm not too sure. It was probably one of my uncle's people."Summer felt her heart stop.Even though she had known for a long time that Mason's family was eager to get rid of him, hearing him say it himself felt different."Why?" she asked with some hesitation.Why did they want to kill him? After all, since Mason took over the company, he had only made it stronger and more profitable.Mason responded, "I never asked. It's probably for money."Summer pursed her lips and didn't continue the topic. "Try it and see if it's good."Mason took a mouthful.He had never had something like this before. It took a while for him to fully understand the taste, but he still nodded immediately. "It's really good.""Then, have some more! There are other snacks, too," Summer offered enthusiastically.Mason lowered his gaze and ate slowly.Meanwhile, Summer had a foxy, cunning smile

It was still pouring outside when Summer rushed downstairs. Right as she reached the first floor, she spotted a tall figure standing by the entrance.When he saw her, Kyle hurried over. "Ms. Hartford, your laptop."Summer recognized him as the man who sent her home the night she was reborn."Thank you." She took the laptop from him.Then, she glanced around.She had rushed down so quickly. Did Mason leave that fast?"And this." Kyle handed her an umbrella.Summer reached out and took it from him."It will be difficult to get a taxi with this rain. I've prepared a car for you that's waiting outside. You can leave whenever you want," Kyle continued."Thank you. Sorry for the trouble." Summer gripped the umbrella tightly.Kyle didn't say much else. He didn't even mention that Mason was the one who had him prepare everything. He nodded slightly before turning away, opening up his own umbrella as he walked into the rain.Summer stood downstairs for a moment before she slowly made

"Ms. Hartford, your safety is far more important," Robin said sternly.As he said that, his sharp gaze swept the surroundings.A few students shuddered under his gaze."I've been looking into some school bullying cases recently. Some of them even result in fatalities," Robin said.Summer knew that Robin could be incredibly stubborn, so she gave up on convincing him. "I'm going to class.""Alright." Robin watched as she entered the classroom before he got into the car and left.The moment Summer stepped inside, the previously noisy classroom fell silent.She had a blank expression on her face as she walked to her desk, which had been replaced with a brand-new one.Several students from the back rows were missing, including Becca and Annie."Summer, I heard you were injured?" Lindsey walked over to Summer."It's nothing," Summer replied flatly."Annie and Becca have withdrawn from school, and a few others who used to bully you took sick leave," Lindsey said softly.Summer loo
