Predestined Bride

At the Jarrett’s.

Vicky leaned against the sofa and focused on her mobile phone. She paid to get Summer’s interview to be the top trending topic. She also paid an army of Weibo trolls to curse Summer. Even those websites that had held different opinions before began to turn hostile to Summer.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Vicky was photographed by the paparazzi. She always thought that it had something to do with Summer.

Now that she saw Summer being sworn, she was much happier.

So what if the paparazzi recorded a video of them? Their conversation in the video was just empty talk. But Summer had admitted that she was hyping in front of the media.

There was no way that ugly woman could beat her!

Vicky went online for a while and then went to sleep contentedly.

However, when she fell asleep, something unexpected happened at midnight.

She was woken up by a call from her friend, “Vicky, someone just posted a few videos and photos of you. What’s going on? Did you offend someone?”

When Vicky heard “videos and photos”, she had an ominous premonition.

She scratched her hair irritably and went on the Internet by her phone.

Everyone on the Internet was discussing her.

Her indecent photos and videos had gone viral online.

Although the Jarrett Group couldn’t compare to the Emersons, it was still a well-known enterprise. In Vicky’s friend group, many women were indiscreet about their private life although they had happy marriages.

In public, they looked like a lady. But actually, they did all sorts of dirty things in secret.

Vicky shook her hands and muttered, “How could they know…”

Many netizens sent her private messages to curse her.

“Bitch! Shameless!”

“How did you get the nerve to ask your sister to clarify and take the blame?”

Vicky was trembling with anger. And she swore at them too.

Suddenly, she thought of Jerome.

It was midnight, so Jerome wouldn’t see these videos and photos now.

But if Jerome saw them, they would be screwed.

She put on her clothes and knocked on Lynn’s door, “Dad, help me! We need to remove the trending…”

On the other side, Summer was on the bed with her computer. She was chatting with Jessica via video.

Jessica was a bully when she was in school. Now that she had become a star, she appeared to be cautious. But her love for drama remained unchanged.

She excitedly read the comments of those netizens.

“I knew that Vicky is not a good person. There are so many people helping her get away with it!”

“She looks like a lady. But I didn’t expect that she would be so dissolute!”

“Conspiracy Time. Her sister married into the Emersons because they knew that Vicky was messing around outside. I heard that her sister was not good-looking, but she is pure. Vicky is pretty, but she’s such an easy girl. Who would want to marry her?”

Jessica also felt that this comment made sense, “Summer, I think he has a point. Do you think the Emersons really knew about Vicky’s shit earlier?”

Summer frowned slightly. She hadn’t thought of this possibility before.

She smiled and said, “No matter what, this is exactly what Vicky wants. She can be with Jerome without any pressure.”

Jessica and Jerome were distantly related. Jessica just sneered, “Although Jerome is a moron, he probably isn’t a fan of marrying easy girls.”

…

After chatting with Jessica till midnight, Summer woke up a little later than usual the next morning.

Turning on her computer and going on the Internet, she found that the trending about Vicky’s indecent photos and videos had been removed.

The previous topic tags had all turned black.

There was no need to guess. Summer knew that it must be Lynn.

Ever since she was a kid, they had barely talked to each other. But Lynn loved Vicky with all his heart.

So what if he removed the trending? Those drama-loving netizens had saved the screenshots. They would spread them to more people. Vicky could never shut it down.

Summer had just finished washing and changing when she received a phone call from Jessica.

Jessica said angrily, “That bitch’s trending topic has been removed. I’m going to buy another one and send her back up!”

Jessica changed the name of Vicky to “bitch”.

Summer comforted her, “Don’t be impulsive. Vicky is notorious now. But you have a new movie coming out recently. It’ll get a lot of attention. If someone finds out that you did that, it’ll leave a bad influence on you.”

Jessica said reluctantly, “OK” Then she said, “Come out for lunch. I’m going back to the movie set tomorrow. I’ll pick you up.”

“Alright.”

…

When Summer passed by Leonardo’s study, she couldn’t help but stop.

Yesterday, she did not see Leonardo, so she didn’t know whether “Douglas” was telling the truth about Leonardo being angry.

Suddenly, the door of the study was opened from inside.

Summer took half a step back and raised her head to see the expressionless face of “Douglas”.

She was shocked and asked, “Is your cousin … Is he here?”

“Why are you looking for him?” Leonardo closed the door and leaned against the doorframe to look at her.

His face was a little pale, and he didn’t look good. But his pitch-black eyes were still deep.

Summer shook her head, “Nothing.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and went downstairs.

Suddenly, a muffled sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from behind her.

Summer turned around and saw that “Douglas”, who had been standing straight earlier, fell to the ground.

Summer ran back and wanted to help him up, “Douglas, are you OK?”

Although she hated him very much, it was impossible for her to stand there when something happened to him.

When she looked at him closely, she found that his face was extremely pale. His eyes were closed. His long eyelashes were like folding fans, casting a shadow under his eyes. He looked much more obedient now.

Summer touched his forehead. It was very hot.

“Douglas” was 1. 9 meters tall. She could not move him at all. She ran to the stairs and shouted, “Is anyone there? Come up. Douglas fainted.”

Immediately, a bodyguard came up and took Leonardo to his room.

Soon a doctor came to see him.

Summer stood at the side and watched they were all busy here. But she did not see Leonardo coming. Finding that there was nothing to do, she decided to leave.

Tim hurriedly came in from outside and stopped Summer when he saw that she was about to leave, “Mrs. Emerson, can you stay and take care of Mr. Emerson?”

This “Mr. Emerson” sounded a little strange to Summer, but she did not think too much about it.

“But I still have things to do.” Summer looked at the time and guessed that Jessica was about to arrive.

“Mom, no, please…”

Leonardo, who was lying on the bed, suddenly began to speak nonsense.

Summer turned around and saw a panicked and confused expression on his face. His jaw was clenched and he looked a little fragile.

Her heart softened and she nodded in the end.

There were no maids in the villa. These bodyguards were careless and could not take care of him.
