It had indeed been a long time since she had seen the sunshine. She felt so warm. It was as if she was isolated from the world, and she was a prisoner.
This was the freedom she hadn't experienced for a long time.
Lester's voice sounded again, "I have two guests today."
Summer paused for a moment when hearing this, but she pretended to be calm. So she did not open her eyes. She was still enjoying the sunshine and leaning against the back of her wheelchair.
"However, I'm not sure when these two guests will arrive. Why don't we make a bet?" Lester's voice was soft, as if he was chatting with a friend.
Hearing this, Summer suddenly opened her eyes and sat straight to look at Lester.
She asked him, "What do you want to bet on?"
She was almost certain that one of the so-called guests Lester mentioned was definitely Leonardo.
Lester was really hard to deal with. After Stanley escaped successfully, in order to prevent Leonardo from making trouble, he even took the initiative and thought of a way to make Leonardo come to see him.
"What do you want to bet on?" Lester looked at Summer with a wry expression.
Lester's expression was extremely serious. Summer felt that thing wouldn't be so simple. So she asked, "Can I bet on anything?"
Sure enough, the next moment, Lester smiled and said, "Then I'll bet on your life."
Before Summer could figure out what was happening, someone stepped forward and tied
her up.
Summer was tied firmly to the wheelchair. Her eye popped and she stared at Lester. Then, she sneered. "You are such a hypocrite!"
Lester said with disappointment, "So it looks like you can't guess it. Since that's the case, I can tell you if you tell me you want to know."
"I don't want to know." Summer glanced at him and refused.
Lester's face darkened slightly. After a while, he slowly said, "You are as stubborn as an old friend of mine. No wonder Stanley likes you, and Trevin likes you too."
Hearing Lester mention Trevin, Summer was stunned for a moment. Trevin was like a normal prodigal.
Summer had been controlled by Lester for experiments during this period of time. She was unable to find any connection between Trevin and Lester. It was hard to imagine that they were father and son.
"I know you've got along well with Trevin. Do you want to consider being Trevin's girlfriend? He is a good man." Lester was so shrewd. He naturally knew everything about his own son.
Lester even knew every detail that happened between Trevin and Summer. It was not surprising at all.
