Summer looked at Stanley and then turned to look at Leonardo.
Leonardo remained sober from the beginning to the end, so he did not know what Stanley wanted him to feel.
However, Summer knew what Stanley meant.
If Leonardo hadn't pinched her hand, she would have been hypnotized.
It was hard to describe that feeling. For a while, Summer felt she was not who she was. The surroundings were very quiet. There was a vast expanse of whiteness. She did not know where she was going or what she was going to say.
Stanley stared at Leonardo with a serious expression.
Leonardo leaned lazily back in his chair, and said casually, "But I can understand. After all, you are only a psychiatrist. Although hypnosis and psychology seem to closely related, they are not the same."
Stanley still looked like crap.
His lips curled in a forced smile. "Indeed, I'm sorry to be so unskillful."
Stanley had always been calm. Summer only saw him panic when he was with Leonardo.
Ordinary person was no match for Leonardo.
Leonardo said indifferently, "You have to be sorry."
Leonardo was not inclined to mince his words.
Summer couldn't help but turn to look at him.
He casually stood up, with his hands in his pockets.
"Let's go," he said to Summer.
Summer was at a loss for a moment and then said, "You go first."
She still wanted to ask Stanley something. She had to figure it out before she left.
Leonardo looked at her and then at Stanley. Suddenly, he turned around and sat down. "Just ask."
Summer noticed a flicker of doubt in his eyes. He seemed to think she would cheat on him with Stanley...
Summer bit her lips and said coldly, "It is none of your business."
She had tried her best to forbear recently. Leonardo had been quite rude since he lost his memory.
So, when he looked at her with suspicion, she couldn't bear it anymore.
Leonardo's face immediately darkened.
"It's none of my business?" Leonardo sneered.
"Summer, do you dare to say it again?"
"It's none of your business," Summer said with determination.
After saying that, she looked into Leonardo's eyes.
There was no harm to have a try.
It was the first time she dared to repeat the words and make Leonardo angry.
That made her feel much better right away.
Leonardo glared at Summer with a very ugly look on his face.
Stanley said, "Actually, it's no big deal. Mr.
Emerson can know it."
Summer turned to look at Stanley. He smiled, "Summer, three years ago, before you gave birth to you baby girl in Australia, did you see someone fighting one night? You called the police, right?"
Leonardo sneered, "You weren't so stupid before!"
Summer narrowed her eyes and asked, "You don't have any memories of being with me. How do you know who I used to be?"
In an instant, the car was so silent that they could hear each other's breathing.
Leonardo tightened his grip on the steering wheel. The joints of his fingers were slightly pale. He clenched his jaw and pursed his lips.
Summer continued aggressively, "Has the cat got your tongue?"
After a long time, Leonardo said in a hoarse voice, "I won't talk to stupid women."
"Well, you must have suffered a lot. You have to eat the food cooked by that stupid woman every day and even have a child with her," Summer said in a cold tone and stared at him.
"Summer!" Leonardo angrily stepped on the brakes!
The sound of the car suddenly braked was quite piercing.
Summer looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly, "Leonardo, have you remembered anything? You thought I was stupid these past two days, right? Do you think I can't find it out? I'm not as smart as you, but I'm not brainless!"
"If you are not brainless, you wouldn't treat Stanley as your savior." Leonardo's tone was as cold as hers. "He forestalled Carl to save you. Can't you tell it?"
Summer didn't back down at all. "So what? He indeed saved me. Even though I've been in a vegetative state for three years, he hasn't given up on me. No matter what his purpose is, he is my savior. I owe him a lot! Do you think...?"
Before Summer could finish her words, Leonardo covered her mouth.
She was stunned with her eyes wide open.
Leonardo's face was very close to hers. He lowered his eyes, and she couldn't tell how he felt.
Leonardo pulled her into his arms. He wrapped around her waist with one hand and held her chin with the other. Then he started to kiss her forcefully.
Summer tasted the blood in her mouth. Her lips were broken again.
