The blonde man sneered and pointed at Summer, anger choked his words.
Almost all the bystanders were accusing him.
Two of the young boys from H Country walked up to Summer and asked her, 'Are you alright? Are you from H Country?"
Summer nodded. "Yes, I am."
One of the boys helped her pick up her suitcase, while the other reached out to help her up. "I think you're going home, so are we. I wonder if we'll be on the same flight."
Perhaps it was because they were Chinese, Summer did not feel too much rejection towards them. Another reason was that the two boys looked young. They should be students studying in Country M.
The two boys looked very polite. It seemed
that they came from a well-off family, so Summer was a little less vigilant.
"Thank you." Summer thanked them. Then she took the suitcase over and walked on.
The two boys followed. One of them said with a concerned expression, "Why don't you wait with us? Do you have any other friends?"
"Actually, my friend is arriving soon. Thank you." Summer thanked them again and left with her suitcase.
Since Summer said so, the two boys did not insist and made way for her to leave.
Summer walked around and picked a place where there were many people.
After sitting down, she raised her wrist and checked time.
It was five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was about five or six o'clock in the morning in H Country. It was too early for Leonard to get up.
After thinking for a while, Summer sent a text message to Leonard. "The plane will take off at night."
After sending the text message, she did not expect that Leonard would immediately reply or call her, but Leonard called her soon after it.
Just as Summer was about to answer the phone, someone suddenly reached out and pulled her phone away very nimbly.
Summer suddenly looked up and saw a completely unexpected person.
"Vicky?" Summer's voice was trembling with disbelief. She almost forgot about Vicky. After Vicky made a scene last time, she disappeared. Summer never thought that she would run into Vicky here.
Summer thought of the blonde man just now. Did Vicky ask him to stall her?
With one hand across her chest, Vicky held Summer's phone with the other hand. She glanced at the phone and then looked at Summer. Vicky's smile was eerie, as if it was poisonous. "Do you want to answer Leonard's call?”
Summer's face was cold as she stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the phone."
"Give it to you?" Vicky hung up on Leonard and immediately reached out her hand.
Someone immediately handed her a drink. In front of Summer, Vicky threw the phone into the drink. Then, she handed the cup to the bodyguard behind her and said, "Give her the phone."
The bodyguard took out the phone from the drink and handed it to Summer.
The phone had been soaked in the drink and it had crashed now.
Even so, Summer still reached out and took the phone.
She noticed that Vicky's assistant and a few bodyguards were standing behind Vicky.
Summer was in a foreign country, and she was a complete stranger here, while Vicky had brought so many people...
To her surprise, Summer would listen to him and come back. She had never seen been so meek before.
Did she suffer any grievances outside? Leonardo hadn't seen her for days....
The wrinkles between Leonard's eyebrows smoothed out and he called her again.
However, he did not get through this time. Summer had just hung up on him. Why didn't he get through this time?
With a serious look, Leonardo got out of bed in his pajamas. As he walked towards the study room, he kept calling Summer.
Had she already boarded the plane so he couldn't get through?
But Summer sent him a text message, saying that she booked a flight tonight.
Leonardo turned on his computer and checked the latest flight from Country M to Hoover City.
He discovered that the latest flight would set off two hours later!
Leonard's hand, which was holding the mouse, trembled. He stared at the flight information on the computer screen and made a call to Tim.
"Mr. Emerson." Tim answered the phone very quickly. Although he was woken up, there wasn't a trace of impatience in his tone.
"Check the latest flight from Country M to Hoover City." Leonard thought he might be wrong. Perhaps a flight just took off, and there was no record online.
Tim knew that Summer went to Country M. After hearing it, he immediately thought of Summer and got up to help him check the flight information without any delay.
A rustling sound came from Tim, and then his voice could be heard. "The latest flight will take off in two hours. The last flight left an hour ago."
Hearing this, Leonard turned over the keyboard in front of him with one hand and said in a frighteningly deep voice, "Get me a ticket to Country M as soon as possible."
