As Kate exerted strength, the wig was taken off, revealing her hair.
Kate once had incredibly beautiful hair.
But after Kate took off the wig, only sparse hairs could be seen on her head, and Summer could even see her bald scalp.
Summer was shocked, "You..."
Kate said calmly, "Cancer."
Then, she put the wig back on.
She was skilled, as if she had gotten used to doing this.
Summer thought for a while and asked, "Why don't you stay abroad for treatment? The medical conditions are better there."
"There is an old saying 'the falling leaves will return to the roots'." Kate raised her chin, her pride was undiminished. "Although I have lived abroad for so many years, to me, it is just a foreign place. If I die, I want to be buried where I was born."
Summer understood what she meant. Kate had given up on treatment. She was here waiting for death!
The invincible and arrogant Kate, the young lady of the Emerson family, who was envied by countless people, was waiting for her death in such a simple and remote house.
Summer had complicated feelings.
In terms of sympathy, she had none for Kate. But when she thought about it, Kate had never done anything unforgivable to her.
Although Kate separated her from Leonardo for three years, she took care of Rosie well during that time.
If Kate was vicious, she would kill them all.
Kate was not an unforgivable woman, nor was she a kind person.
From another perspective, she was Leonardo's sister and Rosie's aunt.
She was one of the few relatives Leonardo had in this world.
"Summer, do you know what you look like now?" Kate's words wrenched Summer's thoughts away.
Summer subconsciously reached out and touched her face.
Kate said with amusement, "You show sympathy on your face!"
Summer denied, "No, I don't."
"That's good." Kate chuckled, "Even if I am about to die, my life was glorious and much better than yours."
Summer stared at Kate and felt strange for she could see beneath the smile.
If Kate felt that she had no regrets in her glorious life, why would she come back for Leonardo?
Although she no longer worked at the Emerson Group, she still had endless money to squander.
People had the right to be forgiven if they had not made unforgivable mistakes.
Kate probably ... woke up to her senses.
At night, Summer wanted to sleep with Rosie.
However, Rosie still resisted her and slept very late.
Summer guarded at the door until almost eleven o'clock when Rosie fell asleep on the carpet.
Only then did Summer enter. She carried Rosie onto the bed and carefully tucked her in.
She sat by the bed for a while, then got up and went downstairs to get some water.
When she came out of the kitchen, she heard knocks on the door.
It was so late, who could it be?
Summer frowned. Just as she was about to take a look, she heard footsteps.
She turned around and saw the bearded man coming down while dressing himself as he walked.
According to Kate, this bearded man was called Bruce and was a bodyguard.
Summer pursed her lips and did not say anything.
"She just fell asleep. Do you want to go up and take a look?" Summer turned around and asked him.
"Okay." Leonardo nodded.
The two went upstairs one after the other to check Rosie.
When Summer came out, she left a small lamp on in the room.
When she opened the door and entered, she discovered that Rosie, who had fallen asleep, was sitting on the blanket fiddling with something with her head lowered.
"Rosie?"
Summer called out her name. Rosie raised her head and shrank in shock. Then, she quickly returned to the bed and covered herself tightly with the blanket.
Summer turned around and exchanged a glance with Leonardo. She quickly walked to the bedside.
She stretched out her hand tentatively, wanting to loosen the blanket.
However, just as she touched the blanket, she heard Rosie scream.
Summer withdrew her hand as if she was electrocuted.
Leonardo saw her reaction and strode over with his brows knitted. He grabbed the blanket and lifted it.
"What are you doing?" Summer spoke up, wanting to push him off.
But nobody could stop Leonardo from doing what he wanted to do.
On the bed sheet, Rosie curled up and didn't look at them.
Leonardo stretched out his long arm and picked Rosie up.
Rosie frowned and resisted, just like when Summer hugged her. She waved her little chubby fist at Leonardo.
