His Ugly Bride (Anna and Sebastian) novel Chapter 700

Douglas fished round in his pockets for his driving license. After a long while, he found it and gave it to her.

It was crumpled, as if he got it from the garbage can.

Summer glanced at him and allowed him to drive.

As soon as Summer nodded, Douglas ran to the other side and opened the door near the passenger seat, "Summer, please.'¹

After Summer got on the car, she teased Douglas, "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"No. The cafeteria staff was all men except for one old lady. How could I find a girlfriend?" Douglas said miserably to Summer.

Douglas saw a cake shop by the roadside. He said excitedly, "Summer, I want to have some

cake."

Summer signaled for him to stop. They went to the shop for a cake.

On the way back home, Douglas stopped at every food shop, like a greedy little child.

Summer smiled and said, "I believe you've had a hard time in school."

"Yeah. Indeed." Douglas seized every chance to gain her sympathy.

Summer stocked a lot of food in her house for the New Year. After arriving at her place, Summer served a lot of foods to Douglas as a treat.

Douglas took a bag of beef jerky and walked around the room while eating, sized the room.

He looked around and said in a seemingly serious tone, "Summer, your apartment is too small. After I make money, I'll give you a big house."

Summer laughed. He was still a kid and was always on a whim.

She glanced at Douglas and said, "It isn't my apartment, I rent it."

Douglas was surprised.

Summer tried not to laugh and nodded at Douglas.

Douglas walked over and sat down beside Summer, "Although I don't have much money, I can afford to buy a place for you."

Summer burst into laughter, "Why do you insist on buying me a place to live?"

Douglas became very serious. He looked at Summer and said solemnly, "Because you treat me well. I want to repay you."

Summer thought about it carefully. She felt that she was not particularly nice to Douglas. But Douglas had always liked her.

Summer shook her head and refused, "Thank you for your kindness. There is no need and I do have money."

Douglas obviously did not believe it. Summer said in an emphatic tone, "I mean it."

"I mean it, too." Douglas put down the jerky and took a pack of marshmallows.

Summer did not argue with Douglas, and went to the refrigerator to see what she could cook for him tonight.

Actually, after so many years, Summer didn't know Douglas' preference in eating.

Douglas didn't take himself as a guest. He ran to the refrigerator and pointed at the foods inside. "This and this. Oh, all of them look nice..."

Summer was relieved, and things became much easier now.

Because Douglas would leave for Leonardo after dinner, Summer finished cooking before

five o'clock.

Douglas had a gigantic appetite and ate quickly.

The door opened. Summer was about to walk in, but saw Leonardo walking out of the elevator. Summer was surprised and turned to look at Douglas.

Douglas stood half a step behind her and looked at Leonardo indifferently. There was not a hint of joy in his eyes.

Summer hid her shock. Douglas always changed the subject when she talked about taking him to visit Leonardo. Summer guessed he didn't want to see Leonardo at all.

Well, she was right.

Leonardo stepped out of the elevator and looked at Douglas, pulling a long face. He said to Douglas coldly, "You secretly came back and even fought with others in Golden Cauldron Club. You're afraid to see me and hide here. Douglas, this is all you learned at school?"

Douglas sneered, 'Tm not afraid. I just don't want to see you."

Summer whispered, "Douglas, don't say that!"

"Summer, I don't want to tell it to you because I know you will be sad if I mention him. I knew that he abandoned you for that woman. He has made a fool of you for the past three years..."

Summer was in shock. She did not expect that Douglas actually considered Leonardo as such a man.

"Douglas, shut up!"

But then, Leonardo suddenly gave Douglas a kick.

Douglas, who was about six feet, dropped down by Leonardo's kick. It could be seen from this hard kick that Leonardo was really angry.

Summer shouted, "Leonardo!" No matter how angry he was, he shouldn't do that to Douglas!

She took a deep breath and did not say more. She turned around and helped Douglas up.

She whispered to Douglas, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Douglas covered his stomach and shook his head. He endured the pain and forced a smile. Then he glared at Leonardo and said to Summer, "No one can beat him in a fight. He knows how to give others great pain without taking their lives."
