The conversation between Summer and Rosie got nowhere. Summer did not achieve her goal, nor did she say what she wanted to say.
Breaking bad news to children could be easy, or difficult as well. They were prone to believe what they were told, and they were vulnerable to bad influence.
The next day, Summer planned to meet Trevin after she dropped off Rosie at the kindergarten.
Now that they had already filed a lawsuit, Leonardo would receive the court summon in a few days.
What she and Trevin needed to do now was to find solid evidence and win this lawsuit.
After Summer watched Rosie enter the kindergarten, she returned to the car.
Just as she sat in the car, she heard a notification sound of news feed from her phone. Summer took out her phone while fastening her seat belt.
Just as she was about to delete the news, she suddenly stopped at sight of the headline.
"Jessica was injured at the event yesterday..."
Jessica was injured? Summer hastily clicked the news and read.
There were only a few pictures with obscure words. Summer directly dialed Jessica's number.
The phone rang for a long time but no one answered. Summer hung up the phone and sent a text message to Jessica. "The news says that you are injured. What happened? Are you really injured?"
Jessica quickly replied, "I'm fine. It's only a small scrape."
"Really?" Although the media were prone to exaggerate things, Summer was a little worried.
Jessica replied, 'Tm fine. Don't worry."
Summer did not believe her, texting, "Then why didn't you answer my phone?"
Jessica did not reply. Summer sent another message, "Which hospital? Send me the address. Hurry up."
After half a minute, Jessica sent her the address of the hospital.
Summer looked at the address of the hospital and sighed slightly. She knew that Jessica was lying to her.
Although Jessica looked simple and careless, she was actually very considerate. When something really happened to her, she did not like to tell anyone, as she was afraid that others would worry about her.
Summer drove to the hospital where Jessica was staying.
Jessica was staying in a VIP ward. There were two bodyguards outside the door. Fortunately, Jessica's agent was there, and she knew Summer immediately.
When she saw Summer, she greeted, "Hello, Ms. Summer."
"Hello. How's Jessica?" Summer asked.
The agent hesitated for a moment and said, "Come in and take a look."
Summer got worried. If it was just a minor injury, the agent would tell her directly. Now she said nothing and asked Summer to go in and see, which meant Jessica could be seriously injured.
Summer pushed open the door and entered the ward.
Jessica was lying on the bed. When she heard the noise, she turned her head and saw Summer. She smiled and greeted her with her bright voice as usual, "Summer, you've come so quickly!"
Summer did not speak. She stood in front of the bed, looking at Jessica with a frown.
Summer pondered for a moment and said, "It's good for you to rest for a while."
Even if Jessica took a rest for half a year, she didn't need to worry about her job. She did not intend to be a star with high popularity from the beginning, so she did not wish to stay in the spotlight all the time. As a result, she only needed to focus on keeping up the good quality of each work.
Moreover, Carl would give Jessica jobs.
They seemed to be on foul terms, but they had been entangled with each other for so many years, and the affection between them was deep.
Even if it was not love, it was some other feelings.
Jessica moved her neck and said, "It is boring to stay in the hospital. Come and chat with me if you have time."
"I'll come when I have time." Summer looked around and said, "Didn't you tell your family?"
"My parents are traveling abroad." Jessica said pitifully.
Summer laughed, "I don't plan to write any new script these days, and I'll bring you soup every day."
"You're even better to me than my mother..." Jessica was so touched that she almost called Summer Mom.
Summer chatted with her for a while and left.
When she got out of the ward, the agent came back from outside with something in her hand, "Ms. Summer, are you leaving?"
"Yes." Summer looked at the bag in the agent's hand for a while, asking as if something came across her mind, "How is the investigation on Jessica's injury? Do you have any results?"
The agent shook her head. "It looks like an accident, but this mistake is so serious. We have cooperated with this organizer for a few times, and they have been rigorous..."
