His Ugly Bride (Anna and Sebastian)

Chapter 24 Divorce with Leonardo

At the restaurant.

Vicky placed her bag on the table and raised her chin and spoke arrogantly to Summer, "Say what you

want, I have a date with Jerome."

She looked at her newly manicured fingers as she spoke.

She glanced at Summer who has always looked the same, the long dress, unhealthy skin, thick-framed

black glasses, ugly as a toad.

To think that this woman wants to compete with her for a man!

Only those fools on the internet will believe it.

Summer closed her eyes and held on to her glass. She rubbed her hands on the glass and then she

saw that man came in and took a seat behind her.

She casually sent out a previously composed message, Let's begin.

These series of actions were done carefully which was why Vicky didn't notice it.

Summer looked at Vicky and said, "I already apologized on the social media. Please don't make things

difficult for my mother."

She was the same as before.

Vicky laughed coldly. As she had expected, Summer was stupid since young. How could she have

wised up overnight?

"I can go easy on Karen but on one condition. " Vicky crossed her hands and smiled as she won.

"What... what condition?" Summer asked nervously.

"Stupid, why are you so concerned over Karen, she has never regarded you as her daughter."

Summer's hands which were on her lap tightened up and her knuckles started to turn white. She said

bitterly, "She is my mother no matter what. Even if I knew that it was because of you that she begged

me to get married to Leonardo, I'll still agree with it."

Vicky can't stand seeing Summer helpless and weak. When they were young, Summer's studies were

better than her and she was prettier than her. That's why she hated her.

Thereafter Summer became ugly and dumb and she hated her even more.

She felt embarrassed to have a sister such as her.

But then, at least Summer was obedient as a dog who she can make use of.

Vicky smirked, she said softly but venomously, "You are as much of a slut as your mother." Summer

was shocked. Karen married into

the Jarrett family for twenty plus years and she slogged to take care of Vicky. In the end Vicky was not

appreciative but called her a slut!

"You can say what you want about me but please don't say that about my mother. She was genuinely

good for you." Summer was hurt and reminded her softly.

How could Vicky listen to Summer's words? She stared at her and yelled, "Shut up! You don't have to

meddle about my matters. Now you can only do one thing, divorce Leonardo."

"Divorce?" Summer stared with her eyes wide open.

She was half genuine and half pretending.

Summer could anticipate what was her motives before Vicky said.

The Emersons don't care who married Leonardo but they definitely cannot accept Summer reneging on

her agreement, especially when she was "dumb and ugly" and unpresentable.

If she were to mention divorce, it would be an insult to the Emerson family.

The Emersons will never let her off!

This move of Vicky was truly vicious. She made Summer a target of the Emersons and let them vent

their resentment in Summer. In that way, she can stay under the radar and live peacefully with Jerome.

Vicky played with her hair and tucked it behind her ear while exposing a slight pinkish mark on her

neck, "If you can do that, then I will not make things difficult for Karen."

Though Summer wasn't dumb. She could see that the mark was from a kiss. Was she showing off?

Summer took a drink as she felt a lump in her throat.

She wasn't sad that Vicky was with Jerome. She was upset that the person she had been in love with

was just like any other man.

"But the Emersons will never agree to me divorcing Leonardo..." Even if it's a divorce, it can only be

initiated by Leonardo.

"That's your problem. My advice to you is to be an obedient dog, otherwise, I'll make sure you and your

mother suffer."

Vicky can't be bothered to say anything else with Summer. She took out a mirror to touch up her

lipstick, dialed a number, and gently said, "Jerome..."

Summer's expression froze, but her reaction made Vicky happy.

Though she didn't regard Summer as a threat, she felt a sense of achievement when she saw Summer

behaving like a dejected dog. After seeing Vicky driving off, she turned to see the table behind.

The man just waved his phone without speaking. Summer lowered her head to look at her phone and

there were new message notifications.

"I'll send you the videos when I get back."

Summer answered, "Thanks."

She placed down her phone and started to eat.

She was surprised that Vicky had turned into such a person. She liked Vicky a lot when she was

young.

Vicky was pretty and loved to dress up.

That's why she kept following her.

But it appeared that Vicky was heartless. Karen served her tirelessly and now she can call her a slut!

What about Summer who she never

liked? She had thought that there was some affection between Vicky and Karen, but...

Summer had a knot in her stomach and the food wasn't that good. She got up and left.

Leonardo came out of the other room and stopped the paparazzi.

The paparazzi saw Leonardo's high and mighty persona and knew that he was different. He asked

defensively, "What are you doing?"

"Let me have a look." Leonardo said calmly as he looked at his bag.

"I don't understand." This was his tomorrow's headline news. He can't simply let anyone see it.

"Really? Do you believe that I can blacklist you from the entire entertainment industry in Hoover City?"

Leonardo's expression didn't change and his voice was calm, devoid of any emotions.

The paparazzi just realized that not only was this man handsome and cool, but his business suit was

also custom made with fine material. It was obvious that he was rich and important. He exudes strength

and authority.

He doesn't doubt Leonardo's ability and obligingly showed Leonardo the video. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The scene and audio were very clear. He listened intently to the conversation between both women.
