Predestined Bride

But when he thought of what Vicky had done last time, he drove back.

As a result, he saw this good show.

Apart from his mother, this was the first time he had been protected by a woman.

This feeling was wonderful.

…

Summer was wearing shoes with thick heels of three or four centimeters high. The stepping didn’t hurt much.

However, Vicky was unreconciled. Summer had always been humble to her, but she dared to step on her now!

When Vicky ran into the Jarrett Group’s hall, Summer had just arrived at the elevator. Summer turned around and smiled provocatively at Vicky before entering the elevator.

When Vicky arrived there, the elevator was already up.

Summer went straight to Lynn’s office after leaving the elevator.

She remembered that Lynn called her last Friday and said he would talk about her skipping work at the company on Monday.

After a while, Lynn arrived.

Behind him was Vicky.

They didn’t know Summer was in the office beforehand. Vicky was still complaining to Lynn, “Dad, Summer has gone too far. Although I lose my temper sometimes, why does she treat me like that? I’m the manager of the project department of the company. It’s fine if she doesn’t respect me. But I’m afraid she doesn’t even respect you…”

Summer sat on the sofa and tilted her head to look at them innocently as they walked in.

What Vicky said was wrong. She was not bad-tempered, but malicious.

“Vicky, what you said is wrong. The person I respect the most is our father.”

Hearing Summer’s voice, they discovered that there was someone else in the office.

Vicky’s eyes widened as if she had seen a ghost. “Why are you here?”

“Dad has something to tell me, so I came here to wait for him.” Summer smiled innocently.

Vicky believed that Summer had always pretended to be obedient before.

Lynn had just heard Vicky’s complaint against Summer, and thus he was angry. Upon seeing Summer, he looked sullen. “Who allow you to go to the president’s office?”

“Sorry.” Summer stood up and walked out, closing the door.

Lynn and Vicky looked at each other, not knowing what Summer was up to.

In the next moment, Summer knocked on the door.

Summer said politely, “President, I’m Summer. May I come in now?”

Lynn felt a headache out of anger. He sat down behind his desk. He raised his hand and pointed at the door, “Vicky, let her in.”

Vicky was as angry as Lynn. She reluctantly shouted at the door, “Come in.”

Summer did not open the door.

Vicky walked over and opened the door, but she didn’t see Summer.

She gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger as she turned to look at Lynn, “Dad, she’s gone.”

Summer had already returned to her cubicle.

She did not see Stone.

After a while, Stone walked over and said, “Everyone, get ready. There will be a meeting later.”

At the routine meeting on Monday.

As a junior employee, Summer had nothing to do with the meeting.

However, not long after the meeting ended, Lynn and Vicky followed Stone to the market department.

Summer had an intuition that they were likely to come for her.

Vicky looked at Summer and said seriously, “Summer, come over.”

What she guessed was right.

Summer glanced at them, got up, and walked over.

Before she could get close, Vicky took two steps forward and slapped her fiercely on the face. Then, she said sternly, “Do you know why I hit you?”

Summer covered her numb face in pain. After two seconds, she turned to look at Vicky.

Although Vicky looked righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, Summer could still notice the joy of revenge in her eyes.

“I know it’s toilsome to work in the market department, but you’re my sister, a member of our family. Since you’ve decided to work in the company, you should set a good example for others. But you skipped work on your first day in the field! You have gone too far.”

When Vicky caused trouble for her, she became a Jarrett?

Summer smiled and looked coldly at Vicky, “I’m sorry for what happened yesterday…”

She then asked, “The male colleague who went out with me yesterday must have been exhausted. I want to apologize to him in public, okay?”

Vicky was a little surprised. Did Summer give in so quickly?

Stone suddenly whispered in her ear, “The man I found yesterday is not our company’s employee.”

Stone did not pick one from the company for the sake of safety. He was afraid that Lynn would know that matter. No matter how little attention Summer received, she was still his daughter. The fewer people knew about this, the better.

Hearing this, Vicky frowned and said to Summer, “Mr. Green is not well. He is taking the day off.”

Standing at the side, Lynn, who had been silent, said, “Is his illness so serious that he has to ask for leave on Monday?”

Every Monday, all the departments would hold a regular meeting to assign tasks. Normally, no one was allowed to take leave.

Stone’s expression changed. He said hesitantly, “I’m not sure. There are too many employees, so I can’t remember clearly. Why don’t I ask…”

Summer said softly, “Then Mr. Green, could you please tell me his name so that I can visit him after work?”

Lynn could tell that Summer’s attitude was not bad. He could not force her excessively, because he felt that she was different from before.

Therefore, Lynn, who was satisfied with Summer’s attitude, asked, “Which group has someone on leave today?”

The scene was completely silent, and no one spoke.

Stone was so anxious that his head started to sweat.

Just as Lynn was frowning impatiently, one of the group leaders replied, “Someone in my group asked for leave.”

The other members of that group looked at each other. Summer had just mentioned a man, but the one who asked for leave in their group was a woman.

“Alright. Tell Summer about that person’s contact information later so that she can visit him after work,” Lynn looked around the employees below and said, “There’s no need to be nervous. Even if it’s Monday, you can ask for leave on urgent matters. We are all family in the Jarrett Group…”

Lynn said many flowery words and then left with Vicky.

Vicky, who did not know that the matter had been exposed, smiled complacently at Summer before she left.
