It took Summer a few seconds to understand what Jerome meant.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She turned to look at Jerome with a slightly cold expression.

Jerome smiled, looking quite innocent. "I didn't know it until now."

Summer sneered. How could she believe what he said?

She turned around and looked in the direction of the entrance of the banquet hall. Leonardo wasn't there.

After Leonardo officially took over the Emerson Group, he needed to attend many activities and banquets.

But those were all high-class gatherings, so Summer never expected that he would come to such a dinner party attended by Jerome.

On the other hand, without any business dealings, the Patels and the Emersons had almost no contact with each other.

Therefore, she never thought that Leonardo would come here.

She now felt that Jerome had done it on purpose.

"You are my date now and supposed to stay with me tonight." Jerome's lips curved into a smile. He even signaled Summer to follow him with his arm.

Summer had mixed feelings about that.

If Leonardo came and found out that she was at the party with Jerome, he would definitely get furious.

Summer thought for a while and decided to be candid with Leonardo first.

After taking two steps forward, Summer held her stomach with both hands. "I have a stomachache and have to go to the restroom."

Jerome stopped and looked at her with a faint smile of disbelief.

After saying that, Summer also felt that she had said this before.

At the beginning of the year, she left Jerome at the airport and went abroad alone by playing the same trick.

Summer also felt a little embarrassed, so she explained sincerely, "It's true this time..."

With a thought, she made up an excuse. "I have problems with my stomach. Eating indiscriminately these past two days gave me the trots..."

Jerome nodded and said, "I'll accompany you."

How could this man be like this?

Summer sighed and went to the restroom helplessly in the company of Jerome.

After entering the ladies' room, she immediately called Leonardo.copy right hot novel pub
