Chapter 190

Author: Good Night
"Janice, you can't hit people!" A teacher tugged on Janice's arm half-heartedly.

Janice grabbed the lead teacher's sleeve. "Is what Summer said true? Is Chandler a part of Royal Financial Group?"

The teacher nodded. "Yes. He returned to the country by himself and secretly enrolled in school. It angered Mr. Hunt, which is why Mr. Hunt took him away."

"So, it wasn't because of Summer?" Janice felt like her entire world was crumbling down.

"Of course not."

Suddenly, a wave of dizziness hit Janice. Along with what happened last night with Anthony, her body was pushed to the brink. The emotional shock got to her and caused her to collapse on the spot.

Anthony watched everything unfold right in front of his eyes. He had thought he was the luckiest person alive at the start, but his dream had completely crumbled before it could even begin.

However, Anthony quickly made another decision.

As far as he knew, the Sullivan family that owned Power Construction came from a long line of schol

    "What is it?" Kristen asked."Well, I just graduated, right? I want to go on a graduation trip," Summer said."Of course you can. I've already picked out a few places and had people plan out everything," Luke replied.Summer waved it off. "I don't want to go overseas. Now that I'm becoming an adult, I want to travel alone." "Definitely not," Luke and Kristen said at the same time.Summer looked at Luke and pouted. "Do you still think I'm a baby?"Kristen and Luke had conflicted expressions on their faces."I'll be going to college in fall. It might not be too far away, but I won't be able to stay at home, either. Are you really going to move near my campus with me?" Summer asked."Summer, there's just been too many horrible things happening lately," Luke said seriously.Summer replied in earnest, "I'll have to face the world on my own eventually. I can already do that now.""We understand. Your dad and I will discuss this," Kristen said after a moment of silence."You two a

    "Sir, could you please help me to pack this up?" Summer asked the farm owner."Summer, we've already made some for Grandpa," Luke said."I know," she mumbled vaguely but still packed the crayfish in the end.On the way back, Luke insisted on taking the fruits and vegetables they harvested home. Since the car was too small to fit everything in, he rented a small farm truck from the owner, and they made their grand return."I didn't expect farm life to be this fun," Luke said. He had abandoned all of his usual refined demeanor and gone all out on the farm. His clothes were soaked, so he was just wearing a simple white T-shirt and shorts that he bought at the farm. He looked like a completely different person."We should bring Grandpa with us next time," Summer said with a smile.She had gone back in time for so long, but this was probably her happiest day. She had never seen Kristen and Luke so happy before. Their happiness amplified her own many times over.By the time the thre

    It was either Mason had been attacked by someone in the apartment, or he was injured and hiding inside.Summer took a deep breath.Even without considering her past life, Mason had already saved her twice. There was no way she could just turn a blind eye to this situation.She clenched her teeth and put down the things in her hands. Then, she pulled out her self-defense tools from her bag and headed inside."Mason?" She fumbled around but couldn't find the light switch. So, she was forced to use the flashlight on her phone as she shouted out Mason's name.She had just taken two steps when she saw someone collapsed on the living room couch.Summer's heart skipped a beat. She hurried over, and after she saw who it was, her heart stopped."Mason!" she shouted as she checked for any signs of life.Mason was breathing, and his heart was still beating, but it was weak."Mason, can you hear me?" Summer called out to him.After a moment, Mason slowly opened his eyes.Summer almost c

    Summer had only disliked Rosanna before this, but at that moment, there was no one she hated more.There were two gunshot wounds on Mason. One was near his left chest, close to the collarbone, and one was on his back.Time slowly passed by.Under Mason's instructions, it took several hours for Summer to extract the bullets from the wounds before she stitched them up."Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?" She helped him lie down on the bed.Mason shook his head. "There's no need. I'll be fine after I get some sleep.""Mason…" Summer felt a bit helpless. Mason seemed a bit dazed as he gently held her hand. "Don't worry. This will be the last time, I promise."After Mason said that, he fell fast asleep.Summer stayed by his side, not even daring to close her eyes. She was worried she would wake up to find him dead if she fell asleep.Mason hadn't given her any instructions before he fell asleep.Summer didn't dare to contact Kyle either, since she didn't know wh

    Summer tried a sip of the soup, and it was delicious."Oh, my God! Am I actually a cooking genius?" she mumbled to herself."Did you make this?" Mason suddenly said from behind her.Summer jumped in fright. "Are you trying to die? Who said you could get up?""I injured my arm, not my leg." His face was incredibly pale. He had always been coldly attractive, but now, he seemed broken as well. Anyone would sympathize with him if they looked at him."I'm hungry," Mason suddenly called out pitifully before Summer could force him back to his room.She didn't know how to respond to that.After a moment, the two were sitting at the dining table."Are you sure you don't need to lie down?" Summer asked.Mason shook his head. After that, he looked at the chicken soup with an upset expression. "How am I supposed to drink this? I can't raise my hand."Summer was speechless. Who would have thought that Mason was such a master at playing the victim?"Mr. Hunt, allow me to serve you!" Summe

    Summer saw Mason's expression and had to hold back her laughter. "Mr. Hunt, drink your soup first. I'm going to make my lunch."With that, she returned to the kitchen and brought over a bag of chips. After that, she took out the crayfish from the fridge and reheated it. A moment later, she had a delicious-looking meal in front of her.Mason frowned slightly. "Where did you get that from?"She glanced at him with a look of regret. "I caught them at a farm with my parents yesterday. I was planning on bringing this over to thank you for saving me, but there's no way you can eat them right now.""You made this?" Mason asked.Summer peeled a crayfish, dipped it in sauce, and put it on a chip before she put it in her mouth. It tasted so good that she stomped her feet. "Yup, it tastes amazing!""I…" Mason tried to say something."You're only allowed to drink soup. Before your wounds get better, these things have nothing to do with you," Summer declared.Mason looked visibly unhappy.

    "That's good." Mason nodded.He had lost a lot of blood, so he started feeling exhausted after being awake for a while.When Summer saw how tired he was, she decided to stop tempting him with the crayfish and quickly washed her hands."Go and lie down. If anything else happens to you, I won't be able to handle it. I would have no choice but to send you to the hospital," she said."Fine," he responded.Summer helped Mason back into his room.After laying down, Mason handed her a card with a license plate number on it. "Summer, go to the garage later. There's a car with this license plate there. Grab the other box from its trunk.""Okay." Summer nodded. She sat by Mason's side and checked his temperature again. He was still having a low fever.Summer fed him medication as instructed."I'm going to the garage to get what you want right now. Make sure you stay in bed and don't move. Call me if you need anything." Summer was definitely worried about Mason's condition.He had two g

    Before long, Mason was fast asleep.Summer sat by his side and let out a sigh as she looked at the IV needle in the back of his hand. She sat there for a while before she picked up her phone.Just as she expected, her inbox was flooded with messages. Most of them were from Kristen, who was angry.Summer sent her some photos that she had prepared. After a moment, Kristen called.Summer got up and walked to the living room before she picked up the phone."Just scold me. You can even hit me later if you feel like it," she immediately apologized."Does anyone else know about your schedule for the trip?" Kristen asked in a low voice.Summer shook her head. "No. I'm sure of it."Kristen paused for a moment. "That's good. Just go on your graduation trip first. Call me three times a day, and before you come back, ask me. You're only allowed to come back with my approval.""Did something happen?" Summer asked.Kristen sighed. "Mason's probably dead. Royal Financial Group is in complet

    "Go sit down over there!" Summer pointed at the dining room.Mason looked like he wanted to protest, but when Summer glared at him, he sat down obediently."When are you going out?" he asked.She answered, "I need to go out and discuss some things, so I'll be leaving around 10:00 am. I'll try my best to come back before 3:00 pm.""That long?" Mason frowned.Summer poured the chicken broth over the freshly cooked noodles and added two eggs inside before she put the bowl in front of Mason. "Mr. Hunt, I don't like clingy boyfriends. Keep that in mind."Mason didn't know what to say to that. Was he clingy?"Is there anything you want to eat? I'll bring something back for you." Summer decided to offer a small reward after scolding him."Crayfish that you made," Mason said without any hesitation."That's something for next year, so pick something else." She waved it off."How about that place you brought me to last time?" Mason said after some thought. He remembered her enjoying th

    That night was a night filled with unease for a lot of people.Anthony switched on his computer and copied two files from an encrypted folder. He had learned that Power Construction was trying to get into the IT industry as well and was looking for a product that would help them break into the market.The two files contained an application and a game. In his eyes, as long as these were developed and released, they would rake in massive profits. Those two files were both from Rose.Initially, they had been meant for him to use as a way to enter Hartford Group."Summer, I'll make sure you regret the decisions you made in the past," Anthony said as he looked at Summer's photo.Initially, he hadn't suspected Summer at all for what happened on the mountain. But when he was leaving, he secretly took that bottle of alcohol with him. Upon closer inspection, he realized the bottle wasn't the one he had tampered with.That was when he finally understood. Summer had probably known all about

    Summer felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her eyes started to redden as well.Mason was stunned, not knowing what he did wrong at all. He started to panic. "What's wrong? Did I say something I shouldn't have? Don't cry.""Idiot," Summer scolded as she looked at him.Mason was utterly confused. He lightly patted her on the head and asked, "Why are you so upset?"Summer shook her head. "It's nothing. Didn't you see all the dirt about me online? You still like me after all of that?"Mason shook his head. "I didn't see those. Even if I did, I'd still like you. I know how you are. There's no need for me to learn about you from others.""Wow! Someone's a smooth talker." Summer finally smiled.Mason let out a sigh of relief. "Do you have anything else you want to ask about?""There's nothing else." Summer shook her head."Then, can I…" Mason actually didn't forget about him wanting to pay Henry a visit."You can't!" Summer shut him down immediately before she picked up the cotton s

    Mason's complaint seemed laced with complicated emotions. When Summer heard it, she felt her heart skip a beat.She frowned. "How could I not remember anything at all? That doesn't make sense. I was pretty smart when I was six years old. I was thinking about it, and I could even remember getting scolded by my mom after stealing some cookies.""And you look so…" Summer almost blurted out that he looked so good. There was no way she wouldn't remember Mason since she had been a sucker for good looks since she was young.If Mason wasn't lying, then she probably ran over to console him because he was just too good-looking. Otherwise, there was no way she would have dared to get so close to a stranger."And I look what?" Mason asked innocently."You know exactly what you look like," Summer answered vaguely. "I'll go back and ask my parents if I went to that cemetery back then.""Good." Mason nodded.Summer put her arms around his neck again. "I'll believe you for now, but you'd better

    Summer was stunned as she looked at Mason in shock. "You…""And that special whack-a-mole game…. I happened to see it when someone hacked into my company's computers a while ago." Mason leaned closer to Summer. "X."Summer felt chills all over as she dropped the cotton swab and took a few steps back. "Jesus! Who the hell are you?"He actually knew about the first game she ever made as a child and even knew she was X.Mason watched her and confirmed that Summer didn't remember anything at all. She wasn't that young back then, so how could she not remember anything?"I'm Mason," Mason answered.Summer's thoughts were in chaos.Mason had mentioned that special game she never told anyone about from when she was young, and he recognized that special whack-a-mole and determined that she was X.It meant that he had the right person.After Summer calmed down, she hurried back to Mason's side and lightly grabbed his neck, pretending to strangle him. "Tell me where we met right now. O

    Anthony took a step back. "Alright. Let's go back now. We can talk to your parents together. Don't be so emotional and stay calm. Don't make them worry anymore. I can tell that they love you very much. It's just that they're a little too old-fashioned."Janice sneered. Her face was still stinging from when Patrick slapped her earlier.Love? The only thing they loved was the family's reputation and social standing."Anthony, if you want to get involved in Power Construction, you'll need some real skills. That woman just now was my aunt, and her husband is the general manager of Power Construction's IT department. Bring him down for me." Janice watched Anthony.Anthony nodded without any hesitation. "I'll get it done within three months."…Summer was swamped with the launch of her game, as well as taking care of Mason, the little puppy. The entire day had been a whirlwind of work.Mason realized she was really busy with something important, so he stopped bothering her too much. H

    Janice glared at Anthony. "Drop the act. Who used you? Weren't you trying to climb your way into a rich family?"Anthony said slowly, "I love Summer, and the one I want is her, too! She gave me so many hints before, and she was the one who invited me into her tent that night. Otherwise, why would I have gone in? I had no idea the person inside wasn't her!"Janice frowned.Thinking it over, that did make some sense. Why did Anthony need to do that to her in Summer's tent? And there were a lot of rumors surrounding Anthony and Summer in school as well.Anthony grabbed Janice's shoulder. "You can die right now if you want to, but those who harmed us won't feel guilty about it at all. Instead, they'll be pleased that their wicked plans worked. But we can't let that happen, okay? The more we're hurting, the more we need to get revenge on them!"Janice looked a bit surprised. "Revenge? On Summer?""Yes!" Anthony said firmly."How would we get that?" Janice asked.She was definitely u

    Janice had once been an outstanding student who excelled in every manner. Compared to Janice, Nora's own child fell far behind.On top of that, Brad had retired a few years ago, and the position of CEO for Power Construction had been given to Patrick, which made Nora incredibly unhappy.With Janice getting caught up in one scandal after another, Nora took full advantage of it. She moved back right away and spent her days whispering into Brad's ears.She embellished all the rumors from the outside and fed them to Brad. Otherwise, there was no way Brad would be so furious."Shut up!" Janice was already sick of Nora's mockery."Oh, my! Dad, just look at her talking to her elders like that. She's completely lost her manners," Nora feigned fear.Janice felt her whole body trembling.What Summer said earlier constantly echoed in her head.She had spent all this time looking for Rose, but she never expected Anthony to barge into her own home. She really didn't know what Anthony said t

    Mason let out a long sigh. "Oh, no… What am I supposed to do if you're going out tomorrow?"Summer was bewildered. Mason was supposed to be some notorious monster of a CEO, so why was he acting so weak and pitiful?"Mason, do you really think I'm your personal maid?" she asked.Mason frowned. "Of course not.""You'd better not!" Summer warned.Mason still kept up with the pitiful look, and Summer couldn't bear to say anything else about it.But he was just putting on an act. He didn't actually stop Summer from going out.After that, Summer went and busied herself.Mason sat on the couch. After feeling bored for a while, he eventually started dealing with his own affairs.At dusk, something dawned on him. Tomorrow would be Saul's birthday. Things had been such a mess lately, and Kyle didn't remind him, so he had forgotten all about it.Mason probably wouldn't have time to get a gift anymore. He'd make up for it later.…At around the same time, Janice had hurried home. The m
