The President's Darling Chapter 785
James needed plenty of rest to recuperate, so it was best to leave him alone as much as possible. In the hospital corridor, Summer saw Charlie waiting outside the room. He was tall, imposing, and impeccably dressed, and his sunglasses added to his commanding presence.When Charlie saw Summer, he greeted her respectfully, "Good afternoon, Mrs. Quigley.""Hello. You're here to protect James, right? I'll leave him in your care.""That's my duty. Please take care of yourself as well, Mrs. Quigley."Summer smiled and nodded. When she was about to leave, Charlie suddenly called out to her, "Mrs. Quigley, please wait a moment.""Is something wrong?" She turned back to see Charlie looking hesitant. Though his sunglasses hid much of his expression, she could tell he had something on his mind.Summer approached him and asked gently, "What is it?""Mrs. Quigley, Mr. Quigley doesn't talk much, but I know you were very worried last night. I was there, too, and wanted to tell you what happene

After the situation was resolved, Summer still had other matters to attend to. The issue involving Keith and Monica was escalating. Although the heir position was the Ritter family's internal matter, Summer had promised to assist Keith, and she felt compelled to follow through.After a week, James' health improved, allowing him to resume his regular work schedule. On a sunny afternoon, James arrived at Charter Corporation to pick Summer up after work.While on the road, Summer filled James in about Keith's precarious situation and her commitment to helping him secure his position as heir.Despite his efforts to stay composed, James was taken aback. "Summie, why did you agree to help with something like this?""Because I believe Keith is a good person. Moreover, he will not disrupt our relationship if I help him, and it could help me find a suitable match for my friend," Summer replied.If Summer could successfully match Keith with Kelly, it would resolve a lot of problems.James

Besides, Keith wasn't inherently a bad person. With the right guidance, he could become someone who would positively impact the world. "James, Keith is your friend. Don't you want to save him? You know his mindset is slightly warped, and if left alone, he might spiral into something terrible," Summer warned.James was aware of Keith's condition. Upon reflection, he realized he might have been a bit selfish. Keith had been a good friend in the past. Since Summer had saved him, James couldn't just abandon his friend.Still, James felt a twinge of worry. He took Summer's hand and said solemnly, "Can you promise me that you're just helping Keith and nothing else will happen?""Of course." Summer understood what James was implying—he was afraid Keith might try to win her over. However, Summer thought James was overthinking. Was he really so scared of losing her? Still, Summer found it heartening to be so valued.She gently clasped his thumb and promised, "Don't worry. I'm never le

As she ascended the steps, Summer noticed the small path laid with marble stones leading into the courtyard, where a serene and beautiful garden landscape unfolded. There was even a pond and a pavilion, indicating that the Ritter residence had been meticulously preserved."Keith, when was this family mansion of yours built? It looks incredibly old," Summer asked, intrigued. Compared to the Quigley residence, which was a flat-roofed building from an earlier era, the Ritter residence seemed even more ancient. The Ritter residence exuded an aura of antiquity, its imposing architecture conveying a sense of history and weight that was palpable as soon as she stepped inside. The atmosphere was almost overwhelming.Keith glanced at Summer with a cold expression. "This house is about four hundred years old. It was built by our ancestors a long time ago.""Four hundred years," Summer murmured, her mouth slightly agape. She hadn't expected the mansion to have such a long history. While

After ten minutes, Summer couldn't take it any longer. She stood up to stretch her legs. Just then, the old wooden door creaked open, and a lithe figure slipped in sneakily."Monica?" Summer exclaimed in alarm.Monica remained calm and greeted her with a smile. "Why are you surprised to see me? I should be the one surprised. "This is the Ritter residence, and outsiders aren't usually allowed. And here you are, the wife of a Quigley, showing up unannounced. Imagine the consequences if others were to find out."If word got out, it would stir up tensions between the Quigley and Ritter families. Though they appeared to coexist peacefully on the surface, beneath it lay fierce competition and hidden rivalries. More importantly, Summer was here to help Keith. If her presence were to be exposed, she could be thrown out immediately.Summer found Monica's unexpected arrival suspicious. However, she understood the importance of concealing her true purpose. She couldn't let Monica discover

Summer took a step forward, masking her growing anxiety with a calm demeanor. "Your father said that Keith's feelings for me are against the Ritter family's code of conduct. Given Keith's recent indiscretions toward me, he hoped I could serve as a witness and confront Keith directly."Despite Summer's serious tone, Monica remained skeptical. Though she appeared to be a sweet, innocent girl, her outward appearance belied her true nature. As a Ritter family heiress, she was anything but simple.Monica scoffed and said, "Summer, whether or not what you're saying is true, you need to leave."The family meeting was meant to judge Keith's alleged misdeeds. Even if York did invite Summer, her presence here could create complications. Monica needed concrete evidence to prove Keith's feelings for Summer. His romantic interest in a married woman would make him unfit to be the heir. It was only then that she could officially displace him."Summer, please leave. I must be honest with you;

Despite her reluctance, Monica had to greet her brother. "Hello, Keith.""What's going on here?" Keith asked flatly."Oh, nothing. I just happened to find Summer, the Quigley family's daughter-in-law, here at our house," Monica replied, pausing briefly before adding, "Do you know why Summer is here? I remember that outsiders aren't usually allowed in the Ritter residence."Monica's question was rhetorical. She didn't reveal who had invited Summer to see how Keith would respond. Keith gave a straightforward response. He stepped forward and pulled Summer behind him."What are you doing?" Monica asked, surprised by his actions."Summer is here because I invited her. You know very well why," Keith replied coldly. As they faced off, the tension between them was palpable, like a silent battle.Now that everything was out in the open, both Keith and Monica knew what was at stake. Upon seeing Keith's impatience, Monica decided to make her intentions clear."You think bringing Summer t

The main hall buzzed with people, most of them well into their fifties. The sixteen people were engaged in a serious discussion.Keith pulled Summer close behind him, causing every eye to turn their way. While everyone recognized Keith, they were puzzled by the unfamiliar woman accompanying him.Although Summer belonged to the Quigley family, she was rarely seen in public gatherings of the elite, so few knew her. Recognizing Summer, York looked startled at first, then furious. "Keith, what is the meaning of this?" "I need to talk to you about something important." "Talk? Whatever it is, this isn't the right moment. Do you understand where you are?" They were standing in the Ritter family's ancestral hall, a place steeped in tradition and reverence, typically reserved for formal family meetings. Keith's abrupt entrance with Summer was a breach of decorum, especially with so many elders in attendance.With a commanding wave of his hand, York ordered, "Everyone, leave us."Unf
