Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 1049

Questioned by Summer, Douglas turned pale. In this case, Summer could not bear to question him any further.

Douglas remained silent and stood still. Seeing this, Summer whispered to him, "Douglas?"

Douglas suddenly looked up with red eyes, "Summer, did you say you wanted us to have a talk?"

Summer thought he had come around. So she nodded, "Yes."

Unexpectedly, Douglas replied, "Did he talk to me when he drove my mother crazy and sent her to a mental hospital?" Douglas said in a hoarse voice.

Summer widened her eyes, "Where did you hear that?"

Douglas stared at her without blinking. He seemed to have confirmed his guess. He slowly asked, "You know it too, don't you?"

Summer did know the whole story. At that time, she felt it was for Douglas' own good that she hid those dirty secrets of the Emersons from him.

However, being questioned by Douglas, she wasn't sure if Leonardo and she had done the right thing.

"You know it too." This time, Douglas said with certainty.

He looked melancholy and disappointed. Facing Douglas, Summer was unable to utter a single word of denial.

She could not lie to Douglas, nor could she say that this was for his own good. Back then, Leonardo's original intention was to protect Douglas, but was Douglas happy about that?

"The person I trust and admire the most has driven my mother crazy." Douglas' eyes were filled with pain, "You've been hiding it from me for so many years. If I didn't discover the truth, would you keep the secret forever?"

Summer's lips trembled, but she was unable to utter a single word.
