Chapter 2185: Another Failed Conversation
Spencer stood up and earnestly said to him, "If you think this self-reflection isn't deep enough, call me right away! I'll go back and rewrite it immediately!" He said this without even a hint of hesitation. "Go ahead," Ivan's voice was as warm as spring. "Don't worry, I'll read it carefully."
"Alright, I'm leaving now!" Spencer turned and left quickly. Ivan didn't stop him but watched as he walked away.
When Spencer got downstairs and exited the elevator, he immediately called Summer. The phone rang several times, but she didn't pick up. Spencer started to get anxious and worried. Why wasn't she answering? He hadn't arranged for anyone to protect her yet. Because he loved her so much, his mind was filled with all sorts of worries.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
At that moment, Summer had just parked her car and was walking towards a restaurant where she saw Rupert sitting by the window. Spencer's call came through just then. She glanced at the caller ID and hung up directly before walking inside.
There were some things she needed to settle with Rupert.
Through the floor-to-ceiling window, Rupert smiled and waved at her. Summer walked towards him after entering and saw a bouquet of roses on the table.
To be honest, she found this kind of gesture a bit off-putting-sending flowers one moment and then losing his temper the next. It wasn't very adult-like.
"Summer," Rupert quickly stood up and handed her the flowers. "I'm glad you're willing to come out for dinner with me. I hope these roses can lift your spirits; I picked them out especially for you."
"Did you buy a house today?" Summer didn't take the flowers but sat down and got straight to the point. "Did you?"
Her accusatory tone and direct question left Rupert momentarily stunned. She knew?
Seeing that she didn't even take the roses, Rupert met her gaze and suddenly understood. She wasn't over her anger; she was here to break up. She wouldn't change her mind.
"Did you buy a house or not?" Summer suddenly had another thought. "Did you lose money in business? Rupert, that money is your parents' life savings; you.

the money.
"What did I touch?" Rupert's face fell, and his anger flared up. "Summer, are you crazy? Yes, I bought a house but didn't put your name on it! Is that a problem?" Summer saw his tense lips and thought for a moment.
Rupert looked very impatient. "But don't worry, when we get married, I'll add your name. Now you're talking about breaking up while my parents are pressuring me to buy a house; I had no choice but to fulfill their
wish."
"I won't marry you," Summer looked at him calmly and reiterated, "Rupert, let's break up and minimize the hurt."
Why?!
Rupert couldn't understand!
She didn't even know about his huge gambling debt yet; what reason did she have to break up with him? She must have fallen for someone else!
Rupert felt like he'd been given a huge green hat-a betrayal he couldn't accept as a man!
So, his anger surged even more!
"Summer, don't push it!" Rupert was furious now, feeling deeply defeated at the e same time. "We're engaged! You have to keep your promise! Otherwise, no one will have peace!" en.swhovels.net
