Having a sip of the juice, he said, “You look so beautiful when smiling. You should smile more often… Oh!”
“What the hell is the juice?” Trevin shouted with his eyes widened, “Didn’t I say I wanted juice of sweet fruit?”
Summer maintained a poker face, saying, “No fruits are absolutely sweet. They’re sweet, yet sour. Strawberries taste sweet and slightly sour and they’re good for health. And it’s seasonal.”
Trevin frowned, “But I like sweet fruits, absolutely sweet.”
“My daughter also prefers sweet fruits.” Summer looked up and said.
Trevin said nothing. He sipped at his juice reluctantly, but he felt it tasted sweeter and sweeter. So, he was taking gulps of his juice and half of the glass was empty. How childish Trevin was!
The cup of coffee Summer ordered was brought to her.
Having finished more than half of the strawberry juice, Trevin continued, “If the actual situation isn’t taken into account, there’ll be another advantage for you.”
“What’s it?”
“You don’t have any other kid, so if Leonardo has another kid, you’ll be given priority to get the custody. That will be your biggest advantage, if your conditions, as well as Leonardo’s, aren’t being considered.”
Summer made no response after hearing that.
“You don’t get it, do you?” Trevin repeated seriously, “I mean, as long as Leonardo has another kid, it’s more likely that you’ll get custody.”
However, he denied it as soon as he finished. “But your conditions and that of Leonardo are miles apart. You won’t overwhelm him. Even if he has another kid while you can’t have a baby anymore, you still won’t have a chance of getting custody.”
Warren had also told Summer that she had no chance of winning a lawsuit against Leonardo. Although Trevin was always flippant, he did look serious when talking about the case, and his opinion was the same as Warren’s.
Because of that, Summer trusted him more.
“I know the chance is slim. That’s why I have to win.” Summer said and sighed.
Trevin patted his chest, which looked a bit silly. “Don’t worry. I will definitely try my best.” He promised.
Trevin surprised Summer a bit. She turned to him because she had no other choice.
Trevin was so different from who he was. Summer said, “You’re not like a playboy now.”
“I’m always serious when doing my job.” Trevin smiled as if he were hooking up with a girl, “When I win the lawsuit for you, I will continue to chase after you. At that time, you will throw yourself at me for sure.”
They were just discussing the case, but Trevin was acting as if they had already won the lawsuit and she had been her girlfriend.
Summer didn’t take his words seriously, because Trevin always said that to girls, who he would get over very soon.
Nevertheless, Summer still felt that she was gonna change her opinion of Trevin. Whoever was doing his job seriously was worthy of respect.
Even though Summer didn’t have a crush on a playboy like Trevin, she still thought he was a good person.
The two of them chatted in the café for a while. It was Trevin who was asking Summer questions.
Summer answered briefly, but Trevin’s questions were quite professional. So Summer didn’t feel that worried.
They had lunch in a restaurant. After lunch, Trevin said that he had to go back and make preparations for the case.
“I haven’t been a litigator for long, so I have to read some cases and materials, and figure out a plan.”
“Okay.” Summer didn’t feel that worried when she saw Trevin was so attentive to the case.
“What about you? What are you gonna do?” Trevin moved his leg slightly, saying, “If you have time, go to my place and help me search for information.”
Summer shook her head, “I’m gonna pick my daughter up from school.”
Trevin said with a glitter in his eyes, “You’re gonna pick up your daughter? Then I’ll go with you.”
He couldn’t wait to see what kind of kid Leonardo’s daughter was.
Summer knew what Trevin was thinking right the second and she was puzzled, “You seem to have been picking on Leonardo.”
“I just don’t like him. When my dad was alive, he used to praise him. I do wanna see how different Leonardo is. He’s richer than us, and he works in his company like every day. How come he can win the praise from my dad?”
Trevin seemed to look bitter about Leonardo winning the praise from his dad, and Summer could even sense the jealousy from his tone.
But that didn’t matter. What mattered was… “Your father used to praise Leonardo?” That was very suspicious and even weird.
“You’re supposed to know my dad. He’s Lester Wolf.” Trevin suddenly sneered, “Everyone considers him as a great philanthropist. But he has insomnia and always suffers from nightmares. It’s ridiculous, isn’t it?”
“Why did he often have nightmares?”
The smile on Trevin’s face fainted when he curled his lips. He said in an even more indifferent tone, “Because he was guilty about doing too many bad things in his life.”
Summer did have something to ask Trevin, but it was obviously inappropriate at this moment. So she asked nothing.
Luckily, Trevin just mentioned it and changed the topic soon. “You should search for information with me. After that, we’ll pick your daughter up together.”
Summer hesitated for a moment , and nodded in agreement.
Since she had chosen to trust Trevin, she couldn’t have any bad impression towards him.
However, it was Trevin who felt stunned this time. “You agreed on me like this? You know I have a crush for you. If you go to my place with me, I won’t promise nothing will happen.”
Summer said with a serious expression, “If you wanna be impotent in the future, you can have a try.”
Summer’s words frightened Trevin and he involuntarily reached out to cover his private part.
Summer got into the car after she gave a sniff.
Trevin seemed to be scared by Summer’s words, so he almost said nothing on their way, except giving directions for her.
Summer felt a bit familiar as she was driving. It seemed to be the way to Jessica’s home.
When they finally arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood, Summer found that it was where Jessica lived. And there were so many rich people and stars in this neighborhood.
Trevin didn’t know what Summer was thinking, and he walked in front of her to lead the way.
When they arrived at Trevin’s apartment, Trevin opened the door while turning to Summer, “I haven’t lived here for long. It might be a little messy.”
Summer remained silent.
Summer didn’t know how messy the apartment would be until she entered.
There were clothes, books, pillows and other things all over the ground. Summer even couldn’t find a place to set her foot on.
Besides, the ground was covered with a thick layer of dust.
