Chapter 961: A Deliberately Orchestrated Encounter

Watt ignored his words, bent down, and got into his car, asking the driver to head back to his villa.

...

Lately, Summer Sutton has been visiting the Winslow Family quite frequently, all at the invitation of the Old Master.

The Old Master of the Winslow Family truly feels that Watt has helped Shining Sky so much. Now the entire Shining Sky Group relies on Watt for management. Without him, who knows where the Winslow Family would be.

The Old Master is grateful to Watt and as a result, he warmly welcomes Summer Sutton.

Though Summer Sutton can’t become the Winslow Family’s granddaughter-in-law, surely she can at least be treated as a goddaughter?

This is the Old Master’s thought.

However, Watt is unaware of this.

Every invitation the Old Master extends to Summer Sutton is mistakenly understood by Watt as the Old Master trying to set up Alexander Winslow and Summer Sutton!

Whenever Summer Sutton appears at the Winslow Family, Watt invariably follows.

He acts as if he coincidentally runs into Summer at the Winslow Family’s place, but his true intentions are clear to everyone.

His reasons for coming are twofold: firstly, he doesn’t trust Summer Sutton interacting with Alexander Winslow, and secondly, he is wary of Lily Winslow, fearing that Summer Sutton might again be wronged.

The umpteenth time Summer Sutton bumps into him at the Winslow Family, she looks at Watt blocking her path, furrows her eyebrows slightly, doesn’t greet him, and just presses on past him towards the hall.

"Summer..." Watt’s eyes followed her moving figure, wanting to say something.

Nevertheless, Summer Sutton acted as if she hadn’t heard a sound from him. Her pace not only didn’t slow down but actually quickened a bit.

The slender figure disappeared down the corridor in an instant.

When she returned to the living room, Lily Winslow was also there.

The Old Master and Alexander Winslow were nowhere in sight.

Lily studied Summer Sutton from head to toe, frowning in a fix, as if she couldn’t comprehend.

"Honestly, I really don’t see what’s so special about you. Why does Brother Watt act like he’s under a spell, and happen to like you?"

Summer Sutton responded lightly, "I don’t need you to like me. Whether you see my worth or not, it’s irrelevant to me."

This single remark rendered Lily speechless.

Although her words were straightforward, they seemed to ring true?

Lily realized she couldn’t verbally score against Summer Sutton, so she meekly sat aside, pretending to be the obedient girl of the house.

"Want some tea?" Lily poured a cup of tea and pushed it toward Summer Sutton.

Summer took the cup and downed a gulp.

After she had already drunk it, Lily unexpectedly quipped, "Aren’t you afraid I’ve poisoned the tea, and that if you die, Brother Watt will be mine?"

She thought that by saying this, Summer Sutton would surely panic.

Yet, Summer subtly swirled the teacup with her fingertips, her expression unchanged.

In a calm tone, she said, "Even if I die from the poison, Watt still won’t be yours."

Her words always carried this quality—calm and unruffled, yet cutting straight to the heart, always leaving Lily at a loss for words.

Indeed, Watt simply doesn’t like her. Even if Summer Sutton were truly poisoned to death, Watt wouldn’t be hers.

Lily admitted defeat, rolled her eyes, and continued sipping her tea.

Summer Sutton truly didn’t fear Lily tampering with the tea; she drank countless cups of the tea Lily made, one after the other.

She sat at the Winslow Family’s place quite late tonight, leaving only at eleven.

Watt left with her, likely fearing it would be unsafe for her to return home alone. Summer didn’t leave, so he quietly accompanied her.
