Chapter 398: Chapter 398 Narrow Paths for Enemies
He didn’t mind, so Summer Sutton had no reason to mind either.
She sat next to him, and just like that, they finished their dinner.
At this late hour, the lights in the neighboring complex outside had long been turned off.
After dinner, Summer stood on the apartment balcony, watching the bustling traffic below. Suddenly, she felt that tonight’s nightscape was particularly beautiful.
Adrian Walyon followed her out, wrapping his long arms around her from behind.
"Do you like it here?" he asked, close to her ear.
"I like it," Summer nodded vigorously.
"Compared to Morning Garden and Sutton Gardens?" Adrian asked again.
"It’s the same everywhere," Summer replied, stretching her arms comfortably.
"That’s what I think too," Adrian smiled, a faint smile that was nevertheless charming.
Isn’t it true?
As long as he and she were together, it didn’t matter where they lived.
Morning Garden was home, Sutton Gardens was too, and now here was as well.
Even during those harsh days living in the mountains where the road wasn’t even smooth, Adrian felt it wasn’t too different.
As long as she was by his side, fine clothes and good food, or plain tea and simple meals—it all meant nothing to him.
...
Summer Sutton wanted to earn her own tuition for the next academic year. Usually, she’d help Ariella Sawyer when needed, and when things were slow, she’d take the bus around the city, continuing to look for work.
Just like Adrian Walyon said, they really weren’t short of money.
But Summer wanted to work more and earn her own expenses.
The company she applied to today was an average-sized entertainment company, and she was applying for the producer’s assistant position.
The Film Academy she was currently attending was the best in the country, dedicated to providing talent for the entertainment industry.
And Summer had always performed well academically, basically topping her major each semester, even holding the prestige of ranking first in admissions.
With such excellent credentials, it wasn’t difficult for her to find a job.
When Summer brought her resume to apply today, she felt confident about this job.
But unexpectedly, as she entered the recruitment manager’s office, she bumped into someone.
Gina Sutton.
This was the first time Summer had seen Gina since the last incident.
Today, Gina looked completely different from when she was lying sick in bed; she looked radiant and full of energy.
While chatting with the manager, she’d occasionally twirl her wavy hair, even exuding more charm than usual.
She froze for a moment when she saw Summer.
Then she glanced at Summer’s resume and curled her lips in satire.
Summer ignored her, turning her head to politely greet the recruitment manager, "Hello, sir, I’m Summer Sutton, here for the interview!"
The manager had already reviewed her submitted resume beforehand and found her qualifications impressive.
Excellent academic performance, young, hardworking, and strikingly attractive.
Summer Sutton was the kind of person without a single flaw.
Upon meeting her, the manager was very pleased and had even prepared to hire her on the spot. But Gina abruptly interjected, "Manager Chapman, didn’t you wonder how I got the scar on my forehead?"
Manager Chapman was taken aback, looking at her with a face full of puzzlement.
Gina nonchalantly fiddled with her long, beautiful fingers, her eyes slowly lifted.
When she looked at Summer, her gaze suddenly sharpened.
