Chapter 1207: Chapter 1207: You Can Only Belong to Me
He clearly seemed to have misunderstood what happened last night, yet he didn’t spare a thought for Lorraine Hughes.
As soon as he went downstairs, the first thing he did was go back to explain to Summer Sutton.
At this moment, Lorraine Hughes felt indescribably uneasy.
She couldn’t understand why, whether it was Adrian Walyon or Watt Bennet in the past, they both cared so much about Summer Sutton.
...
Watt Bennet rushed back on his way.
After leaving the Hughes Family, he arrived at a roadside station, hailed a car, and urged the driver to speed up several times on the journey.
It was rush hour, and there were many vehicles on the road.
When the car stopped due to traffic congestion on the road two kilometers from the villa, Watt Bennet got out and ran the rest of the way home.
Upon his return to the villa, it was quiet inside, with no signs of life.
Watt Bennet slowly pushed the door open and walked inside step by step.
At this time, Summer Sutton’s work hours hadn’t started yet, so she probably hadn’t left for work.
On his way into the house, Watt Bennet had many thoughts.
He wondered how he should explain himself when he saw her, whether she would believe him, whether she would forgive him.
He even remembered what Summer Sutton said to Iris Watson last night.
If someone does something to hurt her, simply turn around and leave, never looking back.
Given what happened, would she do the same?
The more he thought about it, the more anxious Watt Bennet became.
As he entered the house, the living room was dappled with dawnlight.
Summer Sutton was sitting on the sofa, staring blankly out the window.
She didn’t know how long she had been sitting there; she was still wearing the same clothes from last night, without even changing.
Seeing her like this, Watt Bennet instantly understood.
She must not have slept the whole night.
"Summer..." Watt Bennet called her softly.
Summer Sutton turned her face to look at him, her gaze quietly sweeping over his body, searching for any suspicious traces.
Watt Bennet was too scared Summer Sutton would find out he had left the Hughes Family this morning, so he definitely wouldn’t admit it to her voluntarily.
He walked over to her, opened his arms, and hugged her tightly, "Did I worry you last night?"
Summer Sutton’s body was stiff in his embrace, her face buried in his chest, trying hard to smell any scent on him.
Summer Sutton thought that if something really happened last night, there would surely be traces of a woman’s presence on him.
Like the scent of perfume or smudges of lipstick.
She even cautiously lifted his clothes to take a look inside.
Watt Bennet’s body was clean, not a single thing she feared seeing.
No kiss marks, no lipstick, no signs of any intense activity.
Seeing him like this, Summer Sutton breathed a long sigh of relief.
Nothing must have happened, right?
The tension that had held her heart all night finally relaxed.
Her stiff arms lifted, countering his embrace with all her strength, "I didn’t sleep a single night, and kept asking Marshall Quinn to find you."
"Last night was my oversight that gave others an opportunity." Watt Bennet sincerely apologized to her.
"Adrian Walyon, listen to me, I don’t want anything similar to happen again. I can’t convince myself to accept someone who isn’t entirely mine, understand?" Summer Sutton held his face with her hands, reminding him sternly.
