Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232: Shocking News
Summer Sutton worked all day, and when it was time to clock out, she didn’t leave the office immediately, but first surfed the internet for a while.
She purely didn’t want to squeeze in with a bunch of people during the rush hour, so she stayed at the company to browse online.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened Weibo, the hot topic today was about Watt Bennet.
Watt Bennet and Henry Hughes.
Summer Sutton felt a jolt in her heart when she saw these two names; she could already guess roughly what had happened.
As expected, upon clicking, the news covered the story of Henry Hughes discussing Lorraine Hughes’ marriage with Watt Bennet.
When the pedestrians photographed Henry Hughes meeting with Watt Bennet, they deliberately only uploaded Henry’s words. As for Watt Bennet’s response, the pedestrians intentionally did not post it on Weibo.
The reason is simple: if Watt Bennet’s response was also uploaded, the sensation caused would certainly not be as explosive as it is now.
The news Summer Sutton saw only reported Henry Hughes asking Watt Bennet to take responsibility for what happened that night.
Holding the phone with trembling hands, she looked at every sentence in the news, her complexion frighteningly pale.
Actually, Watt Bennet’s response is not important.
As long as Watt Bennet and Lorraine Hughes had a relationship, the two have an entangled bond that can’t be easily severed, and Watt Bennet will be entangled with the Hughes Family from now on.
Just this layer of relationship is something Summer Sutton cannot accept.
Marriage is between two people, and Summer Sutton cannot accept a third party being involved in between.
Nor can she tolerate the third party’s family frequently bringing up this matter with Watt Bennet in the future...
She stared at the news for quite a while, sitting quietly in her office chair, watching the news for several hours.
...
Watt Bennet was a bit late picking her up today due to company matters.
He arrived at five thirty.
At this point, guessing Summer Sutton might have already gone back, Watt Bennet didn’t linger outside the Royal Delight Tower and immediately drove to Ariella Sawyer’s residence.
However, when he arrived, Ariella Sawyer had returned.
Summer Sutton wasn’t there.
Watt Bennet was stunned for a moment and made a call to Summer Sutton.
He just wanted to know where she was, but despite calling several times, the call never connected.
Since meeting Henry Hughes, Watt Bennet had been busy and hadn’t had time to check the news.
He didn’t know what had happened in the news.
Skeptically standing outside Ariella Sawyer’s neighborhood, Watt Bennet was completely unaware of what was happening.
He initially thought Summer Sutton might just be busy or at a noisy place where she couldn’t hear his call, thinking he could wait there; perhaps she would return.
But after waiting for about two hours, he still didn’t see Summer Sutton return, and Watt Bennet instantly realized something was wrong.
It’s already off work; where could Summer Sutton be?
At the recording site?
Even if she was busy with the program, so much time had passed since his first call, she should have seen it by now.
Other than deliberately not answering his call, Watt Bennet couldn’t think of any other reason.
Realizing this, Watt Bennet’s heart sank to the bottom.
Since the Lorraine Hughes incident happened, he hadn’t felt secure for many days, constantly anxious about Summer Sutton’s reaction to the matter.
Today, was his greatest fear happening?
The more Watt Bennet thought, the more chaotic he felt inside.
He opened the car door, got in, attempted to call Summer Sutton again, but failed to connect, then quickly drove to Royal Delight.
