Finding a seat by the window, she sat down.
Sumr Sutton followed her in after she entered.
Sitting at a spot further away from her, she casually picked up a newspaper, pretending to read it. As Sumr took her seat, her eyes occasionally glanced in her direction.
In truth, Sumr didn’t have much hope for this surveillance of Gina Sutton, but she had to at least give it a try.
Gina ordered a pile of dishes for herself and quietly ate.
Halfway through the al, a sudden ringtone broke the silence.
Sumr didn’t pay much attention and ordered a cup of coffee, sipping quietly.
Unexpectedly, as Gina’s phone rang and she glanced at the caller ID number, she took her phone and headed towards the deserted backyard of the restaurant.
Sumr looked in her direction, thought for a mont, and then quickly stood up to follow her.
Arriving at the backyard, Gina was on the phone.
Sumr quietly hid at the corridor’s corner, quietly listening.
The backyard was unusually silent, and Sumr, having decent hearing, could make out the man’s voice from the other end of the line.
"I’ve heard you’re marrying into the Walyon Family soon?"
The familiar voice made Sumr’s nerves instantly go on alert.
"So what?" Gina’s slender fingers gripped her phone tightly.
The man on the phone chuckled coldly, "So what? Second Young Miss Sutton is truly ruthless, doing whatever it takes to drive away her own cousin—even risking her life! Is this what’s called a desperate struggle for survival? Many n, when it cos to ruthlessness, probably feel inferior in front of Second Young Miss Sutton!"
Gina seed taken aback by how much the other party knew, her voice instantly turning cold, "Who are you really? Why do you know so much?"
The man ignored her question, a sneer tugging at his lips as his voice ca through once more, "I just want to know, after doing so much to your cousin, how can Second Young Miss Sutton be so at ease marrying into the Walyon Family!"
Gina’s body trembled continuously, stepping back several tis, her face pale.
What does this man an?
Is he on Sumr’s side?
Sumr stood at the corner, attempting to record, but due to the distance, she couldn’t.
"Miss, you can’t be in the backyard!" a server’s voice suddenly ca through from ahead.
Gina lifted her pale face, looking at the person briefly, as if still recovering from the shock.
Quick to react, Sumr tilted her head back, swiftly returning to her seat.
Distracted by the waitstaff, Gina had to interrupt her call halfway and returned to her table.
Sumr observed her for a while longer, her mind repeatedly processing what she had heard.
Now, the only one who could prove her innocence was the man Gina had just spoken to.
However, she didn’t even know who he was.
Should she find a way to check Gina’s phone call records?
If a number could reveal the caller’s identity, Gina would’ve already tracked down the person.
Moreover, she wasn’t dumb enough to leave call records for others to check.
As her brain worked tirelessly, Sumr suddenly picked up the calendar on the table to check.
How many days are left until Gina and Ryan Walyon’s wedding?
Suddenly, Sumr had a premonition; she had a gut feeling that if Gina really marries into the Walyon Family, the man from today would likely appear on the wedding day.
