The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 675: Jealousy
Summer Monroe hadn’t yet reacted when Damian Knight had already eaten it in just a few bites.
"That’s Holly Holloway’s!"
"I know." Damian Knight blurted out, then quickly corrected himself: "I wasn’t full, and maybe she already had breakfast? Taking it would be a waste, better for me to eat it instead."
He didn’t want to share anything his wife made, even if the sandwich was big enough that he was now feeling stuffed and finding it hard to breathe.
Summer Monroe didn’t think much of it, just assumed Damian Knight had a big appetite.
She took a sip of milk and started talking to Damian Knight about Old Madam Stanton.
"Old Madam Stanton passed away."
Damian Knight was slightly surprised and asked, "What happened?"
"She fell and probably hurt something inside."
Just as Summer finished speaking, Isaac Ross’s call came through.
After listening intently, a sarcastic smile curled up on her lips. "I understand. Thank you."
She hung up the phone and let out a scornful laugh. "The old lady didn’t have to die. The machine I donated to Ross Hospital—Henry Stanton refused to spend money to buy it, leading to her surgery failing, and she passed away a bit after midnight."
Damian Knight looked incredulous.
"I knew Henry Stanton was someone who put his interests first, but I didn’t expect him to have no limits like this."
Summer raised an eyebrow: "I’m not at all surprised. If he were willing to pay for the old lady’s surgery, then I’d question my own judgment."
"Oh, right." Damian Knight remembered Stella Monroe’s situation and said, "Bella and Cece are off to Myanmar today, and Stella Monroe’s medication results should be out soon."
Summer nodded, glanced at her watch, and said, "It’s about time. I’m off to school."
"I’ll take you."
They headed downstairs together, coincidentally running into the auntie who had brought fruits yesterday as she entered.
The auntie had a smile with an inexplicable meaning and greeted them warmly: "The couple heading to work?"
Summer was momentarily taken aback, not yet having a chance to react when Damian Knight already replied, "Yes, thank you for the fruits yesterday. I’ll have my wife invite you over for a meal someday."
"Sure, sure." The auntie smiled and went upstairs.
Summer blushed and glared at Damian Knight: "Who’s your wife?"
"You are." Damian Knight glanced sideways at her. "Aren’t you?"
Summer bit her lip, not planning to meet Damian Knight’s gaze. Whenever their eyes met, her heart couldn’t help but race.
She needed to see a psychologist as soon as possible!
When they reached the gate of Crestfall University, Summer saw Willow Grant and a group of teachers as soon as she got out of the car.
She happened to run into Holly Holloway, who was heading out to buy breakfast, and Holly muttered softly, "They’re waiting for the teacher from Britton University. Look at Willow, she’s been staring at us."
Summer turned her head to look and saw that Willow’s eyes were full of jealousy.
—She had seen Summer getting out of Damian Knight’s car.
Summer ignored Willow and said to Holly, "I have something to do, so I won’t join you for breakfast."
"No problem, head back to class. I’ll get you some soy milk."
"Okay." Summer nodded, watched Holly leave, and quickly walked through the school gate.
She really didn’t want to run into the Britton University teacher, just in case she was recognized.
Just as Summer entered the school gate, a car stopped by the roadside.
A few teachers immediately went to greet it.
"Professor Harlan!"
The elderly man with white hair got out of the car and energetically greeted them, "Hello, hello."
He spoke in broken Mandarin, and Willow Grant seized the chance to speak with the newly learned Aurelia accent: "Your Chinese is excellent!"
Professor Harlan promptly turned his attention to Willow and said in English, shaking his head: "This is just freshly learned Chinese. I know I don’t speak it well. Your compliment is more than I deserve. But your Aurelia English is on par with my Chinese."
