Chapter 1129: Unfinished Business—Shall We Continue?
Summer Sutton rested for a few hours after the others left.
Her injury wasn’t serious, and the next day she normally went to the program site.
After Omega Bennet’s dramatic act yesterday, nobody dared to treat her lightly now, and wherever she appeared, someone would attend to her fervently.
Even when she was holding a camera, afraid it might be too heavy for her, there were staff members offering to help.
The recording location remained the forest from yesterday.
Not long after Summer Sutton arrived, Lorraine Hughes also showed up.
Glancing in her direction, Summer Sutton inconspicuously watched her with scrutiny.
Was yesterday’s incident intentional or accidental on her part?
Summer Sutton had actually considered whether yesterday’s accident was deliberate on Lorraine Hughes’ part.
However, thinking about how she couldn’t predict whether Summer would save her or not, and couldn’t foresee whether she could escape the mud pit alive, Summer figured she probably wouldn’t have the nerve.
After all, being a popular celebrity with a promising future and the daughter of a multinational company tycoon, her life is precious; there’s no need to jeopardize herself to drag Summer down.
Summer Sutton was lost in thought as she stared at Lorraine Hughes, when suddenly, Omega Bennet’s voice rang beside her, "Miss Hughes, my girlfriend saved you yesterday. Shouldn’t Miss Hughes say something?"
His voice was raised somewhat, and many of the staff on the scene turned their gazes simultaneously toward Lorraine Hughes, all staring at her.
Lorraine Hughes suddenly felt a bit embarrassed being watched by so many people.
From the time the accident happened until now, indeed, she hadn’t spoken a word to Summer Sutton, nor had she shown concern for Summer Sutton’s life.
The whole day yesterday, Lorraine Hughes continued doing whatever she needed to do, her mood unaffected by the incident.
With Omega Bennet’s courteous reminder, people’s gaze towards Lorraine Hughes turned a bit incredulous.
This version of her doesn’t quite align with the image she’s known for: beautiful with a good heart.
With so many eyes watching, whether Lorraine Hughes should express gratitude to Summer Sutton became a dilemma.
Though internally unwilling to thank, she nevertheless approached slowly in adherence to her image.
With a slight smile tugging at her lips, Lorraine Hughes looked at Summer Sutton with sincerity, "Miss Sutton, thank you for yesterday. I actually thought of checking on you yesterday, but figured you needed rest, so I decided to postpone it for a while."
"Miss Hughes, better to avoid any incidents in the future." Summer Sutton diverted her gaze and busied herself elsewhere.
Omega Bennet stood beside expressionless, witnessing the scene, his gaze toward Lorraine Hughes was somewhat chilly.
His penetrating gaze, once turned cold, was indeed a bit unnerving, an invisible chill from deep within, like a blade scraping painfully against one’s skin.
Lorraine Hughes felt inexplicably guilty under his scrutiny.
Caught in his stare, Lorraine Hughes was stunned for a few seconds.
"Regarding yesterday, let’s hope Miss Hughes wasn’t intentional!" Omega Bennet dropped this remark before heading off towards Summer Sutton.
That day, he didn’t bother with work, instead stayed at the location accompanying Summer Sutton throughout.
Everyone could see his anxiety for Summer Sutton.
He feared another unexpected incident like yesterday, didn’t he?
Wrap-up came around past five o’clock.
After finishing, Omega Bennet drove Summer Sutton to Shining Sky’s garden in the suburbs.
He happened to catch up on the work missed today, bringing Summer along purely for company.
Summer Sutton particularly liked this garden, wandering here and there, her figure in the garden like a fluttering butterfly.
Omega Bennet turned his head watching her in this state, suddenly recalling the unfinished matter the two had in this place before...
