Chapter 29
Jonathan suddenly coughed. He looked very angry.
“Only Summer can be my grandson’s wife. I won’t accept anyone except for Summer.” Jonathan shook off Alick’s hand and said seriously, “I won’t let you go if you treat Summer badly.”
Alick didn’t want to annoy Jonathan, so he apologized and promised that he would treat Summer nicely.
But Alick didn’t promise that he would treat Summer as his wife.
Alick stayed here for a night. The next morning he left after he had breakfast with Jonathan.
“Mr. Hill, are we going to the hospital now?”
“How is Sanford now?”
Bill called Summer and got to know that Sanford felt much better and would leave the hospital in the afternoon.
“Let’s go to the company.”
“Mr. Hill, you can go home to have a rest. I’ll handle the company affairs.”
There were dark circles under Alick’s eyes. Alick thought that there was no emergency in the company, so he asked Bill to send him home.
“Bill, tell Summer to attend Grandpa’s birthday party with Sanford tomorrow.”
After Alick told Jonathan that Summer was still alive, Jonathan was delighted and he ate more than usual this morning. In fact, Jonathan had had a poor appetite for a long
time.
Since Summer stayed with him, Alick decided to take advantage of her to make Jonathan happy.
Ballard, Abby, and Sanford were sleeping soundly in the ward.
Summer didn’t let Ballard and Abby return home alone because it was too late and Fay was still working last night. Therefore, Summer asked Ballard and Abby to stay in the ward for a night.

Summer told the nurse not to disturb the three kids, so they slept very well.
Time to get up. Fay will come here soon.”
Sanford woke up early. He didn’t like to stay in bed in the morning, so he got up very quickly.
Ballard yawned and then leaped out of bed. Abby buried her head in the quilt and pretended that she didn’t hear Summer’s words.
“Abby, get up. Or I’ll tickle you.”
Summer reached her hand into the quilt. Before she could touch Abby, Abby sat up and looked at Summer unhappily.
“Mommy, you know I’m ticklish,” Abby pouted and said, “You’re bad.”
Summer smiled and said, “Abby, you can sleep after we go home. Let’s have breakfast
first.”
Although Bill called her and told her that Alick wouldn’t come here, Summer was still worried.
Summer thought that Alick was fickle.
Fay was working in this hospital. She was on duty last night. After Fay finished her work, she brought Abby and Ballard home.
Abby was reluctant to leave, but Ballard took her away.
Ballard told Abby that they would see Summer and Sanford soon.
After they left, Summer told Sanford about Jonathan’s birthday party.
When Bill told her about it, Summer wanted to refuse because she didn’t know how to explain to him why she faked her own death and left.
But Bill said that Jonathan was badly ill. Jonathan was happy when he heard that Summer was alive.
Summer was touched by his words.
“Sanford, do you
know how your great grandfather is now?”
Sanford shook his head. He didn’t understand Summer’s words. He only remembered that Jonathan couldn’t even stand up when Sanford saw him last time.

Summer was worried. Jonathan was healthy when she left several years ago. She didn’t know why Jonathan was so badly ill.
Summer thought that she should come to visit Jonathan.
Summer and Sandford finally came to the Hill’s house to attend Jonathan’s birthday
party.
Jonathan’s birthday party had been very high-profile in Landom City this month. Many people scrambled to get an invitation when they got the news.
However, only people in the upper class could get an invitation.
The Hill’s house was guarded securely. They strengthened security to guard against intruders. There were many surveillance cameras. Nobody could break into the house without an invitation.
Abby and Ballard were hiding under a big tree not far from the Hill’s house.
“Do you really wanna go there? What if we are caught by the guards?”
Abby was nervous. She wouldn’t come here if she had known Ballard wanted to go to the Hill’s house.
Abby was worried that Summer would get angry with her.
“Don’t worry. They won’t find us.”
Ballard took out his iPad and hacked the network of the Hill’s house quickly. Then he saw monitoring images on the screen.
It was easy for Ballard to avoid the monitoring. But it was difficult to get into the house without being found by the guards.
But Ballard had figured out a way.
Jonathan liked musicals, so Alick invited a famous drama club to perform at the birthday party. Ballard told Abby that they could dress up as actors to get into the house.
Then Sanford would help them in the house.
“Alick treats Mommy and Sanford badly. We must teach him a lesson today.”
Ballard said angrily.

“If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have to be separated from Mommy.”
Summer had been staying with Alick these days. She occasionally came to see Ballard and Abby, Ballard was annoyed with Alick.
Ballard decided to teach Alick a lesson.
Abby was persuaded by Ballard and finally agreed to help him.
It was time for them to meet Sanford. They began to move towards the house.
Ten minutes later, Summer and Sanford arrived at the Hill’s house.
Summer looked at the house and had mixed feelings.
Since Summer married Alick, she had lived here. Everything was familiar to her when she got close to the house.
She felt that she seemed to go back to the past, but a familiar voice drew her back to reality.
“Mrs. Hill.”
Summer raised her eyes and saw an old man in a white tux walking up to her.
“I couldn’t believe it when Mr. Hill told me you were alive. Now I know it is real.”
The old man smiled at her respectfully.
“It’s glad to see you again.”
“Clark, I’m glad to see you too.”
Clark Chester was Jonathan’s butler. He helped Summer a lot when she was in the Hill’s house.
Summer smiled at Clark and said, “Now I’m not Alick’s wife. It will be better if you can call me Ms. White.”
Clark didn’t say anything. But Summer could tell that he felt pity for her.
“Mr. Hill has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me.”
After Summer left with Clark, Sanford slipped out of the door. He pretended that he wanted to go to the bathroom so that he could leave Summer just now. Sanford needed. to help Abby and Ballard later.

A few minutes later, the three kids saw each other.
These are props and costumes. You can get into the house with the drama club after you get dressed up.”
“Sanford, do you have any more beautiful costumes?” Abby looked at the rabbit doll costume in her hand unhappily.
“Don’t you like it?”
Sanford was surprised. He specially selected the costume for Abby. He thought that Abby would be very cute if she dressed up as a little rabbit.
“It is cute. But I want to dress up as a princess.”
“Don’t complain. Just change it.”
Ballard urged Abby. It would be too late to blend into the drama club if they didn’t change their clothes now.
Ballard saw the wolf doll costume in his hand. He then turned to look at Sanford.
Ballard said, “Sanford, you have a bad taste in clothes.”
Sanford was speechless when he heard Ballard’s words.
