《The President's Darling》全部章節：第 441 章 - 第 450 章

As Summer pondered the situation, she came to realize the challenges James faced. Despite waking up earlier than her every day, he had never accidentally disturbed her slumber. This demonstrated his carefulness, which deeply touched Summer. James revealed himself to be a caring individual.After waking up, Summer went to the bathroom and washed up. Upon returning to the room, she found James still asleep, even though it was already 6:05 am, a departure from his usual wake-up time. Contemplating whether to rouse him, Summer recalled his late-night work session, extending until 2:00 am. Considering this, she concluded that he deserved more rest.Silently approaching James, Summer grappled with the dilemma. Failing to awaken him might lead to his discontent upon waking later. "I should wake him up…" she muttered to herself, reaching out tentatively. However, she hesitated just before making contact.The sunlight illuminated James' handsome features, casting him in a statuesque light.

James went back into the house. He held Summer's hand and said, "It's fine. I can skip one day of work. I'll delegate the work to my subordinates. They'll take care of it for me." "Will you be able to rest? Can you really rest for one day?" Summer asked in disbelief. "Of course."Summer breathed a sigh of relief, trusting in James's astuteness to have considered the consequences of resting beforehand. His willingness to heed her advice reassured her that the situation wasn't dire. Therefore, after half an hour, Summer and James got out of bed and ate breakfast together for the first time. There was no one in the dining hall. Caroline and Norman were still sleeping, so Summer and James were the only ones there. Their diligent subordinates, clad in white uniforms, served them a sumptuous array of delicate Mestern dishes. Breakfast at the Quigley residence was a grand affair, a stark departure from Summer's usual bread and milk routine. The spread was opulent, featuring ov

"This is great," Summer exclaimed. Then, she entered the house. Although she had married into the Quigley family, she still had the keys to Charter Estate. So she could return whenever she wanted. Meanwhile, Amelia heard the door open, thinking that Fred had returned. However, she soon realized that it was Summer who had come home. She was so happy that she almost cried. "Summie, my darling, you're home." Amelia quickly approached her daughter and hugged her. The atmosphere was touching and filled with warmth. As Summer and Amelia caught up enthusiastically, James began to feel out of place, like an outsider in their reunion. While they chatted animatedly, he stood awkwardly, unsure of how to engage with them.When they moved to the living room, Amelia turned her attention to James. "Have you been busy with work lately?" she inquired."No. Thank you for your concern, Mom." James had not interacted much with Amelia. So, when he called her mom, it felt rather awkward. That mad

Caroline stormed out of the living room in her chiffon scarf, her anger palpable.Meanwhile, James stood at the staircase, unmoved by Caroline's presence. Without glancing back, he took hold of Summer's hand and led her away, seemingly ignoring his mother's reproach.Caroline's frustration surged. "James, are you defying me? Won't you heed your mother?" she demanded, pointing accusingly at him. Closing in on James, she grasped his arm tightly. "Were you absent from work today? Your absence during crucial business dealings allowed our competitors to capitalize. Do you have nothing to say for yourself?"James remained indifferent. He didn't want to say anything. Summer's anxiety escalated. With James absent from the company, its stocks plummeted. She wondered if she bore partial responsibility for this turn of events, having insisted James take a day off to accompany her to visit her parents.Summer didn't want Caroline to continue scolding James. Moreover, he was the president o

James didn't answer Caroline's question. Instead, he retorted, "Mom, don't you trust me?"This response left Caroline puzzled. She held an unwavering faith in her son, especially considering his notable contributions during his tenure as the company's president."James, I don't understand what you're doing. You have the capability to resolve this issue today, yet—""Mom, trust me. The company will return to its normal state by tomorrow."With a serious demeanor, James grasped Summer's hand and proceeded toward the bedroom on the third floor. As the couple departed, murmurs erupted among the managers."What's going on? Why is Mr. Quigley like this?" "Yes, why isn't he solving the issue now? Is he rushing to do something with Mrs. Quigley?""I think so. After all, Mr. Quigley is a young man with a lot of energy. Since he's married now, he's probably going to do something with her."The stern-faced managers cracked a joke. Everyone in the room tried to make light of the situatio
