Seeing that Summer Thorne wasn't forcing a smile or just trying to placate him with empty words, Louis Sutton frowned slightly and decided not to press her any further.
Summer's state remained the same the following day.
That day, Timothy York called her several times: once in the morning, once around noon, another during her lunch break, and one more just before she went to sleep. After all those calls, Summer was finally convinced that Timothy was doing all right, and the heavy anxiety she'd been feeling finally began to subside.
On the third day, the situation remained stable, but then something strange happened—
She received a completely unexpected call from the York family's butler.
"My apologies for the intrusion, Miss Thorne. Tomorrow is Mr. York's birthday. I am calling on his orders to extend a special invitation for you to join us at the main residence."
Summer had never expected to receive such an invitation.
