Chapter 184: Sean Sterling Suspects Summer Nolan!
CHAPTER 184: CHAPTER 184: SEAN STERLING SUSPECTS SUMMER NOLAN!
"It was at the last party. She was being chased by a group of bodyguards, and I saved her," Ian Sterling said.
"Since you rescued her, she should be grateful to you. Why does she dislike you?" Summer Nolan asked, puzzled.
Ian was taken aback, expecting her to ask whose bodyguards they were or why they chased her. But she asked why Vivian disliked him?
"Probably... because I meddled in her affairs. The first time I saved her, she was indeed grateful, but later, when I saw her with a group of thugs, I said something to her."
"Oh," Summer responded, half-believing, before asking again, "Whose bodyguards were they? Why were they chasing her?"
"They were Yara Grant’s father’s bodyguards. I heard from her that Arthur Grant took a liking to her. I guess he brought her to a hotel that night, and she ran into me when she escaped."
Ian cautiously explained, fearing she might suspect something between him and Vivian.
"..." A shadow passed over Summer’s face. Arthur Grant dared to take my sister to a hotel? Like father, like daughter!
I must teach the Grant Family a lesson.

Sean Sterling also saw the explosive news in the morning. Because he had collaborated with Raymond Dawson for many years, he had even helped himself win several shady cases.
The two were considered old friends.
Seeing him being exposed by the media for opening a hotel room with a woman, not only ruining his reputation but also being harshly criticized online, he couldn’t help but wonder—
Is the person who framed me the same as the one who framed him?
He immediately called that man—
Raymond Dawson just returned home from the police station, only to be met by his fierce wife. As soon as he stepped into the villa, she grabbed his hair and swung a big slap at him.
"I won’t let you off today! Had fun with that little vixen last night, huh? Tell me, how long have you been with her?" Mrs. Dawson angrily questioned while hitting him, her waist wide and belly round.
The servants in the villa stood far in the corner, silently watching, not daring to make a sound.
"Let go of me!" Raymond’s scalp ached from her pulling. Outside, he was so commanding. Who dared to disrespect him?
This woman was giving him no face at all. Enraged, he also grabbed her hair, "If you’re unhappy, get a divorce!"
"Divorce? Fine, but only if you leave with nothing," Mrs. Dawson said angrily.
"All the money in this house was earned by me. No way I’m leaving with nothing! It’s you who should get out; I’ve put up with you for years! So fat and ugly, like a pig!" Raymond was already furious today, and now she was provoking him?
"You, you dare call me a pig? I’ll fight you to the death today!" Mrs. Dawson clawed his face, and as they fought wildly, his phone rang.
Raymond forcefully pushed her away, glanced at his phone, and saw it was the Sterling chairman. Puzzled, why would he call now?
"Stop it, I’m answering a call." He said angrily to the woman, took the phone, and went upstairs to answer: "What’s up, Chairman Sterling? You’re not calling to mock me, are you?"
"Mock you for what? I just wanted to ask if you know who framed you," Sean Sterling sat on his luxurious sofa, smoking a cigar, speaking deeply.
"It should be Elias Spencer and Summer Nolan..." Raymond gritted his teeth, squinting slightly.
Sean was shocked, Elias Spencer and Summer Nolan?
"Are you sure it’s them?"
"Last night, I was at a gathering with colleagues from the law firm, someone spiked my drink. It must have been Summer Nolan. The person who took me out of the booth was Elias Spencer.
My firm’s employees said they’ve been in cahoots for a while," he said deeply, now truly believing they were partners in crime.
The last drink was with Summer. The drinks before were fine, but after the last one, things went wrong.
If not her, then who?
"..." Sean’s face was somber. Could Summer be the one harming him too? But they had no enmity; why harm him?
And about Elias Spencer, he was courteous to him, no grudges with the Spencer Family, seemingly friendly on the surface. No reason to harm him.
"Why did Chairman Sterling suddenly ask about this?" Raymond asked.
"Just suspecting if the person who harmed you might be the same one who harmed me... Haven’t you noticed we were harmed in the same way?" he spoke deeply.
Raymond thought for a moment, realizing it was true! Suddenly relieved that he slept with a woman last night and not a man.
That Sean Sterling, at his age, being with a man...
"It must be those two ruthless people, Summer and Elias. We need to retaliate," he thought of using the old trickster to deal with them.
"Let me investigate first," Sean Sterling didn’t want to be used by him and hung up.
Raymond was furious, the coward, if he didn’t act, he would make sure to finish them himself! His eyes darted as he called an old acquaintance...
Around ten at night.
The hospital was quiet; there weren’t many people outside, and most inpatients were resting in their rooms.
Vivian had slept during the day and couldn’t sleep now. She was watching a movie with her sister, Summer sitting beside the hospital bed, peeling fruit.
"I have to go to work tomorrow, better tell Mom, she can come to take care of you. A caregiver doesn’t pay such attention, and I don’t feel safe with you alone in the hospital.
I just taught Raymond Dawson a lesson today; he would surely suspect me. If he can’t retaliate against me, he’ll definitely trouble you guys."
Summer worriedly told her sister, needing to find a reliable bodyguard quickly.
"Alright, should I call some people to follow you?" Vivian was also concerned about her safety.
"You’d better not mix with those shady people, stay away from them. How could they be good people?" Summer advised her.
"Got it," she replied perfunctorily, knowing that in her sister’s view, all shady people weren’t good, no point explaining.
"Bang!!" The ward door was suddenly pushed open. At the doorway stood a dozen flamboyantly dressed men, looking gangly. The bald leader asked the two women inside:
"Which one of you is Summer Nolan?"
"I am."
Summer looked at them, suspecting they were sent by Raymond, and fearing they’d hurt her sister, she admitted it directly, then stood up calmly, saying:
"Since you’re looking for me, shall we talk outside?"
"You’re pretty calm," the bald man disliked her demeanor. Not afraid of him? He’d definitely make sure to kick her a few times!
The employer said to cripple her legs, make sure she’s disabled.
"Then cut the nonsense, let’s go out." As Summer prepared to leave, Vivian worriedly grabbed her hand: "I’ll go out with you."
