Substitute Wife, Genius CEO novel Chapter 13

Sebastian's point was that since Summer had already caused a scene at the airport, she might as well officially demand a divorce.

She could continue collecting evidence of his infidelity while pursuing the divorce. The two processes wouldn't interfere with each other.

Knowing Xavier, he wouldn't suspect a deeper motive; he would simply assume Summer was throwing a jealous tantrum.

In fact, that was exactly what Xavier believed.

After parting ways with Sebastian, Summer drove straight toward the Sterling Estate.

On her way there, she spotted Xavier's car.

Summer arched an eyebrow in surprise. She assumed he would be too busy doting on Lily to bother returning to the estate.

If it hadn't been for the drama at the airport, Xavier certainly would have stayed by Lily's side.

But Leo had called him, asking when he was coming home and mentioning that Summer was already on her way.

Panicked that Summer might expose Lily's return to the rest of the Sterlings and cause a massive uproar, Xavier had rushed back.

The wedding in three months had to proceed flawlessly.

Xavier spotted Summer's car as well. He rolled down his window and called out, "Summer!"

Summer ignored him. She rolled her window up, her expression freezing over as she slammed her foot on the gas. The car shot forward, leaving only a blur in its wake.

Xavier raised an eyebrow, thoroughly intrigued, and immediately gave chase.

The Sterling Estate was located halfway up Southridge Heights, accessed by a winding, treacherous mountain road. Summer gripped the steering wheel with effortless calm, maneuvering the car as if it were a highly responsive toy.

She drifted through the tight corners without losing an ounce of speed, slicing through the air like a gust of wind. Her racing lines were incredibly smooth, a performance worthy of applause.

Men were naturally drawn to speed and adrenaline.
