Chapter 383 Craig tapped his nose thoughtfully. What kind of superstar had he signed? Summer snapped back to reality, glanced at her agent, and then stood up briskly. “I'll give It a shot. My foster parents were decent toback in the day.” Craig, though dubious, was relieved that the situation hadn’t escalated to a nightmare scenario. “Alright then, off you go. I'll wait for your update. And hand over your Twitter login. I'll have someone draft an apology tweet.” At the mention of an apology tweet, Summer's eyelids drooped slightly as she murmured softly, “No need.” Apologizing now would be futile, only making her seem more insincere to her followers.

Once there, she stood outside for a long while, watching people cand go in the lobby, finally mustering enough courage to step inside.
She pressed the button for the top floor in the elevator, her heart rising with the ascent, anxious about the reception she might receive. She wondered if her foster parents would be willing to help her or if they'd turn a cold shoulder, especially since she had nearly tarnished Leo's reputation.
