Chapter 53: You’re Not Being Good
Translator: 549690339
Purple Summers returned home just in time.
Atra Blanc had finished cooking and was setting the tableware when she saw Purple come in, and gently said, “Go wash your hands, dinner’s ready.”
Purple smiled and agreed.
Alexander Summers was not at home, leaving only the mother and daughter at the dinner table.
Atra called Alexander, but no one answered, which made her worry.
“Your brother may not be coming home again tonight…” Atra sighed.
She ate silently with a better appetite.
Atra continued to mutter, “He said he’d start a company, but who knows how that’s going? Always out and never home, I’m really worried…”
Purple thought: it would be better if he never comes back.
Her son’s playboy nature was a constant worry, but luckily her daughter was becoming more and more sensible and well-behaved. Atra found some comfort in this.
“In a few days, I’ll take you to visit Grey and see the campus. If it’s suitable, we’ll pay the tuition right away,” Atra thoughtfully planned for Purple, “We also need to start preparing some learning materials.”
“No need,” Purple was deeply engrossed in dissecting a salt and pepper crispy shrimp and replied, “My eldest brother will pay my tuition.”
Atra’s expression showed difficulty, “Purple, I’m afraid he won’t agree…”
“He will.” Purple grinned at Atra and bit the shrimp flesh, “Don’t worry, mom.”
Atra saw Purple’s unwavering certainty and opened her mouth, unsure of what to say.
In her opinion, getting Dylan Summers to be so generous was impossible.
Atra assumed that Purple didn’t know about the high tuition fees at Grey, so she didn’t say more. She didn’t want to ruin her daughter’s good mood. Secretly, she decided to go to the bank in a few days and open a separate account for Purple’s tuition.
The stars were exceptionally bright on this summer night, casting a silver glow over the Summers Residence’s backyard. The tranquil beauty was breathtaking.
Purple sat by the window, enjoying the breeze, and gradually felt sleepy.
There won’t be many more peaceful and relaxing days , she thought.
To see the tangled interests and ugly faces beneath the Summers Family’s shining exterior, she had to uncover them bit by bit.
She yawned gently, closed the curtains, and lay down to rest.
She quickly fell asleep…
Amidst her deep slumber, Purple felt a chill.
She instinctively reached out for the thin blanket on her body but couldn’t find it, so she turned over.
Her fingers touched a firm, sturdy chest. Still half-asleep, she didn’t immediately react and thought she was dreaming. That was until something cold touched her lips—
Purple suddenly woke up!
She practically leaped out of bed!
Struggling to escape, she was scooped up by the man’s arm at the edge of the bed!
“Alexander Summers! Let go of me!”
There was no need to think! The only person in the Summers Family who would dare to do something as shocking as sneaking into a woman’s bedroom at night was Alexander Summers!
Alexander pinned Purple’s hands down and pressed her onto the bed.
In the darkness, his face was blurry, but his voice remained as low and wicked as ever, “You can scream louder if you want and call mom to see how we look right now.”
Purple’s body instantly stiffened.
Alexander had no shame, but she did!
If Atra saw, Purple would want to die!
Feeling Purple stop struggling, Alexander took the opportunity to pull her into his arms, gently stroking her dark, lush hair like a cat calming down.
“Did you see Nathaniel Summers today?” he asked.
Purple was startled. How did he know, even though he hadn’t been home all day?
The man leaned in closer, his dangerous voice husky, “Purple, you’ve become naughty..”
