Purple’s movement downstairs hesitated for a moment.
After about two seconds of pause, she walked down as usual and said lightly, “Oh, didn’t we have salt and pepper shrimp last night? I don’t know why, but I felt itchy after eating it, and when I scratched a few times, it turned into this…”
Atra Blanc did not suspect anything and instead felt guilty, “You must be allergic, I won’t cook shrimp next time.”
Purple forced a smile at the corner of her mouth, “It’s okay…”
But Atra was concerned and let Purple sit down to rest, taking the laundry basket from her hand and taking it to the laundry room.
As soon as Atra left, Purple jumped up from the sofa and rushed into the bathroom on the first floor!
In the mirror, she saw faint dark red bruises on her neck, not just one or two, but in groups!
She really should “thank” Alexander Summers for his recklessness, which made these bruises connected together, making them look very different from hickeys! Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to explain it even with a hundred mouths!
Purple gripped the edge of the ceramic sink with both hands, taking a deep breath to calm her anger.
Alexander Summers would be the death of her sooner or later.
Atra returned from the laundry room, changed into a new outfit, and prepared to go out, saying that she had to go to the bank.
Alexander was nowhere to be found, and she didn’t know if her son had come back at night.
Even Purple was surprised. What was he up to, coming back late at night and leaving early in the morning?
Was it because he rushed back last night just to question her about meeting Nathaniel?
Purple despised him even more.
After Atra left, Purple was the only one left at home.
Purple wanted to log in to her email and check the files she had copied from her laptop, but because of Alexander’s actions, she was restless and couldn’t calm down.
The cicadas outside the house were singing non-stop, making it even more desperate because their lives were coming to an end.
Purple found it irritating and even more agitated.
She poured herself a glass of cold water and drank it while thinking about Alexander.
She wasn’t really naive and ignorant. Although she had never experienced love, it was obvious what Alexander’s intentions were towards her, even a fool could see it.
What was this to him? Love? Purple didn’t believe it.
She thought maybe it was because she was so different from his sister after being reborn that it piqued his interest.
Interest gave rise to liking, and after liking came possession, just like seeing a beautiful flower by the road, picking it because it’s interesting, playing with it for a while and then carelessly discarding it.
There was no need for a reason to pick or discard a flower.
Purple seemed to see her future – either being discovered that she had been involved with her brother, which would lead to her losing reputation and getting the cold shoulder, or being discarded by Alexander after getting tired of her, leaving her with no dignity.
Purple turned pale at the thought of the terrible outcomes.
She couldn’t accept it!
If only she could live on campus after school started, then she could avoid him…
But would Alexander let her go? That kind of person… wouldn’t give up until he got what he wanted. If she pushed him too hard, he might really make their relationship public, like a rich young man pursuing a star or model, making it widely known and causing a stir.
Purple didn’t want that!
There was a sudden knock on the door, startling Purple.
She was jittery now, and any disturbance would make her think of Alexander.
However, Alexander wouldn’t knock on the door. He was a robber, a bandit; he would go anywhere he wanted without asking for permission.
Purple opened the door.
Jade Carlson was standing outside, wearing a seemingly friendly but actually condescending smile.
“Hello, can we talk?”
