Chapter 103 - 103: White Shadow
Purple Summers stood still, not answering for a moment.
Such a question, in her opinion, was both ironic and ridiculous.
“What do you think, Brother Three?” Purple Summers didn’t turn around, her voice coldly questioning.
Her tight-fitting slit dress outlined her graceful and enchanting figure, but her words were sharp like icy daggers.
“I almost drowned when Laura pushed me into the lake, and you asked me to let it go. I wanted to study at Grey’s Academy, and you advised me to attend a regular school. Now, when I want to support myself and give some help to Mr. Jameson, you’re here to interfere.” Purple Summers laughed coldly, “Brother Three, I’d like to ask you, have I offended you?”
Nathaniel Summers’s face slightly changed, “You…you’re still holding a grudge against me because of Laura’s incident?”
He then suddenly realized and couldn’t help but say, “That’s why you insisted on having that pink Hummer?!”
It was alright if Nathaniel didn’t mention the car, but when he brought it up, it made Purple Summers more irritated!
—Her car was ruined! Completely ruined!
“You knew that was your sister-in-law’s car. She loved that Hummer even if she could only drive it a few times a month. She would still take it for cleaning and maintenance. To spite me, you used a recording to blackmail Laura. Purple, you’re too willful!…”
Nathaniel’s endless chatter sounded like annoying flies buzzing in Purple Summers’s ears!
“Your sister-in-law would only thank me!”
Purple Summers could no longer tolerate it and interrupted Nathaniel, “Wouldn’t it be better for her younger sister-in-law to have her car, rather than let some other woman drive it?!”
Nathaniel’s face turned pale, trying to explain, “Jade Carlson was your sister-in-law’s most capable assistant and her best friend. When she was alive, she occasionally lent the car to Jade as well…”
It was precisely because Jade appeared to be intimate with Suzanne Saunders that Nathaniel didn’t think twice before agreeing to lend her the car when she asked for it.
“Who told you that? Did Jade say it herself?” Purple Summers couldn’t bear it. “Suzanne Saunders’s most capable assistant is called Allen Rivera, and her best friend is called Aria Jackson! What does Jade count as?! In terms of ability, she didn’t get a promotion after three years of internship, in terms of education, she merely graduated from a second-rate university, and in terms of conduct, she is a mistress who hooks up with other people’s husbands! She has no redeeming qualities; why would she be friends with Clearwater City’s most outstanding prosecutor?!”
Purple Summers nearly cursed her out!
Nathaniel looked at her in shock, his face turning a mixture of green and white.
Perhaps it was out of shame, or perhaps out of astonishment, he did not make a sound for a long time.
Purple Summers sighed, shaking her head and muttering to herself, “Why am I even telling you this…So stupid…”
She was provoked by Nathaniel, and lost control for a moment.
In fact, just seeing Nathaniel’s face made her furious, and she couldn’t keep calm.
She should have been calm. After calming down, she should search for clues instead of engaging in pointless accusations and angry scolding here.
“How…how did you know? About Suzanne Saunders, how did you know?” After a long silence, Nathaniel’s voice came out hoarsely, his black pupils flashing with an unusual light.
Purple Summers felt annoyed, “It’s not a secret. Anyone who wants to can look it up.”
Then she looked up, her expression cold, and said, “Nathaniel Summers, I’ll tell you clearly, I despise you and look down on you. Don’t talk to me in the future.” Nathaniel pursed his lips, staring unblinkingly at her with an eye full of doubt. Purple Summers didn’t look at him, lowered her head, and rubbed her wrist that had been grabbed earlier. Her furrowed eyebrows showed her annoyance, “…And don’t touch me again, I find it disgusting.”
She picked up her camera and left, not bothering with the man behind her.
Nathaniel’s face flushed with embarrassment, and he stood there for a while before leaving in a hurry, looking somewhat flustered.
The bamboo forest quivered slightly, its branches and leaves swaying.
Behind the layers of green shadow, a white skirt gracefully danced and flew in the breeze, forming a beautiful curve before disappearing….
