Chapter 185 - 185: Suppression
Dylan Summers told Nathaniel Summers about his daughter being expelled from school.
Of course, he pushed all the blame on Purple Summers, and Laura Summers was an innocent victim.
“…I don’t know where she got the answers from, but she stuffed them in Laura’s bag, and no matter how I explain it to the school, it’s no use! Nathaniel, Laura is already in second grade, and in just over a year, she should be taking the National joint entrance examination, we can’t afford this delay.”
Dylan’s tone was heavy, as if he was a worried father in need of help.
On the other end, Nathaniel Summers was silent for a long time, murmuring, “…Was it Purple who did it?”
Purple, it’s always Purple…
Recently, everything that happened at home seemed to have something to do with her.
“Who else could it be but Purple? If she didn’t cheat, how could she have the guts to take the grade-skipping test? You know, Purple dropped out of middle school!” Dylan sighed heavily, “This child is too vicious! She’s forcing Laura down a dead end.”
Nathaniel said, “Big brother, don’t worry first, I’ll try to ask Aunt Jameson if there’s a way to solve this.”
“Tomorrow, Nathaniel, you go and ask for help for me tomorrow.” Dylan was in a hurry, “Laura can’t go to school now.”
Nathaniel agreed at once.
Nathaniel was nostalgic, valued family, and he has always had a good relationship with Dylan, so he would definitely help.
Dylan’s mood finally settled down slightly.
If he could avoid it, he really didn’t want to ask the Jameson Family for help.
It was because he had been slapped harshly last time.
When the Jameson Family needed his help, he only casually introduced a few lawyers and did not put in much effort.
At that time, he thought that Henry Jameson’s case was already sealed and the Jameson Family would be disgraced because of it. Dylan Summers had no time to avoid the situation, let alone put in the effort to help? After all, no one wants to be connected to a rapist.
Avoiding misfortune is human nature, and everyone pushes when the wall falls. In the Jameson Family’s time of crisis, Dylan chose to watch coldly from the sidelines.
Who would’ve known that there would be a shocking reversal in the end! That female student actually turned herself in and cleared Henry Jameson’s name!
The Jameson Family went from despair to prosperity.
And now, because of his daughter’s situation, he had no choice but to lower his voice and ask for their help.
The face of appearing ingratiating and sycophantic was really not pleasing.
What if the help isn’t even granted and he ends up being humiliated and mocked by them instead?
Dylan thought about this, and he couldn’t stop feeling furious. Laura was indeed foolish, but the culprit was Purple! If it weren’t for Purple, how would Laura have made such a ridiculous mistake?!
This Purple is just a troublemaker! She needs to be dealt with!
At this moment, Dylan was filled with loathing for Purple.
However, remembering Purple’s relationship with the Jameson Family, the evil thoughts that had risen in his heart sank again.
Purple’s current relationship with the Jameson Family is too good, there is no need to deal with her at this juncture, let’s wait and see, wait and see…
In the evening, the warm setting sun shone diagonally into the living room. The floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open, and occasionally a cool breeze blew in, carrying the fragrance of grass and trees.
Purple was comfortably nestled in the sofa, reading a book.
Behind her, the glass case occupying half the wall was tinted gold by the sunlight, and the boa constrictor coiled on the dead wood of the scenery, lazily motionless.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flew in-
The crow landed on the glass case, holding a small branch in its beak. It hopped around on the case for a bit, then tried to stuff the branch through the ventilation hole.
It fell directly onto Cleo.
Perhaps the force wasn’t strong enough, so the snake didn’t really react. The crow, however, didn’t give up and fetched many more dried leaves, branches, and small stones from outside, seemingly determined to fill the entire enclosure.
“Tiny, stop it,” Purple scolded.
She hadn’t yet become accustomed to the name she gave it just two hours ago, so the crow didn’t even know she was talking about it. Tilting its head, it ruffled its feathers, looking very clever and lively.
Purple was worried, not knowing how to clean up the mess inside the enclosure.
At that moment, the phone suddenly rang. She answered the call without paying any more attention to the crow.
“Dylan Summers has gone to the Jameson Family, what should we do next?” Aria Jackson’s voice came from the other side of the phone..
