Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

She merely saw that Purple had saved Mrs. Farrell’s child and wanted her to plead on her behalf.

If she had agreed too readily, it would have made her appear too cheap, so Purple Summers refused Jade Carlson’s request.

Two days later, the governor’s secretary and Mrs. Farrell paid a visit.

They had come specifically to thank Purple Summers, so they went straight to the little Western-style building.

Upon seeing Purple Summers, Camilla Farrell excitedly introduced her to her husband, “This is Ms. Summers, it was her snake that saved our daughter!”

The governor’s secretary, named Caden West, was ten years older than Camilla Farrell, with deep laugh lines on his face. He said, “Ms. Summers, I have already been made aware of what happened that day. You had the courage to save my daughter under those circumstances—I am very grateful to you!”

“You are too kind,” Purple Summers replied modestly, “Actually, you really don’t need to thank me. I merely helped a little. The true savior of your young lady was herself. If she hadn’t clung to that ball of yarn, I wouldn’t have been able to do anything.”

Purple Summers did not show pride for her deeds and even complimented their child’s intelligence, making both Caden West and Camilla Farrell laugh happily.

Camilla Farrell said with a smile, “Could it be that there is truly such a thing as fate in this world? After returning home that day, my baby refused to let go of it. I forcibly took it from her, and she cried until she was allowed to keep that ball of yarn in her hand to fall asleep.”

Her husband gently patted her hand and said, “Don’t think that because she’s young, she knows nothing. I believe, actually, she understands everything in her heart—that thing is her amulet!”

The corners of Purple Summers’ mouth twitched slightly…

She felt that Cleo would be frustrated—the yarn sleeve…seemed like it was not coming back.

As expected, Camilla Farrell’s next words were, “Ms. Summers, could you sell me that ball of yarn? I can exchange it with something else for you. I’m really sorry, my daughter just can’t let go of it and I…as a mother, I can’t bear to see her cry.”

“It’s okay, I understand…” Purple Summers smiled sheepishly, not expecting that an old piece of yarn would now become a treasure—fought over by both snakes and people.

Camilla Farrell was extremely pleased and asked, “Ms. Summers, I can’t just take your possession for nothing. If there’s anything you like, or any request you have, please tell me, and I will do my utmost to fulfill it!”

Purple Summers couldn’t help but glance at the gifts they had brought with them, nearly piling up like a small mountain.

Secretary Wiggins laughed heartily, “Ms. Summers, you don’t have to feel burdened. My wife is such a person—once she has received someone’s kindness, she will be endlessly grateful, wishing she could give the best things in the world to the other person!”

At this moment, Atra Blanc came over with tea.

Camilla Farrell took the tea cup from her hands and said apologetically, “Ms. Blanc, I was rude to you that day, and I’m really sorry! Ever since having a child, I’ve been too sensitive and impulsive, offending you, and I’m very sorry.”

Atra Blanc was unexpectedly apologized to and was stunned for a moment before she hurriedly said, “…it’s okay, it’s okay. There were so many guests that day, you needed to take care of the child and entertain others. It’s impossible to attend to everything, I understand.”

Camilla Farrell looked at Atra Blanc closely, and seeing not a trace of resentment in her eyes, with a calm and tranquil demeanor, she couldn’t help but sigh softly to herself.

She thought Atra Blanc was extremely pure and kind, and yet she had taken sides and misunderstood her, which was really inappropriate.

Thinking of this, Camilla Farrell felt even more resentful towards Jade Carlson!

She hated herself even more for keeping such an ungrateful and malicious person by her side, not only harming herself but also nearly harming her child!

Camilla Farrell was filled with regret.

When leaving, Camilla Farrell emphasized time and again to Purple Summers, “If Ms. Summers encounters any difficulties, please be sure to tell me! You saved my daughter, you are a benefactor to our entire family!”

Thus, not only did Jade Carlson’s conspiracy fail to succeed, but it also allowed Purple Summers to forge a connection with Mrs. Farrell.
