Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Has It Been Revealed? 1
Translator: 549690339
This was a very common remark.
As the elder, advising the youngsters in the family not to waste their formative years and to focus on self-improvement through reading is normal in any family.
But the timing and context made this statement particularly grating and ironic to Purple Summers
โ She hadnโt even made him apologize on his knees, yet he was demanding an apology from her?!
How ridiculous!
Purple Summers raised her head expressionlessly, her deep, ink-colored eyes seemed to be freezing over with frost, exuding a chilling intensity.
Nathaniel Summers was stilled by her icy and sharp gaze, standing in place dumbfounded.
But within a blink, Purple Summers withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes and hurried off the stairs.
Watching Purple Summers leave, Nathaniel Summers felt an odd sensation.
He couldnโt understand, how could a teenage girl harbor such an aggressive gaze?โฆ It seemed to be filled with resentment.
Maybe he was mistakenโฆ
Purple Summers returned to the Garden Mansion.
The breakfast on the table had already gone cold.
Atra Blanc nervously stared at her face, โPurple, did youโฆ have another argument with your brother?โ
Purple Summers was caught off guard by the question.
She touched her own face, only to realizeโฆ
Because her face looked horrible, Atra Blanc had mistaken it for a fallout with Alexander Summers.
Ever since she was discharged from the hospital, the siblings seemed to be always at odds, frequently squabbling. It was no wonder that Atra Blanc had such assumptions.
โNo.โ Purple Summers managed a smile with no intention of letting Atra Blanc in on the truth. โI just got scared by a snake when I went to wake my brother up. Mother, Cleo seems well-taken care under my brother, letโs continue to keep it that way.โ
She wasnโt up to owning such a pet anyway.
Listening to this, Atra Blanc frowned and said, โAlthough itโs just a pet snake, it is better to be cautious. What if it bites you? When Laura Summers first gave it to you, I felt she might have ulterior motives. If such things happen again, you must tell Mother, understand?โ
Purple Summers was taken aback by what Atra Blanc said.
Wasnโt that python hers? What does this have to do with Laura Summers?
Purple Summers had a hunch that something was not quite rightโฆ
Forcing a smile, she tested the waters, โIs that so?โฆ Look at my memory, I can hardly recall. I thought Cleo was my brotherโs pet.โ
โIt must be hard for you to remember since it was a few years ago. In future, if Laura Summers were to give you anything, do not accept it, that child is not good-hearted.โ
Atra Blanc said casually, not intending to delve into it any further, picked up the already cold breakfast from the table, and said, โI will go heat this up, it will be done in a jiffy, wait here.โ
Although Purple Summers still couldnโt comprehend what happened to the snake, just listening to Atra Blancโs โa few years agoโ, was enough to confirm that the bastard, Alexander Summers was hoodwinking her!
โThis rascal! How dare he insinuate her?!! Claiming the snake was a pet she moved in to crown before she was hospitalized, in fact, he had been keeping it for years?!
He must have grown suspicious!
Damn it! Her cover was barely two days old, was it going to be blown so soon?!
Purple Summers bit her lip, decisively followed Atra Blanc to the kitchen, and prodded again, โMother, can you tell me, was that snake really given by Laura Summers? Why would she give me thatโฆโ
Atra Blanc turned her head looking at her in bewilderment, โYou really donโt remember anything?โ
Pressing her luck, Purple Summers replied, โI remember just bits and piecesโฆ can you kindly recall it for me?โ
โThereโs not much to tellโฆโ Atra Blanc frowned, unwilling to revisit the past, โLaura Summers got that snake from somewhere to prank you. It scared you into fainting. Afraid of being reprimanded by the adults afterward, she claimed it was a gift for you.โ freewe(b)novel.com
She spoke with a gradually pained and bitter expression, โIndeed it was a docile pet snake, butโฆ who would dare to keep that kind of thing at home? Throwing it away would seem pitiful, as it was a life after all. Also afraid that it would cause another ruckus with the Summers Family, your brother ended up keeping it in the end..โ
