Chapter 1200: Chapter 1200: Daughter
Purple Sumrs was stunned for a while, then gently shook her head: “No.”
So things won’t be forgotten just because Nathaniel Sumrs is dead.
It’s hard to say forgiveness easily, but also hard to hold a grudge against a dead person. Purple didn’t know what kind of mood or attitude she should have to et him again.
It’s best to treat his death as the end of everything.
An imperfect ending, at best.
…
A few days later, Nathaniel Sumrs’ body was transported to Clearwater City, where the burial was arranged solely by Alexander Sumrs.
Nathaniel Sumrs left behind a notorious criminal record with the police. Though he wasn’t linked to the rose serial case, there was conclusive evidence of his kidnapping of Purple Sumrs, and the police also found his collusion with drug dealers. Thus, the funeral was sparsely attended.
After the funeral, Alexander Sumrs returned to Kingsley. He did not disclose a single detail of the funeral to Purple Sumrs.
Purple quietly recuperated at ho.
Spending more ti with the children, she gradually beca adept at taking care of them. Her hands-on effort paid off, and the two children grew increasingly attached to her, bringing them closer to their inattentive father, Alexander.
A harmonious and warm family life can heal wounds.
Purple’s mood gradually stabilized, and while playing with the children, she seed to forget all her worries.
March arrived, and it was ti for school to start.
In the final sester of her professional training, Purple interned at a law firm as a lawyer.
Working from nine to five, the ti spent with her children significantly reduced, leading to an inevitable sense of concern and more uncertainty about the future.
At the end of the sester, the opinions given by several tutors were indeed as Victoria Morrison had said, suggesting she pursue a career as a lawyer.
With Purple’s qualifications, pursuing the role of a prosecutor wasn’t unfeasible, but considering the high-intensity work environnt and her young children at ho, she ultimately didn’t cling to her past dream.
She used to think that a woman giving up her career for her family and children was a kind of sorrow.
Now she had a different understanding.
The desire to beco a prosecutor could be fulfilled at any ti, but the childhood of her children only lasts for a few short years.
She didn’t want her children’s lives to center solely around grandparents and servants. Children need their parents.
After graduating, Purple took a position at Prominence Law Firm, officially becoming a lawyer.
For common cases, Marcel Jefferson wouldn’t disturb her, giving her enough freedom in her schedule. If Purple still wanted to pursue a career as a prosecutor in the future, she could always take the civil service examination.
As her twin sons neared their first birthday, Purple enthusiastically prepared for their birthday party but unexpectedly fainted at ho.
The whole family was startled and hastily sent her to the hospital, only to find out Purple was pregnant again.
Alexander Sumrs was imnsely pleased, saying that this ti it must be a daughter.
In June of the following year, under a scorching sun, Alexander got his wish—Purple gave birth to a baby girl.
Purple opened her blouse and fed her baby the first sip of milk, and unexpectedly, tears suddenly fell, unstoppable.
Atra Blanc was terribly anxious, “You can’t cry during the puerperium, it will hurt your eyes! Don’t cry…”
She grabbed tissues to wipe Purple’s tears, but they wouldn’t stop.
Purple held her baby, her vision blurred, and looked up at Alexander: “I want to see him.”
She didn’t ntion the na, but Alexander knew who she wanted to see.
Alexander was silent for a mont, then nodded slightly: “After your puerperium.”
This was an agreent.
…
In the scorching heat of July, the sky was a crystal-clear blue, and the endless cicadas’ cries filled the air.
It was hardly a season suitable for traveling.
Purple Sumrs and Alexander Sumrs brought their children back to Clearwater City, to Nathaniel Sumrs’ grave.
