Purple Sumrs’s expression stiffened slightly.
She hadn’t expected…
When she first heard the na Emilia O’Connor, she felt sowhat unfamiliar with it. It was only after Nathaniel Sumrs reminded her that she recalled Emilia O’Connor was Purple Sumrs’s once psychiatrist.
She had seen the dical diagnosis certificates, and every page bore Emilia O’Connor’s signature.
…But the problem was, just from that flamboyant signature, she couldn’t tell Emilia O’Connor was a woman!
Including that obviously masculine na, it was hard for anyone to associate it with a woman!
Did Nathaniel Sumrs ntion those things today offhandedly, or was it intentional?… Was he testing her?!
Purple Sumrs felt a bit of turmoil inside and went upstairs to her room, suppressing her emotions.
Being suspected was indeed not good news, and it greatly affected her recent good mood.
Purple Sumrs sat alone on the edge of the bed, silently contemplating.
She was thinking of counterasures, and also what Nathaniel Sumrs might do next.
After thinking for a long ti, she reached a bizarre conclusion: Nathaniel Sumrs can’t do anything to her.
He surely couldn’t bring a taoist priest to the house, splash dog blood on her head, and paste talismans, could he?
Not to ntion the terrifying Alexander Sumrs would never agree, even the ek Atra Blanc would definitely protect her with her life at stake.
Moreover, people’s talk could be dreadful. If the exorcism beca known, the Sumrs Family would certainly beco the laughingstock of high society, the low-grade gossip after als.
So, would he try to drive her out of the Sumrs Family?
That didn’t matter… after all, the person she was dealing with now was Jade Carlson, and Jade’s ties with the Sumrs Family were getting less and less. Moving away from here actually wouldn’t affect her much.
After much deliberation and hypothesizing various possibilities, Purple Sumrs’s heart gradually cald down.
She truly didn’t need to fear Nathaniel Sumrs.
Purple Sumrs smirked to herself, feeling relaxed again.
However, should she tell Alexander Sumrs about this? Thinking of that man, her feelings beca complex again.
Purple Sumrs could almost imagine his reaction, Alexander Sumrs would surely say, “Then kill him, and be done with it.”
So simple and crude.
In the past, the thought of his lawless arrogance filled her with both fear and loathing, but now… perhaps because her mindset had changed, she found it amusing and almost wanted to laugh.
What an annoying fellow.
Purple Sumrs curled her legs up, tilting her head as she wondered where he might be now, feeling an odd emotion inside, like a swallowtail skimming the surface of a lake, causing ripples that spread out in circles…
This was probably what longing felt like.
There was a bit of sweetness in her heart, and a touch of sentintality. She was amazed by how unpredictable life was; she hadn’t expected that in the end, she would fall into his hands.
Although she was moved by him, his temper was really annoying. If only he could change a bit… Not be so overbearing, not be so perverse, and preferably, less of that sort of thing… How could a family head always act like a rogue?
But then… if he really changed, would he still be Alexander Sumrs?
She was like a young girl with her first crush, her thoughts flitting about wildly, imagining Alexander Sumrs’s bad side, his good side, and also wondering why he kept it hidden, ntioning not a word.
It didn’t make sense to her.
But… it was better kept secret. Otherwise, she would feel embarrassed. The original sibling relationship was embarrassing enough, and now with the addition of an aunt-nephew layer, it was really confusing.
Was Alexander Sumrs considering this, which is why he didn’t disclose the truth?
She sat on the bed, lost in thought, when suddenly the door was opened by Alexander Sumrs.
In his hands, he held a bouquet of white roses, each bloom flaunting its luxurious beauty—pure and elegant, with snow-white petals layered upon one another, adorned with glistening droplets of water, exuding a rich fragrance.
