Chapter 426: Chapter 427 Just Want Alexander
Sumrsl
Even if his collaboration with that woman was purely professional, even if it was just a tactical move, Purple Sumrs still felt uncomfortable deep down.
She was well aware that precisely because their relationship lacked this open and dignified respectability, it was like a haze that couldn’t be dispersed, unable to endure the light.
Purple Sumrs sighed softly in her heart.
Joy was mingled with lancholy.
After the New Year, they stayed on the island for another seven or eight days, almost forgetting about the rest of the world.
As February rolled in, Dylan Sumrs called, urging them to co ho and attend the banquet.
The wealthy of Clearwater City had a trend of hosting New Year banquets.
From January to the last day of February, these two months were filled with big and small parties hosted by respectable families, commonly known as Spring Banquets.
This was an important aspect of social interactions in high society every year and was particularly beloved by the ladies and daughters of nobility.
Though the Sumrs Family was fading, they couldn’t afford to lose face; the Spring Banquet was a must.
Dylan Sumrs specially instructed Purple Sumrs, “If you have close classmates, you can invite them over to the house.”
Purple Sumrs studied at Grey, and naturally, her classmates were wealthy and noble, so having one more guest would add luster to the Sumrs Family.
After so thought, Purple Sumrs sent ssages to Zara Jason and Jane McCain, inviting them to her house on that day.
Alexander Sumrs dropped her and Atra Blanc back in Clearwater, but he himself did not return, claiming that the company had many matters piled up, waiting for him to handle.
That Alexander Sumrs had been able to take off such a long ti to celebrate New Year with her and Atra Blanc was already quite rare.
Atra Blanc reminded him to look after his health while working.
But Purple Sumrs’s feelings were complicated. Alexander’s unique status ant it was difficult for him to be devoted to both families; when he was Master Xander, it seed as if Alexander Sumrs did not exist in this world…
And she, she only wanted Alexander Sumrs.
Returning from the warm and enthusiastic Pearlpoint City to the bone-chilling cold of Clearwater City, Purple Sumrs found it hard to adapt.
She would curl up in her blankets every day, eating and drinking, and as a result, she gained a few pounds. She had been rather thin, so a little added weight made her look better, her cheeks fair and rosy, her deanor cute and adorably naive.
Jane McCain called her, sharing amusing stories from the annual star banquet.
“It’s such a pity you weren’t there! Nearly all top dostic stars were present, and the award presenters were all heavyweights. Guess who got the best actress award this year?”
Purple Sumrs wasn’t a fan of celebrities, and she didn’t know much about the entertainnt industry, so she casually asked, “Who?”
Jane McCain ntioned a na, unknown to Purple Sumrs, who languidly responded with an “Oh.”
“Ah, you’re too indifferent!” Jane McCain protested.
Purple Sumrs couldn’t help but laugh: “I really don’t recognize any of them.”
Jane McCain continued, “Young Master Graves even asked about you specifically, Purple, I think he might be interested in you.”
“Young Master Graves?” Purple Sumrs was puzzled, “What did he ask about ?”
“He asked why you didn’t co,” replied Jane McCain, “I told him you went to an island for the New Year, so you couldn’t attend the grand banquet, but to have Young Master Graves specifically bring you up, Purple, you’re quite sothing! Oh right, which island did you go to? Was it fun?”
As the conversation shifted to the island trip, Purple Sumrs was happy to share, picking out so funny incidents involving Cleo and Tiny to tell Jane McCain. Before they knew it, the topic had moved on to the Sumrs Family’s Spring Banquet.
“You’ll see when you co. Cleo might look scary, but he’s so many tis more well-behaved than Tiny,” said Purple Sumrs. “Sotis when I’m lying on the couch and I can’t reach the remote, Cleo can hook it over for .”
“Really? That amazing?!”
Purple Sumrs laughed, “Wait, I’ll record a little video for you.”
As she got up from bed, she inadvertently caught sight of the villa opposite her window, where Nathaniel Sumrs stood by the window, gazing in her direction..
