Chapter 512: I Am Lily Howard (Pig-Riding Tree Climbing Reward Boost)_1
“I…” Purple Sumrs’s face turned slightly red as she looked down and said softly, “I might be a little carsick.”
Alexander Sumrs told the driver in front to drive more steadily.
Feeling embarrassed, Purple Sumrs hurriedly said, “Don’t trouble him; it’s a traffic jam now, with starts and stops—inevitable…”
Besides, she wasn’t really carsick.
…
It was the evening rush hour, a ti when school lets out and people leave work. Even soone of Damian Howard’s prestigious status was stuck in traffic just like everyone else.
However, Alexander wasn’t in a hurry, and Purple Sumrs was even less so. Both sat quietly in the car, lost in their thoughts, and neither spoke a word.
Purple Sumrs had assud they would go to a restaurant, but instead, the car took them directly to Alexander’s estate castle on the outskirts of the city.
The estate was magnificent, exuding a Renaissance beauty; it was the first gift Alexander received after taking the position of family head. Up until now, he was the only one with the privilege of living there.
Now, however, his fiancée had moved in.
Wasn’t it normal… for Master Xander’s fiancée to live here, if not here, then where?
Suppressing the strange thoughts in her heart, Purple Sumrs got out of the car with Alexander and walked through the grand entrance…
The estate’s servants had already received the news. They stood on either side of the bluestone brick path outside the main gate, bowing respectfully to welco the estate’s owner, casting an air of decadent nobility upon any arrivals.
Upon entering, a servant led the couple toward the dining hall.
Before they got there, Purple Sumrs could hear muffled voices from the dining hall. Sensitive, she wondered if Alexander’s fiancée was talking about her at this mont?
When they entered the dining hall, she saw a young man and woman seated on one side of the table.
The man had fair skin and was handsoly carefree, while the woman was a mixed-race girl with wavy chestnut hair hanging all the way down to her waist. Her long, thick eyelashes fluttered like tiny fans, her delicate lips were redder than rose petals, and her clear, lucent blue eyes were so beautiful—she looked not of this world, a perfect doll!
She was stunningly beautiful!
Purple Sumrs felt deeply struck.
She had never seen such a beautiful and cute girl before, a hundred tis more beautiful than any model or star!
Rembering how Alexander would nonchalantly call her lazy pig, stupid pig every day… Ha, no wonder. Compared to the girl before her, wasn’t she just like a pig…
The mixed-race girl’s gaze turned sharp as she looked at Purple Sumrs, clearly showing enmity.
Purple Sumrs’s heart sank—see, here it ca… here it ca… Alexander had said Lily Howard was already married, but perhaps the marriage was just a sham?
It wasn’t hard to guess a little; with Lily’s seemingly innocent deanor, she must have been protected by her brother, Damian Howard, from a young age. After Damian’s mishap, Alexander took the brother’s place, caring for and protecting Lily—over ti, emotions could develop, what was so impossible about that?
The servants pulled out high-backed chairs for both of them, and Purple Sumrs and Alexander took their seats.
Across the table, the handso man said sothing to the mixed-race girl in French, then, looking over at Alexander and Purple Sumrs, he stood up with a smile and reached out his right hand, “This lovely young lady must be the one our Master Xander can’t stop thinking about, right?”
Purple Sumrs’s cheeks turned pink as she uncomfortably got up, about to shake his hand, but Alexander suddenly pulled her back down to sit.
Alexander said with a cold face, “A simple introduction will do, no need for handshakes.”
The man laughed helplessly, “You’re too possessive!”
Then, looking at Purple Sumrs, he introduced himself, “Nice to et you, I am Damian Howard, and this is my wife Sarah. We will be staying here for a while. Ms. Sumrs, I hope we can get along well.”
Purple Sumrs stared with widened eyes, in disbelief.
Damian Howard… how could he be a man???
