Chapter 516: Being a Bridesmaid_1
Alexander Sumrs told Purple Sumrs that the engagent was not only to consolidate his own power but also to assure Lily Howard.
The Howard family was like a small dynasty, and Lily was the princess. A princess is usually fragile, without real power, and can be married off at any mont, to be exploited by others. Especially in the Howard family, with an abundance of princes and princesses, they were not highly valued. If Lily, as a princess, wanted to live a life of noble splendor, she needed to cooperate with Alexander Sumrs.
Alexander was like a regent.
The Howard family respected him, feared him, submitted to his authority, and at the sa ti deeply worried, concerned that their small dynasty might one day have a change of regi.
Therefore, Alexander and Lily made such an absurd move.
Alexander had reached his current position due to a mix of many reasons, including Damian Howard’s favor, his own ambition, and the pressures and forcings from various parties… He had been through so much darkness and his unique upbringing had shaped his personality; even if Purple Sumrs really was a warm sun, she couldn’t illuminate his entire heart.
To try to change a man with love alone is a delusion.
Purple Sumrs felt that, instead of being a warm sun, she would rather be a rope, holding back Alexander, preventing him from falling too deep into that dark abyss.
…
Purple Sumrs neither agreed nor disagreed with Alexander and Lily’s plan.
Making sacrifices for love seems incredibly romantic and beautiful, and she was not immune to such thinking. However, if she were to accept this engagent with joy and cheer for love’s sake, she would feel cheap and lowly.
So Purple Sumrs maintained her silence.
The date for the engagent reception was quickly set for the first of next month.
——April Fool’s Day, a day full of jokes and cody.
In fact, the date felt a bit rushed, with less than two weeks’ ti left. Purple Sumrs inwardly complained: Perhaps it was because the two main characters of the engagent didn’t take the matter seriously.
It was, after all, just a show put on for the rest of the Howard family.
Purple Sumrs thought the matter would have nothing to do with her, letting Alexander and Lily do as they pleased. Unexpectedly, the next day after school, she saw Lily Howard waiting for her at the school gate.
“Roy Howard is too stingy to give your phone number,” Lily Howard said with a helpless shrug, “so I had no choice but to wait for you here.”
Purple Sumrs was surprised and wanted to ask Lily Howard how she knew that she was studying at Grey, but then she rembered that during their last encounter, she was wearing Grey’s school uniform…
“What do you need from ?” Purple Sumrs asked, puzzled, glancing at the students nearby.
Many female students were looking at Lily Howard.
Lily Howard was handso.
A handso man is not necessarily handso, but a handso man is definitely very handso.
Lily Howard leaned against a white sports car, dressed in a leather jacket and leather pants, with dium-length black hair, a cigarette held between two fingers, exuding an air of rakish elegance while smoking.
Not only was she handso, but she also had a bit of a bad and wicked air about her.
For a woman… especially for sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, this was an extrely lethal charm.
“Sarah insists on being my bridesmaid,” Lily Howard smiled, “but her Huaya Language isn’t very good. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to take care of her when there are many guests, so I want to ask you to be my bridesmaid to look after her as well.”
An engagent, after all, is not a wedding, and it’s unusual to require bridesmaids.
And… being Lily Howard’s bridesmaid?
Purple Sumrs found it hard to picture the scene.
After hesitating for a mont, Lily Howard smiled and said again, “Please, Ms. Sumrs.”
Purple Sumrs apologetically said, “But I don’t speak French…”
If even communication was an issue, how could she take care of soone else?
“It doesn’t matter, as long as you speak slowly without complex phrases, Sarah can understand,” Lily Howard pleaded again, “Here, apart from and Roy Howard, she only knows you, Ms. Sumrs. Please, help out.”
