Chapter 584: Why Engage (Rewarded and added by You Hu Sui Sui)_1

Returning to the Sumrs Residence, just a short walk in, Purple Sumrs encountered Nathaniel Sumrs by the fountain in the front courtyard.

She didn’t want to deal with him, but Nathaniel had sothing to say.

“Isn’t that Allen Rivera?” Nathaniel said, “I rember, he used to be your assistant. It seems you’ve really lived it up in your second go, Aria Jackson, Allen Rivera… you’ve found them all again. Are you planning to walk the path of a prosecutor once more?”

His face bore no expression, and his tone was indifferent. Yet for so reason, Purple found it grating to the ear.

Nathaniel’s mouth curled into a smile, “You seem to want to bring back all the people and things from the past, except for , right? Ha… what kind of love potion has Alexander Sumrs given you?”

Purple pursed her lips tightly and walked past him with an air of indifference.

She really didn’t want to discuss these matters with Nathaniel. The end result would just be a big argunt with both sides looking repulsive. What would be the point?

“Do you know why I got engaged to Jade Carlson?” Nathaniel suddenly raised his voice to ask.

Purple’s steps faltered, but she did not turn back.

She took a slow breath to calm herself, her voice tranquil as still water, “Why you got engaged is of no interest to , but I suppose it’s not hard to guess. The initial secret rendezvous must have been unsatisfying, and now that the wife is dead, isn’t it the perfect ti to make room for a new love?”

“I did it to investigate the cause of your death!” Nathaniel said.

Purple didn’t respond and walked away.

Nathaniel called out unwillingly from behind her, “One day you will understand! I didn’t harm you!”

Purple felt that Nathaniel simply didn’t understand.

…Perhaps it wasn’t that he didn’t understand, but that he was deliberately avoiding a truth, which was, she and he had parted ways not because she suspected Nathaniel of killing her, but because, she didn’t love him.

Love is a strange thing.

When you don’t love soone, you find so much to pick apart, from houses to cars to money. You have countless demands from family background to appearance, from career to future planning, even to hobbies and preferences.

But once you fall in love, there’s just utter lack of dignity, no principles, complete compromise! Even if the other person stabs you, you will find excuses for them, thinking they must have had a compelling reason.

Purple now felt nothing but such nitpicking towards Nathaniel.

This kind of nitpicking didn’t co from her being an or stingy; it was because she had given all her love and tolerance to Alexander Sumrs, and that was why she couldn’t bear Nathaniel.

She could find no reason or standing for tolerance.

Nathaniel watched Purple gradually walk away, the gloom in his eyes stacking up, brimming with an impending storm.

He silently returned to the house and went to his study.

Jade Carlson was cleaning inside.

Lately, she seed to have undergone a drastic change in temperant, becoming a hundred tis more gentle and considerate than before, servile to an abject extent.

She kneeled on the ground, scrubbing the floor ticulously. The furniture and chairs were polished to a shine, looking renewed.

Even the crystal ashtray on the table was immaculately clean and sparkling.

“You don’t need to do this, ask the servants to take care of it next ti,” Nathaniel said coldly as he walked in, his footsteps leaving prints of varying depth on the freshly cleaned floor.

Jade positioned herself very low, speaking carefully, “I made such grave mistakes before; I want to do so things… to make peace with myself.”

Her deanor was pitiable, the kind that could easily evoke a man’s compassion.

Nathaniel gave her a cold look for a while, said nothing, his brow furrowed with irritation. He casually took a cigarette from the pack.

Jade picked up the lighter from the table and lit it for him. The pale orange fla flickered among the tobacco, slowly kindling a thin wisp of smoke that swirled endlessly.

At that mont, Nathaniel took out another cigarette, put it in Jade’s mouth, and then lit it with from the one in his own mouth.

Jade held the cigarette in her mouth, stunned.

Nathaniel exhaled a puff of smoke towards her and said indifferently, “Jade, keep company for a while.”
