Chapter 897: Chapter 897 The Shaless Swindler_1 Chapter 897: Chapter 897 The Shaless Swindler_1 The yacht docked at a scenic spot called Bamboo Slope, where the bamboo forests on both banks were as magnificent as the ocean, endless in sight. The dock was crowded with tourists, bustling with noise. Various bamboo crafts were sold, and the locality also offered a delicacy made from bamboo shoot fibers, which enticed visitors to try a taste.
Purple Sumrs could see the outside scenery through the round window.
The lush bamboo couldn’t soothe her inner anxiety. She wasn’t Alexander Sumrs; she couldn’t bring herself to be rough towards the delicate and frail Atra Blanc. She always aid to minimize the harm.
“What if we do this…” Purple Sumrs suggested to Alexander Sumrs, “We could say she’s our mom’s sister, that Clyde Sumrs has sothing urgent to take care of and can’t look after her. We’ll coax her back ho first, and we’ll deal with the rest later.”
At least that would save face for the ti being.
Alexander Sumrs retorted, “How is that different from lying to her?”
“But how can I possibly say it now?” Purple Sumrs was trendously frustrated, “Mom won’t be able to handle it! She can’t take this kind of shock!”
Purple Sumrs sighed. “Damn it, this Clyde Sumrs!”
If it weren’t for Clyde Sumrs, Atra Blanc’s life would still be peaceful; if it weren’t for Clyde Sumrs, Purple Sumrs wouldn’t be caught in a dilemma.
All because of Clyde Sumrs!
“We could stage an accident on the yacht, such as a false fire alarm. In the chaos, we take her away,” Alexander said. “If she asks about Clyde, just say we got separated, then take her to the hospital for treatnt. With ti, she’ll understand.”
This way, they could explain Clyde’s disappearance and naturally look after Atra Blanc without, strictly speaking… lying.
Purple Sumrs had to admit that Alexander’s mind was more agile than hers; he always found a way.
Relieved, Purple Sumrs said, “Alright, I’ll talk to Clyde at 12 o’clock, get him to cooperate with our plan. He promised he wouldn’t stand in our way anymore…”
Alexander raised his eyebrows slightly, “Why at 12 o’clock?”
Purple Sumrs replied, “Clyde wants to decide and co to see him at 12…”
After a mont of silence, Alexander said, “Purple, the yacht sets sail at 12 o’clock.”
Purple Sumrs’s face turned a shade paler.
Her thoughts solidified like cent, then shattered inch by inch! She was completely flustered!
Without waiting to speak, Purple Sumrs suddenly charged out of the room and headed to Clyde’s and Atra Blanc’s room, knocking incessantly on the door!
Alexander followed her out.
The noise attracted the attention of the neighboring guests, who opened their doors to check; the tour guide was also there.
“There’s nobody inside. Mr. Sumrs and his wife just left the group,” the tour guide said.
Purple Sumrs’s complexion turned from pale to livid!
Clyde Sumrs had deceived her!
The shaless charlatan! He said to decide and et at 12; it was just a delaying tactic!
Clyde Sumrs knew well that Purple Sumrs planned to take Atra Blanc away, so he preempted by appearing willing to let go. But actually, he was just lowering Purple Sumrs’s guard. While she was struggling with what to do, he had already absconded with Atra Blanc!
By the ti Purple Sumrs went to find Clyde as arranged—the yacht would have sailed at 12, unable to return to the dock. Even if she wanted to pursue them, she couldn’t!
It wasn’t that Purple Sumrs was foolish; Clyde Sumrs was just too cunning!
No upright person would anticipate such trickery.
Alexander and Purple Sumrs grabbed their luggage and rushed off the ship.
It wasn’t just their yacht at the dock—there were other sightseeing boats too, so the shore was noisy and congested, swarming with vendors and tourists interspersed throughout.
If Clyde truly had fled, he would likely head straight for the nearby transit routes. Long-distance buses were a good option, but with plenty of cash on hand, renting a car would make his getaway even more convenient.
Alexander and Purple Sumrs caught a taxi and hurried to the largest nearby transportation hub.
