Alexander Summers spoke, and the two women in the house suddenly had a mainstay.

Purple Summers’ smart brain only works well in investigations, but how can she save a python? She was at a loss.

The siblings worked together to move Cleo into the back compartment, Tiny, perhaps out of curiosity, followed them into the car, while Atra Blanc stayed at home to clean the smelly breeding tank.

Before getting in the car, Alexander pinched Purple’s tense little face and teased, “Look how much your mother-in-law loves you, fearing that you will be wronged.”

Purple, who was worrying about Cleo, couldn’t help but be teased by him, and said angrily, “She’s my mom!”

“Heh, it’s all the same,” Alexander didn’t care and went to the driver’s seat.

As soon as the car got on the road, it ran into a traffic jam.

Purple became more anxious, frequently looking back at Cleo, fearing that it would die on the way.

“Such a big python, if it dies, it would be quite troublesome,” Alexander said in front, as if talking to himself, “…even if we dig a hole to bury it, we’ll have to dig a big one, to make enough space.”

Purple felt that every word was extra piercing!

Was this man made of iron? Cleo was also his pet, and yet he was making cold remarks!

Alexander continued, “After raising it for so many years, it’s been fine. I didn’t expect that it would die in less than half a year after changing to a new home. Pythons should have a long life…”

Purple bit her lip, feeling more guilty.

Looking back, it seemed that she hadn’t cleaned the breeding tank since she moved up to second grade.

And Tiny always liked to throw trash in there. Although she had scolded him a few times, she had always let him do as he pleases afterward.

Cleo might have become like this because the environment in the breeding tank was bad, bacteria infected, or even parasites grew.

Although pythons look scary, they are still flesh and blood creatures. They can feel pain and get sick. The problem is that snakes can’t cry out, and no matter how uncomfortable they are, they can only endure it silently.

The more Purple thought about it, the more sad she became, and unwittingly her eyes turned red.

Just like Alexander said, Cleo was still so young, and if it wasn’t for her, maybe it could still live for decades…

“Don’t be sad. If this snake dies, big brother will buy you another one.”

Alexander’s words not only failed to comfort her but pierced her heart even more. Purple couldn’t help it, and tears finally fell.

She didn’t like to keep pets.

She really couldn’t stand parting with them.

At that moment, Purple’s phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Iris Maple.

In gratitude for her help to win the lawsuit, Iris booked a banquet at the Phoenix Tower to thank Purple, Marcel Jefferson, and everyone else who helped with the investigation.

But how could Purple have the mood to eat now?

She kindly rejected the invitation.

After a while, Marcel called, probably because he heard that Purple wasn’t going, so he asked specifically.

“You guys go, don’t worry about me,” Purple’s voice was bleak and devoid of energy, “And don’t mention me, just remind Iris about the favor she promised.”

Marcel knew the situation well and agreed repeatedly.

Highlighting a sixteen-year-old girl too much would not bring any benefits, and it would only harm her.

Moreover, Purple’s goal in solving cases was not for the limelight.

When Alexander drove to the veterinary clinic, he called the doctor to help carry the spotted python.

The huge spotted python was moved out of the car, attracting a lot of curious eyes. The animals in the veterinary clinic also looked over, with a few small dogs whimpering fearfully.

Seeing these small animals jumping around happily and Cleo barely holding on, Purple felt even sadder, as if she had done something terrible.

Entering the treatment room, Cleo was placed on the medical table, and the doctor and Alexander were talking.

“How long has it been like this?”

“Three to five days, I guess.”

“It might be due to insufficient humidity. Everyone’s been using heaters recently, which makes the environment too dry and affects snakes as well,” the doctor said indifferently. “It’s no big deal. Just put a few more pots of water at home.”
