Chapter 293: Suffering

Alexander Summers nodded gently, “And she has already registered to marry him abroad, keeping it a secret from everyone, not just making it public.”

Purple was puzzled. Would Alexander allow his fiancee to marry someone else abroad?

Did he not care? …Not even a little bit?

If so, then what he said must be true – that his relationship with his fiancee was merely a partnership.

Purple felt somewhat relieved.

Getting involved in a relationship had made her feel ashamed. If she were to hurt someone else’s feelings, Purple would feel utterly cheap and degraded.

But if Alexander’s fiancee was indeed already married, then she hadn’t hurt anyone’s emotions. She hadn’t acted immorally and didn’t need to feel guilty.

“Purple, is that why you were upset?” Alexander gently stroked her thick black hair, “Do you care if I’m with another woman?”

Purple lowered her gaze and replied softly, “What I care about is…because of you, I have become an immoral, shameless woman…”

“You’re not immoral, I’ve been clinging to you. My Purple is pure and noble, and the immoral one is me,” Alexander held her in his arms and patted her back to comfort her.

Purple exhaled softly and murmured, “The fact remains that you have a marriage contract, and although I may not have intended it, I have interfered in your relationship…”

“The reason we got engaged in the first place was to silence the gossiping relatives of the Howard family. Once everything settles down, this relationship will naturally dissolve,” Alexander explained to her. After a moment of contemplation, he thought that Purple might be struggling with this issue because she cared about social status.

Social status wasn’t something he couldn’t afford.

“If you care about these things, we can make our relationship public, get engaged, or even get married directly. We can go abroad – Japan and Korea, England and France, Italy, and even Brazil. In these countries, you can get married as long as you’re 16,” he said.

Purple laughed mockingly, “Incestuous siblings? What’s so respectable about that going public?”

Alexander held her tightly in his arms and kissed her fiercely, “You’re the one who minds sneaking around, and you’re the one who minds not being respectable enough, Purple. You’re too mischievous.”

After kissing her, he asked again, “Purple, do you care about me, don’t you?”

Purple’s eyes were icy cold, and she emotionlessly replied, “I don’t care! I wish you’d disappear, vanish from my sight completely!”

Alexander remained silent for a while before whispering tender words of love, “You are mine, in this life and the next. I will never let go.”

Purple’s eyelashes trembled, and she blinked, tears rolling down her face. Her dried-up eyes were once again filled with tears, streaming down her cheeks.

Alexander used a tissue to wipe away her tears, and the tears soaked through the tissue in his hand.

He took out a new tissue, wiped away the tears, and then held Purple in his arms, gently stroking her back, comforting her silently, but refusing to utter a single word of compromise.

This made Purple even more desperate.

When she cried, Alexander would usually feel sorry for her, coax her, and indulge her, but this time, he remained indifferent to her tears.

He wouldn’t let her go!

Purple felt so unlucky. She could have studied and learned like a normal person, had a normal romance, married, and raised children, but why did she have to meet Alexander? Forced into this ambiguous relationship, constantly fearing being discovered, and facing the torment of her conscience and morality!

Why did she have to endure this pain?!

Purple cried for a long time and fell asleep on the sofa.

Alexander placed his coat over Purple and walked outside. Zack Wallace was waiting at the door and said with a complicated expression, “Sir, you might as well tell Miss Purple the truth…”
