Chapter 592: 592: Sour and Rotten (Reward Plus Update from Hua Anren Mo)
“What are you talking about?” Purple Summers was speechless. She just wanted to share some gossip with Alexander Summers, who knew it would bring unjust scolding upon the innocent language teacher.
Although she was somewhat unwilling…
But then again, chasing after love is everyone’s freedom, isn’t it? Atra Blanc seemed virtuous and beautiful, and it wasn’t strange that she attracted admirers. It was just normal pursuit, and they weren’t doing anything sleazy. If you didn’t like them, you could just reject them nicely, no need to curse at them as soon as you opened your mouth.
And moreover…
Purple Summers always felt that, at over forty, Atra Blanc still had a long life ahead of her. Was she supposed to just spend it looking after her children? It seemed a bit of a pity…
Such a lovely woman, she gave the first half of her love life to a no-good old man, should she spend the rest of her life guarding the memories of that no-good old man?
“Actually, I think our language teacher isn’t too bad…” Purple Summers seriously analyzed to Alexander Summers, “He’s a person who values spiritual communication, prefers quality over quantity, has never married, holds a stable job, doesn’t smoke or drink, loves reading and musicals, and is gentle and refined… His conditions are quite suitable.”
“You’re talking nonsense.” Alexander Summers was blunt, “You can tell right from the start that our mom can have spiritual communication with him? It’s clearly a case of love at first sight!”
Purple Summers said angrily, “Not everyone is like you, okay?”
After the scolding, she reflected on it and couldn’t help but laugh to herself, asking, “Are you jealous? Oh dear, children shouldn’t be so narrow-minded and selfish. Mom has spent over twenty years raising you to adulthood. It’s time to let her pursue her own happiness…”
“Purple Summers, are you itching for a beating?” Alexander Summers spoke on the other end of the phone, “Asking for a spanking, are you?”
Purple Summers laughed to herself, not paying him any attention.
She used to be quite afraid of Alexander Summers, but now, it was clear he had no intimidating power over her anymore.
Alexander Summers then said, “It’s Friday today, no school tomorrow, come spend the weekend with me at the estate.”
Purple Summers deliberately spoke in a sing-song voice to tease him, “Are you seeking spiritual communication, or is it love at first sight?”
“Both are required,” Alexander Summers shamelessly declared.
Purple Summers cursed him inwardly for being shameless.
However, she hadn’t seen him for several days and truth be told, she did miss him.
Purple Summers hesitated and glanced at Atra Blanc ahead, sighing, “I have to lie to Mom again…”
Each time she stayed out overnight, she had to lie to Atra Blanc. She felt very guilty about it.
“It’s not really lying. Just say you’re coming to the company to see me and help me out with something,” Alexander Summers paused, then added, “Sarah is pregnant, and Lily Howard wants to celebrate. You know, they don’t have many real friends here in the country. It’s a good opportunity for you to come over and join us.”
Purple Summers was stunned.
She remembered Alexander Summers saying that once Sarah got pregnant, Lily Howard would take her back to France to have the baby.
She hadn’t expected Sarah to get pregnant so easily…
Distracted by these thoughts, Purple Summers wasn’t able to focus on house-hunting. Time nearly slipped away to the start of classes, and Atra Blanc still hesitated, unable to make a decision.
“You go back to school with the teacher for classes,” Atra Blanc said, “As for the house… I’ll ask your brother’s opinion later.”
“It should be treated carefully since buying a house is a big deal,” Mr. Angelo was enthusiastic. “If you have any requirements for the house, you can tell me. I live right here, and I’m familiar with several Communities nearby. It’s no trouble to keep an eye out for you regularly.”
“That would be too much trouble for you…” Atra Blanc said politely.
“No trouble at all. I’m not busy usually,” Mr. Angelo said.
Purple Summers covertly glanced at the language teacher, full of silent mockery: We are about to have final exams, okay?
After Atra Blanc left, Purple Summers returned to school with the teacher.
On the way, she overheard the language teacher murmuring, “There’s a beauty, fair and graceful. Met by chance, fitting my desires…”
Purple Summers felt chills down her spine.
Suddenly, she wholeheartedly agreed with Alexander Summers’ earlier comment: So irritatingly pretentious indeed…
