Translator: 549690339
Atra Blanc was worried about her daughter just being discharged from the hospital, so as soon as they got back to the small villa, she told Purple Summers to go to her room to rest.
As Purple lay on the soft pink-white bed, she had no intention of sleeping.
The intimate image of Nathaniel Summers and Jade Carlson floated in her mind, making her inevitably agitated for a moment.
She decided to sit up and try to clear her mind.
— Jade Carlson was an accident.
The Prosecutor’s Office was mostly populated with men, and as one of her assistants, she was more willing to entrust certain private matters to Jade because they were both women. Sometimes she would have Jade go to her home to retrieve forgotten documents, or travel long distances to investigate cases while helping with packing.
Jade Carlson had many opportunities to interact with Nathaniel Summers.
But she hadn’t expected that their “familiarity” would come to this point, and that even the other members of the Summers Family, turned a blind eye to the intimacy between the two of them, as if they were already used to it!
So… Jade Carlson and Nathaniel were openly dating in the Summers Family, and she was still focusing on her own case without knowing it?!
Purple suddenly felt that she didn’t die in vain…
Even clichés like “love is blind” couldn’t cover up her stupidity.
At the same time…
She also felt puzzled.
When she dragged her tired body back home, Nathaniel cared for her and asked about her condition.
When she announced her promotion to senior prosecutor, the whole Summers Family showed their pride.
Were those all fake?
What did they take her for?! Not one of them mentioned Jade Carlson’s involvement! -everyone was hiding it from her!
When Purple thought of the pain, the frustration of not being able to vent made her almost suffocate!
She found herself trapped in a dead end, entangled in deception and concealment.
It was of no benefit to her, except to make herself more miserable, and she couldn’t get any help from it.
Purple came to the window and looked out at the flowers and trees in the garden.
With their fresh green leaves and vibrant flowers, plants always have the magic to make people calm.
The sunshine was brilliant, the light green window fringe was coated with a warm glow in the sunlight, making the room warm and elegant.
Purple thought Atra Blanc’s taste was good, every detail in the room was to her liking, and she was glad that the original Purple hadn’t messed up the room.
She sat by the window for a while, her mood gradually calming down.
The current situation looked clearer now…
Nathaniel seemed unaware of her murder.
Jade Carlson was more interesting, insisting that she committed suicide, and mentioning insurance money.
Before her death, she did take out the highest amount of accidental death insurance.
As a prosecutor often faced with criminals, she had taken out insurance for herself early to ensure her grandmother wouldn’t be left without support due to her job’s special nature.
Later, after her grandmother passed away, the beneficiary of the insurance was changed to Nathaniel Summers.
According to Jade’s words, the insinuation was that she deliberately designed her own “accidental” drowning accident to save the Summers Corporation with the huge insurance payout from her suicide, a way to help Nathaniel through the crisis.
Ha…
Would she be so great?
The most ironic thing is that Nathaniel actually believed such a far-fetched explanation!
Who knows, maybe he’d been plotting the insurance money in secret all along, and now he’s just going with the flow…
Purple was a bit darkly speculating.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and Atra Blanc asked in a soft voice outside, “Purple, can I come in?”
Purple collected her chaotic thoughts and went to open the door.
Atra Blanc smiled and said, “Your brother is bringing his girlfriend home for dinner. I’m going to buy groceries now. Is there anything you want to eat?”
This was quite a rarity: Alexander Summers hardly ever came over for dinner, let alone bringing his girlfriend.
Purple replied absently, “I’m fine with anything.”
“Then I’ll make pork feet with soybeans.” Atra Blanc counted on her fingers, “plus spicy pepper fish head, um… taro balls and baby cabbage…”
Purple looked at Atra Blanc with a weird expression.
Why were they all her favorite dishes…
