Chapter 335: Chapter 335: Dirty
Translator: 549690339
Nathaniel Summers had dark circles under his eyes, and there was a deep melancholy in his gaze.
He hadn’t slept all night.
Every time he closed his eyes, he thought about the siblings’ affairs, worried that the scandal would be exposed and ruin the Summers Family’s reputation, angry at Alexander Summers for being reckless and inconsiderate, and sympathetic to Purple Summers for experiencing this at such a young age… Various thoughts surfaced in his mind, leaving him restless and unable to sleep.
After a long silence, Nathaniel finally spoke, “Purple… you and Alexander… you can’t go on like this.”
Purple’s eyes widened.
A chill swept through her body without warning, starting from the soles of her feet and enveloping her entire being.
She was stunned.
Nathaniel knew?!
Seeing the fear in her eyes, Nathaniel felt sorry for her and immediately said, “Purple, don’t be afraid, I won’t tell anyone. Alexander is entirely in the wrong here, he’s made a huge mistake! You’re his sister; he shouldn’t treat you like this.”
Nathaniel had witnessed Alexander taking her out, and she had been struggling at the time. Alexander had forced her into the car, so Nathaniel was certain that Purple was helpless in the situation.
Purple sat down by the bed, her mind in disarray, as if all her strength had been drained.
She had always known that the truth wouldn’t remain hidden forever, but she hadn’t expected this day to come so soon!
The consequences of Alexander’s actions would fall on her to bear!
Why is it like this?
Purple felt wronged.
“I’ll talk to Alexander,” Nathaniel said solemnly, “but there are some things we may need to prepare for the worst. Your brother has always been distant from us siblings, and he may not listen to me. So this is what I’m thinking…”
Nathaniel earnestly made plans for Purple, “Once you finish this semester, I’ll send you abroad to study. You can study and work there for a few years, and when Alexander’s feelings have faded, you can come back.”
Purple found this situation incredibly ironic.
Her former husband, or perhaps ex-husband, was helping her to get away from another man.
“Nathaniel, I don’t understand what you mean.” Purple gradually calmed down.
All Nathaniel had to go on was what he had seen and heard. He had no evidence, and he had to consider the Summers Family’s reputation, so he wouldn’t necessarily publicize the matter. She had no reason to fear him.
Her initial panic was due to feeling guilty and exposed, but now that she had thought things through, Purple regained her composure.
Seeing her attitude, Nathaniel couldn’t help but be taken aback. Recovering his wits, he admonished her, “Purple, don’t make a foolish mistake! You’re still young, and you have a long future ahead of you. You can’t throw it all away so easily!”
As soon as Nathaniel mentioned her future, Purple couldn’t help but think of Alexander saying that her future was marrying him.
When it came to marriage, Purple had already suffered once and was left with a shadow over her heart. Besides, there was a barrier of status and an unmarried fiancee between her and Alexander, and Alexander might not actually marry her.
Most importantly, their values were fundamentally at odds!
She would never stake her future on him.
“Nathaniel, I won’t go abroad, and I won’t leave the Summers Family. I can handle my own affairs, so you don’t need to worry.” Purple still coldly rejected Nathaniel’s good intentions.
Nathaniel frowned, “Handle it yourself? How do you plan to handle it? If you continue like this, people will find out sooner or later. Then idle gossip will swamp you! Every news website will have your name on it! Once a woman’s reputation is tainted, no matter how much you try to clean it, it will never be clean again. You need to think this through!”
Purple scoffed, “How am I tainted? I’ve lived a decent life, and I’ve done things honorably. Whether I am tainted or not, it’s not your place to preach, Nathaniel. Instead of worrying about me, why not focus on Jade Carlson? She just resigned from the Prosecutor’s Office, and her life is currently in disarray. She’s in a very miserable state.”
