Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 713 - : Look at the Good Deeds You’ve Done_1
Chapter 713: Chapter 713: Look at the Good Deeds You’ve Done_1
The Summers Residence was surrounded by reporters, and Purple Summers guessed that the school wouldn’t be any quieter, so she took a leave of absence to rest at home.
Marcel Jefferson made a call specially to apologize to her.
“I didn’t know she was Mrs. Simonson,” Marcel Jefferson said in agitation. “I thought she was some rich man’s wife from Kingsley. Who would’ve thought her husband is Christopher Simonson! It’s ludicrous. How could such a huge misunderstanding arise! Mrs. Carter was clearly here to discuss a case; how did it turn into a family reunion?!”
“Have you been in contact with Mrs. Carter?” Purple Summers asked him.
Marcel Jefferson said, “She left immediately when the news broke out! Otherwise, she’d be surrounded by reporters at the hotel by now!”
“This incident was likely aimed at her.” Purple Summers rubbed her temples with irritation. “She came quietly; the Clearwater reporters had no clue about her identity. It must have been leaked from Kingsley.”
The surname Chen is common, and Caitlin Carter hardly made public appearances in the media. If it wasn’t for someone from Kingsley, who would know about her visit to Clearwater?
Marcel Jefferson asked, “Are we still taking the case?”
Purple Summers let out a sigh, “Taking it now would be meaningless; we’re lacking crucial decisive evidence. Let’s see what’s really going on with Mrs. Carter first.”
It was truly an unprovoked disaster.
Purple Summers felt incredibly unlucky.
After hanging up the phone, she turned around to see Atra Blanc standing at the door of the room, staring at her in distraction.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Purple Summers asked.
Atra Blanc hesitated, looking like she wanted to speak but stopped herself, “Purple… That Mrs. Simonson, did she come to take you back to Kingsley?”
Purple Summers couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “Mom, you can’t be serious? You believe that kind of news? Christopher Simonson is potentially going to be the president, am I supposed to be the president’s daughter? Stop joking! Mrs. Simonson came to see me because of her younger brother’s case, Mr. Jefferson was also present at the time. It’s just that the angle of the photo was unique, and Mr. Jefferson wasn’t captured in it, that’s all!”
Upon hearing this, Atra Blanc seemed greatly relieved and took a deep breath.
However, before she could relax for two seconds, she couldn’t resist asking, “Purple… have you never thought about finding your father?”
Purple Summers looked helplessly at Atra Blanc, “Mom, would you want me to spend my life being pointed at?”
Atra Blanc shook her head immediately.
“Then keep this secret in your stomach, don’t tell anyone,” Purple Summers instructed Atra Blanc. “Forget about Meredith Richards. I’m just an orphan adopted from the Richards Family. If reporters ask, you should answer like that and never mention Kingsley.”
Purple Summers feared that the soft-hearted Atra Blanc couldn’t withstand the bombardment of reporters, she used a strategy of kinship, gently hugging Atra Blanc and acting spoiled, “Mom, I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to be with you and my brother.”
“Mom doesn’t want to let you go either,” Atra Blanc said with tears welling up in her eyes, gently touching her daughter’s head. “Mom is scared you’ll be bullied if you go back.”
“Exactly, if there’s a stepmother there will be a stepfather, and my life will definitely be miserable if I go back! Who knows how I might be bullied!” Purple Summers quickly agreed to reinforce the effect. “So, mom, for my happiness, please don’t spill the beans, okay?”
Reminded of the news about stepmothers abusing legitimate children, Atra Blanc immediately nodded tearfully.
Purple Summers was relieved to see Atra Blanc nod, but at the same time, she wondered: With such a major incident at home, why was Alexander Summers nowhere to be seen?
…
The news about the illegitimate daughter also caused a huge stir in Kingsley.
As a hot candidate for president, Christopher Simonson was already under a lot of scrutiny. Now, with this news breaking, the public outcry was instant! Labeled as callous and heartless for abandoning his daughter for over a decade without any care, his approval rating plummeted by an indeterminate number of points overnight!
Old Mrs. Simonson trembled with fury and flung the newspaper fiercely onto Caitlin Carter’s face!
“Look! Look at the mess you’ve made!”
