Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

What was the intention for concealing this until now?

Having lost all face, Jade Carlson hints at Purple Summers’s deep scheming in front of everyone.

A sixteen-year-old girl, no matter how smart and clever, would surely leave a deep impression of cunning if she’s known for her scheming. It could make people think of her as calculating and deceitful, and therefore unlikable.

But such a counterattack seemed feeble to Purple Summers.

It was like a person about to drown, struggling for the last time at the bottom of the water, utterly meaningless.

Purple Summers smiled, leisurely walking to Jade Carlson. Her blossoming peach blossom smile was pure and charming, but her eyes were as sharp as ice.

“This dress is beautiful; are you comfortable in it?” Purple Summers asked her with a bright smile.

Jade Carlson froze.

“Wearing my sister-in-law’s dress and helping my third brother with the banquet, you two seem to be getting closer…” Purple Summers’ words were slow and clear, “Con-grat-u-la-tions.”

The music stopped unexpectedly.

The elaborately designed banquet hall became deathly silent…

Jade Carlson’s face had already lost its color.

Her crimson nails dug deep into her palms, her body trembling, feeling like she was not wearing a gorgeous dress, but rather, a set of piercing thorns that made her blood run!

In a trance, she heard whispers around her:

“Is she really wearing Suzanne Saunders’s dress? No wonder it looks a bit ill-fitting…”

“Suzanne passed away just a month ago …”

“Nathaniel Summers wouldn’t really marry her, would he? …”

The fragmented whispers gradually brought Nathaniel Summers back to his senses. He turned and glared at Jade Carlson’s dress with chilling eyes.

“Nathaniel, I…” Jade Carlson spluttered, unable to defend herself.

Nathaniel Summers’ face turned greenish-blue, his breath heavy.

He slowly put down the wine glass in his hand, and the tendons on the back of his hand bulged, making an almost audible creaking sound.

It was common for female friends to help with a banquet, and wearing someone else’s dress to the event was nothing special. However, both of these incidents blended together and fell on Jade Carlson, bringing Nathaniel great embarrassment!

He had never been so embarrassed in his life!

Nathaniel Summers remained silent, step by step, as he left the banquet hall.

“Nathaniel, Nathaniel!…” A completely panicked Jade Carlson stumbled after him!

He was her everything, and if she lost him, she would be truly finished!

But at this moment, the last person Nathaniel Summers wanted to see was Jade Carlson! He felt played, thoroughly played by Jade Carlson!

She volunteered to help with his banquet, then wore his wife’s dress, entertaining guests with the manner of the mistress. What did she want to achieve? Did she think he was stupid and wouldn’t know anything?!

Nathaniel Summers was furious!

But he couldn’t lose his composure, at least not in the Summers Family home, nor in front of the gathering of guests.

He went straight to the garage, got into his car, and sped away! He disregarded Jade Carlson’s crying and chasing after him.

At the front yard of the Summers Family property, the vintage fountains splashed in layers, water columns dancing, the clear spray glinting under the sunlight, like countless fragments of pearls and glass, enchantingly beautiful.

Purple Summers walked slowly through the delicate mist, looking relaxed.

The car from the Jameson Family coming to pick her up waited outside the large wrought iron gate entwined with vines.

Jade Carlson was also outside the gate, her face pale as paper, and trembling all over.

As she watched Purple Summers walking gracefully and sitting in the car with the servant’s courteous gesture, Jade Carlson finally came to her senses.

“It’s your fault!”

Today’s embarrassment was all because of Purple Summers!

The corner of Purple Summers’s lips curled up in a slight smile. She raised her eyes a little, her gaze cold and dignified, “How did I harm you? Did I tell you that you were the one invited by the Jameson Family? Did I force you to put on Suzanne’s dress? Jade Carlson, you brought this upon yourself!”

Jade Carlson felt like she had been struck by lightning.

She stood dumbfounded in place, watching the car drive away…
