Translator: 549690339
Atra Blanc went off excitedly to buy groceries.
In fact, she could have easily left this task to the servants. The Summers Family had a big kitchen, and Atra could have given the menu to the servants without even lifting a finger to have the food prepared and served.
But Atra obviously wanted to do it herself, feeling that it showed more sincerity.
After she left, only Purple Summers was left in the small Western-style building.
She wandered around to get familiar with the environment and soon saw Alexander Summers return.
He led a young girl along the cobblestone path towards them.
The girl had a pretty and delicate appearance, wearing a cherry-pink plaid shirt and a wide, lake-blue skirt. Her long hair was braided into a fishtail braid, a very artsy outfit.
Although Purple didnât like Alexander much, she had no choice but to reluctantly play the role of hostess since Atra was not around.
She politely said, âMom has gone to buy groceries, so come and sit in the house first.â
âThis is May Francis.â Alexander introduced her without entering the house, his tone casual, âMy girlfriend.â
Then he said to May Francis, âMy sister, Purple.â
May Francis showed a friendly smile to Purple, âHello! You really look like your brother.â
Purpleâs mouth twitched slightlyâ¦
It seemed that this girlfriend was not very clear about the Summers Family situation, not knowing that she was the adopted daughter of Atra Blanc, and had no blood relationship with Alexander Summers.
She half-jokingly and half-hintingly said, âDo we really look alike? I think our personalities are quite different.â
How gentle and friendly she was, unlike the arrogant and rude Alexander. How could they ever be compared?
Alexander lost patience with their small talk and coldly left with the words âWeâll go for a walk in the garden,â before walking away.
May Francis quickly caught up with him, having to increase her pace just to keep up with Alexanderâs long strides.
As the two walked away one after the other, Purple looked at their backs and quietly sneered, âA walk in the garden? To me, it looks more like youâre walking the dog.â
Purple was disgusted by Alexanderâs careless attitude towards his girlfriend.
She felt that there was no emotion in his eyes, like a cold-blooded creature, selfish and indifferent, without any hint of consideration towards his female companion. This May Francis was probably going to become one of his many ex-girlfriends soon.
She didnât know what got into him today, actually bringing a woman home.

When Atra returned from buying groceries, Purple told her that Alexander and his girlfriend had arrived.
Atra got extremely excited upon hearing this and even a little nervous. She pulled Purple aside and asked if she should change her clothes and if her current outfit was appropriate, giving Purple the feeling like their mother-in-law/daughter-in-law positions had been reversedâ¦
âMom, you should start cooking first and then change your clothes.â Purple suggested.
âYeah, I would get the smell of cooking on me⦠Iâll change after cooking.â Atra muttered to herself, fully immersed into the kitchen.
It didnât take long for the aroma of the dishes to waft out.
Purple was getting a little greedyâ¦
She hadnât had a proper meal in a long time.
There was no need to mention the time she spent as a ghost, and after being reborn, her spleen and stomach were damaged due to excessive alcohol consumption. So, she could only have bland food while staying in the hospital.
But today was different.
Today, every dish was something she lovedâ¦
She eagerly waited in the dining room downstairs, watching Atra bring out one beautiful dish after another. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Atra caught her greedy look and couldnât help but laugh. She picked up a taro ball with her chopsticks and fed it to Purple, âHelp me taste it, howâs the saltiness?â
