âYou donât remember your own birthday?â Purple Summers asked in surprise, turning to look at him, âWhy did you come back then?â
Alexander Summers was silent for a moment before saying, âYou tell me, why did I come back?â
Purple:
Could it be⦠that he came back just to congratulate her on winning the lawsuit?
The bouquet of white roses was still on the bed. Because of their recent entanglement, the flowers were scattered chaotically, and the white petals spread out one after another, carrying a rich and mysterious scent.
There was a slow silence in the room, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere.
Purple felt uncomfortable, tightening the quilt around her and sulking, âWho knows? Youâre always appearing out of nowhere.â
âYouâre such a little contradiction,â Alexander Summers laughed lightly, then moved closer, his burning breath making her shiver slightly.
He was so tall and strong, that when he hugged her from behind, he was like a mountain â solid and dependable.
As they snuggled quietly in bed, Alexander suddenly asked, âDo you like being involved in lawsuits? If not, Iâll buy a law firm for you.â
âDo you think youâre buying groceries?â Purple scoffed, half amused, half annoyed. âAnd whatâs the point of arguing with words? I donât like it.â
Alexander Summers asked, âIf you donât like it, why do you go?â
âItâs because Iâm ambitious,â Purple answered.
Actually, sometimes Purple felt that she revealed too much in front of Alexander Summers, and he should have recognized her as Suzanne Saunders already.
But other times, she felt that she was overthinking. Alexander was busy pursuing his own grand ambitions and wouldnât have time to pay attention to his sister-in-law. They never even talked much.
Purple cleared her mind of those messy thoughts and patiently explained to him, âAlthough my last name is Summers, my position in the Summers Family is shaky, so I will have to stand on my own eventually. Gaining experience now will help me in the future after I graduate, whether I become a lawyer or a prosecutor, both are promising careers.â
At the end, she added sarcastically: âOf course, my future canât compare to Master Xanderâs.â
Alexander Summers chuckled, enjoying the sight of Purple planning her future while nestled in his arms, finding it especially adorable.
âYour future is to be married to me,â he declared domineeringly.
Purple pouted her lips and rolled her eyes silently.
â¦Yeah, even her eye-rolling was adorable.
Alexander Summers was in a great mood and wanted to kiss her again.
Panic-stricken, Purple pushed him away, yelling, âAlexander Summers! Youâre crazy again!â
Alexander stopped and asked, âWhatâs the birthday gift Purple is giving me?â
Purpleâs body stiffened:
What she feared came trueâ¦
The room was silent.
Alexander Summers waited silently, his deep, dark eyes flashing a dangerous glint.
ââ¦Didnât prepare one?â he asked in a hoarse voice.
Purpleâs gaze wavered, âWell⦠actually, itâs past midnight, so itâs not technically your birthday anymore.â
Alexanderâs breath caught, and two seconds later, he said slowly, âItâs okay,
Purple can give herself as a gift to meâ¦â
Purpleâs back tensed up, her scalp tingling with dread.
She quickly clung to Alexanderâs arm, âCan I make it up to you tomorrow?â
Alexander didnât respond, bent down, and kissed her neck, nibbling at it.
âI want my birthday gift now,â he said in a low, resolute, yet bone-melting voice, âNo gift, and Iâll take you right now.â
Who demands birthday gifts like that? Itâs totally unreasonable!
Purple was driven to the brink of madness by him!
âI have a gift!â She pushed him away forcefully, âGet up, Iâll give you a birthday gift!â
Alexander Summers got up, suspiciously eyeing her, wondering how she would get out of this.
Purple sat up, her face flushed with anger, holding out her palm to him, âGive me your phone lanyard.â
Alexanderâs eyebrow raised slightly, asking, âWhat are you going to do?â
âIf you want the gift, just give it to me!â Purple commanded haughtily, lifting her chin.
