Chapter 608: Chapter 608: Marriage Rtionship_1


    The cafeteria at noon was like a battlefield, with students hurrying to line up for their meals before their favorite dishes sold out. A student had just finished speaking to Purple Summers and rushed off, joining the queue.


    Purple didn’t even have time to ask who was looking for her.


    Upon reflection, she considered it possible that Atra nc had been wary of the enthusiastguage teacher, hence didn’t dare toe find her in ss.


    Purple absentmindedly ate a few bites of rice, greeted Zara Jameson and Jane McCain, and then headed for the school entrance.


    Unexpectedly, the person who came looking for her was not Atra nc but Nathaniel Summers.


    Purple’s brow furrowed instinctively, her eyes filling with wariness immediately. She had a hunch that Nathaniel’s arrival spelled trouble; was he here to scold her again?


    “Is there something you need?” Purple eyed him warily, stopping at a moderate distance.


    Nathaniel tossed away his cigarette and opened the passenger seat door, saying, “Let’s talk in the car, there are too many people around here.”


    Purple didn’t budge.


    Who knew if Nathaniel would lose his temper like thest time and drive her all the way to the riverbank? She had sses in the afternoon and couldn’t afford any dys.<div>


    “I have a train at 2 PM,” Nathaniel said.


    His words implied he was leaving soon and wouldn’t trouble Purple any further.


    Purple was taken aback, pausing for a moment before noticing that Nathaniel’s attire was indeed different from usual.


    Typically dressed in a suit, the image of a polished business elite, he was now in tracksuit trousers and a hoodie, clearly dressed forfortable travel.


    Nathaniel stood quietly by the passenger door, waiting for her.


    Seeing his calm expression, not looking like he was about to lose his temper, Purple hesitated a bit before finally getting into the car.


    Nathaniel took his ce in the driver’s seat.


    Purple saw the backpack on the rear seat and was even more surprised. Nathaniel was really leaving, and judging by his appearance, it was definitely not for a business trip. He looked more like a backpacker ready to travel alone.


    This was so out of character for Nathaniel.


    “Last time you asked me about Jade Carlson, I lost my temper at you; that was wrong of me,” Nathaniel began dispassionately. “You didn’te home all night, and in the morning, you returned with Alexander Summers. It upset me, so I’ve been on edge these past few days.”


    Purple was at a loss for words. How had it be her fault?


    “You don’t need to think about Jade Carlson anymore,” Nathaniel continued. “That night, the call was made because I pressured her to. I threatened her, wanting her to confess to switching the medication. After that… perhaps due to a guilty conscience for her actions, she didn’t want a confrontation with you, so she ran away, not expecting to run into her debt collectors and have an ident.”


    Nathaniel nced at her, adding, “She’s been using drugs for a while, so her having an ident isn’t strange. You don’t need to dwell on it. The medication was switched by her, out of jealousy or something else—who can really say?”


    A sense of relief washed over Purple.


    Whether it was Nathaniel’s tone or his exnation of the whole matter, it all made her feel a brief respite.


    rifying things undoubtedly benefited them both.


    Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the treetops, casting mottled, fragmented shadows inside the car, warm andforting. asionally, students passed by, theirughter carrying over, unaware of the people in the car.


    “Thank you,” Purple let out a soft breath, grateful that Nathaniel could speak to her calmly about these matters instead of harboring resentment and engaging in endless disputes.


    There’s a saying, ‘One day as a couple, a hundred days of grace.’ No matter what had transpired, Purple hoped to part with Nathaniel on good terms.<div>


    The atmosphere lightened, and both of them remained calm.


    “I will be taking a long trip and am not sure when I’ll return,” Nathaniel spoke. “… During my absence, I hope you can reconsider our rtionship. After all, we have never divorced, and I hope you can respect this marriage.”


    Purple was stunned, her previously rxed nerves tensing once again.


    “Are you serious?” she stared at Nathaniel, incredulous. “You… knowing well that I’m already with him, you still want to continue this marriage?”<div>
