Chapter 640: Chapter 640: The Frog in the Well_1
Walking into the piano store, Purple Summers immediately spotted the second young master of the Graves Family, Gerald Graves.
Following the last kidnapping incident, he had been kept on a tight leash by Gavin Graves and stopped his days of debauchery. He gradually began to involve himself in the Graves Group’s businesses.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Gavin apparently had intentions of cultivating his younger brother. Although Gerald was not very adept at it, at least he had a proper job now and wasn’t as aimless as before.
Upon seeing Purple Summers, Gerald greeted her enthusiastically, “Ms. Summers, are you here to buy a piano?”
“I’m accompanying a friend,” Purple responded with a smile.
“What a coincidence, I’m also here with a friend.” Gerald nodded towards a woman nearby and lowered his voice slightly, “We have an honored guest from Kingsley. My brother instructed me to take good care of her over these few days, to ensure the guest eats well and enjoys her stay.”
Purple couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Leaving this task to the second young master seems like the right choice.”
When it came to pleasure, who could surpass Second Young Master Graves? It was clear Gavin was making full use of him.
Gerald also seemed quite proud and said with a smile, “I’ll be celebrating my birthday next week. Remember to come and have fun, Ms. Summers.”
He glanced at the people behind Purple Summers and added, “Bring your friends along at that time too; the more, the merrier!”
While talking, he took out several business cards from his pocket and distributed them to Ryan Wesley and the others.
“Saturday night at six, perfect timing, make sure to be there,” Gerald warmly invited Purple Summers and her friends.
Meanwhile, the woman who was selecting a guqin noticed Gerald chatting and came over with a gentle smile, asking, “Second young master, your friends?”
Gerald introduced her, “This is Purple Summers. I got into some legal trouble last time, and she helped me out. I am inviting them to join my birthday party next week.”
Then he introduced the woman to Purple Summers, “This is Violet Nelson, her uncle is a senator. Violet just came over from Kingsley City and is looking to buy some gifts to take back.”
That introduction was rather intriguing.
Typically, when young men and women introduce each other, they mention which school they graduated from and might casually refer to famous parents if relevant. To bring up an uncle like this, there was only one possibility: Violet Nelson’s uncle was not just a senator but also a core member of it.
Purple Summers’ gaze fell upon Violet Nelson before her—
Her features were delicate and stunning, her dress simple yet graceful, and a gentle smile always played within her beautiful eyes. She seemed amiable, yet there was a certain distance in her demeanor.
This distance lent her an air of aloofness, adding mystery and making her a stunning beauty to behold in awe.
As Purple Summers examined Violet, Violet was also sizing her up.
“Ms. Summers seems quite young; it’s surprising that you could handle lawsuits,” Violet said with a hint of surprise in her serene smile, “Clearwater really is a place full of capable people. If you come to Kingsley to develop your career, we might meet again.”
She praised Purple in a tone that was light but carried an imperceptible superiority, as if going to Kingsley was the greatest prospect for Purple’s future, away from Clearwater.
The feeling was extremely subtle, barely noticeable if not listened to carefully.
Purple smiled. She didn’t mind, as she wasn’t close to this woman. What the other thought was none of her business.
Violet, on the other hand, was even more astonished. She thought to herself: How arrogant this girl is, not showing a hint of modesty. She must believe that being somewhat famous in Clearwater City makes her invincible without realizing that there’s always someone better and that sooner or later, she’ll take a fall!
