Chapter 895: Chapter 895: I Fell in Love First

They slept in until eight o’clock the next day.

The yacht’s restaurant offered breakfast, and Alexander asked Purple what she would like to eat before heading to the restaurant to fetch breakfast for her.

Purple lay in bed with her eyes closed, dozing off for a while longer, unable to fall asleep, yet unwilling to get up.

She sat on the bed for quite some time, pondering how to explain today’s events to Atra.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

If it were Alexander, he should have just come in directly, but who else on this boat would come to find her?

The tour guide?

Purple grabbed a piece of clothing at random to drape over herself and went to the door. She opened it, surprised to see Clyde standing outside.

With his tall and imposing stature, he exuded an oppressive presence merely by standing at the door, his deep and tranquil eyes like ancient, still waters, betraying no flicker of emotion.

Purple furrowed her eyebrows, “What are you here for?”

“We need to talk,” Clyde said.

Laughter from a woman filtered in from outside. The tourists and companions from next door, having finished breakfast, were returning, and the passageway was bustling.

Purple, frowning, let Clyde come in and closed the door again.

“We have nothing to talk about, the things you’ve done make me feel sick!” Purple said with disgust, “I will take my mom away, and if you still have any conscience, don’t stop us, and don’t appear in front of her again!”

There was not even the slightest change in Clyde’s expression, as Purple’s reaction was expected.

“Purple, she’s pregnant,” Clyde stated.

Purple’s face turned ashen in an instant.

Almost without thinking, she raised her hand and violently slapped Clyde!

“Are you even human?!” Purple raged, “She’s almost forty-six; you want her to have a child! Are you mad? You will destroy her!!!”

Purple was furious to the extreme, and the force behind her slap left a red mark on Clyde’s face immediately.

His eyes sharpened coldly, and, unexpectedly, his lips slowly curved upward, revealing a mocking smile.

“So, what now? You want to take her back, persuade her to abort the child?” Clyde looked down at Purple coldly, “And then let her continue living alone in that pathetic little Western-style house, all the way until her death?”

“She can pursue a new life! But a new life doesn’t mean being deceived!” Purple was incensed, “Clyde! You lied to her!”

Clyde merely smiled in response, “I simply fulfilled her illusion.”

Purple looked at him in disbelief.

“When I took her away, I told her I missed her, hoped she would spend a few days with me, just a few days, and then I’d send her back,” Clyde continued, “She’s still the same, soft-hearted and easy to fool, actually believing that accompanying me for a few days would mean she could go home.”

Disgust and loathing showed on Purple’s face: “You didn’t send her home.”

“I couldn’t bear to,” Clyde said with a faint smile, a hint of self-mockery in his voice, “So I postponed it day by day, and before I knew it, half a month had gone by, she started to panic, trying to run away, and in her frantic state, she fell down the stairs, injuring her head.”

Clyde’s fingers clenched, his voice deep with remorse, “I regret it, I never meant to hurt her. On the way to the hospital, I told myself as soon as she woke up, I would definitely send her back. But do you know, when she woke up, she called me ‘husband’… she called me ‘husband,’ you understand? I couldn’t possibly send her back anymore!”

After years of yearning without success, once he finally obtained what he desired, he couldn’t let go!

Purple’s expression froze; she understood all too well. Clyde and Old Master Summers bore a resemblance, and it was entirely possible that Atra, in her confused state, mistook one for the other.

But a mistake was a mistake, even if Clyde resembled Old Master Summers, he was not Old Master Summers!

“You’re too selfish! You will kill her!” Purple was both enraged and heartbroken, “Atra has no quarrel with you, Old Master Summers treated you well, how can you do this to them?!”

Clyde’s face turned livid as he shouted, “I loved her first! She should have been mine from the beginning! You think giving me 60% of the shares is nurturing? That’s his compensation to me! He stole my woman, and as redemption for his guilty conscience, he compensated me!!!”
