Purple Summers asked Iris Maple to promise her one thing.

As she said these words, her clear eyes twinkled, and a trace of a smile appeared on her face.

Iris Maple gazed at Purple, hesitant for a moment.

It wasn’t because she didn’t want to promise, as her son was in prison, she would agree to anything, even a hundred things!

She just didn’t have any idea what Purple wanted her to do.

“Ms. Summers, whatever you ask, as long as I can do it, I won’t refuse.” Iris Maple replied earnestly.

Her tone was firm and resolute, as if implying something.

Marcel Jefferson and Aria Jackson didn’t understand.

Purple smiled and said, “Don’t worry, it’s definitely something you can do.”

With that settled, Iris Maple let out a relieved smile and then went to sign the contract with Marcel Jefferson.

Aria Jackson and Purple Summers then went to the beef noodle restaurant—

They ordered two bowls of beef noodles, one without chili, and the other without green onions.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Aria Jackson asked Purple what she was going to ask Iris Maple to do.

Purple motioned her closer and whispered into her ear.

Upon hearing it, a mischievous smile played on Aria’s face, and she chuckled, saying, “You’re so bad.”

Purple didn’t say anything, just smiled and ate her noodles.

After the girl’s murder case was solved, Jade Carlson became a hero. Because she was a woman, the internet praised her and extolled her virtues, elevating her to the status of a goddess.

Her hospital room was filled with flowers, and her table was piled high with thank-you letters. Many gifts from the victims’ families were also sent to her!

Jade Carlson’s name had become known to everyone.

Nathaniel Summers received a call from Jade’s aunt, asking him to visit Jade in the hospital.

“…I don’t know what happened between you and Jade, but even if she made a huge mistake, she’s now lying in a hospital bed, calling your name in her dreams every night. You should at least come and see her, right? She’s done so much for you; you should have a conscience.”

The heavy words on the phone made Nathaniel feel guilty.

He had been avoiding Jade for a long time, not just because he was angry, but also embarrassed.

What did Jade do wrong? She only wore his wife’s clothes, putting him in an awkward position in front of everyone.

His refusal to see Jade wasn’t so much punishing her as it was his own escape. He didn’t want people to think he was fickle, finding new affection after his wife’s death.

Nathaniel wasn’t a heartless person. Time had made him forget the anger of that day and remember Jade’s devotion to him. He felt that he should visit her.

Besides, Jade had made great contributions this time by solving a major case!

Punishing evil and promoting good was an extremely honorable deed that could cover up one’s own flaws of character.

He walked into the ward, and Jade was lying in bed, her face blurred by the backlight. As he got closer, he saw the tears in her eyes.

Nathaniel couldn’t bear seeing her frail and haggard appearance.

“Nathaniel.” Jade leaned on the bed, her delicate voice choked with sobs, “I’m sorry…”

She didn’t justify herself. One simple apology made her even more pitiable. This was Jade’s cleverness.

Upon hearing this, the last shred of resentment in Nathaniel’s heart disappeared.

“I was wrong too,” he said softly.

The tears in Jade’s eyes fell, like sorrow pouring from her heart, yet also like tears of joy. The smile at the corner of her mouth made her look more pitiful.

Nathaniel sighed softly and took a tissue from the bedside drawer to wipe her tears.

The rift between them was finally mended.

As they were talking, suddenly, there were many footsteps outside the ward, followed by the sounds of camera flashes—click, click—
