Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

Chapter 531: Chapter 531 The Old Master Has Arrived_1

Purple Summers really looked down on Alexander Summers when he acted like this, throwing a temper tantrum over such a trivial matter, acting all neurotic. It was embarrassing even to speak of it.

She took out her phone, pulled up a song to play, and asked Alexander, “Is this one okay?”

The music was soothing and melodious, and Alexander’s thoughts became lively.

He had never danced with her before.

Of course, Nathaniel hadn’t either, but she hadn’t expected Gavin Graves to beat them to it. Indeed, Alexander had been careless, but fortunately, now he could make it up.

Alexander immediately pulled Purple to her feet.

The room was not as spacious as a dance floor, but with just the two of them, there was plenty of space to dance.

Alexander began to dance with Purple, holding her hand. He seemed a bit nervous, his palm slightly clammy.

Purple also became inexplicably nervous, her cheeks reddening as she said softly, “Let’s get one thing straight, we’re only dancing to this one song. You can’t disappear for the entire event today.”

A dance lasted only seven or eight minutes, which was enough time for them to be sickeningly sweet together.

“Quit nagging and focus,” Alexander chided her.

His dance moves were a bit messy, far inferior to Gavin’s.

This was understandable. Gavin was born into a wealthy family and had often attended such events since he was young; naturally, he was a good dancer. On the other hand, Alexander grew up in the casino, with no one to teach him to dance. He had never taken the time to learn, nor did he have a female partner to practice with, so his dancing was quite bad.

Purple was stepped on twice by Alexander and said angrily, “You’re not even dancing, you’re just taking revenge on me deliberately!”

Alexander retorted, “You dance terribly. You should have moved back then, but you insisted on moving forward. Whose fault is it that you got stepped on?”

“I was just fine when I danced with Young Master Graves just now!” Purple complained angrily, “And Gavin even complimented me on my dancing!”

The moment Gavin was mentioned, Alexander’s anger flared up, and he said unkindly, “He has improper thoughts about you, of course he’d flatter you! Only a pig-brain like you would believe everything he says!”

“If I have a pig-brain, then what kind of brain do you have? Is your brain filled with banana mush?! Filled with nothing but lewd thoughts!”

Purple viciously stepped on Alexander’s foot!

Their dance became a complete mess, degenerating into a game of mutual foot-stepping. Alexander didn’t want to step hard on her, but Purple was ruthless, stepping on him several times to vent her frustration.

However, although Alexander didn’t want to step on her, he didn’t mind doing other things, like kissing or caressing. He was always exceptionally good at these kinds of things.

He pinned Purple on the sofa and kissed her until she almost cried, then finally let her go with seeming reluctance.

“Making such a fuss wearing such high heels.” He took off Purple’s shoes, cradled her in his arms, and massaged her feet, noting the red marks behind her ankle. He added, “See, this is what you get for dancing with other men. Does it hurt?”

Purple snorted, “It doesn’t hurt!”

“It doesn’t hurt?” Alexander looked at her with a cold laugh, a dangerous glint in his eyes, “Then shall we dance again?”

Purple pursed her lips and didn’t say a word, curling up on the sofa, looking pitiful.

“What’s the point of dancing? Let’s not do it again.” Alexander kissed her affectionately, coaxing, “Let’s never dance again.”

At that moment, someone knocked on the door.

Zack Wallace’s voice was cautious, “Master Xander, the old master has arrived, we should go out and greet him…”

Alexander frowned, gave Purple a kiss on her forehead, and then rose to leave.

Purple rested alone in the room for a while before getting up to tidy her hair and clothes.

She noticed a wrinkle on the side of her dress and softly cursed, “Barbarian.”

After leaving the room, she didn’t forget to go to the bridesmaid’s resting room to look for Sarah.

Sarah wasn’t there, so Purple returned to the banquet hall on the first floor.

By this time, all the guests in the dance floor area had gathered in one place. At the high seat of the banquet, an old man wearing an old-fashioned mandarin jacket sat, while Sarah and Lily Howard were bowing and talking in front of the old man.
