Chapter 579: Chapter 579: The Impolite Housekeeper_1
“`
“Hmm, it is quite cute,” Purple Summers responded softly, her gaze somewhat distracted, as if lost in thought.
Allen Rivera and Norman Douglas had talked for over an hour, with Allen approaching the elder for advice like a humble junior.
Having visited for quite some time, it was about time to leave. Because Allen hadn’t brought up the case again, Norman treated him courteously and showed no sign of annoyance.
Finally, when Allen rose to take his leave, Norman stood to see him off.
At that moment, Purple Summers suddenly said, “Justice, we’ve heard about the troubles at home and we deeply sympathize. Depression sufferers often lack rationality and find it hard to communicate; their pain is immense and their families suffer greatly. With you busy at work every day and coming home to a wife who suffers from depression, have you ever felt resentment?”
Jane McCain, who was following close beside Purple Summers, widened her eyes in surprise.
She felt that Purple Summers was behaving very abnormally today!
It seemed as if she had come looking for trouble, asking about the young master’s divorce earlier and now speaking so bluntly, obviously offending.
What was Purple Summers trying to do?
As expected, Norman’s expression darkened.
This was indeed not a pleasant topic, but as a Justice, he wouldn’t stoop to arguing with a female student. He had good manners and, even though he was fuming inside, he wouldn’t embarrass someone to their face.
“I love my wife,” Norman said with a heavy voice. “Her depression is my failing for not having cared for her enough. I feel nothing but guilt towards her, how could I harbor resentment? After all, it was bearing my child that brought her to this state.”
“But she wants to divorce you, doesn’t she?” Purple Summers said with a gentle smile and soft tone, but her words were piercing. “Keeping her confined at home does her condition no good and doesn’t show any love for her. Why won’t you let her go? I really don’t understand…”
Jane McCain clenched Purple Summers’ hand nervously, wondering if Norman could contain himself and not slap her right there.
“She mentioned divorce out of emotional turmoil! Every married couple argues about divorce at some point, but how many truly go through with it?!” Norman was truly angry. A teenage girl standing before him, so arrogantly critiquing his domestic affairs!
Too preposterous!
The student was not only rude but overly presumptuous!
The housekeeper, who just happened to pass by the living room, couldn’t help but stop to speak up for Norman: “Miss, where did you hear such rumors? How can you say we’ve confined the lady? She moved in there herself! The lady has always been headstrong since her pregnancy, paying no heed to the master’s feelings. She didn’t let anyone see the child for months, almost driving the master to despair!”
The housekeeper was a middle-aged woman who found Purple Summers’ lack of manners unacceptable. Even though Purple Summers was a guest, she didn’t hesitate to assume a senior’s posture and scold her: “Miss, please be careful with your words if you’re not fully informed! You say the master doesn’t care for the lady, but in fact, the master has tried countless ways to coax her out, sought people to persuade her, even consulted psychiatrists. But when the lady loses control, she cares for nothing! The master, fearing for the child’s safety, once tried forcefully to take the door off its hinges, to which the lady responded by firing a gun at him! We didn’t even report it to the police and continued catering to her every need! What more do you expect someone to do to show care?”
The housekeeper’s voice was sharp and shrill, attracting several servants who peered curiously from doorways and windows.

Purple Summers glanced at them, seeing agreement in their eyes. Clearly, the servants all thought Mr. Douglas had done everything he possibly could for his wife.
Even the female private tutor, drawn by the argument, stopped at the top of the stairs to observe the commotion in the living room.
The housekeeper’s rebuke to a guest was extremely rude, but given Purple Summers’ provoking questions had irritated Norman, he didn’t insist on an apology from the housekeeper.
He stood up with aloofness and said, “I apologize for the neglect. Please take your leave.”
