Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 736 - Out of Sight, Out of Mind_1
Chapter 736: Chapter 736 Out of Sight, Out of Mind_1
Employing extrajudicial punishment was against Purple Summers’s principles.
But Purple Summers also knew very well that the people under Alexander Summers’s command ate their meals from this very bowl.
Each to their own way, when you hire thugs, don’t expect them to reason like gentlemen.
However, watching them torture with her own eyes seemed to violate her principles, so it was better for her to leave.
Out of sight, out of mind, although this approach was quite hypocritical…
Purple Summers stood awkwardly outside the door, hearing the ghostly wails and howls of pain inside, hesitating whether she should move even further away.
At that moment, someone came out from inside and said, “Miss, we got it out of them. They were arranged by Sheldon Fowler, deliberately creating the illusion of being kidnapped through Yolanda’s hand to extort money. Sheldon Fowler promised them 150 thousand.”
45 thousand and 150 thousand, a math problem even a fool could solve.
Purple Summers faintly smelled the blood from inside, subconsciously covered her nose and mouth, and whispered, “Keep them for a few days, don’t kill them, let them go next Sunday.”
The day of the banquet was Saturday, as long as it didn’t affect her party, this pair of resentful lovers could play their parts however they liked, Purple Summers couldn’t be bothered to care.
She didn’t enter that courtyard again, afraid of leaving psychological scars, and hurried back home by car, pretending to be unaware of what had transpired, although, she quietly removed Sheldon Fowler from the invitation list.
Dylan Summers also had an invitation list, mainly consisting of his superiors and subordinates, with some relatives and friends as well.
Before printing the invitations, Purple Summers specifically asked Dylan to confirm the list once more and noticed that the name Sheldon Fowler, which she had removed, was added back somehow.
She pretended to be hesitant and pointed at Sheldon Fowler’s name, “This person…”
Dylan looked at her, not understanding why she mentioned it.
Purple Summers carefully observed Dylan’s expression, seeing confusion in his eyes, she knew that it must have been Yolanda who added the name when Dylan wasn’t paying attention.
“It’s nothing, I made a mistake.” Purple Summers smiled casually and said, “I hadn’t considered it properly before, there’s no need to invite this person.”
Dylan then instructed the housekeeper to strike out Sheldon Fowler’s name. The remaining names were taken to be printed on the invitations.
Yolanda was clearly very concerned about this matter.
After the invitations were printed and delivered to the Summers Residence, Yolanda looked through them immediately and her face changed instantly upon discovering Sheldon Fowler’s name was absent.
In reality, she could’ve invited Sheldon Fowler to the house herself.

But in that case, if Sheldon Fowler died later, the Fowler Family would definitely vent their anger on her.
Imagine, the sole heir of three generations, kidnapped and murdered because he accepted Yolanda’s invitation, the Fowler Family would likely hate Yolanda to death!
Even if Yolanda herself was kidnapped, she would ultimately come back unharmed, and in the future, when this matter was discussed, people would gossip that Yolanda was a curse.
Therefore, Yolanda could not invite Sheldon Fowler openly.
She could only spread the news secretly, indirectly letting others invite him. This way, the whole affair would be interpreted as: Sheldon Fowler wanting to reconcile with his ex-girlfriend, stubbornly persisting, and as a result, dragging his girlfriend into a kidnapping crisis.
Sheldon Fowler would become the author of his own misfortune, and Yolanda the most innocent victim.
This was the effect Yolanda wanted.
Yolanda was restless at home, neither able to openly extend an invitation nor able to figure out how to make Sheldon Fowler come on his own initiative. What should she do?
To make this kidnapping go smoothly, every step had to be executed precisely.
After much thought, Yolanda chose the time after dinner to visit Purple Summers at the small western-style house.
Purple Summers was in her room doing homework when she saw Yolanda coming and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
“Little aunt, could I ask you for a favor?” Yolanda cut to the chase.
She had already prepared her speech, her smile tender, making it difficult to imagine that behind that smiling face, she was brewing a murder plot.
Purple Summers looked at her impassively and asked with a smile, “What is it?”
