Behind the screen, Aria Jackson looked at Purple Summers in surprise.
Purple was equally shocked.
…Someone drugged her? How come she didn’t know?
Could it be a lie made up by Dylan Summers to escape responsibility?
Aria had the same suspicion.
Suzanne Saunders was already dead, her body couldn’t even be found. Who could tell if she was drugged or not, it was anyone’s guess!
Mrs. Jameson was shocked, “Mr. Summers, why didn’t you tell the police about such an important matter at the time?!”
If this detail was exposed, Suzanne’s death would not be easily ruled as an accident!
“Mrs. Jameson, I wasn’t sure at the time either.” Dylan gave a bitter smile, “You know, at these young people’s parties, there are often pranks and jokes, like putting mustard in drinks, or adding lemon candy and mint candy. It’s quite common. I caught a glimpse of it accidentally, and I was not sure what it was. But I saw her going to the bow alone, so I followed her out of concern.”
After saying this, he sighed and continued, “Besides, all the friends and relatives at the party were invited by Nathaniel. Who would want to harm Suzanne? It doesn’t make sense.”
Mrs. Jameson sighed, “Heaven envies the gifted. Suzanne’s death was so sudden, even I feel regretful. Officer Jackson must be even more heartbroken.”
Dylan couldn’t help but sigh either.
Mrs. Jameson asked again, “Mr. Summers, did you see who drugged Suzanne?” Behind the screen, Purple and Aria looked at each other, their hearts racing.
If Dylan could provide a reasonable explanation, then what he said could be true.
— On the anniversary party of Nathaniel and Suzanne, someone drugged Suzanne.
Both of them held their breaths, waiting for the answer. However, the voice on the other side suddenly lowered, and they couldn’t hear the whispers clearly.
It was very strange, but they couldn’t just peek out, so they continued to wait patiently.
After waiting for a while, they heard Dylan saying goodbye to Mrs. Jameson.
Purple and Aria were both puzzled.
As they wondered, Mrs. Jameson came to the back of the screen with an unusually solemn expression on her face.
“Did he say who it was?” Aria asked anxiously.
Mrs. Jameson nodded heavily, took out her phone, and began to play a video.
“This is a video Laura took that day. Dylan saw this video and found out that someone tampered with Suzanne’s drink.”
Although there were no surveillance cameras on the yacht that day, the guests at the party took some short videos and group photos.
Laura and Yolanda both took quite a few, showing the eating, drinking, and laughing. Dylan accidentally discovered the clue while browsing through them casually.
In the thirty-second video, Jade Carlson appeared in the background around the seventeenth or eighteenth second.
She poured something into a glass of wine on the table. It was too far away to see what it was, but it was certain that she added something to the glass!
Purple’s lips turned pale, already faintly aware of what was about to happen…
As expected, a moment later Suzanne appeared in the frame, Jade said something to her and casually handed her the glass of wine. Suzanne then walked off with the glass and out of the frame.
The three of them watched the video in silence, no one spoke.
After a long time, Aria took a breath and said, “Thank you, Mrs. Jameson, for today.”
Mrs. Jameson still felt uneasy, covering her chest and said, “Did Jade Carlson kill Suzanne? That’s too scary… How can such a person be a prosecutor? She deserves to be struck by lightning!”
“It’s not clear yet. I will take this video back and have the colleagues from the Technical Department analyze it as soon as possible.” Aria’s voice was low and her eyes cold, “Dylan has been dishonest, keeping the video until now!”
If it was just a normal playful video, he should have deleted it long ago.. But Dylan kept it, which meant he knew that what Jade added to the wine was not just some mint candy!
