Chapter 212: Purple Summers’ Old Lover
Translator: 549690339 |
Purple Summers felt confused, put down her bag, picked up the remote control, and turned on the TV.
The news channel was broadcasting a shocking report: A long-standing three-year girl murder case had finally been solved, the suspect had been arrested and would face trial in court soon.
And the person in charge of this case was Jade Carlson!
The news reported that Jade was courageous and fearless during the investigation, working tirelessly day and night. After the case was solved, she was admitted to the hospital due to extreme exhaustion. The journalists praised her as an excellent prosecutor for the people and a blessing to Clearwater City.
Jade Carlson’s work photo appeared on the TV screen.
It’s unclear if it was due to the halo of being a prosecutor, but her beauty was enhanced. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and she appeared simple yet elegant.
Purple watched silently.
Atra Blanc set the tableware in the dining room and softly called for her, “Purple, it’s time to eat.”
“Uh… I’ll be right there,” Purple replied, her eyes still on the TV.
Jade Carlson cracked a major case.
By solving such a significant case, Jade would definitely be rewarded, and the embarrassment at the previous banquet would mean nothing.
“She’s only been in her position for three months, and she’s already so lucky!” Aria Jackson sent Purple a message to vent.
Purple sat at the dinner table, quietly eating her rice, saw the message on her phone screen, and smiled faintly.
“Calm down, it’s not clear who won and who lost yet,” she replied with a message.
“I just can’t stand her smug look! A few compliments and she thinks she’s a goddess!”
Some journalists claimed that Jade Carlson might be Clearwater City’s second female goddess of justice after Suzanne Saunders. Aria felt like she had swallowed a fly, utterly disgusted.
When Suzanne first became a prosecutor, she faced lots of doubts.
Sexism exists to some extent in every industry, but it’s even more severe within judicial institutions. In recent years, the women’s rights movement became frequent, and the government began encouraging the employment of female prosecutors, female judges, and female police officers.
To put it mildly, Suzanne had overcome numerous difficulties, gradually gaining trust and reputation through the cases she accumulated. Aria, her partner, understood the hardships and sorrows more than anyone else.
After Suzanne’s death, Jade Carlson effortlessly enjoyed the fruits of her labor.
It’s no wonder Aria was so upset.
“It’s just one case. Don’t be in a rush. There will be a time when her true colors are exposed,” Purple typed leisurely and sent the message.
Jade Carlson used to be her assistant; Purple knew her capabilities better than anyone.
To be able to crack a case that had been unsolved for three years, luck played a significant role. Next time, Jade might not be so lucky.
Purple calmly continued eating.
A servant approached and said with a strange expression, “Miss Purple Summers, there’s someone outside claiming to be your friend. Would you like to let him in?”
“My friend?” Purple blinked, not understanding.
If it was Zara Jameson or Jane McCain coming to see her, wouldn’t they have called first?
“Mom, I’ll go take a look.” She put down her tableware and followed the servant toward the front door.
Before she even got close to the wrought iron gate, she saw a young man standing outside.
He had actually come to her home.
Purple subconsciously frowned.
The man stared at her through the twisted iron gate, his eyes wandering over her curvy figure, revealing a lustful desire.
Purple was wearing her school uniform, and her developing figure looked exceptionally attractive, accompanied by youthful innocence. As she walked, her thick black hair swayed gently, framing her delicate white complexion, adding an allure that captivated onlookers.
The man was amazed, he didn’t expect Purple to look so beautiful without her heavy makeup, beautiful enough to ignite a fire in his lower stomach, as if he couldn’t wait to taste her.
It seemed that his visit today was indeed the right choice, not only for money but also a beautiful woman..
