Chapter 843: Chapter 843 I Will Win_1
Purple Summers anticipated that Caitlin Carter would come; it was her younger brother’s case, and she couldn’t possibly be indifferent to it.
“Purple, I…” Caitlin Carter stood at the door, her emotions running high, “My younger brother’s case…”
“Come in,” Purple Summers stepped aside to let Caitlin Carter in, then closed the door behind her.
“I have to go out in a moment, so let’s cut to the chase, you must find it strange why Edward Carter refused Mr. Rieste.”
Caitlin Carter nodded blankly, indeed, not only she found it strange, everyone did.
“Because Mr. Rieste got Edward Carter’s alibi. As long as it’s proven in court that Edward Carter was on a date with his affair partner at the time of the crime, he could clear his name.”
Purple Summers rifled through the documents on the table, selected a few pages, and handed them to Caitlin Carter.
“Unfortunately, this is a secret Edward Carter would rather go to prison than reveal.”
Caitlin Carter examined the documents closely; in an instant, all color drained from her face, and she felt as if she’d fallen into an ice cave!
“He… he was with Ivy York?!” Caitlin Carter was shocked.
Purple Summers nodded: “Indeed, I originally found it odd; after all, it’s not such an unspeakable scandal. But after looking into it, I realized that your Carter Family and the York Family have been mortal enemies for generations. If this gets out, both of them would probably be disowned.”
“How could he be with Ivy York!” Caitlin Carter was also extremely furious, “He has had so many women outside, and mom and dad never said anything, but how could he touch a York woman?!”
Purple Summers shrugged helplessly, not understanding Caitlin Carter’s anger or why the ancient hatred of the previous generation continued to this day.
Hatred, like love, is hard to empathize with.
“They not only had an affair, but they also have a child,” Purple Summers added.
Caitlin Carter could no longer sit still; she clenched the documents in her hands, stood up, and trembled all over, “How could this happen…”
Then, as if suddenly realizing something, her face turned pale as paper, and with a hoarse voice, she asked, “You mean… Autumn?”
Purple Summers nodded.
Caitlin Carter seemed to lose all her strength and collapsed back into her seat, unable to utter another word.
“Aunt Caitlin, I don’t understand the feud between your two families, nor do I want to interfere too deeply. I’m telling you this because I hope you can approach Mr. Rieste and negotiate with him,” Purple Summers said.
Purple Summers really didn’t have the energy to worry about Caitlin Carter’s feelings, nor the time, and she spoke bluntly, “If you still consider Autumn your niece, then spend some money to keep Mr. Rieste’s mouth shut.”
Caitlin Carter murmured lost in thought, “Ten years ago he was studying abroad, and when he came back, he brought Autumn with him, saying she was his child with a female classmate, but we had no idea… his female classmate was Ivy York?… How could this be…”
If the truth really came to light, it would not only concern Edward Carter and Ivy York but also Autumn!
Autumn would lose everything overnight—the loving and affluent family, the prestigious young miss identity, and the grandparents who adored her, her relatives would become enemies in the blink of an eye!
For a ten-year-old child, this was unbearable!
And for the elderly couple, to find out their beloved granddaughter of ten years bore the blood of their enemy was equally unbearable!
Caitlin Carter’s mind gradually cleared, and she knew she had to find Mr. Rieste again, to buy the evidence in his possession at all costs!
Otherwise, the Carter Family would be ruined by Mr. Rieste!
Caitlin Carter was in no mood for pleasantries and stood up to hurry out, but she stopped at the door.
“If…” Caitlin Carter turned to look at Purple Summers, “If the alibi can’t be used, how… how will you win this case?”
Without the alibi, how could anyone be convinced of Edward Carter’s innocence?
Purple Summers smiled faintly, “I will win.”
