The news of the court victory immediately spread across the entire internet.
It also reached the Presidential Palace.
“We won?” Old Master Simonson looked at the news in shock, unable to believe it, “Did Purple Summers do it all by herself?”
Indeed, it was very clear on the news photos that there was only Purple Summers at the defense table, no deputy, no assistant, just her alone.
The Old Lady was also puzzled, “How is it possible? The Carter Family’s lawsuit was lost twice, how could this little girl be better than a top lawyer?”
Both were baffled and wanted to ask Purple Summers for a clear explanation. When they called her, they learned she had been invited over by the Carter Family, and Caitlin Carter hadn’t come back either.
By dinner time, when they called again, they were told that Purple’s friends from Clearwater were helping her celebrate, and the party was unlikely to end before midnight.
Caitlin Carter, however, had returned.
But she had arrived at the courthouse only towards the end of the court hearing and was not clear about the specifics. Old Master Simonson and the Old Lady couldn’t get answers from Caitlin Carter’s mouth and grew more curious, unable to comprehend how Purple Summers managed it.
“What girl stays out playing till midnight and doesn’t come home,” muttered the Old Lady, “not fearing any danger, with the world being so chaotic these days.”
In the past, Caitlin Carter would feel annoyed at the Old Lady’s complaints, but today nothing could dampen her good mood, and she immediately replied with a smile, “Her friends rarely come to Kingsley, and one of them is even a police officer, so there will be no trouble. Besides, isn’t there a bodyguard with her?”
The Old Lady’s grumbling was purely habitual, a character developed over years of habit, making her instinctively pick and complain no matter the situation, sometimes just for the sake of complaining and not out of genuine anger.
After all, Purple Summers had won the case, indirectly helping Christopher Simonson. The Old Lady was actually in a good mood; hearing Caitlin Carter’s explanation, she just pursed her lips and said no more.
Purple Summers did indeed play until past midnight before returning.
She had been up so late that she couldn’t get up for breakfast the next morning.
The whole family was waiting at the dining table, wanting to ask Purple Summers what exactly happened yesterday when she came down for breakfast, only for her to sleep right through the morning?
The Old Lady spoke with a trace of sourness, “How can she sleep through such a big event, she has such a carefree heart…”
At that moment, a servant came over and said that Mr. and Mrs. Carter Senior had arrived.
As they were the in-laws, Christopher Simonson naturally went to greet them, and the housekeeper immediately arranged for servants to prepare tea and pastries.
The entire Carter Family had come, both Edward Carter and Autumn Carter were there, and Autumn Carter, being quite at home, grabbed candies from the coffee table to eat. Seeing Old Master Simonson and the Old Lady approach, she immediately greeted them sweetly, “Grandpa, Grandma, hello!”
The Old Lady’s heart immediately melted, what an adorable little girl, such a pity she wasn’t her own granddaughter!
The Carter Family had brought many gifts, as they had come to express their gratitude to Purple Summers.
Caitlin Carter said with a smile, “Dad, Mom, you came too early; Purple stayed up all night with friends and is still sleeping.”
“Why don’t you go and wake Ms. Summers up right away?” the Old Lady said to a nearby servant.
Mr. and Mrs. Carter Senior hastily gestured, “No need, no need! Let Ms. Summers rest! She has taken a lot of trouble for Edward’s situation, she deserves to rest…”
Their tone was quite respectful.
Old Master Simonson said politely with a smile, “You are the elders; it’s not right for the elders to wait for the junior.”
“It’s alright, we just wanted to personally express our gratitude, we wouldn’t dream of disturbing Ms. Summers’ rest.”
Seeing both sides stick to their opinions, Caitlin Carter said with a laugh, “How about I go upstairs and check? Who knows, maybe Purple is already awake.”
