Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Serving You

Translator: 549690339

Having the case that had been unresolved for three years, solved by Jade Carlson, with her great contribution, made Purple Summers feel unhappy indeed.

But catching the criminal who had evaded the law was something worth celebrating.

Purple would not intentionally disrupt the judicial process due to personal grievances.

Helping Henry Jameson last time was because he had not committed a crime, and an innocent person deserved a defense.

But this time…

Purple couldn’t be sure.

“Zara, I help overturn cases with one fundamental principle,” Purple’s tone was calm and steady, “That person must be innocent; if he is guilty, no matter how much we argue, it’ll be pointless.”

Zara Jameson nodded gently: “I understand, my mom said the same thing. We don’t want to be the villains helping the wicked. But… that woman firmly believes that her son is innocent. This trust may seem blind to outsiders, but…”

She raised her eyes, looked at Purple, and sighed, “Purple, you know, when my brother had that incident…it was the same. No one believed him, everyone thought he had fooled around with a female student and had a conflict in their relationship. That’s why she turned against him. Only my parents and I believed that my brother was not that kind of person. It’s precisely because we understand the feeling of being wronged by not being trusted that my mom couldn’t bear to refuse.”

Zara felt guilty and lowered her head, asking softly, “Will it be very difficult for you?”

Purple shook her head with a smile.

There was nothing particularly difficult about it; she just needed to determine if the other party was not the real culprit of the murder case before making a decision.

“I may need to rest for a few more days. In that case, you can have them contact Prominence Law Firm first, and I will take a look at the case file tomorrow before deciding whether or not to take on this case.”

Purple was not a lawyer. To handle a case, she needed Marcel Jefferson as a bridge.

With the Jameson Family’s case, outsiders only knew that Prominence Law Firm and Officer Jackson had contributed. Only those who had a close relationship with the Jameson Family knew that there was another person involved.

Zara was torn between worrying about Purple for not taking the case and worrying about her if she did take the case.

Worrying about Purple not taking the case was because she feared that if there was any injustice, the Jameson Family would become the sinners who stood idly by.

However, if Purple took the case, Zara was afraid that Purple would be scolded and wronged.

The nature of this torture and murder case was heinous and infuriated both heaven and men. Once the suspect was exposed, everyone wanted to grind his bones and scatter the ashes. Defending the suspect at this time would undoubtedly provoke public anger.

Purple neither accepted nor declined, which oddly reassured Zara even more.

“It’s right to be cautious.” Zara nodded.

The two continued chatting for a while when Alexander Summers brought in a glass of milk, gently placing it on the bedside table, “Drink the milk before your nap.”

…It felt like he was rushing her out.

Zara felt embarrassed and stood up hesitantly, “I won’t disturb your rest. You take care of yourself, and I’ll visit you next time.”

Purple was indeed a little exhausted, so she smiled and nodded, “Alright, see you at school next week.”

After Zara left, Purple’s face fell.

“My classmate came to visit me, and you didn’t even pour a glass of water for her. You only let us chat for a few minutes before rushing her out,” she complained with frustration.

Luckily, Zara wasn’t the type to fuss about such matters; otherwise, it would have been so embarrassing, feeling terribly impolite.

Alexander glared at her, “Isn’t it enough for me to serve you? Do I have to serve your classmates too?”

Purple:

Her cheeks inexplicably grew hot, and she turned her head away, muttering softly, “Who asked you to serve.”
