Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime - Chapter 1031

Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: The Last Lawsuit of Life_1 Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: The Last Lawsuit of Life_1 Caitlin Carter was somewhat flustered on the phone, her words disjointed, leaving Purple Summers only half understanding.

—-Violet Nelson was suspected of murder and arrested by the police.

And the victim was none other than Violet Nelson’s fiance, Lysander Russell.

As for why Purple was needed, it was because Violet didn’t trust the senior lawyer Christopher Simonson had assigned to her and insisted on having Purple defend her.

Receiving such a call late at night, Purple couldn’t remain indifferent and immediately went to the police station.

The street lamps were dim, the streets pitch dark, the brightly lit police station stood out starkly in the night.

Caitlin Carter paced anxiously outside the main entrance of the police station, the night breeze bringing a chill, occasionally blowing over her deep camel-colored cashmere shawl, making the delicate fringes flutter.

Before Purple’s car had even come to a stop, Caitlin had already walked over.

“Relatives are not allowed to visit now, only lawyers can see Violet, but Violet is crying and making a scene, she says only you can get her acquitted!” Caitlin said anxiously, “The old lady has high blood pressure, she couldn’t take this news, we just sent her to the hospital!”

“Don’t worry, I’ll go see her first,” Purple said as she headed toward the police station, and while walking she asked, “What evidence does the police have, did they give a reason?”

“There’s an eyewitness, the Russell family’s servant said they saw Violet pushing Lysander Russell out of the window!” Caitlin said.

Purple’s steps faltered.

Although she had already found out the victim was Lysander Russell during the phone call, hearing it again still surprised her.

She hadn’t expected Lysander Russell to die in his own home.

…

Purple met Violet Nelson in the interrogation room.

Violet wore a horrified expression, her face pale, the hair at her temples disheveled, which made her look completely out of her wits.

At the sight of Purple, Violet’s eyes immediately reddened and, becoming emotional, she stood up: “Purple! You must save me! Everything before was my fault, I let pettiness cloud my judgment and opposed you! I beg you, you must save me! I really didn’t commit murder!”

Purple asked, “Do you know what happened?”

Tears began to stream down Violet’s face as she sobbed, “They say Lysander Russell is dead! But I really don’t know what happened, I was outside at the time!”

“Do you have an alibi?” Purple asked.

Violet, her eyes filled with tears, shook her head, “I’ve been feeling down recently, I was walking in Blossom River Forest Park at the time, there’s no surveillance footage nearby… although I did meet a few people on the road, they don’t recognize me, they might not remember my face… what should I do…”

Feeling down, was it because the attempt to smear her online failed?

Purple’s expression was indifferent as she dutifully comforted her, “Calm down first, I will apply for your bail, but it’s best if you try hard to remember whether you met anyone who can testify for you, or any evidence that can prove you weren’t there before the trial.”

Violet cried bitterly, nodding continuously.

“Purple… you have to help me, you’re the best at winning lawsuits, aren’t you? You’ve won every case, you must have a way to save me, right?” Her tears wouldn’t stop, her face full of regret, “Everything in the past was my fault, I overestimated myself, I was blind… I beg you to save me…”

“Don’t panic, I am sending someone right now to find visitors who went to the forest park today,” Purple said calmly, “Maybe we can find someone to testify for you.”

Violet’s emotions stabilized a bit, and she nodded, “Thank you.”

Purple didn’t kick her while she was down, nor did she stand by idly; she naturally agreed to defend Violet, which eased Violet’s mind and brought some peace to her heart.

Good at fighting lawsuits, eh?

Wanting to be a prosecutor, eh?

What a pity, Purple, this might be the last lawsuit of your life.

While tears flowed from Violet’s eyes, her heart overflowed with smugness.
