Chapter 1256: Chapter 1256
Abigail Thompson was stunned, “What?”
The suspicion in Purple Sumrs’ eyes slowly settled, eventually becoming as still as a pool of water, without a single ripple.
“Just now in the lounge, I saw you holding hands with Hans Geoffrey. At that mont, I felt a bit guilty,” Purple looked at her and said slowly, “because I saw the indentation of a ring on your finger. This ans that in the six months since Hans Geoffrey’s imprisonnt, you’ve still been wearing your wedding ring…
You know that the hope of your husband’s return is slim, yet you keep wearing the ring. How could you not have feelings for him? But I have been suspecting you of having an affair.”
Abigail Thompson slightly furrowed her delicate eyebrows.
Purple Sumrs lowered her gaze to Abigail’s slender fingers, “But if you really had feelings for your husband, why would you take off the wedding ring? I kept thinking, maybe you just forgot to wear it? But just now, I realized sothing was off.”
Purple Sumrs raised her left hand.
On her own ring finger, she wore a delicate platinum wedding ring.
“The wedding ring should be worn on the ring finger of the left hand, right?” Purple Sumrs looked at Abigail and smiled faintly, “If an ordinary person wore it on the wrong finger, it would be understandable. After all, not everyone knows this. But your family is in the jewelry business. It’s impossible that you wouldn’t know this.
Ms. Thompson, why would the indentation appear on your middle finger? What is the significance of wearing the ring on the middle finger?”
These questions had nothing to do with the case.
A subtle tension filled the courtroom; no one interrupted, not even the prosecution, who looked puzzled and did not object.
Abigail Thompson slightly furrowed her brows, clasping her hands together to cover the faint ring mark.
Purple Sumrs stood quietly in front of her and suddenly smiled.
In that smile, there was a hint of realization, a bit of ease, and a touch of wistfulness…
“Hans Geoffrey said he never t Sophia Wilson, yet Hans Geoffrey’s fingerprints were found on her ring.” Purple quietly asked her, “The ring on Sophia Wilson’s hand, it’s actually yours, isn’t it?”
The courtroom erupted in an uproar.
People were shocked, chattering noisily.
Abigail Thompson’s lips pressed tightly, unable to maintain her gentle smile.
“What are you talking about? I don’t understand…”
“No, you understand.” Purple Sumrs said, “Maybe one night, you put on the ring and had Hans Geoffrey hold your hand, then you could easily get a ring with his fingerprints. But this ring was important to you, or it had so unique significance, so you made one for yourself to wear every day, only taking it off when you go out to visit guests.”
Abigail Thompson gently shook her head, her voice soft: “There’s no evidence for what you are saying.”
“Was Hans Geoffrey joining the chat group also part of your plan?” Purple looked at her calmly, “Why is the Black Rose ring so important to you?”
Abigail Thompson said nothing.
Purple Sumrs took a step closer, staring at her intently, “Such an important ring, you must carry it with you, right? Ms. Thompson, can I check your bag?”
Abigail Thompson’s calm deanor finally cracked. She clasped the small handbag hanging on her wrist tightly, showing resistance and vigilance in her eyes!
Purple Sumrs looked at the judge, “Your honor, I request to examine the witness’s handbag.”
“You have no right to do that!” Abigail Thompson abruptly stood up.
Everyone looked at her.
Purple Sumrs replied coldly, “You switched the rings, sent the invitation to Sophia Wilson in Hans Geoffrey’s na, then gave the servants ti off and moved back to your parents’ house, all to create an opportunity for the killer! Who’s your accomplice?!”
“Nonsense! It’s all nonsense!” Abigail Thompson furiously said.
Purple Sumrs didn’t give in, “To prove your innocence, maybe you are willing to show your ring now? Whether it’s a wedding ring or the Black Rose ring, it should be obvious, right?!”
“You!…” Abigail Thompson’s expression suddenly turned pained as she bent over, clutching her swollen belly tightly!
Purple Sumrs’ face changed dramatically, “Call an ambulance! She’s going into labor!”
