Chapter 913: Chapter 913: The Lawyer’s Cunning_1 Chapter 913: Chapter 913: The Lawyer’s Cunning_1 Although Purple Sumrs was temporarily acting as a lawyer, she approached each case with the mindset of a prosecutor.
Therefore, she might not be as diligent as other lawyers, but she would definitely not ignore any injustice.
Moreover, Henry Jason was Zara Jason’s brother, and she should help him.
…
At seven o’clock in the morning, while Purple Sumrs was still in dreamland, Austin Ross had scanned the autopsy report and sent it to Purple Sumrs’ email, along with the preliminary investigation results from the police.
Austin Ross was, undoubtedly, a very serious and responsible lawyer.
The autopsy report was detailed and included photos of the deceased.
As she read the report while having breakfast, Purple Sumrs couldn’t feel any better.
Actually, there was nothing much to see, lacking valuable clues—there were no external injuries, no suspicious bruises, and the cause of death by drowning due to sleeping pills was unquestionable.
Purple Sumrs set all the material aside and continued with her breakfast.
Before long, Austin Ross made a phone call, politely and quickly saying, “Ms. Simonson, the court hearing is starting next week, should we arrange a eting? Let the two parties talk about the situation at the ti of the incident, exchange so information… Of course, the most important thing is that we need to decide on a defense strategy, as the situation is very unfavorable for us right now.”
“Mm, alright,” Purple Sumrs glanced at the wall clock, “but I’m busy this afternoon, how about after four o’clock?”
“That’s fine, that’s fine, in fact, later is better. Ms. Nichols’ house is already besieged by reporters, leaving later might be more discreet.”
With that settled, they agreed to contact each other again at four.
Alexander Sumrs asked her, “Is the opposing lawyer reliable?”
During the court hearing, the presence of two lawyers was imperative, focusing not only on individual capabilities but also on cooperation with one another. If one had an incompetent team mber, it would be quite frustrating, which was why Alexander was asking her this.
Purple Sumrs cocked her head and smiled, “He’s alright, apart from speaking a bit fast and being sowhat talkative… well, he’s not bad.”
After breakfast, Purple Sumrs went for a walk in the garden with Alexander Sumrs, and they took the opportunity to walk their snake.
Tiny and its large family followed beside them, with a few trying to stand on Cleo. However, as Cleo wound its way along, the crows would never stay balanced and would fall off, only to jump back on again, stopping and starting like they were on a bus.
It seed they were quite satisfied with their new environnt.
Purple Sumrs thought that if she raised a few fish in the front yard fountain, they might be even more pleased.
At noon, Purple Sumrs received another call from Austin Ross.
“Ms. Simonson, the situation is not looking good, Ms. Nichols’ house is completely surrounded! There’s no way out! Could we possibly change the eting location to Ms. Nichols’ house? I know this might be sowhat unfair to Mr. Jason, but Ms. Nichols really can’t leave with reporters encircling the place! Oh my, these people are insane…”
Purple Sumrs replied, “No worries, Henry and I will be there on ti.”
The voice over the phone was a bit raised, and Alexander also heard it.
After hanging up, Alexander asked Purple Sumrs, “Why would it be unfair to Henry?”
“Because the charge is conspiracy to murder,” Purple Sumrs shrugged helplessly, “In a conspiracy, there’s usually a mastermind and an accomplice. If reporters capture Henry actively seeking out Noelle Nichols, it would give the impression that Henry was inciting Noelle Nichols to commit the cri, which would be bad for him in the court of public opinion.”
Alexander furrowed his brows upon hearing this, slightly annoyed, “This lawyer is quite shrewd.”
“It doesn’t matter,” Purple Sumrs smiled lightly, “Since it’s a collaboration, soone has to compromise. Besides, whether we have this eting or not, the reporters won’t go easy when they write their stories.”
