Chapter 914: Chapter 914 Defense Reason_1 Chapter 914: Chapter 914 Defense Reason_1 Today was the day Alexander Sumrs went to see his psychiatrist, so Purple Sumrs postponed their eting.
By four o’clock, after Alexander’s psychotherapy had ended, she and Henry Jason went to Noelle Nichols’ ho together.
Noelle Nichols’ stage na was Lina, a student at Grey’s school, who t Henry Jason at school; subsequently, to be with her, he resigned from his teaching position. However, due to her severe truancy, Noelle has yet to receive her graduation certificate.
From a young age, she was known for her sweet appearance and stunning figure, mature beyond her years, and at 11 was discovered by Sean Patterson to model for teen magazine print ads. Later, she dabbled in acting and singing, but her real rise to fa ca when she ford a girl group with another girl called “Angelina,” and since then, garnered countless fans.
However, the popularity of star idols is always in flux, and recently the fanbase for the Angelina girl group had slightly declined.
Noelle wished to retire at the peak of her career rather than gradually fading from her fans’ mories, but her decision was t with strong opposition from Sean Patterson.
After all, having worked together for many years, Sean Patterson wasn’t just a manager to Noelle but a friend and family mber as well; Noelle valued his opinions deeply.
She insisted on marrying Henry Jason. The day before the wedding, she couldn’t keep her composure, so she went with Henry to Sean Patterson’s house, hoping he would understand her and bless her marriage.
It turned out just as Henry had described—they had a big fight.
When Purple t with her, Noelle’s account was essentially no different from Henry’s.
After so thought, Purple asked her, “Ms. Nichols, could you share what you argued about? I an… in more detail. The words Sean said at that ti, his tone, deanor, was there anything special about it?”
Noelle looked haggard as she replied in a low voice, “Sean… he said many insulting things. Henry got very angry and ran out. I chased after Henry, and Sean said… said that if I dared to walk out that door, he would make regret it for the rest of my life.”
“Do you think he would make you regret it for the rest of your life?” Purple asked.
Noelle bit her lower lip, hesitating and looking towards Henry Jason.
Purple waited for a while, then asked again, “Do you think he would use his own death to punish you? Ms. Nichols, the prosecutor will ask this question during the court session next week too.”
Noelle lowered her head again, and after a long pause, she uttered two words: “Video.”
A flicker of doubt crossed Henry’s eyes.
Purple and Austin Ross were also surprised, “What video?”
Noelle’s complexion grew paler, her voice trembling, “He has so… intimate videos of .”
Everyone’s expression changed.
Especially Henry Jason, who looked at Noelle incredulously, speechless for a long mont.
And Noelle, anticipating his reaction, explained with tearful eyes, “It was with my ex-boyfriend. Since everyone was in the industry, Sean said it was better to film it so that if we fought and broke up, I’d have the video and the other party would also be concerned.”
Sean Patterson had always been looking out for Noelle’s best interests, and she followed his advice.
Austin Ross couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Nichols, as far as I know, stars generally aren’t allowed to date, are they?”
“Sean never stopped from dating. He said it’s important to maintain good relationships with directors, investors, and male actors—a bit of flirtation wasn’t a problem. Filming the video was just a precaution, so if things turned sour later, the other party wouldn’t speak ill of . It’s not uncommon in our circle; couples break up, suddenly there are accusations of cheating, followed by plumting popularity… We never intended to blackmail anyone, it was really just for self-protection…”
As tears rolled down from her eyes, Noelle sobbed, “I didn’t commit murder…”
Purple looked at Austin with resignation, “If the prosecution finds those videos, our defense based on suicide might not hold up.”
Austin’s expression was grave.
