Purple Summers was slightly taken aback.
She didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but it seemed like the sofa back was too tall, and the people on the other side didn’t notice her sitting there, so they just started chatting.
“He’s a newbie, his name seems to be Allen Rivera, and he only has one year of experience, you don’t have to worry too much,” said the other person.
Another woman’s delicate voice chimed in, “The second young master will be fine. We’ve hired a top-tier lawyer team. Can’t they handle a prosecutor with just one year of experience?”
As soon as they mentioned Allen Rivera, Purple Summers couldn’t help but continue to listen.
Allen Rivera was once Purple Summers’ assistant and was very meticulous and careful. He interned for one year, and Purple Summers had suggested a promotion for him. However, Allen declined, saying he wasn’t skilled enough and wanted to intern for another year before being promoted.
Purple Summers’ evaluation of him was: someone who was too serious for his own good.
The people on the other side of the sofa were still discussing the case.
Purple Summers vaguely understood that the other party seemed to be the boss of an entertainment company. His younger brother had been messing around with the actresses under the company’s banner, and not too long ago, he hooked up with a small-time model for a night of recklessness. As soon as she left, however, the model died. Suddenly, the debauched playboy became a murder suspect.
The boss was now trying to help his younger brother clear his name.
Purple Summers waited for them to finish before getting up to leave.
Jane McCain and Zara Jameson were looking for her. As soon as they saw her, they asked, “Where have you been? We looked everywhere for you!”
“I happened to overhear someone discussing a case just now and got curious so I listened for a bit,” Purple Summers shared the gossip she had overheard with her friends,”… They spent the night together, but when they woke up, the girl was dead. Don’t you think that’s weird?”
Jane McCain, understanding, said, “I know who you’re talking about. It’s the chairman of Thunderbolt Entertainment Group. His younger brother is notorious for his womanizing ways. Everyone in the circle suspects he went too far and played her to death.”
Zara Jameson didn’t quite understand. What did it mean to be too fierce in playing? Could someone be played to death?
Purple Summers had handled similar cases before and frowned slightly at the discomfort.
Jane McCain added, “I heard that the Entertainment Group has made quite a show of hiring a whole team of top-tier lawyers. There’s no suspense in this case; he’ll definitely be acquitted.”
Zara Jameson curiously asked, “What is a top-tier lawyer team?”
“It’s a collection of all the industry’s top-tier lawyers, like an NBA all-star team. They’re all top-notch players!”
Purple Summers chuckled, “One plus one doesn’t necessarily equal two. No matter how many top-tier lawyers you hire, only one will stand in the courtroom. If they encounter a tricky prosecutor, they could still be caught off guard. I think the outcome of this case is still uncertain.”
Jane McCain and Zara Jameson stared at her in surprise.
Purple Summers explained to them, “Top-tier lawyers often have a high opinion of themselves and place too much emphasis on debating skills, while neglecting the collection of evidence. In this case, the prosecutor is Allen Rivera. If they underestimate him, they could lose the lawsuit…”
Their expressions were still full of astonishment and a little stiffness.
Purple Summers felt something was off, thought for a moment, and suddenly realized it.
She immediately turned around and found the man she’d just heard conversing standing right behind her!
Oh no…
This was so embarrassing.
“I’m sorry…” Purple Summers blushed, hurriedly apologizing.
It was quite embarrassing to be caught gossiping about someone.
There was a stunningly beautiful woman beside the man, with big, wavy hair, fair skin, and red lips. She looked extremely enchanting.
She looked at Purple Summers with contempt in her eyes and a soft voice, “Pretending to know when you don’t and spreading rumors..”
