A simple manslaughter case, compared to a serial murder case, is truly not worth mentioning.
However, the reason this case caught people’s attention was not so much due to the details of the case, but rather the identity of Second Young Master Graves and the lineup of top-tier lawyers.
The Graves Family is one of the four major families.
With powerful family influence and the support of top-tier lawyers, it should have been easy to clear the name of Second Young Master Graves, as the victim was just a little model with no money or power. Yet, they lost.
On the other hand, in Jade Carlson’s serial killing case, with both witness and material evidence, someone managed to overturn the case in court!
Both cases have stunning reversals and are inevitably compared, competing for headlines.
It had been a long time since Clearwater City had such interesting news topics, and now two emerged at once. For a time, almost everyone was talking about these two lawsuits.
These lively discussions did not affect Purple Summers at all.
In the blink of an eye, Monday arrived, and Purple Summers went to school as usual.
During the break, she found that many of her classmates were also paying attention to current affairs and enthusiastically discussing the recent lawsuits. However, there was more talk about the Graves Family’s lawsuit, as Second Young Master Graves was kind of a celebrity.
Jane McCain was also discussing it.
Her mother was a famous designer and had business collaborations with artists under the Thunderbolt Entertainment Group. Thus, Jane had the fortune to meet Second Young Master Graves a few times.
“He looks all decent and polite, but his private life is filthy. He’s into both men and women, and never rejects anyone. Everyone says that there’s no clean woman in their company, except for the cleaning ladies.” Jane had a very low opinion of Second Young Master Graves, “I really hope he’ll be locked up for a few years to stop him from causing harm to people.”
Zara Jameson was stunned, slowly realizing the meaning of “being into both men and women,” and her face turned a few shades paler.
Purple Summers was no stranger to the decadent lifestyle of wealthy families’ children, and she asked Jane with a smile, “Do you want him in jail for a few years? I’ll help you calculate the Criminal Law sentencing standards to see if it’s enough.”
“What’s the point of me wanting that?” Jane shrugged helplessly, “They have already appealed, and Young Master Graves will definitely get him out. After all, they are real brothers! I don’t know why the difference between them is so big…”
The conversation gradually shifted to the family’s first young master, Gavin Graves.
Jane said, “Among the younger generation of the Graves Family, he’s the most outstanding one. The next family head will definitely be Gavin Graves, without a doubt.”
Purple Summers and Gavin Graves had met before at Jane’s birthday show. Her first impression of him was good. He seemed to be a stable and powerful man.
Jane gossiped with them, “Bella Foster in the third grade always wanted to be with Gavin Graves. I heard that she once applied for the position of his mistress, but I don’t know if she succeeded or not. Tsk, tsk… I guess she didn’t succeed. If she really became Gavin Graves’ woman, she would have shown off everywhere already.”
Purple Summers was astonished, “She has both family background and talent, and is beautiful. Why would she want to be someone’s mistress?”
“Who knows? Perhaps because even without a proper social status, being Gavin Graves’ woman puts her above the rest.” Jane sneered sarcastically, “Don’t be fooled by the seemingly pure and virtuous females in this school. How many of them are actually clean? If they were really favored by the men from the four major families, they would probably not want to get out of bed, no better than the sex workers outside.”
Upon hearing this, Purple Summers’ expression became somewhat unnatural.
Jane’s gossip reminded her of her own situation, making her feel particularly uncomfortable.
Although she was forced, she did end up in Alexander Summers’ bed… and she could no longer be considered pure and virtuous…
