Chapter 566: Chapter 566 The Real Mystery_1
Allen Rivera brought a gift, and Purple Summers thanked him quickly, inviting him to come in and sit together.
It wasn’t long before the others arrived, one after another, each bringing celebratory gifts for Purple Summers, which piled up like a small mountain on the table.
Upon seeing Allen Rivera, Marcel Jefferson warmly came over to greet him, saying, “I thought you wouldn’t have the time to come…”
That’s when Purple Summers realized that it was Marcel Jefferson who had “leaked the information.”
But it didn’t really matter, having one more person just added to the merriment. Although Allen Rivera had shown up uninvited, Purple Summers was in a good mood that day and was more than happy to entertain him.
A table of friends, all from different professions and of varying ages— it was indeed a curiosity that they could sit together for a meal.
The attendant began to set the dishes on the table one by one, opened the wine, and after a few glasses, the atmosphere around the table gradually shifted from distant to warm.
Jane McCain said with a laugh, “Police, lawyers, prosecutors—everyone at this table is accounted for! Now we just need a judge. Purple, once you graduate from the Judicial Training Institute, you could be a female judge, how prestigious that would be!”
“I don’t want to be a judge,” Purple Summers said with a smile, clinking glasses with Jane McCain, “Sitting there to decide on outcomes is too boring. I want to be a prosecutor.”
“Being a prosecutor is great. Later on, you can be like Suzanne Saunders,” Zara Jameson chimed in, “My mom admires Suzanne the most.”
Hearing this, Jane McCain curiously asked Allen Rivera, “Are there really no female prosecutors in the Clearwater City Prosecutor’s Office, besides the famous Suzanne Saunders?”
“Of course there are, just not many, and even fewer that are good,” Allen Rivera said, looking towards Purple Summers, smiling, “In terms of seniority, if you join the Prosecutor’s Office, you’ll likely be assigned under me and become my assistant.”
Aria Jackson, who was silently drinking: “Pfft!…”
Indeed, how the tide turns.
Purple Summers laughed, “You all have too much confidence in me! The judicial examination hasn’t even started. I might not pass it!”
Everyone said in unison, “No—way!”
Purple Summers couldn’t help it and burst into laughter.
Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate her.
Purple Summers was so happy, she drank glass after glass, gradually becoming tipsy.
Everyone chatted noisily, and Marcel Jefferson talked about his recent experiences.
“The cases I used to take on were trivial disputes. After working on a few big cases with Purple Summers, our law firm became quite renowned, and suddenly we got many bizarre cases…”
His words piqued everyone’s curiosity, and they asked what kind of cases he was talking about.
“There was this guy who got bitten by a dog while walking in his community, and he wanted to sue the property management for inaction,” Marcel Jefferson said mysteriously.
“What’s so bizarre about that?” everyone wondered.
Marcel Jefferson explained, “The twist is, the dog was his own! He fought with his own dog in the community, got bitten, and what could I do? I’m also helpless!”
Everybody burst out laughing.
Marcel Jefferson went on, “Then there was this old lady who fell and broke a bone at the subway station, and she wanted to sue the cleaner there.”
Trying to hold back her laughter, Purple Summers asked, “What was the reason this time?”
“She littered indiscriminately, even after being advised by the cleaner not to do so. Eventually, she slipped on a peel of the fruit she had thrown and fell! Instead, she blamed the cleaner for not sweeping in time!”
Laughing even harder, everyone was almost falling over.
With tears of laughter, Jane McCain exclaimed, “Mr. Jefferson! If you can win such cases, you could definitely become the top genius in the industry!”
“I dare not accept such praise,” Marcel Jefferson said modestly, “All thanks to Prosecutor Allen Rivera, who gave me a lot of advice! He helped me through many difficulties!”
Ever since the last case, Marcel Jefferson and Allen Rivera had developed a profound camaraderie.
Marcel Jefferson continued, “Hey, Allen, weren’t you saying that you had a case you wanted to ask Purple Summers for help with? Now’s the perfect time to talk about it, let everyone have a glimpse.”
Not waiting for Allen Rivera to speak, Marcel Jefferson first cast a mysterious glance around the room, hyping up the crowd for Allen Rivera, “Listen up, everyone, listen well, because the truly bizarre case is coming——”
