Purple Summers received a call from Aria Jackson in the car.
âYou were spot on!â Ariaâs voice trembled with excitement, âHenry Jamesonâs sperm really was on that thing! The girls in forensics also found another womanâs secretions, Chloe Bennett is finally out of excuses!â
âIs that so, thatâs great.â Purple spoke with a lack of enthusiasm.
Aria was taken aback, and asked her, âWhatâs wrong?â
âIâm fineâ¦â Purple said depressively. She couldnât describe the feeling of being manipulated and feeling so helpless.
This time Alexander graciously spared her, but what about next time? And the time after that?
That man had no principles, she knew that one day, he would lure her into his bed and ravish her, just as he did with those other women.
Purple felt a bleak future ahead of her.
âLetâs meet with Chloe Bennett.â Purple pressed her temples, attempting to distract herself, âLet Marcel pretend to be Henryâs defense attorney and set up a meeting with her, you should also go and bring the forensics evidence.â
Aria was surprised: âNot going to court?â
âIt would be best to handle this out of court.â Purple explained, âHenryâs been hiding something from us, if the opposing lawyer digs it up, even if we win the case, the Jameson Familyâs reputation will be tarnished.â
âI seeâ¦â
They decided on a meeting location. Instead of going home, Purple asked Zack Wallace to drive her to the meeting place.
On the way, Marcel Jefferson called.
He seemed to be caught off guard, his voice trembling, âSis, do we need to confront her now? I wasnât able to find out the account name because the sellers said it violated the buyerâs privacyâ¦â
Marcel was very embarrassed. He had confidently asserted that he would be able to find it, but when he actually started the investigation, he got nowhere.
His face flushed with humiliation.
Purple told him: âItâs okay, Iâve found it.â
Marcel, bewildered, responded, âWhat???â
Purple hung up the phone.
The meeting was set at a tea shop near the community where Chloe Bennett lived.
Chloe Bennett did not initially want to meet, but when she heard that an officer was going to be there, she reluctantly agreed to attend. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Purple ordered a red bean pudding milk tea and began sipping it leisurely at the entrance of the tea shop.
Marcel also held a cup of milk tea, though not for himself, it was for his cousin.
He asked Purple, âSharll we not go in?â
Purple replied, âYou can go in if you want.â
âWhat about you?â
âIâm too young, it wonât be much use if I do.â Purple bit the straw, looking through the glass window with a blank expression. âHaving Officer Jackson taking action is enough.â
Purple was aware, she was still just a child and it was better left to the adults who can coerce, usually resulting in a better outcome.
Thatâs a matter of specialization.
Marcel peeked into the glass window, seeing her cousin inside fiercely slamming her hand on the table and throwing documents around, he couldnât help feeling scared.
That was truly terrifyingâ¦
Inside the tea shop, Chloe Bennettâs face paled and reddened. Tears welled up in her vividly distinct eyes and finally, she could no longer hold back her tears and ran out of the shop, sobbing uncontrollably.
Marcel immediately ran inside, saying, âCousin, you made her cry!â
Aria, her face pale with unresolved anger, spat out, âWhat did I say to her? I just asked why Henryâs and another womanâs were on that thing, whether itâs a rape or a, a threesome!â
Marcel shook his head incessantly, âCousin, youâre too harsh. Sheâs just a delicate young girl. Arenât you scared that she might commit suicide when she gets home? Thatâs a young life at stake!â
âItâs my fault?â Aria sneered, âIâm helping her, sheâll thank me when she grows up!â
Purple interrupted the siblings, asking Aria, âDid Chloe Bennett agree to turn herself in?â
