Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Losing the Appraisal Report

Translator: 549690339

Marcel Jefferson said that he wanted Robin Harper to testify in court.

After his words were spoken, the court hearing fell silent, and various strange looks were cast at him, filled with curiosity.

Even the prosecutor Allen Rivera, looked at him doubtfully.

The judge reminded him, “Defense lawyer, you should know that Robin Harper is involved in perjury, so his testimony may not be accepted by the court.”

“Yes, I know.” Marcel Jefferson was calm and composed. “Our side has found new clues to the case and needs Mr. Robin Harper’s verification. Therefore, we request the court to allow Mr. Robin Harper to testify.”

Upon hearing this, the judge nodded his head, “Please summon the witness, Robin Harper, to testify.”

Jade Carlson’s mouth curled slightly, revealing an almost imperceptible smile.

She thought that Purple Summers had come to a dead-end and wanted to use the same old trick to turn the witness into the murderer.

Ever since the news reported that Second Young Master Graves’ case was taken over by Prominence Law Firm, Jade knew that Purple Summers was definitely involved.

She secretly followed Marcel Jefferson and found that he had gone to a pet boarding center, and then to a highly qualified appraisal center. Jade Carlson connected the dots and guessed most of the plan.

— Purple Summers wanted to turn the tide with an appraisal report.

But how could Jade let her succeed? This was Second Young Master Graves’ case. If she won it, she would be seen favorably by Young Master Graves. Who knows, maybe Young Master Graves would take note of her and she could enjoy wealth and glory!

How could such a good opportunity go to Purple Summers?!

So Jade Carlson found someone to wait at the courthouse door, ready to snatch the appraisal report.

Discard it, destroy it, whatever. Just don’t let Purple Summers get that report!

Once Purple Summers loses the case, she would lose credibility in front of Young Master Graves, and Furthermore, Second Young Master Graves would blame her! Graves Corporation can disband a top-tier lawyer team, much less a small Prominence Law Firm? They might be suppressed into obscurity and unable to make any waves!

By then, what would be left to fear from Purple Summers?

Jade Carlson wanted to applaud her own cleverness!

With just a casual move, she could completely defeat Purple Summers!

…However, if Allen Rivera actually won the case, it would also offend Graves Corporation. She had to find a way to detach herself from the matter.

With a flicker of thought, Jade’s smile grew deeper.

She could use the clues that Purple Summers found to curry favor with Young Master Graves! As long as she could get Young Master Graves’ support, who in Clearwater would dare to belittle her?

Joy overflowed from Jade Carlson’s eyes and her face seemed to be coated with a faint radiance, making her look extremely spirited.

At this moment, Robin Harper took the stand again as a witness.

Marcel Jefferson didn’t rush into questioning. He carefully read the text on the computer twice, then took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

“Mr. Robin Harper, during the last court hearing, you claimed that you saw Ms. Delilah White sit up on the bed through the glass window. However, the prosecutor believes that under the weather conditions at the time, it was impossible for you to see inside the opposite room. Now, do you still insist on your point of view?” Marcel Jefferson asked.

Robin Harper replied, “Yes, I saw it.”

Marcel Jefferson asked again, “Assuming you did indeed see it, then, according to you, Delilah White sat up for a while, and then lay down again. How did you determine that she was asleep and not unconscious? Mr. Robin Harper, did you see the expression on Delilah White’s face at the time?”

Robin Harper answered, “She was lying face down, I didn’t see it.”

“That’s strange.” Marcel Jefferson touched his chin, “The victim was indeed found lying face down. But prosecutor Allen Rivera said that under those lighting conditions at the time, it was impossible for you to see inside the room. If that’s the case, how did you know Delilah White was lying face down? Could it be… you were inside the room at the time?”
