Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime

Chapter 321: 321: Misunderstanding Exists

Translator: 549690339

Jade Carlson was startled to see Allen Rivera all of a sudden—her nerves were on edge.

She immediately reached out to try and grab the report but the man across from her was quicker. He passed the file onto Allen Rivera with a quick swing of his hand.

“Are you in charge here? I want to file a complaint!” The man shamelessly caused a scene, pointing at Jade, “This woman doesn’t keep her word, she said that as long as I got this judgment report, she would pay me. But now she’s acting like she doesn’t even know me and refusing to pay!”

“I didn’t!” Tears welled up in Jade’s eyes as she looked towards Allen, “I genuinely do not know him, I have no idea why he’s saying these things to ruin me!”

Unfortunately, Allen was indifferent to Jade’s tears; he focused solely on the report in his hands.

It was a DNA comparison report of cat hair.

The report stated it clearly—cat hair was found on the handkerchief. After testing, the DNA completely matched the chinchilla cat raised by Robin Harper.

If Marcel Jefferson presented this evidence back then, there would have been no need to trap Robin with precarious tactics during the court hearing.

Allen thought back to Marcel’s apparent distress during the trial, realizing that it was probably due to this…

The man continued to complain to Jade, “I’m telling you, you can’t ditch this debt. Pay up! Pay up now!”

Constant glances from onlookers from all around made Jade wish she could shut this man up!

At this moment, Allen spoke, “If you want to collect a debt, please make a lawsuit in court, or directly contact the police. If you want to complain, turn left — a staff member there will assist you.”

His voice was cold and there was no trace of expression on his face. He put the report away and continued, “You can continue creating a scene here, but I will arrest you for obstructing justice. You will be detained for anywhere between seven to twenty days according to relevant regulations.”

The man realized he met his match, and seeing the surrounding security guards watching like tigers, he left.

Jade exhaled heavily, looking to Allen with gratitude. “Thank you…”

“Don’t thank me, I was not helping you. I just didn’t want him to disturb everyone else’s work.”

Allen’s cold demeanor and refusal to grant any allowances left Jade feeling humiliated, she could even feel the mocking glances from those nearby.

“Can you tell me why you did this?” Allen asked her, “What good does it do for you?”

Jade denied outright, “He’s slandering me, I really didn’t tell him to take the report.”

“You made a phone call before the trial. I saw it.” Allen responded lightly, “Were you planning this then? This behavior obstructs judicial fairness, I can apply to search your communication records.”

Jade instinctively held the pocket of her jacket where her phone was, her eyes flickering. It revealed her panic.

“I… I did it for your best interest.” Jade’s voice was barely heard, nothing short of wronged, “How could someone like Gerald Graves be acquitted? I… I did it to help you win the case…”

“Did you misunderstand something?” Allen interrupted her coldly, “Jade Carlson, do you know who you are?”

Jade looked up at him, puzzled.

“You are an intern prosecutor, you will become a prosecutor. A prosecutor’s job is not to win a case, it seems like you have a deep misunderstanding about this role.”

Allen looked down at the report in his hand and stated flatly, “Jade, I don’t think you’re suited for this job anymore.”

After saying this, he turned and left.

Jade stood in place, stunned. After snapping back to reality, her back was wet from cold sweat!

What did Allen mean by that? He…he wanted to transfer her?!

No!

She had been demoted from a prosecutor to an intern already; if she faced disciplinary action again, she won’t be able to stay in the Prosecutor’s Office any longer!
