Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 1039 She Lost_1
Chapter 1039: Chapter 1039 She Lost_1
The old lady put all her strength into that slap, and no one could stop her.
Even after she slapped Violet Nelson, her anger was not abated; her chest heaved with rage and her ears buzzed. Leaning on the table, she felt as if she couldn’t catch her breath.
She glared at Violet, her eyes round with fury, her whole body shaking violently.
Caitlin Carter hurriedly massaged the old lady’s chest, fearing she might have a serious health issue right then and there.
Violet was completely stunned by the slap.
She hadn’t seen these people during the court session and had assumed that the Simonson Family hadn’t come. Little did she know they would show up here!
What was going on?
Was this Purple Summers’ conspiracy?!
Thinking back on her words just now, Violet’s face drained of color, pale as paper.
She thought she had everything under control and, seeing Purple’s shocked and anxious expression, she felt a rush of satisfaction and arrogantly spilled everything!
It wasn’t that Violet wasn’t cautious of Purple, but since the resting room was an internal facility of the court, it was impossible for anyone to have secretly planted a listening device; and going through the security checkpoint to enter the court meant Purple couldn’t possibly bring any recording devices. As for the cell phone, when Purple was suddenly accused of inciting a witness to perjure, she angrily dragged Violet into the resting room, a process that took place right under Violet’s watchful eye—Purple never even touched her phone!
It was exactly because Violet knew it was impossible for anyone to hear her words that she was so fearless!
But who could have known it would turn out like this?
When Purple had forcefully closed the door upon entering, it was all an act; she hadn’t closed it properly, but had instead left a small gap on purpose, letting the people outside clearly hear their conversation!
Violet looked towards Christopher Simonson, whose face was the color of iron, and then at the old lady, who was grinding her teeth in fury. Her legs went weak, and she could barely stand.
Violet did have affection for the old lady, but that affection was not strong enough to overcome the hatred in her heart. When she felt aggrieved about her own shameful origins, she couldn’t remember the old lady’s kindness—she was filled with nothing but hatred!
"Grand-aunt..." Violet’s voice trembled uncontrollably, "it’s not what you think..."
"Then, how should I think?!" the old lady shouted furiously, and in her rage, she wanted to hit Violet again but her old body trembled uncontrollably, shaking so badly it was frightening.
"Madam!" Caitlin watched as veins on the old lady’s forehead bulged, scared out of her wits.
Christopher, on the other hand, felt nothing but disappointment and disgust towards his niece.
But right now, he couldn’t spare the time to reprimand Violet. Christopher quickly picked up the trembling old lady and hurriedly left, Caitlin hastily calling the driver while the bodyguard led the way, as they prepared to head to the hospital.
The resting room was again left with only Violet and Purple.
The door stood wide open, with curious onlookers occasionally peering in from the hallway.
Violet tried hard to calm herself down.
Had she lost again?...No, she hadn’t lost yet. The legal battle wasn’t over, and Purple’s suborning of a witness to commit perjury was already a confirmed fact. She hadn’t lost yet!
As long as she could get Purple sent to prison, she still had plenty of time to win the old lady over!
The scales were tipping in her favor, her advantage still held!
At that moment, Purple glanced at the time and said lightly, "The prosecutor must have figured everything out by now. It’s quite a coincidence that the café owner’s husband deposited a sum of money in their account today, and she mistakenly thought it was from me. She should have realized, how could I have wired her the money when I don’t even know her account number?"
Violet’s mind buzzed.
She stared at Purple in shock.
Purple gave her a slight smile, the expression cool and detached, "Sorry to disappoint you, but it looks like I won’t be going to prison. However, you really should worry about yourself—the sole alibi witness is now suspected of perjury and probably won’t be qualified to testify anymore."
Violet glared at the smiling face, feeling as if she had plunged into an ice cave.
She had lost!
