Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 194 - : Deviation

Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Deviation

Dylan Summers’ deliberate concealment, regardless of the reason, was ill-intentioned.

More likely, he wanted to hold Jade Carlson’s weak spot and wait for an opportunity to strike later?

Aria Jackson and Purple Summers said goodbye to Mrs. Jameson and left the Jameson Family home.

Purple walked silently behind Aria with her head down, her face pale.

Feeling worried for her, Aria stopped at a coffee shop they came across and bought her a cup of coffee.

“Are you alright?” Aria asked with concern.

Purple shook her head lightly and cradled the cup of hot coffee, blowing on it to cool it down.

“I just didn’t expect…”

She never expected that she would fall into Jade Carlson’s hands.

She had always thought herself clever and alert, but now she was feeling the irony of being outsmarted by a junior assistant, losing her love and her life in the process.

“Everyone makes mistakes. Besides, at that time we were working on a big case, so we didn’t have the energy to pay attention to Jade Carlson,” Aria comforted her.

Suzanne Saunders had several assistants, and in the predominantly male Prosecutor’s Office, Jade was the only female assistant under Suzanne.

Although her work abilities were mediocre, she was given certain tasks by Suzanne because they were both women.

Perhaps because of this, it created an illusion for Nathaniel that Jade was Suzanne’s competent assistant and close female friend.

Purple took small sips of her coffee, letting the bitterness spread over her tongue, feeling lost inside her heart.

If her former life had been full of pain and heartache, she would welcome death as a release.

But she had lived such a glorious life!

A beautiful and intelligent goddess of justice, many people envied her. She loved her work and enjoyed her life! Even with a jerk of a husband like Nathaniel, it didn’t matter; she could always get a divorce! After the divorce, her life would still be smooth sailing!

The sudden arrival of death severed all of this!

She had lost everything.

Her identity, wealth, reputation, friends… She had to start everything over from scratch and bear a blood debt!

The white steam from the hot coffee lingered, making Purple’s face hidden and indistinct behind the mist.

She was unwilling to accept it.

Aria was also deep in thought.

“We can’t just ask her directly. Even with the video, she could come up with any excuse…” Aria contemplated, saying in a low tone, “First, we’ll look into her online shopping records, and ask around about her at the pharmacies near her home.”

Aria asked Purple, “Do you remember the drink you had that day? Was there any strange taste or… was the color of the drink abnormal?”

Purple shook her head, looking baffled.

“No…”

That day was their wedding anniversary. Guests brought gifts and blessings, and the atmosphere was lively. She was in a good mood herself.

She was busy socializing and hadn’t noticed any issues with her drink.

“It must have been tasteless and odorless, or the smell could be easily masked by the drink. Otherwise, you would have noticed,” Aria commented.

“I did feel a bit dizzy at the time, but didn’t think much of it. You know I can’t handle liquor well. I get drunk after just a little bit…”

Purple recalled the events of that day: a bustling party, with Jade handing her a drink and telling her that Nathaniel had prepared a surprise gift for her to be found at the bow of the boat alone.

As she headed towards the bow, she encountered some guests along the way, exchanging drinks and taking a few sips.

As for the taste of the drink, she couldn’t remember.

Later, she reached the bow and found no one there. Thinking she had arrived early, she didn’t worry. Leaning against the railing, she drank while admiring the river view at night…

Purple pondered for a while.

“Under the influence of the drug, my judgment may have been skewed… I only assumed the killer was a man because of the strong force I felt when being pushed. But now that I think about it, if I was feeling dizzy, a woman’s strength would have been enough to push me off the boat as well….”
