“And the behavioral pattern is also quite unreasonable.” Purple Summers looked at the dispirited Caspian Maple in front of her, speaking unhurriedly, “He took Nana Rowe to many places, like the streets near the kindergarten, roadside supermarkets, and the central park. It appears as if they were wandering aimlessly with a child, but if it were a serial killer, he would take the victim directly to the destination without any pointless stops.”

As Marcel Jefferson listened, his expression gradually grew solemn.

Upon analysis, Caspian Maple really didn’t seem like the killer… but if he wasn’t, then who was the killer?

“…In the previous cases, no foreign items were found with the corpses. The bindings were the victims’ own clothes or shoelaces. So why was there a jump rope this time? Because the killer thought the jump rope belonged to Nana Rowe, and inadvertently framed Caspian Maple.”

Purple Summers sat calmly opposite Caspian Maple, her brows and eyes composed, the cold light shrouding her, her delicate figure like a blooming orchid, exuding a mysterious fragrance and cold refinement. The words she spoke were striking and impactful, one by one.

Marcel Jefferson was already astounded.

He had also gone through the case files countless times, so why hadn’t he come to such a conclusion?!

Purple Summers was simply too incredible!

Caspian Maple also raised his head, looking at Purple Summers with the same astonishment.

He could already see that the person who could really help him clear his name was not the lawyer in the suit and leather shoes, but the Purple Summers in front of him!

“I don’t know what your motive is, but I guess you must be planning to kidnap Nana Rowe.” Purple Summers continued, “And during the whole process, you were hesitant and indecisive, so you took her on a roundabout route.”

Caspian Maple’s lips tightened, and his eyes filled with frustration and regret as he remained silent for a while before he finally said, “Yes, you’re right. I originally…wanted to kidnap her…”

Marcel Jefferson stared at Caspian Maple, dumbfounded.

Had she really guessed correctly?!

“But…but I had already regretted it at that time. I really didn’t kill her!” Caspian Maple’s emotions surged, his voice filled with agitation, “She cried and clamored for her parents all the way, and I felt utterly confused, so I left her behind and walked away. Later, when I worried about her, I returned to look for her, only to find that she had entered someone else’s car. I thought it was the Rowe Family who found her, so I left quickly!”

At that time, Caspian Maple had felt guilty like a thief, afraid of being discovered by the Rowe Family. He didn’t even dare to take a second glance and therefore couldn’t know the plate number of that car.

“Why did you want to kidnap Nana Rowe?” Marcel Jefferson stared wide-eyed, “Are you really short of money?”

Iris Maple was running a jewelry design company, so as her only son, Caspian Maple couldn’t possibly be short of money!

However, Caspian Maple lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, showing strong resistance to the question.

He did not want to answer.

Marcel Jefferson felt irritated, but Purple Summers didn’t care too much.

“Now, please recount the case in detail once more,” she said lightly.

In the chilling reception room, Caspian Maple let out a long sigh and began to recount what happened that day…

The visitation ended.

As Marcel Jefferson followed Purple Summers out, he still felt somewhat disoriented, his steps uncertain.

Outside, Iris Maple anxiously approached them: “Did you see my son? Did he clarify everything? He’ll be alright, won’t he?”

“Yes, he’ll be fine. You can go to the Prominence Law Firm with Marcel to sign the proxy contract,” Purple Summers said.

Iris Maple was overjoyed!

Signing a contract meant they were willing to defend Caspian Maple!

Like being lost in the dark for too long and suddenly seeing a glimmer of light ahead, Iris Maple was filled with a mix of sorrow and joy, her eyes brimming with tears, “Ms. Summers, I don’t know how to thank you! I must express my gratitude to you!”

Purple Summers smiled faintly, “Of course, hiring a lawyer requires payment, but that part will be paid to Prominence Law Firm. I don’t need any money. Ms. Maple, if you’re willing, you can promise me one thing.”
