The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

"N-No...No! That's not true!!"
Shannon rattled in the iron cage, desperately struggling, and she roared ferociously at Axel, "Axel Thompson! How dare you trick
me with fabricated evidence?! As a prosecutor, how could you present fabricated evidence in court?! This is an abuse of power!
This is a breach of the law! Your evidence is invalid!"
Axel looked at her with mocking eyes, showing not a trace of fear.
Indeed, becoming a righteous prosecutor had been his lifelong aspiration. However, although using fabricated evidence came
with the risk of suspension, he had no regrets.
Even if the person seeking justice were not Bella's beloved, even if the victim was not Justin's mother, he would still have done it
without hesitation.
His duty was not just to follow the procedures but to become a beacon of justice, breaking through the overwhelming darkness at
any cost.
"Well, if you claim the evidence is fake, you're right. This bottle isn't the original one, and it doesn't have your fingerprints.
However, you confessed to the murder yourself and admitted to pushing the victim down the stairs. These are undeniable facts!
If you had nothing to hide, no matter what evidence I presented or how I tricked you, you wouldn't have revealed everything!
"Shannon, you killed someone twenty years ago. And now, as the wife of a tycoon, you can have others do your dirty work, like
hiring a hitman. While you may not get the death penalty for committing this crime, the long arm of the law will catch up with you.
Today, you must pay for what you did twenty years ago!"
Every word Axel spoke left a deep, heavy impact on everyone's hearts.
The spectators went silent, the reporters outside the courtroom were quiet, and even the comment section of the live stream on
the court's official website fell silent.
Yet, this silence was deafening.
Just then, a piercing noise came from the speakers on both sides of the courtroom ceiling.
Then, the recording Linny had risked her life to record began to play openly for all to hear.

The recording played only the most crucial parts, and everyone instantly recognized Shannon's voice. However, apart from the
Salvadors and Bella, no one could immediately identify the other voice, which belonged to Bethany.
"What's going on? How is this recording being played?!"
The police officers immediately went backstage to check, and the judges were equally astonished.
Only Clarence remained composed. As a judge, it was his duty to maintain order in the courtroom. However, he chose to stay
silent at this moment.
Drained of all strength, Shannon collapsed to her knees, her spirit utterly broken.
No matter how strong her mental fortitude was or how ruthless she was, she could not withstand this blow.
On the other side of the door, Bethany was trembling with fear, nearly biting her nails off.
"Bella, this recording... Was it you?" Justin tightly grasped Bella's small, soft hand, asking in astonishment.
Just as puzzled, Bella blinked her beautiful eyes. "It wasn't me. If I had planned something, I would've told you right away!"
Just then, her phone in her bag vibrated.
She quickly took it out and saw a message from her fourth brother, Drew.
[Little Sis, do you like the little surprise I prepared for you? (*^^*)]
Bella gasped and quickly replied. [Drew, was it you who played the recording?!]
[Who else among your brothers has
line
the skills to hack into the court's
system? Not even your man, my schoolmate, has my skills. II Hehe!]
Bella narrowed her eyes.
[Bella: Drew, are you in love?]

[Drew: In love? Heh, who still does that? Not even dogs fall for that nonsense!]
[Bella: Where did you learn how to type these cheeky emoticons then?]
[Drew: Hey, I'm just trying to lighten up the heavy atmosphere for you guys.]
Although Bella teased him, she felt warm inside.
She quickly showed Justin the chat history between her and Drew, and the two leaned their heads together intimately.
"When is Drew coming back? I have to thank him properly in person," Justin expressed his gratitude.
"Um... You scared him off with your drinking last time. So, I don't think he'll want to see you again for a while," Bella said
helplessly.
Justin chuckled bitterly. Well, he had not even fully exerted his efforts yet.
The interlude in the courtroom came to an end, and everything returned to normal.
Clarence's face was stern as he banged the gavel forcefully. "Court is adjourned for now. We will reconvene at 3:00 p.m. to
announce the verdict!"
Before Clarence left, Gregory, who was exuding a chilling aura, stood up and left without another glance.
Then, everyone he brought with him
е
stood up and left their seats. In the
blink of an eye, the once-packed
spectator seats became empty,
leaving only the Thompsons.
"Greg... That wasn't true! I didn't kill anyonel Greg!" Shannon knelt

I, crying out desperate the
toward Gregory's retreating figure.
However, all she received in response was the heavy slam of the door.
