Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth

Chapter 269 Turning Point (4)

Chapter 269 Turning Point (4)

Half an hour later, the session restarted.

Maxwell was taken to the court.

Never did he expect that his doomsday still came to him after he left Cooper Group.

After the prosecution party restated the fact, Jesse said to Maxwell, “Now you are accused of

conspiring with Dore to illegally extract private interest. Is it true about the accusation?” Hearing that,

Maxwell fell into panic.

It had been a year. How did they notice that?

He considered it a flawless plan at that time.

After he managed to help Dore run away with the money, he believed no one else could ever notice

that, for which he thought there was nothing to worry about.

Was Dore out of his mind? Why did he turn himself in?

Why did he even try to frame up Miguel?

What an idiot!

“Maxwell, please answer the question.” Jesse continued seriously.

Nervous, Maxwell still managed to collect himself.

He couldn’t help taking a few glances at Roger, who was sitting in the public gallery.

Both of them had been conspiring all these. Now he was taken to the court, but what about Roger?

Roger tried to avoid any eye contact with him.

But still, he shook his head while facing Maxwell.

Obviously, he wanted him to deny.

Maxwell struggled to calm himself down again.

Before he was about to utter, Oscar suddenly stood up, “Mr Watson, before you defend yourself, there

is something you need to be aware of. First, you have illegally signed three private contracts aiming at

bank transfers, which is clearly proven. The bank accounts. involved in those contracts were exactly

the same as those making payment for Zhang. Second, the total of bank transfers between your

account and Dore’s has been proven to be 600,000,000, which had been clearly recorded. Of course, I

don’t mean to frighten you. I am just stating the evidence against you we found. Here is my kind

reminder. Lying in the court. will only bring yourself a heavier penalty.”

Hearing that, Maxwell was obviously frightened.

He didn’t expect that they had got such crucial proof.

Of course, he knew he couldn’t simply deny that, nor could he figure out any evidence to

prove himself innocent.

Silent, he dared not make any remark.

Oscar said to the judge, “Your Honor, if the suspect refuses to talk, shall we confirm the crime he

committed?”

“If the suspect refuses to talk, his silence shall be deemed as a kind of acquiescence of his crime.” The

judge confirmed.

Oscar said to Maxwell once again, “Mr Watson, were you conspiring this commercial fraud with Dore

together?”

Gritting his own teeth, Maxwell still refused to talk.

“Mr Watson, your confession may commute your penalty. Are you sure you are gonna keep silent?”

Oscar asked again.

Maxwell suddenly nodded, “Yes, I did conspire with Dore to extract a sum of money from the Group.”

His confession jarred the public.

So it turned out that Miguel was framed up.

“Silent!” the judge hammered his gavel.

Then the air finally stayed quiet again.

“Did you embezzle all the construction fee of 600,000,000?” Oscar questioned.

“Yes, but I only took part of it. While Roger took the rest.” Maxwell didn’t hesitate to turn Roger in.

As expected, there was no true friend in the business world. The priority would always be related to

personal interest.

Oscar smiled.

Meanwhile, Roger looked greatly panic.

Actually, as soon as Maxwell confessed his own crime, Roger couldn’t help shivering. However, he

didn’t expect that Maxwell turned him in so soon.

What a ‘friendship’!

“Mr Watson, please make it clear.” Oscar still stayed composed.

“Roger has been complaining that it was Miguel who ruled the Group. So he constantly abused his

power to extract money for himself. At that time, I was in charge of the project of ‘Huatan’ Apartments.

There was one day I was dining with Roger, during which both of us decided to get ourselves a big sum

of money from the project. Then we began to conspire together.” Maxwell confessed everything.

“Your Honor, shall we have Roger, one of the suspects, present himself in the court?” Oscar reminded.

At this moment, Roger turned greatly frightened.

He hurried to explain, “No, I was set up! I knew nothing about it!”

Lorie, Wayne and Mary were all stunned by this sudden change.

How did Roger get involved?

They were here to expect Miguel’s imprisonment.

However, everything changed unexpectedly.

But still, Roger was taken to the front.

Roger then started shouting at Maxwell, “Stop talking nonsense! I have never conspired with you! Don’t

try to frame me up! Every evidence here is against both you and Dore. It has nothing to do with me.”

“I knew it! I knew you would shirk all the blame. That’s why I keep myself evidence against you! I knew

you were up for something evil when you told me to negotiate with Dore. So I have recorded our

conversation!”

“You!” Roger looked furious.

“Mr Watson, please present your evidence.” Said Oscar.

Obviously, what Maxwell got was the most critical evidence in this case.

Maxwell took out his phone. After typing passwords, he showed a video.

Oscar took it over and handed it to one of the staffs in the court.

Inside the video, Miguel and Maxwell were talking about how to embezzle all the construction fee, while

the details of which exactly accorded with Oscar’s presumption. Now the truth was revealed-it was both

Maxwell and Roger who were proven guilty. Meanwhile, Miguel was proven innocent.

The air was mixed with discussion and whispers.

Charles looked mad with his fists clenching hard.

He actually failed what was about to win.

“Suspects, any other defense to state?” the judge asked seriously.

Both Maxwell and Roger responded with silence.

“Any other questions from both lawyers?” asked the judge again.

Jesse appeared awkward.

Obviously, he failed this case.

Oscar successfully made a perfect counter back.

Jesse answered, “I have finished.”

“Your Honor, I have some supplementary questions.” Oscar suddenly stood up.

His voice sounded firm and strong.

To Hannah, she could feel a sense of security. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She felt like making Oscar handle the case was the wisest choice she had ever made.

“Any other questions?” the judge asked.

“Though both Maxwell and Roger have been clearly proven guilty, there are still a lot of doubts about

Dore.” Oscar suddenly pointed at Dore.
