A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 46

The next morning.

The court was held again to solve the divorce lawsuit between Zachery and Blair.

At six o'clock in the morning, Blair posted a Twitter, "I believe the law is fair, and I will definitely get the justice that I deserve."

After the session last Friday, a lot of news was saying that it was Blair who cheated first. Many netizens questioned the authenticity of the news.

After Blair posted that Twitter, netizens all believed her.

Moreover, cheating in marriage was something that onlookers hated the most. Blair was the weak one in their eyes.

In the morning, Audrey went through the discharge formalities as soon as the doctors and nurses came to the hospital. Then she rushed towards the court.

The session would begin at nine o'clock.

It was only two minutes to nine.

In the court, all the seats were filled except the one for the prosecution lawyer.

The two judges also took their seats.

Seeing that the session was about to begin, Zachery was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat since Audrey didn't arrive yet.

Ten minutes ago, he called Audrey and she said that she would be arriving soon, but now, the session would begin in two minutes, and she still didn't show up.

In the morning, Blair suddenly posted a vague Twitter, which had already made netizens to curse him. He presumed that Blair was definitely be fully prepared today. If Audrey was not here, how could he deal with Blair's attack?

Before coming to the court today, he had heard that Audrey had met with Blair's attorney yesterday. Could it be that Edward had said something to scare Audrey, so that she didn't dare to come?

Blair sat on the dock in high spirits and proudly looked at Zachery who was sitting opposite her.

"Zachery, what's wrong with you? Your lawyer hasn't arrived yet. Is she afraid and does she dare not to come?"

"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Zachery replied with disdain.

"Then, why hasn't she come yet? Zachery, I'm warning you. It's best for us to settle out of court. Otherwise, you won't get anything."

"Impossible!" Zachery clenched his fists, and blue veins stood out on his forehead.

Blair had cuckolded him when she married him. It was not a matter of losing money, but he could not bear it that he had been laughed at by others because of Blair's cheating.

"Hah, your lawyer isn't here. How are you going to win?"

Zachery trembled with anger.

Time passed by quickly, and there were only more than ten seconds before the session started. If Audrey did not come...

When there was only ten seconds left, a figure appeared outside the courtroom.

She walked into the courtroom out of breath and apologized to the two judges in the bench, "Sorry, Your Honor, I'm late."

"It doesn't matter. Please take your seat!"

Audrey hurriedly sat on the defender's seat, and then the door of the courtroom was closed.

Seeing Audrey appear, Blair snorted with ridicule.

It was just an episode before Zachery's lost. She didn't take it seriously.

After Audrey sat down, the judge proclaimed the beginning.

Next, there was the tedious narrative of the case and the examination of the evidence.

Then, the staff of the court took out the evidence that had been handed over last time. Just as the staff was about to play the video, there was a sentence saying that the USB was damaged and the video could not be played.

Zachery stood up in shock when he saw the words "USB Damaged" on the screen.

"How can the USB be damaged? Someone must have destroyed it!" Zachery immediately questioned this.

"The USB has been kept in the safe for a long time. Each of the two judges has a key and they have just taken out the key. Before that, no one can open the safe." The person who guarded the evidence said in panic.

Neither of the judges looked good.

What Zachery said indicated that they had been bribed.

However, Audrey was well aware of all this.

It was impossible for the two judges to be bribed. The safe had indeed been opened just now, so it was impossible to make a fake USB. So if something was wrong here, it could only be the computer.

The computer should be implanted with a virus that could destroy the USB.

Hah, so tricky.

Judge A, "Plaintiff, do you have a copy of this USB?"

Zachery looked at Audrey, who replied calmly, "No!"

Hearing Audrey's reply, Blair revealed a slight smile.

When Zachery heard this, he was shocked, "What? You actually didn't make a copy as a backup?"

If that evidence was damaged, it meant they lost an important evidence to accuse of Blair.

Blair said with tears flowing down her face, "Your Honor, there was something wrong with the video that the plaintiff handed over earlier. The woman in the video was not me. They deliberately asked someone to impersonate me in order to slander me."

"Your Honor, the prosecution lawyer met me yesterday afternoon. She blackmailed my client for 200, 000 in exchange for the video. I don't think the prosecution lawyer is qualified to stand in a solemn court and perform her duties as a lawyer!" Edward stood up at this time.

Edward took out another photo.

"Your Honor, this is a picture of us sitting in a teahouse. And it was accidentally took by a nearby photographer."

Zachery looked at Audrey in disbelief.

However, Audrey was still sitting there calmly, unaffected by Edward's words.

On the picture, "800, 000" could clearly be seen.

The judge took the photo from Edward and his expression darkened.

"Prosecution lawyer, may I know what explanation you have?"

Audrey chuckled.

"Well, defense lawyer, have you forgotten that there's something called 'recording" in this world?"

Audrey took out her mobile phone with a smile. "I did meet lawyer Edward yesterday. However, it was Edward who asked me to meet him. After I answered his phone, I accidentally recorded our conversation."

Audrey turned on her phone and opened a recording file.

Edward's voice came from it.

Edward's expression did not change.

"I'm calling you because you called me earlier. I'm just showing my politeness and I want to make an appointment with you."

Audrey smiled and took out a cherry-shaped hairpin from her pocket. It was exactly the hairpin that she wore when she met Blair.

Seeing the hairpin, Edward frowned.

Audrey smiled. "Edward, when I was talking with you, I deliberately touched my phone to show you that I didn't record our conversation, but...."

Afterwards, Audrey pressed the cherry on the hairpin, and Edward's voice just came out from it.

"Who would have thought that the eloquent Audrey Koch is such a young beauty."

Hearing this, Edward was totally shocked.

That hairpin was actually a recording device.
