A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 47

Afterwards, the recording of the conversation between Audrey and Edward was played in extenso.

When the play was over, Edward looked pale.

He hadn't expected Audrey to record their conversation. At the beginning, he talked to Audrey with the simple intention of luring her into his trap. Yet the unexpected recording really caught him off guard.

Audrey handed over her hair clip and said, "Your honor, this recording can be verified by a special person to see if it is the voice of Mr. Edward and I, as well as whether there is any post-editing or processing. Furthermore ... if you don't believe me, you can also investigate the surveillance footage of the teahouse at that time to prove whether what I said is true or not."

Edward took off his glasses and wiped off the sweat from his eyes and forehead with a handkerchief.

Audrey smiled at Edward and said, "There is no evidence to prove that I used the video to blackmail Ms. Blair. On the contrary, on behalf of the defendant, Mr. Edward promised me 800, 000 yuan if I would lose this lawsuit, but I refused."

There was no need for more evidence to prove that Edward was lying.

The judge frowned and asked, "Defendant, have you instigated this?"

Undoubtedly, Blair could not wait to distance herself from this. "Your honor, I don't know anything about this," she said.

After saying that, Blair turned to look at Edward, with her eyes filled with indignation, "Mr. Edward, how can you do this?"

Edward fell silent.

Edward secretly clenched his hands, but he was unable to say a single word of rebuttal.

Audrey smiled at this scene.

"Your honor, no matter who instigated it, it can prove that I indeed have met Mr. Edward, yet I haven't blackmailed Ms. Blair with the video."

The by-standers at the scene were all discussing and accusing Edward, which made Edward extremely annoyed.

At the beginning, he had objected to Blair's idea of framing Audrey in this way. However, in order to win this lawsuit, he compromised himself. Unexpectedly ... he was caught on the spot, going for wool and coming home shorn.

"Defense lawyer, is what the plaintiff lawyer said true?"

Edward was sweating profusely and could only admit, "It's true."

Even if he refused to admit, he would fail to conceal the truth once the surveillance footage was investigated.

"Also" Audrey smiled and said, "It suddenly comes to me that I have made a backup copy of the previous video. However, I forgot to use mosaic in this one. Therefore, the mark on the defendant's body would be clear enough to prove whether the main character in this video was a substitute or not."

Blair stood up in shock, "What!!! Didn't you just say that there was no backup?"

"I forgot, but I remember now." Audrey replied calmly with a smile.

Blair became mute.

Audrey faced the two judges and said, "Your honor, I request you to permit me to use the computer I have brought with me to play the video."

The two judges exchanged glances, "Sure."

Afterwards, Audrey played the video in public.

Moreover, the physical signs of the main character in this video were also clearly exposed.

Edward had already lost the qualifications to defend Blair, so he could not say anything else at this moment.

Having watched the video, Blair began to tremble all over.

It was over! It was all over!

...

The court ended in Blair's defeat.

After the judge left, Blair sat alone in the courtroom with her mind still blank.

Zachery looked at Blair mockingly as she sat there motionlessly, and then he left the courtroom.

Zachery smiled from ear to ear after he went out.

"Ms. Audrey, you're so amazing. I once thought you were going to lose. Unexpectedly, there would be a big reversal in the end and you won all of a sudden. I saw that bitch's expression just now. How cheering! However, there are a lot of properties that can't be recovered. That's a bit of a pity."

Audrey listened absent-mindedly to Zachery's words.

She had expected to win the lawsuit.

Zachery and Blair were just two birds of a feather. Both of them got married for the sake of profit, and neither of them was nobler than the other.

What she cared about was what happened after Blair lost the lawsuit.

Blair must feel unhappy about the defeat.

Zachery and Audrey went out of the courthouse. Zachery finally dared to straighten his back and speak loudly to the media. Of course, he sighed that the court had finally shown him justice.

Afterwards, Blair also walked out.

The media swarmed around.

"Ms. Blair, We heard you lost. Is this true?"

"Ms. Blair, are you really suspected of transferring property within the marriage?"

"Ms. Blair, could you tell us why you did this? Are you worthy of your family?"

With one hand over her forehead and black sunglasses on her face, Blair lowered her head and forced her way through the squeezing crowd, walking forward in a hurry.

"Get out of my way, get out of my way. I have nothing to say. I'm wronged."

The excited crowd pointed at Blair's nose and cursed.

"You look like a bewitching vixen and as expected you really are. I can't believe that you have the gall to claim you are wrongly accused."

"That's right. The court has already ruled against you, and you're still here to gain sympathy."

"Heaven is not blind."

Blair finally managed to bull her way out of the media and the excited crowd and returned to her nanny car.

Because there were too many onlookers, Blair's nanny car was blocked for half an hour. The police of the court even turned out to evacuate the crowd so as to let Blair leave the courthouse.

After the case ended, Blair's manager Luke Hodson's phone had not stopped ringing.

Just as the car left the courthouse, Luke's phone rang again right after he hung up it.

Luke frowned, "It's from the company."

Hearing this, Blair's expression changed slightly.

Luke picked up the phone.

"Hello? Mr. Henry, Blair is next to me. We'll come back to the company soon. What? Uh ... Alright!"

After hanging up the phone, Luke looked bad.

Blair looked at Luke, frowning.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr. Henry just called me to tell you not to go back to the company. Right now, the fans are making trouble in front of the company. If you go back now, it would be very troublesome."

Blair clenched her hands tightly and bit her lower lip tightly. Her lower lip was almost bleeding.

"Zachery, what a bastard! It's all his fault. I didn't know he had such evidence."

"But still, you shouldn't keep contact with Jacob during such a sensitive period."

Blair sneered at Luke, "Are you accusing of me?"

Blair's father was the president of the Stanton Group where Luke's father worked, and Blair was his only daughter.

Luke smiled apologetically at once.

"Ms. Blair, how dare I? However, under this circumstance, we have to find a way to resolve the current crisis."

"I don't need you to remind me!"
