A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 71

Sitting beside Audrey, Luis's face was already ashen.

His eyes were dull, and his lips trembled slightly.

"It's over. It's all over."

In Luis's eyes, He had been sentenced to lose the case. No matter what Audrey said, it was impossible for him to retrieve the situation.

With Edison around, no evidence could change the outcome.

Audrey listened to Luis's words and looked at him with a comforting smile.

For some reason, Audrey's smile gave Luis hope again. It was as if Audrey could turn the table.

But was it possible to change the outcome at this point?

Now, Audrey was the only one he can count on.

After Audrey stood up, she walked towards Edison with a smile.

"Excuse me, Mr. Edison. You just said that my client personally signed a document with changed labels to you, right?"

Edison nodded, "Yes!"

"When and where did you give that document to my client for signature?"

"It was 2:41 p. m. the day before the crime."

Audrey raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you remember the time so clearly?"

"Of course, because I happened to look at the time on the phone. I remember it clearly. It can't be wrong!"

After asking Edison, Audrey walked to Doctor Lewis with her hands behind her back.

Audrey stared straight into Doctor Lewis's eyes.

"Doctor Lewis!" Audrey's words were sharp, "Do you know that it's against the law for you to kill an innocent dog for your own purpose?"

Doctor Lewis's expression changed.

"Nonsense, I didn't. Don't frame me."

Kadin's lawyer stood up and said, "Your honor, the defendant's lawyer tried to frame the witness and acquit the defendant."

The judge banged his gavel and reminded Audrey, "Defendant's lawyer, please don't ask the witness any questions unrelated to this case."

Audrey smiled and turned around.

"Your honor, what I asked just now is exactly related to this case. I have a video here. After you see it, you will know whether I framed the witness or not."

With that, Audrey handed over a USB drive.

The USB drive was played and projected onto a large screen in the courtroom.

Immediately, an image appeared on the big screen. The location of the camera was at the corner of the wall, so the people who entered the room from outside did not notice it.

The person who came in first was Doctor Lewis, and the person who came in from behind was Kadin's assistant.

Seeing this scene, Kadin had a different expression.

The assistant anxiously looked at Kadin and whispered, "Boss, this is not good. It's me and Doctor Lewis..."

Kadin's expression turned ugly as well. He immediately looked at the person who was playing the video and glared at him fiercely, signaling him to cut the video off immediately.

However, as if he didn't see the Kadin, he didn't do anything, and the video continued.

Kadin frowned.

What was going on? Didn't Lance say that he had already bought the people of the court, and any evidence from Luis would not appear? What was going on now?

According to past practice, shouldn't the person who played the video cut it off? How could he not make a move?

Video continued.

The assistant's voice came from the speaker.

"Our boss' order is to let that dog die under the medicine of Pine Pharmaceutical Company, and then frame that dog's death on Luis."

Doctor Lewis smiled wretchedly and replied, "Tell Mr. Kadin that I will cooperate with him, but after that..."

Assistant said, "Doctor Lewis, don't worry. Once Luis's compensation is paid, our boss will pay you the share you deserve."

"Then thank Mr. Kadin for me."

At this point, the video ended.

After the video ended, Audrey smiled and looked up at the judge.

"Your honor, this is a video that was accidentally recorded by a customer who left his phone in the doctor's office. I accidentally got it."

In fact, it was from the father of the little boy who Audrey had saved outside the pet hospital. He was grateful to Audrey and he handed the video over after learning that Audrey was investigating the incident at that time.

Doctor Lewis's face was already in a panic.

He panicked and argued, "I didn't. The person in the video wasn't me."

Audrey smiled and handed over a dozen documents to the judge.

"These are photos taken in that office when I went to the pet hospital to investigate. Your honor, can you compare it with the video? It was obviously recorded in the same office."

The two judges carefully compared the photos with the video.

Judge A looked at Doctor Lewis sharply, "Witness, you can confirm that the video was recorded in the office of the pet hospital. What do you want to say?"

Doctor Lewis was speechless.

He looked at Kadin and Kadin's assistant for help.

At this time, Audrey's phone vibrated. Audrey lowered her head to look at it. It was a video sent by Nataly.

Audrey raised her eyebrows slightly.

It was a good time.

"Your honor, apart from the video just now, I have another piece of evidence to prove that my client was framed."

Judge said, "Hand it over."

Audrey handed over her phone and let the officer play the video of the assigned folder.

It was a surveillance video.

Seeing the video, Kadin's expression suddenly changed.

Because the man in the video was Kadin.

The video was recorded in the office of a casino under Kadin's name.

Kadin clenched his fists tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged out one by one.

How could Audrey obtain the surveillance footage of his casino? The surveillance footage of his casino was clearly encrypted, so it was impossible for others to get it.

Kadin stared to warn the person who was playing the video.

However, the result was the same as before. That person still ignored his warning.

In the office, two people brought a man in through the door.

It was Edison who was brought in.

Everything that followed was exposed to everyone.

It turned out that Edison had lost a large sum of money in the casino and was unable to repay it. Kadin's people wanted to cut off one of his arms.

Hence, Edison agreed to Kadin's request. He had to frame Luis to pay the debt.

When the video ended, Audrey smiled and looked at the judge.

"Your honor, as you can see, from the beginning to the end, my client has only fallen into a trap carefully designed by the plaintiff. My client is innocence, and the plaintiff is guilty."
