A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 206

Audrey's questioning made Susie panic. She tightly grabbed the table in front of her, and her back was covered in a cold sweat.

Susie was even more flustered after meeting Audrey's eyes.

Who was this lawyer? Why did he know that she would lie in advance and have prepared the evidence?

Now, she completely fell into the trap she had set before.

"I ... I..." Susie stuttered, unable to come up with a complete sentence. She quickly looked at Dick and asked him for help.

The prosecution lawyer stood up. "Your Honor, I object. I object to the mental attack of the defendant's lawyer against the witness."

Audrey smiled elegantly. "Sir, I just asked a normal question because I have evidence to prove that there is something wrong with the witness' words. And, the witness is very likely to commit perjury. My question is legitimate. Your Honor, please allow me to continue asking the witness because this concerns my client's innocence."

The two judges discussed for a while.

"Objection overruled. The defense lawyer, you can continue. The witness must answer the defense lawyer's question truthfully."

Susie gripped the table and her knuckles turning pale.

Her mind suddenly went blank. How should she answer?

"I ... I... I ... At that time..."

Audrey smiled and said, "Witness, can't you answer it? If so, I will answer it for you. At that time, you called my client and said that you killed someone. Because you were too afraid to move, you let my client go to you, right?"

Susie's eyes popped.

"No ... that's not true. I didn't kill anyone."

"Of course you didn't kill that person, because the real murderer is someone else. You just took advantage of my client's trust in you to make him take the blame for the real murderer." Audrey suddenly turned to look at Dick, "Is that so? Sir?"

Dick looked at Audrey with a gloomy expression.

Unexpectedly, Audrey knew that he was the real murderer.

"As far as I know, here is the thing. Mr. Dick went to see the victim that day and wanted the victim to give him ten percent of his income. Unfortunately, the victim did not agree. So Mr. Dick killed the victim. Later, after the victim was dead, he added eighteen more cuts to the victim, because he was not satisfied. Am I right, Mr. Dick?"

Dick's expression changed.

"The defense lawyer, do you have any evidence for what you've said? Who can prove that I killed him? Don't randomly accuse me if you don't have any evidence. I am a legal citizen of Shore City. You can't accuse me as you want." Dick said coldly.

"Really?" Audrey smiled and looked at Dick. "Mr. Dick, what if I can show you evidence?"

"It's impossible!" Dick said confidently.

At that time, there were only him and Coby at the scene, and Coby couldn't possibly testify against him. There were no surveillance cameras there. Thus, Audrey couldn't have any evidence.

Audrey smiled and looked at the judge.

"Your Honor, I have a witness to prove that my client did not kill anyone. Can I ask my witness to be here?"

"Sure!"

After getting permission from the judge, Audrey signaled to the audience.

Dick looked at the audience with disbelief. Coby walked out from the audience and sat in the witness seat.

"How dare you betray me!" Dick looked at Coby with anger and slammed his hand on the table, "Coby, you! I trusted you so much."

The judge frowned and asked, "Witness, please introduce yourself."

"Your honor, you should have my information here. My name is Coby and I am Mr. Dick's assistant!"

"Since you are the prosecutor's assistant, why do you choose to be the defendant's witness?"

Coby frowned as he looked at Audrey.

Audrey stood up with a smile.

"Your Honor, although Mr. Coby is the assistant of Mr. Dick, he is also a victim related to Mr. Dick. Today I also want to sue Mr. Dick for Mr. Coby."

Dick frowned, feeling a little flustered.

Did Coby know the truth of the past? However, the surveillance there had been destroyed, so Coby couldn't know it.

"Witness, please state what you saw."

"Yes, Your Honor. That day, I followed Mr. Dick to the deceased. Mr. Dick wanted to ask for a refund from the deceased, but the deceased refused. Then, Mr. Dick killed the deceased with a knife and stabbed him more than ten times."

"Because Mr. Dick had disliked Harold for a long time, he wanted to take this opportunity to kill Harold. Therefore, Mr. Dick called Ms. Susie and asked her to call Harold. Harold liked Ms. Susie very much. Ms. Susie lied that she could not stand the victim so she killed him. Harold did not want Ms. Susie to go to jail for him. Thus, he took the blame for Ms. Susie."

"Your Honor, I'm done. This is all I know."

"You fucking frame me! I'm killing you right now!" Dick stood up angrily and was about to rush towards Coby when he was stopped by two security guards.

Coby calmly took out a recording from his pocket. "Your Honor, I brought a recording with me at that time. It happened to record the situation. As long as you hear it, you will know if what I've said is true."

Then, Coby played the recording in his hand.

The whole process was the same as what Coby had said.

Dick's face twisted.

He didn't expect that Coby had brought a recorder with him at that time, which made his plan fail.

Andy's parents were stunned at this moment.

Before this, Dick had found them and said that he had evidence to get justice for their son so that the murderer would get the proper punishment. Thus, they agreed to attend the court as relatives.

They thought that Dick had come to help them.

However, they did not expect that this man was a sanctimonious hypocrite and a beast! He was the real murderer who killed their son.

Andy's mother pointed at Dick's face and said, "You are the murderer! I..."

Dick saw her rush over and pushed her away.

Being pushed by Dick, Andy's mother hit the table and she fainted.
