Chapter 105 Trial
Soon, it was the night before the trial. At eight o’clock, Suzy finished her meal and lay in bed.
She stared at the lamp overhead, and her mind was a mess.
Thinking of Evan’s words, Suzy felt at ease again.
He would definitely ensure her safety.
Just as she was thinking, the door was opened. Suzy was stunned for a moment before she stood up.
“Why is he here again?” thought she.
Neither of them spoke. Evan stepped forward, took off his coat, and looked like he was going to sleep.
Did he treat the police station as his home?
Suzy’s mouth twitched. “You… Is there any progress in the case?”
These days, Suzy knew nothing about what had happened outside, including Linda’s interrogation.
“No.”
Evan’s answer made Suzy feel desperate. She suddenly asked doubtfully, “Evan, you wouldn’t trick me to sleep with you for two nights, would you? You didn’t want to help me at all.”
Hearing that, Evan looked down at her with sharp eyes. Then he smiled playfully and said, “Yes, I do want to see you go to jail.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
“You!”
“However, I would rather you be toyed with by me rather than in prison.”
It made Suzy even angrier. She knew that Evan must have had a plot when he requested to continue to perform the contract. He would definitely try his best to torture her for the next six months.
In the end, Suzy fell silent.
At six o’clock the next morning, when Evan was about to leave, Suzy also woke up.
She looked at Evan, who was about to leave, and anxiously stopped him.
“Wait.”
Evan stopped and looked at her in silence.
Suzy looked embarrassed.
Evan knew her well. She was asking him for a favor.
“Just say it.”
A cold voice sounded. Suzy immediately said, “You are so powerful that you can come and go as you please at the police station. Can you get someone to bring me clothes… If possible, hire a makeup artist for me.”
Evan was speechless.
He took a glance at Suzy. “Do you think you are going to the banquet later?”
Suzy’s mouth twitched. She had to be gorgeous in court! She could not afford to lose face! Besides, there would definitely be many spectators outside today.
“Just tell me, are you going to help or not?”
Evan sneered. “If I can help you, what can you give me?”
Suzy pursed her lips. “The agreement says that you will fulfill all my requests.”
“It’s different now.”
Suzy was speechless. How could he go back on his word? She rolled her eyes at him in silence.
“Okay, I will promise you one condition afterward, okay?”
Evan didn’t reply and turned to leave.
Suzy couldn’t fall asleep either. She lay on the bed, feeling bored. At about seven o’clock, Janet arrived with clothes and a makeup artist.
Although they hadn’t seen each other for some time, they weren’t embarrassed. Janet hugged her excitedly.
“Miss Carters, I missed you so much. If not for Mr. Hughes, I would want to stay by your side forever. Now, I can follow you again.”
Suzy was speechless.
She didn’t believe it at all.
After a simple makeup and change of clothes, Suzy was taken away by the police.
When she arrived at the court, there were indeed a lot of people outside.
Things had been trending for days, but it was still the center of attention. The crowd outside was divided into two groups.
One group yelled, “A life for a life!”
They were scolding Suzy.
The other group was made up of Suzy’s fans. They looked at Suzy with firm looks in their eyes.
“Suzy, we believe in you. We will wait for you here today!”
In an instant, Suzy was extremely moved in her heart.
At the court, the chief judge announced the opening of the court.
Suzy looked down the stage and saw that her company’s artists had all arrived. Their eyes were full of worry.
People from the Edgar family and the Carters family were present. Even Alex, who had a broken leg, came in a wheelchair.
It could be seen that they really wanted to see Suzy make a fool of herself.
Among the crowd, Suzy didn’t see that familiar figure. She was a little disappointed.
However, she still trusted Evan in her heart.
All of Suzy’s questions were answered by Mr. Weil. After some questioning, the chief judge began to question Linda.
“That day, Suzy ruined my brother’s engagement party. When I saw her go upstairs, I wanted to follow her, but I didn’t expect to see such a scene. I hated Suzy, so I recorded it. I had no idea, so I had been waiting for my brother to wake up.”
“My brother is right. The murderer must pay the price!”
Linda’s gaze was filled with resentment as she looked at Suzy.
“Miss Collins, there’s something wrong with what you’re saying. Since you followed Suzy upstairs, why would you record a video in the wardrobe?” Mr. Weil immediately asked.
After that, Mr. Weil handed over the photos he found. “Your Honor, after our investigation, we have found out that Linda and Aaron were lovers before the incident.”
Linda’s expression changed slightly. “Yes, I knew in advance that Suzy would go to that room, so I hid in the wardrobe. I wanted to record other videos, but I didn’t expect her to kill someone!”
The chief judge frowned as he looked at Linda.
“The autopsy report shows that Aaron was stabbed five times in total. Three of them were stabbed by one person, and the other two were stabbed by another person. Linda, when Suzy was in a coma, did you do anything to Aaron?”
Hearing that, Linda immediately denied it.
“I didn”t!”
She clenched her fists. She didn’t expect that there would be an autopsy report. After the incident, she knew very well that someone behind Suzy had disposed of this matter. She had always felt that the body had also been disposed of.
Linda looked at Suzy across from her. “It’s probably the person behind her who added two more stabs after finding out about what happened. I used to be Aaron’s girlfriend, but I didn’t have enough resentment to kill him.”
Indeed, after Linda left, there might be a third person in the room.
For a moment, the chief judge frowned. They had already gotten the full video in Linda’s hand, but Suzy’s back was to the camera, so they couldn’t see where she had stabbed it.
But it was clear that all the evidence pointed to Suzy.
Under the stage, Mrs. Edgar collapsed and shouted, “It’s them. They killed my son together. They are all guilty. Give them the death penalty!”
“Be quiet!” The court police spoke up.
Mrs. Edgar did not quiet down, but she even raised her voice.
A noisy voice came, and Suzy frowned and closed her eyes. Her mind was a mess. But for some reason, she came to her senses the next second, and all the details of that night appeared clearly in her mind.
At that time, she hated Aaron to the extreme. She was indeed very crazy, but she avoided the position of his heart with every stab.
Instantly, Suzy raised her eyes.
“I remember now!” she exclaimed. “I didn’t stab him in the heart!”
