"No, no…" Helen shook her head profusely."Then tell me, where did all the money in your account appear from?" Quinn asked aggressively."I, I…" Helen was unable to give an explanation. Quinn did not waste too much time on her. She turned around and said to Judge Faden, "Your Honor, I have a witness who wants to come to court.""Approved."A man of about 60 years of age came to court. He looked slightly overwhelmed by the commanding aura of the court and had a look of unease on his face.Helen lost her cool the moment she saw the man, and her entire face paled.Quinn walked to the man and said, "We are in court, there's no need to fear. All you need to do is to answer my questions honestly.""Okay." The man nodded profusely."What is your name?""Timothy Chancy.""What do you do for a living?""I am a reproduction artist.""What do you mainly reproduce?""Ancient paintings, famous artwork, and so on." Timothy added, "I reproduce handwriting too.""Could you do a demonst
"She asked me to duplicate Cordy Sachs' signature on a huge pile of documents.""When was that?""Around a month ago.""Do you have evidence that it happened?""Yes. I have records of our conversation." Timothy pulled out his phone.Quinn took it and projected it in the court, displaying to everyone the conversation between Timothy and Helen.It was written clearly that Helen had made Timothy help her sign documents, and there were even pictures of the signed documents and records of the funds transfer.It was clearly a significant piece of evidence.Commotion arose in court, and Noel's face was ashen with horror.She did not expect Helen to be so foolish as to leave behind so much evidence for others to pick up on!She even left behind conversation history, fund transfer screenshots, and pictures of signed documents! Noel had reminded Helen umpteen times to be careful in all things and not to leave any trace behind. Did all her words fall on deaf ears?!Jessica's entire b
In the solemn and stately court, Judge Faden announced, "In accordance with the decision of the collegial panel and through courtroom investigations and debate, there is insufficient evidence to convict Cordy Sachs of bribery of 1 million dollars and tax evasion of over 7 million. She is to be immediately released."The moment the announcement was made, cheers sounded across the court.Not everyone wanted to see Cordy captured. Most wanted the court to seek justice. What's more, the case was filled with twists and turns which explained the enthusiastic response toward the announcement.Noel was horror-stricken.She looked at the joyful faces around her and almost yelled out loud.She had thought that it was a foregone conclusion that Cordy would be thrown into jail. Yet…yet…everything was screwed up!Why in the world was Cordy so capable that she could escape unscathed time and time again?Was even Jessica and the Stuarts no match for her? Noel gritted her teeth with anger.
At that moment, Jay had already walked off.John turned to look at them one last time before leaving as well.Jessica naturally followed by his side.Sam furrowed his brows as he said to Bob, "Don't you find Jay rather strange today? Even the way he walks looks off."Bob appeared unmoved and he did not offer a response to Sam's remark. Instead, he said, "I'm going off. Don't bother about things between me and my girlfriend. You should be watching your own wife instead. Now that so many people are clamoring after her, given the attention she's drawn to herself, you'll regret it if you lose her." With that, Bob strode off.Sam looked at all of their retreating figures.Somehow, he felt like something was wrong with this bunch of people.He looked toward Quinn and involuntarily sneered.People clamoring after her? So what?-Cordy and Quinn finally dealt with all the reporters and barely made their way back to the car.Quinn was driving it very slowly. "You don't drive ofte
Cordy nodded.But how could she simply let Noel continue being so cocky?!It had been so long, and instead of toning things down, Noel had been pushing her luck. She even started being in cahoots with Jessica…A cold look flashed past her eyes.Some people insisted on courting their own death! -Noel left the courtroom in a rage.Recalling the scene of Cordy being immediately released made Noel wish she could hack Cordy into pieces.Why did that bitch always end up so lucky? Yes.It was all sheer luck.Cordy had everything she had today because of pure luck.The driver seated in front didn't dare to make a sound.He could sense the terrifying aura emanating from Noel and was afraid of provoking her.Noel's phone suddenly rang.She looked grumpily at her phone and saw that it was Jessica calling her. That was when her anger died down and fear began creeping up her heart. After all, she was the reason for their failure this time. She did not manage to make sure that He
"What do you want me to do, Ms. Stuart?" Noel cut straight to the chase. Jessica said with a smile, "Although you were the reason for our failure this time, Noel, you aren't too stupid a person, so I'm still willing to work with you. Just keep the shares that I'm giving you. I'll tell you when I figure out what I need you to do for me.""What if you make me commit murder or arson?" Noel counter-questioned."Do you think what we've done is better than murder and arson?" Jessica was forthcoming.They were all against the law.Did Noel still not understand that?! Noel gritted her teeth. She knew clearly what Jessica would make her do and what she had to do from the moment she took these shares, but greed is part and parcel of human nature.Looking at the contract in front of her, Noel knew that taking these shares would that she had power over Sachs Enterprises.Her grandmother and mother treated her nicely on the surface, but they only wanted to use her when they actually were
There were a couple of reasons why Cordy suspected so.Firstly, there was warmth in Zoe's voice when she talked about the silver lining. Zoe was not one to lie and cover up her emotions. She was probably trying to convey that an exciting chapter was about to begin in her life.Secondly, John said that Jay would take care of Zoe. If they could be honest with each other and resolve the misunderstanding between them, she believed it would only be a matter of time till they got together. "Why do you say so?" Zoe counter-questioned.Despite the changes that Cordy sensed, traces of Zoe's exaggerated character were still preserved.Cordy furrowed her brow."How could it be possible between me and Jay?! It's good enough if he manages to take care of himself. How would he dare to come close to me? Jay and I…" Zoe paused for a moment before going on, "I admit that I felt upset, having remained single for so many years and waiting for Jay. I cheapened myself so much that I thought it was f
Cordy held herself back and decided not to say anything.Since Zoe had let things go, she should not let Zoe do so with any regrets."You and Quinn don't need to worry about me. I'll be well. Until the day when I face a complete dead-end, I won't stand on ceremony in seeking you guys out," Zoe said brightly."Okay," Cordy replied. "Gotta go, I need to learn how to cook.""Huh?""Currently, when I have no idea what to do, I'll start with learning basic life skills," Zoe said in all seriousness.She really looked like she was trying her best to live well. If Bob really could shine a light in Zoe's world, Cordy would choose to give them her blessings."I won’t interrupt your skill learning then," Cordy said teasingly."I'll invite you and Quinn to my house for a meal next time.""Sure."They hung up.Cordy heaved a sigh of relief, and it was then that she felt tiredness setting in.Ever since she was involved in the court case and when things happened to Zoe subsequently,
