Layla’s trial finally started and her lawyer was defending her with all kinds of twisted terms and made up logic about the reason why she should be innocent.
Layla was seated comfortably in the chair with full confidence that she was going to win the case. Having David help her out was one of the best decision in her life.
Though the old man was quite shocked and angry at first when he heard her confession.
But since there was nothing else he could do to undo it and the damage was already done, the best thing he could do was to call his best lawyer to defend her and made sure Layla was not arrested.
“The relationship between Layla and Christian has worsened. He could be making the statement up to drag her down with him. There is not a single proof that Layla has ever ordered him to murder Sofia. Therefore, his statement is

Dion woke up early that day and made breakfast on the bed for Sofia.He had never done anything like this before, but since it was their first day back to Athens as official husband and wife, he wanted to treat her with something special.Dion had private chefs in his house, but that morning he made that himself."Thank you so much." She took a bite of the bread and drank the water before taking a sip of the coffee as well. It was perfect."Are you going to work today?" She asked."Yes, unfortunately I have to go. But don't worry, I have made dinner reservation at seven, it's my favorite restaurant, I'm sure you will like it. I'll also be back before then."

She gasped and placed her hand in front of her mouth as warm tears started to gather around the rim of her eyes.She had never thought Dion would propose again to her since they were going to make their marriage official and permanent.Of course, she would never say no to this amazing man who helped her out at the lowest point in her life.“Yes, I will marry you.” She nodded. Dion smiled and got up, then, he placed the ring on her finger and the two of them kissed.It was such a romantic sight. A beach proposal, kissing as they listened to the wave crashing when the sun was about to set and the sky slowly turned dark.It was a moment Sofia will never forget in her life.“Thank you for choosing me, Sofia.” Dion pulled her into

What are you doing?” She could hear him speaking from the other side of the line.“I’m at the museum right now, Acropolis museum.” She answered.“Ah, are you going there alone?” He asked again.“Yes, I’m going there alone.

Don’t you see it, ask the officer who was with me that day. The woman in black hair who visited me last time, she was Sofia De Laurent.”Christian was trying to explain it to the officer. Sofia was still alive, so he never ended up killing her. He wanted them to change his charges from murder to murder attempt instead.Perhaps it might ease his sentence a bit and he could walk out of prison faster than the initial sentence considering that Sofia was still alive.“You must be having a guilty conscience, that’s why you think of her when you see other women with even the tiniest bit of resemblance.""I know what I saw. That woman was Sofia!""Sofia De Laurent

He’s literally in another room. Come on, Sofia. I want you so much. Besides, we have hired private nannies for him. If he’s hungry, they can just bottle fed him.” He reasoned before he started kissing her on the lips.Sofia felt a little odd since they had not done it for so long, but she eventually gave in and the two of them ended up doing it.However, just as they finished the first round and about to move on to the second round, there was a knock on the door.“Sir, sorry to disturb you but you have a guest.” It was one of the maid.
