Chapter 204
Dick, along with Susie and Andy's family, stepped towards the court.
After entering the courtroom, they were waiting in the hall.
Upon seeing Bryson, Audrey, and Harold entering the hall, Andy's parents rushed over to Harold.
"You're a murderer. A life for a life!"
"Pay with your life! I'm going to kill you!"
The bodyguards and Dick's men were not allowed into the courtroom, so only the representatives and lawyers of both parties were present in the hall.
Worried that Andy's parents would do something to Harold, Audrey subconsciously blocked their way to him.
Before their hands were on Audrey, Bryson had grabbed their wrists with his hands. They retreated in pain when feeling the strength from Bryson's hands.
They glanced at Bryson, frightened by his imposing manner. They couldn't help but step back, not daring to go forward again.
Andy's father threatened Harold, "Harold, I won't touch you because people are around today. But Harold, God knows what you have done. You will pay for killing my son!"
Harold could not help but say, "I didn't kill him. The real murderer is someone else."
Upon his words, Susie's countenance changed.
It looked like that he was going to betray her.
Andy's mother sneered, "You didn't kill my son? Didn't you admit that you were the murderer before? Now you are going to be sentenced to death. You are afraid, so you want to overturn your words on the spot? Let me tell you. I won't let you get away with your sentence for killing my son. I will keep suing you until you are sentenced to death!"
Susie took a sneeze again.
When touching her itchy nose, she looked at Harold and hated him more.
"Harold, I didn't expect you to be such a person. I thought you were a good person. You have let me down." Susie said angrily.
Harold stared at her.
She finally showed herself in her true colors.
She used to put on a disguise in front of him for his sympathy to her. She would have gotten tired of it, especially when he had known the true her. Now, she even had no interest in acting and slandered him to his face.
In the past, she only slandered him behind his back, but this time, she smeared him in his presence.
Harold slightly closed his eyes.
He knew he should give up any hope now.
Audrey, standing beside him, mocked, "Harold, now you finally know what kind of person your sweetheart is, right?"
Harold did not want to see Susie, the one whom he had once been crazy for but now he felt quite disgusted at.
"Let's go!" Harold turned his face away.
"Alright!"
Audrey and Harold walked in, followed by Bryson.
For fear of Bryson, Dick and his men had no guts to step forward to the three and just stared at the three.
Andy's parents got nothing to do when the three passed by. Susie glared at Harold angrily.
This bastard made her wait for an entire night to play her last night. She decided to revenge on him soon.
...
In the court. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
The case of Andy's death caused a stir in Shore City. Many of the audience criticized Harold, since he had made a confession.
Audrey, who was sitting in the lawyer's seat, could still hear the discussions from the audience.
"Harold must be a lunatic. I heard that the official report listed the cause of death as suffering slash for nineteen times. What does it mean? The dead was full of bloody holes."
"It's too cruel. After Andy died, there are only his parents as he was the only child. His parents have to suffer the tragedy of losing the young loved ones."
"Yes, it is. Such a vicious murderer will only be sentenced to life imprisonment. Don't let him get away!"
"Yes, that's the word. He should be sentenced to death and be executed immediately!"
Because Harold was a suspect in a murder case. He had been locked in the prisoner seat, very close to the audience, after arriving in the court.
Audrey could hear the discussions from the audience. Let alone Harold.
When he heard the discussions, Harold's face turned slightly pale. He felt angry and clenched his fists.
Audrey glanced at Harold and gave him a reassuring look. This comforting gaze suddenly smoothed his mood.
In the end, Audrey noticed Bryson among the audience who smiled and gave her a thumbs-up. Audrey smiled back.
Audrey made eye contact with Bryson in the court, which made Harold feel uncomfortable.
At this time, on the plaintiff's seat, the lawyer took the bag from Coby and took out the paper.
After looking around, the lawyer asked Dick who was sitting beside the victim's parents.
"Mr. Dick, where is the evidence you mentioned before?"
Dick answered, "Isn't it in the bag?"
The lawyer replied, "But there is no receipt nor the diary that you mentioned."
"How is that possible!"
Dick took the bag and flipped through it in person. In the end, he had to admit that the IOU and diary that he had stolen from Harold's house were nowhere.
Coby came forward with a serious expression. "The bag has been kept by me!"
Dick trusted Coby very much. Dick's face darkened. "It seems that there is a traitor among us. When we go back, I will investigate thoroughly!"
"But what about now?" Coby asked.
Dick sneered, "Without those, he could still be sentenced to death. This case has attracted much attention from society. Now, the public has made their judgment and asked him to be sentenced. With the witness and evidence, it is impossible for him to get rid of the crime!"
Coby's eyes were full of resentment.
He fixed his eyes on the back of Dick's head and showed the inclination to kill Dick.
Dick, who was sensitive, felt a chill from the back of his head. He turned around but found nothing as Coby had restored to the usual.
Seeing Dick turning around, Coby looked at him in confusion.
"Boss, what's the matter?"
Dick found no one behind Coby. But the feeling was so strong that he couldn't ignore it. He had no idea where it came from.
Maybe he was too sensitive that made a mistake.
Here was the court under guard. How could anyone be possible to lay a hand on him in the court?
He answered lightly, "Nothing!"
Then, Dick returned to his seat.
