Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1476

Without Sophia's strategies, Betty could not survive, like a parasite who had left its host.

Meanwhile, Sophia and Jeffrey were attacking each other in court, bringing Javier so much shame that he wanted to leave the scene.

After the plaintiff and the defendant delivered their opening statements, the trial entered the most crucial round of witness examination and questioning.

It was Simon's time to spring into action. Chuckling, he stretched and stood up relaxedly. "Mr. Snyder, you claimed that the defendant paid you off to get rid of Ms. Carle, but there's no evidence to back up your claim. I have a reason to suspect that you're lying and framing my client to get away from your crime."

"I did not lie! I told the truth. I never had any exchange with the maid at all. Why would I kill her for no reason?" Jeffrey nervously defended himself.

Sean fixed a stern gaze on Simon's animated face and silently clenched his fist. The secret recordings by Nina were in Sean's possession. She had lost her life precisely over the recordings.

Simon must have been aware of the fact as well, but he remained unfazed because he knew that Nina's stealth recordings did not qualify as evidence.

Simon continued his attacks. "You claimed that my client paid a huge sum to you. May I know the whereabouts of the payment?"

Jeffrey could not come up with an answer. He had requested cash from Sophia and later kept the money in the basement of his home in Tsulu. Therefore, there weren't any transaction records to prove his claim.

At this point, Sophia's men had probably moved the cash away from his house in Tsulu under her command.

"I told you I had never spoken to Nina before the murder. I wouldn't have killed her if Sophia hadn't instructed me to!" Jeffrey was nearly driven mad by Simon. As a rough hooligan, he was no match for a slick attorney.

"That is your one-sided claim without any evidence. Even if you were not acquainted with Nina Carle, you might have killed her in the heat of the moment. A man like you will not bat an eye at the loss of life," Simon argued, trying his best to paint Jeffrey as a vicious serial murderer.

The judges' negative impression of Jeffrey would play to Sophia's advantage.

"Your Honor," Sean interrupted, "I have a question regarding the defense attorney's argument."
