Falling for My Contractual Wife (Grace and Brian) novel Chapter 602

After the judge read out Louise's crime, Louise began to clamor, "Alfredo ordered me to do it. I'm not the mastermind. I'm also a victim."

The two of them began to slander each other.

The judge banged his gavel hard. "Silence!"

Louise shut her mouth indignantly.

"Rosella, when you colluded with Alfredo to kill Ava, there was no hesitation at all. The court believes that you were very subjective in the murder of Ava. The motive for the crime was clear. There was no possibility of you being instigated by others. Do you plead guilty?" the judge asked.

The statement left Louise unable to defend herself. Her attorney could only try his best to fight for a lighter sentence for her and persuade her to confess.

After the recess, Louise changed her attitude and cried, "Your Honor, I was wrong. Please give me another chance to turn over a new leaf."

Just as the judge was about to pass judgment, the aggrieved party's lawyer suddenly raised his hand. "Your Honor, the aggrieved party requests to present new evidence."

Even Marshall was surprised. He didn't know what other evidence the lawyer he hired had.

The judge motioned for the bailiff to present the evidence and played an audio clip on the spot.

"Grace has a child. Now that she's in jail, she can't even take care of herself. And her brother's leukemia has relapsed. Now is the best time to kill that little bastard," a voice said from the audio clip.

"What are you going to do?" another voice asked.

"She's just a little bastard. Throw her into the sea. She's tiny. A shark will eat her in one bite and leave no trace," the first voice said and laughed.

Nova listened to the conversation and clenched her fists tightly.

Although she had already finished this audio a few days ago, she was still in agony when this recording was played in public.

Nova clenched her fists so hard that her long nails dug into her flesh and her palms bled.
