Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1337
When Thomas saw Sarah, he could not help but shudder.
Sarah quickly said with reddened eyes, “Brother, where have you been all this time? I was so worried. How did you get hurt? Did Shaun threaten you?”
Shaun immediately rebuked, “Sarah, please mind your words. I can sue you for defamation.”
The judge glared at Sarah as a warning too. “The witness can take his place.”
After Thomas nervously got into the witness box, Shaun asked, “Mr. Thomas Neeson, I would like to ask a question. Did I help Neeson Corporation many times after your father passed away? Did I secretly help Neeson Corporation to look for collaboration partners multiple times as well?”
Thomas nodded fearfully. “Yes.”
Shaun said, “If it weren’t for me, could Neeson Corporation have lasted until today?”
Thomas shook his head. “No.”
Shaun asked again, “Your sister said I had sex with her before. Do you think this is true?”
Stevens stood up. “Objection. Thomas is just my client’s brother. How would he know such a private question? Moreover, as far as I know, Thomas and Shaun’s relationship was never good. There are too many doubts as to why Thomas would suddenly be willing to be Shaun’s witness. We suspect Shaun threatened the witness. All of you can see the injuries on the witness’s body.”
The judge frowned, and everyone started whispering as well.
However, Thomas said loudly, “No, he didn’t threaten me. I’m the one who hates Sarah. She’s too evil.”
Sarah’s expression changed. She said with tears in her eyes, “Brother, do you know what you’re saying? We’ve gone through so many things after Mom’s death. If it weren’t for me, would you still be here in one piece?”
Thomas said, “There was one time when she asked me to procure drugs. In the end, she didn’t succeed, and she even blamed me for the drug not being strong enough.”
“Nonsense.” Stevens said in a deep voice, “Tell me. What benefits did Shaun give you to frame your sister?”
Sarah sobbed and said, “Brother, we’re family.”
She wanted to hint to Thomas that her money was his money too, hoping Thomas would come to realize it.
However, Thomas had long since despised her. How would he believe her? “When she and Shaun were dating, she often instigated me to give Shaun some hints so that he would give her luxurious houses and branded bags. Furthermore, back when Shaun and Catherine hadn’t divorced yet, she always pretended to be hurt. It was so that she could cheat Shaun over to her place and make Catherine misunderstand. She wanted to slip in when the husband and wife were fighting.”
Sarah was furious. “That’s not true.”
Thomas sneered. “It’s true. Your injuries were very light every single time, yet you always had me exaggerate it in front of Shaun.”
