Trial
Soon, Elvis laughed and said, “Since we’ve come to this, we would tell the truth. Indeed, the shares of
Sam and I had been liquidated over three months ago. But the people who own the shares gave us the
shareholder’s right. In other words, we’re the representatives of those two shareholders, and you have
no right to drive us out of the shareholders’ meeting.”
There was an uproar at the board meeting. They did not expect that the two most loyal shareholders
had inadvertently made the correct choice.
Sam looked at Samuel contemptuously. “But I don’t think you have shares in the Wade Group, do you?
You don’t have the right to blame us. Instead, it’s time for us to ask you to leave.”
Just then, Samuel burst out laughing. “Haha! I can’t believe you still don’t get it at times like this.”
He took two documents from his backpack and threw them in front of Elvis. “Look carefully. This is the
equity transfer agreement. The two shareholders you represented have already given me all the shares
that belong to the Wade Group. So, do you still not understand the situation?”
Elvis quickly grabbed the document and flipped through it. When he saw the familiar name, he knew
that everything was over because what Samuel said was true.
Sam did not expect the situation. All the arrogance on his face from earlier disappeared, and they
glanced at each other.
The door to the conference room was opened, and the security guards looked at Elvis and Sam.
“Please get out.”
When Samuel asked them to check the documents earlier, he had phoned the security guards.
Elvis and Sam were asked to leave. Samuel looked at the other directors who had different
expressions and said, “I’m really sorry, everyone. I didn’t tell you before, and I think you didn’t care
either. You probably don’t care about the Wade Group which is on the verge of bankruptcy. If someone
wants to cash out his shares like Elvis and Sam, they can come to make the deal with me.”
He looked around, and no one answered him. He did not mind. “If not, you better not let me know that
you sell your shares to someone other than the Wade Group. Otherwise, I don’t even know what I’ll do.
About matters like the acquisition, stop all of them. The Wade Group needs to get back on its feet the
most right now.”
Brice, who had been silent in the corner, suddenly spoke. “Samuel, I don’t think you have the right to
decide all of these. The person in charge isn’t here.”
Samuel stared at him and responded, “I’m from the Wade family. Brady is considered my family
member. I will never do something to harm the Wade family. On the contrary, I know who’s behind your
back. Don’t mess with me, or you’ll be the next one to be thrown out.”
Brice changed his expression drastically and stopped speaking.
Samuel looked at the people at the table and knew he had achieved his goal that day.
When the meeting ended, Samuel looked at Danny and smiled. “I know you’re Irene’s right-hand man,
but I think you know very well she’s done for. Given the current trend, I don’t think she’s able to get out
from prison.”
Danny opened his mouth slightly and closed it again.
Samuel could tell that Danny had wavered. “You’re a smart person. You know who to follow to survive.”
The solemn national emblem was hung in the courtroom, and the judge sat on the spacious and raised
bench.
He looked solemnly at the people below the desk. Irene was standing at the defendant’s spot. Lucas
Green, the lawyer Danny had hired for Irene, was beside her. At that moment, Lucas appeared slightly
annoyed.
He did not expect Irene would do so many terrible things. There were too many cases involved.
If it was only about the incidents of Rulina Villa Area or Nancy, he could still justify or negotiate for
reducing the sentence.
However, with so many cases and a strong chain of evidence, he could not defend Irene.
When the court was finally adjourned, Lucas met Irene alone.
“Ms. Wade, the current situation is not beneficial for you,” said Lucas.
Irene was haggard. She had been nervous for the past few days, and hallucinations and nightmares
surrounded her like retribution. Even in the court earlier, she could even see a pale woman and a
woman with a torn face in the gallery.
Irene almost lost control. She barely managed to handle it because of the calmness accumulated over
the years.
Irene murmured, “Is there no way to plead not guilty?”
Lucas widened his eyes. “It’s impossible! Ms. Wade, why didn’t you tell me you did those things in
private the last time we speak? Aside from the car accident at Myrtle Street and the crimes at Rulina
Villa Area, you’re involved in the death of Nancy, the case at PineMist Island, and all those
kidnappings. Ms. Wade, how many more things did you hide from me?”
Irene’s eyes reddened as she looked at him. “What else can I do?”
Lucas pondered for a long time before saying, “All I can do for you now is to reduce your sentence. It’s
impossible to plead not guilty. If all the evidence and witnesses testify against you, with the impression
of the judge, you’re most probably be sentenced to life imprisonment.”
After attending the trial, Irene had a disappointing performance. The judge already had a bad
impression of her. If she acted arrogantly, the consequences would be disastrous.
Thus, Lucas quickly thought of a way. “You have to cry bitterly and apologize desperately to those
victims and their families later. Let the judge see how much you regret it. You can ignore your dignity to
a certain extent and pester them.”
“Y-You want me to make an undignified apology in front of so many people? No way!” Irene’s face
darkened.
Lucas glanced at her in disappointment. “Which is more important now? Your reputation or your
sentence?”
Irene stopped talking. Of course, she knew Lucas’ words were definitely not exaggerated.
When the trial started again, Nancy’s mother told her daughter’s experience in tears, including
watching her daughter jump from the top floor. The dull but harsh sound on the ground was stimulating
and caused her ears to ring.
During the day, she always had hallucinations when cooking and saw her daughter coming home from
school, but she was awakened by the voice of her son looking for his sister.
She would have dreams at night and always witnessed the scene of her daughter falling from the
building repeatedly. When she woke up, she saw her daughter’s grayscale photo.
She cried so hard that many people at the scene cried.
Ainsley looked solemn. She looked at Mary, who was still talking, and knew that the latter would
definitely win.
The door to the trial hall was opened, and the people who walked in were Manuel and Serina.
That day’s case also involved Serina’s kidnapping. The only matter that remained unsettled was the
kidnapping case that destroyed everyone four years ago.
Ainsley neglected the kidnapping case because Serina’s memory of the kidnapping had not been
recovered yet. Ainsley did not want Serina to be hurt again.
