A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350

After that, Helen Zalenski, the accountant working in Starstream Group under Cordy, was brought to the witness stand.

"Did the defendant order you to wire 700,000 through multiple transactions to this account?" Victor asked.

"Yes," Helen replied, keeping her head lowered, afraid to even look Cordy's way.

"And did the defendant order you to withhold the untampered tax revenue report?"

"Yes."

"This is redundant, but do you swear you're telling the truth and nothing but the truth?"

"Yes," Helen said determinedly.

"Thank you."

Having gotten all the responses he needed, Victor turned back toward Judge Faden. "Your Honor, this concludes the prosecution's witness statements."

"Very well. You may return to your seat."

"Thank you, Your Honor."

Judge Faden then turned toward Quinn. "What does the defendant plead?"

Quinn looked up at him then.

She had kept her eyes glued to the materials she had, seemingly unaffected despite the solid evidence against Cordy while the prosecution presented their evidence.

For everyone else, her apathy made her appear as if she had given up already.

It was no until Judge Faden called her that she put down the material she was holding and picked up her glasses.

She actually appeared sharper as she put them on, and that black formfitting suit was the signature fashion of any lawyer!

She stepped around her table and said unhurriedly, "Your Honor, my client pleads not guilty."
