Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 739

"My God, Ella is a suspect? How?"

Ella read through the comments as her world spinned out of control. It was obvious that few people believed her.

However, it was the fact that even though she didn't commit intentional homicide, she had killed Catherine.

Though she felt disappointed, she thanked those who had nice things to say. Then she restricted her Weibo account. No-one could write any comments.

Three days later, Ella went to the court with Samuel after she had received a subpoena.

According to the indictment, it was Catherine's father who accused Ella of his daughter's death.

The related evidence was a testimony, provided by a man called Bob. He claimed that he witnessed Ella shoot Catherine.

The lawyer of the opposing party was a nobody from R Country. Samuel was comfortable that he could get the charges dropped within minutes.

He had to reverse the passive situation, since his family was in trouble and his reputation were on the line.

When the case came up, Ella saw Catherine's parents.

As the case progressed, the opposing lawyer hardly had a chance to object to Samuel's accusations whilst Samuel objected with unexpected ease.

He also presented evidence of the crimes that Catherine had committed before and used it to counteract the opposing council's defence.

"Catherine has committed many crimes to my wife Ella including but not limited to malicious injury, kidnapping, personal abuse, and slander. She even engineered a plot to kill my wife where she worked. Later she bribed a gang leader in R Country to murder my wife. As a result, many people lost their lives because of her. Here is the evidence." Samuel took the evidence out of his briefcase and submitted them to court.

Catherine's parents had no idea that their daughter had committed so many crimes. They fell mute, as they realized that they had lost the case.

It was the first time that Ella saw a confident and fearless Samuel in court.

He would attack the opponent psychologically when necessary and defeated him in an imposing manner.

He was able to take care of this alone and there was no need for Ella to say anything in the court.

Samuel didn't mention Catherine had sent a man, who acted indecently towards Jane, in order to protect her. Though the man only touched Jane's arms and waist, it would do no good to mentioned this, since their daughter would be summoned to court. Both Ella and Samuel didn't want this.

The court case was open to the public, therefore the major media houses recorded the entire process. After asking Samuel's permission, they uploaded the proceedings to the Internet.

Within hours, the case was thrown out of court due to the evidence against Catherine. It was clear that Ella had killed Catherine in self-defence.

Hearing Samuel relate the facts of the crime that Catherine had committed, netizens supported the court's verdict.

Even so, there was some who didn't quite believe that Ella got off scot-free.

"Isn't it sad that Catherine was shot to death? How is that justifiable defence? I believe that Samuel covered it up."

"This can't be true."

"Someone should double-check Samuel's accusations. What is that other lawyer doing?"

Ella had mixed feelings when she read through the comments and knew roughly why Samuel announced that Catherine was shot to death.

It was because of her.

Negative comments continued floating around the internet. Soon lots of people asked Samuel to clarify what happened.
