Chapter 484
The woman’s voice in the recording wasn’t hers. They repeated the same trick and faked the recording.
“Your Honor, this recording can’t be evidence,” Tanya promptly objected.
Jonathan asked, “We’d like our witness, Ms. Anstey, to testify.”
Esther and Jasper never expected Bradley to agree to let Liliane testify to win.
“Granted.”
The disfigured Liliane stepped forward under everyone’s scrutiny.
Bradley’s legal team was undoubtedly made up of top law school graduates. They pooled all available resources to secure victory.
“Ms. Liliane Anstey, did Ms. Esther Quill coldly refuse my client’s request to donate bone marrow to Felix Warner for his illness? Please answer with yes or no,” Jonathan asked.
Liliane held deep resentment toward Esther. If not for her, Leah wouldn’t be in prison. Her biological father, Shane, wouldn’t be in trouble. She wouldn’t have been disfigured by that lunatic, Liam, either.
Now that she looked neither like a monster, on what grounds did Esther deserve happiness?
“Yes.”
Jonathan smirked with a hint of triumph. He bet Esther and her lawyer hadn’t expected Liliane to testify.
Esther’s reluctance to donate bone marrow made sense since she didn’t know Felix was her son at the time. But would the judge consider this? Would the jurors and the public agree?
Unlikely!
They would likely view it as Esther refusing to save her own son to get back at Bradley. Bradley had taken extreme measures to save his son during a crucial time. While not legal, wasn’t it normal for a father to have overwhelming love for his child?
“Ms. Anstey, did my client, Mr. Warner, bring all his work affairs to the hospital room in order to take care of the ill Felix? Please answer with yes or no.”
“Yes.”
